EYILNGTLSHING ELRES.

Three years ago the Chief of the London
Fire Brigade visited this country on tour of
inspection, and investigated the systems and
practical working of the fire departments in
each of our large cities, proposing to learn
from us whatever was new and useful in these
matters. As a visitor we treated him, prOba
bly,. pleasantly enough. AT all events we "ex-
"hibitedn before him; we had false alarms
sounded, and men and engines summoned,
and water thrown ad Ebitum on lofty build
iDgs that were not on fire-just to show what
we could do. And there's no doubt that we
"dd ourselves proud" then as we shall not
again for some years; at least not until we
have forgotten Boston and Chicago. But
when Capt. Shaw went home and wrote a
book about us, bluebOOl though it was,
and strictly confined to fire business we did
not feel so cOmplacent about 1t. We re-
marked-at least some of our contemporaries
did-that this was always the way with
these foreigners after they had been
well treated here. We did MT take the lecture
that he read us into any consideration Well,
it is not too late, while yet we have three
OF four large cities left unburned, to learn
something from this expert who came here to
BILE now. lie said that we had excellent steam
fre-engines and a superior fire alarm teie
graph but, with the invention of these, our
progress slad stopped. He more than intimated
that our management was inferior to our in
genuity. He declared that our fire departments
were too much dependent upon local politics
that men were selected for the service with
little regard to experience and fitness; that
the organization was not of the strictest; that
while the system provided for the application
of large quantities of water when its opera
tiOns were fairly under way, it failed in the
sine qta non of the business-in getting water
on the fire during the first few minutes after
its discovery.
He was right Moreover, except in the two
inventions which he named, the world has
made little progress in the methods of extin
guishing fires since 1Iautsch of Nuremlerg,
somewhat more than two centuries ago, made
tho first modern fre-engiRe, which threw a
one-inch stream so feet high, using. leathern
hose. which had first come into use about 100
wears before. Since then the efficiency of the
hand-enRine has been somewhat but not very
greatly increased, the best of them being able
TO throw a stream of similar size TO more than
double that hight, but only for brief squirt,
not continuously. To certain extent even
these inventions had been anticipated Before
the Christian era, Ctesbius, the inventor of
the clepsydra, constructed q dOuble-aeti0n
force-pump; and hose formed of the intestines
of oxen carried water forced to the upper
stories of lofty structures in flames. Augustus
had a well-organized city fire department.

NOT studious recluse who shrinks
from the curious gaze of the multitude
and tho din Of combat; but he gl0ries
in n fight, and never seems 30 comfortable as
when he is breaking somebody's head. IN
several respects the two champions a,O well
matched. Mr. FrOude ia an admirable repre-
sentative of the Englishmen who subdued
Ireland, depopulated her fahest territories,
crushed her national church, and nave heid
the island for 700 years IN uneasy subJection.
He speaks for those who believe tho conquest
justified and tho English rule blessing, for
those who Look upon the Irish as an inferior
race. incapable of selfg0vernment and not to
be encouraged when they claim the same po-
litical privileges as other people. Father Burke,
on tho contrary, is typical lrishman OF the
best class, eloquent, learned, patriotic, and de-
voted TO the creed which has influenced so
strongly the Irish character and Irish history,
and which Mr.. Froude 80 cordially detests.
The people Of the United States, who are in
vited to be the judges of this debate, will fol-
low both sides with the deepest interest.
1t may be doubted, however, whether the
English people will be grateful to their cham
piOn for his rather Quixotic enterprise. lie
has como nero 10 convince us JnaJ our Synlpa-
thy for Ireland has been misapplied, and the
result of his endeavOr may perhaps be to
arouse a warmer and more general sympathy
for that unfortunate country than We ever
felt before. We will not say that his lectures
have intensified the hatred of Irish Americans
for the English nation, for that feeling was
already as strong as it could be; but they
have revived controversies upon which prudent
Epglshmen prefer to be silent, and have re-
suited in teaching native Americans more about
the real grievances of Ireland than they knew
before or were likely ever to learn from St.
Patricks Day OratiOns and Fenian manifestoes.
Father Burke speaks through the press to all
the people of the United States. Wherever
the English historian goes, the fOrcible words
of the Irish orator will follow bim,-nay, the
Dominican preacher has already spoiled the
disposition of Mr.. FrOude's audiences in many
of the cities which he has still to visit. If
there is to be frank discussion of the diff
ferences between Ireland and England, there
can hardly be a doubt about the verdict OF
any impartial community 1t is useless TO de
fend the past. The most that a patriotic En-
lishman can now do is to reform the present.

scene of the French domination In Canada
was enacted just outside the walls, and one OF
the most gallant enterprises of the American
Revolution came to disastrous end on the
slope of tho steep bank just out of the range
of these guns.
Well, if Quebec will sacrifice all these as
sociations for the sake Of few modern
houses, that is her affair, not ours. She may
pull down the walls, and put in the place OF
them bran new desirable residences with all
the modern Improvements. She may bulld
herself o lecture-rOOm and confechoners
shop and dry goods palace, and lager
beer brewery, and get to be in little while
as prosaic as Hamilton and Toronto. But
when she becomes fine and fashionable we
shall 90 no more to see her. and there will be
nothing but her commerce, such as it Is, to
remind the world that Quebec still exists.
The Patriarch, in Little DOrrit" was
most venerable old gentleman while he wore
long gray locks and q broad-brmmed hat (;
but as soon as his hair was cut and his head
uncovered, everybody found out that he was
hard featured and vulgar old scoundrel.
SO Quebec may discover, when she has mod
ernized her dress and swept away her an
tiquitles, that mankind will look upon her as
mean and uncomfortable little place after all.
New-York tribune., 1872-11-16
4 SMALLER VorE AND GREATER MAJORITY.

A SMALLER VOTE AND GREATER MAJORITY.
The election returns begin to present a curl
Gus subject for political speculation. 1t seems
likely to turn out that Gen. Grant, nOtwith-
standing his overwhelming majority, really re-
ceived fewer votes in 1872 than in 1868. The
negro vote, being now first fully counted in
Presidential election, is of course excluded
from the comparison.
The population of the United States must
have increased nearly three millions, IN the
last four years and the 1ull vote which
Presidential election draws out should natu-
rally show an increase of not less than
eight per cent over the vote of 1868. If
Gen. Grant were only relatively as strong
as in 1868, his vote then should be eight per
cent heavier But his majorities are SO much
increased i'll the different States, and he makes
80 nearly q clean sweep of the States, that his
aggregate vote would seem sure to be vastly
greater Yet the returns tell a curiously differ
ent story.
In his own State of Illinois. for example, he
has actually fewer votes than were cast for
him in 1868. The official returns are not yet
all in, but those received all point in that
direction. In New Hampshire, he had 3S,l91
votes in 1868; in 1872, he has but 1926. In
Vermont, he had 44,1G7 in 1868; in 1872, he
has but Al, ,47j. In Connecticut, he had 5O996
in 1868; in 1872, ne has 5000.
PENNSYLVANIA affords still more suggestive
figures. In 1SGO it gave Lincoln 26S,O3O votes
In 1854, it gave him 296,3U. In.16GS it gave
in the October election 331, ,416 for the Repub-
hcan State ticket, and, month later, 342,2SO
for Grant. Instead of increasing about 10000
as would have been natural il the parties
had renamed about relatively the same,
the vote of Hartranft only rose in
1872 to 3j3,387, While the vote for Grant actu-
ally fell oil in November to 349,5S9, or barely
seven thousand more than in 1868. And yet,
with this fallng-Off in his vote, Grants major
ity was nevertheless swelled to over hundred
thousand more than Hartranfts.
In New-Y ork the returns do not yet permit an
accurate statement. Gen. Grants vote IS
probably slightly heavier than in 1868, but by
no means up to the natural increase. lie
gains in the cities, (where the Tweed and
OBricn regime i'll 1853 stuffed ballot-bOxes0
and falls off slightly in the rural counties.
w-Jersey alone appears to show gain equal
to the natural increase.
Fewer people voting for him, and yet a big
ger majority,-that seems to have been the rule in
Gen. Grants last election. We do not believe
that the significant fact will be lost either
upon the President himself, or upon the
shrewd and able men who have directed his
canvass.

THE DISSERTATION or QUEBEC.

It il reported that Quebec is about to pull
down its ramparis, throw its citadel into the
river. remove the gates which still picturesquey
obstruct its precipitous streets, and obliterate
the last traces of the martial grandeur which
make it to day one of the most attractive cities
in America The time TO be sure has long
passed away when the frowniDg Notifications
could be expected to menace anybody. The
guns have been rusting quietly this many a
yesr behind the parapets. The solitary piece
of Ordnance which bOOms twice day from the
corner of the citadel serves only TO mark the
true time for the shippers in the river below.
The esplanadc no longer CLEANS with red coats
and bayOnets, but nursemaids and perambula-
tors till it Of q morning and spOOny young
people seek it at sunset to whisper soft non
sense in the face of that magnificent prospect
which is perhaps unrivalcd on this side of
the Rocky Mountains Since the garrison has
been Withdrawn the bOmp and circumstance
have faded. The fortress has grown shabby.
The parade ground is not over clean. The
volunteers, who do duty by turns In manning
tho citadel, strew the historic structure with
tomato cans and broken bottles. The store
houses look dismal and ont of repair. The
sally ports arc ohaSe1 with rubbish, and the
casemates are rather uDtidy tenements. But
evon in its neglect the'fortrss of QuebecSs a
monument of American history which every
intelligent traveller must look upon with in
terest. The tourist who lands at the wretched
little wharf and climbs the rocky road to the
upper towp, past ridiculous old gables, and
under stone archways, and beneath the
quaint facade of the ancient church of
N6tre Dame, with the guns staring at
him through the embrasures, can easily fancy
that he has gone back century or so in the
history of the world, and people these queer
streets with the forms of Champlain and his
companions, OF FrOntenac, and lberyille, and
De Vaudreuil. For the possession of these
ramparts, Wolfe and Montcllm and Mont

BEGINNING At PHILADELPHIA.

How the delegation of Pennsylvania poll
ticians went TO Washington and fell foul OF
the President, to demand the POst-Ofice in
reward for party services as told in Wash
ington dispatch, in one of the Administration
journals, illustrates the prevailing demOraliza-
ton about Office. That the thing should happen
at all is bad enough, but that it should be so
glibly exploited only indicates that public SEN
timent has gone down with the tone of the
public service. The party described as the
sharpest and ablest politicians OF Pennsylvania,
thirty in number, went to Washington III their
own special palace-car, travelling like semi
regal directors and dispensing a generous
hospitality" which means champagne and
whisky galore and this bOuntiful prOfusion
and other adjunets give token, it is said,
" that they intend to stay until their work is
done.n 1t is, in fact, notification that the
storming patty are provided with five days
rations, as we used to hear during the war,
and intend to bivOuaC in the enemy's works.
As the Senator in command termed it, it was
formidable demonstration.
Did ever a more striking illustration of pO-
litcal abasement come to light1 For these
men, travelling in a special palace-car,
with generous hospitality, full ranks, and all
usual appliances of an advertising show lex
ccpt "A brass band), were merely going to
Washington for one poor, solitary Office. 1t
would be comical if it were not pitiful
The Mayor presented the claims Of the favOrite
of this party of hOspitable travellers. They
were based on the fact which
nobly rounded the Mayors periods {:

keeping the Republican party in Philadel-
"phia together, which resulted in giving such
" a magnificent victory on the 9TH of Novcm-

Civil Service RefOmer is virtuous, shall the
Mayor and his party of hosptable travellers
have no more oflces7 But the President
seems really desirous to reform the Civil
Service. BY a felicitous combination Of cir
cumstances he is able TO preach that new gOs-
pei beginning at Philadelphia A better be-
ginning could not possibly be made. If the
row grows easier when we commence hoeing

THE IRISH DEBATE.

1t is fair TO presume that the great debate
between MIR. FrOude and Father Burke viii
pass through many phases of replication and
rejoinder before it il finally committed to the
dusty shelyes of historical libraries. Both the
learned gentlemen are in a measure pledged
to continue the discussion TO the bitter end.
II would have been perhaps reasonable enough
for Mr.. Froude at the outset TO insist upon
confning himself to the delivery of his ap-
pointed lectures, leaving anybody TO answer
them who had the ability and inclination
but he took the responsibility of noticing
Father Burke's criticisms upon one point, and
he viii naturally be expected now to give some
attention to the remainder. He has joined
issue with his adversary, and he must bear
the consequences. Nor have .wo any reason to
