v1Ro,stA CRY, May IS, 1873.

vIRo1stA CITY, May 10, 1873.
Ed. News: Having read the article
in your issue Of yesterday on tho
merits Of the Babcock Selfacting En-
CINE, I wish through tho columns Of
your paper to state facts. During my
visit to San Francisco some three
months ago, I saw the workings Of one
OF these engines at the burning Of
Sage's oil house, near the India Dock.
The papers Of the city were loud In Its
praise. The engine used was one be-
longing to tho Pacific Mail Steamship
Company.
Knowing Of their general adoption
and use In the Eastern cities, | agree
with you that instead Of purchasing
another steamer to be placed on tho
Divide, let the order be given for q
Babcock Engine. 1 am informed that
Que of the largest size can be delivered
here at a cost of about $3.50, which Is
much less than q steam fire engine.
In addition to Its being cheaper, they
require no fuel, are always ready for
instant use, so that In q majority Of
cases fires could be extinguished be-
fore the other could "take water"
Another great feature In favor Of
them, there Is no destruction or dam
age by water, the steam being held 10
the hose by a stop-cock at the pipe.
Money to purchase Of the engines
| believe can much easier be collected
among our citizens than for any other
kind Of fire apparatus. MERCHANT.

A DOUBTFUL NoMINATIoN. = Rev.
James Freeman Clarke, who has been
accredited with the odium Of having
nominated Ben. Butler for Governor
of Massachusetts, thus communicates on
that subject with the Louisville Cour-
ier-Jowaal:
"a little paragraph has been going
the rounds, saying I have proposed
General B. +. Butler as Governor OF
Massachusetts. I have only referred
to him once, and that was IN a sermon
preached In Boston on Fast Day. on
The Humiliation Of Massachusetts,.
In which | spoke OF the disgrace which
had come upon Massachusetts from her
treatment Of Charles Sumner, the con-
nection of her members Of Congress
with the Credit Mobilier scandal, and
their completely with the salary grab.
| then added that IL was understood
that a member from Massachusetts,,
who headed the foray on the Treasury,
had announced his intention Of being
the next Governor Of Massachusetts,.
II he succeeded In this. | said l hoped
he would not omit the word humilia-'
ton In his proclamation, TOR certainly
Massachusetts would never be- more
Inundated than by such an event. II
Gen. Butler and his friends regard this
as a nomination, they are welcome to
ik.b -
