An Unjust Charge.

An UnJust CnaTkc.
A disposition is manifested in some quarters 10
blame the police for the poor alarm Of fire yester
day morning. This is altogether wrong BY pro-
vision of the city ordinance, it will be found that
ringing the bells does not belong to the police.
The ordinance reads "On the alarm of fire, the
Marshal shall proceed, with such of the police as
may be needed, to the place Of fire, for the pur-
pose of preserving peace, removing disorderly
persons, preventing theft" &C. So that provision
should be made outside of the police for ringing
the bells, they held to their duty by the
dinances and cannot be in two places at the same
time. There are three night watchmen. Yester-
day morning one was over the river, one on Cush-
noe heights, and the other on Commercial street.
The latter on discovering the fire, ran to the Con-
gregatonal church, which he tried to open but
could not. lie then proceeded to the Baptist
church, which had been opened few Iinutes
previous, and the bell rang, by night compositor
from this office. The Waterman then went to the
scene of the fire, where his duty and obligation
called him. So it will be that an indiscriminate
blame of officers, who try to do their duty faith
fully, is unjust and ungenerous.

and silently crept from his house, determined to do
or die. Just as he came out, the parties in the
wagon drove rapidly away, and the director, sup
posing that they had secured the keys, banged
