The Fire Alarm oUest;on.

To the Union and American:
In your criticism yesterday of the Nav
sr's reasons for v%etOing the fire alarm bill
YOU said:
l "The alarm telegraph can be very well
done without for a few years, and mean
while a fire may break out 1T any moment
which viii destroy half the city,"
But what of Chicago and Boston?
They had the telegraph, but it did not save
them. So the half of Nashville might he
swept eff in spite of the alarm.
l lit is perfectly natural that the insur-
ance companies should refuse to aid the CITY
in carrying out a measure that will mate
rally reduce their business
No catching old birds with chafE. They
refuse TO contribute money because they
know fires will happen, telegraph or no tele-
graph. They know that sensible property
holders will not permit the alarm telegraph
to keep them from inSuring.
3. 1.-The expenditure asked for amounts
TO but $1,000 at this time, not a cent of
which is TO be taken from the present reye-
nue. of the city,"
Beans, boiled, roasted or baked, are
beans still. What matters it whether the
money comes from the people directly or
from the revenues? Do not the revenues
come from the peoples pockets?
+. Not a line in opposition to the fire
alarm telegraph enterprise has been sent to
any of the city papers"
l believe the people of Nashville are op-
posed to the project. Engrossed in their
daily occupations, they often neglect to dis
cuss city affairs to their great injury. The
consequence is that the party interested get
the start, as they have done in the present
instance. The Mayor did his duty in veto
ing the bill on grounds of economy. He
proposes to eXpend S22,130 in purchasing
another engine. If the necessity for an
other engine exists, let it be procured. 1t
would eXtingUish a fire, and the alarm tele-
graph would not. Lea economy rule the
hour. S. /. S.

SHOOTING AT LEBANON
= Ci1Ize MOrtaIIy wounds n Law
Student.

Student.
\ horrible affair occurred at Lebanon on
Thursday morning, which will probably
result fatally. A young man named j. X.
Breckenridge, a law Student, and a son OF
the late Rev. DIR. Robert j.. Breckenridge,
the distinguished Kentucky divine, and
brother of Col. w. c. Is. Breckenridge, OF
Lexington, was shot by John l.. An
derSOn, a son of DIR. j. NJ. Anderson.
Mayor of Lebanon, and one of the most
prominent citizens of that place. Both
were young men of disSipated habits, and
they had been drinking together du-
ring the day. 1t appears, from what
We can learn, thai Breckenridge
gave a wine dinner on Wednesday.
TO which Anderson was invited, but
who did not attend. The parties after
wards met on the street, and Breckenridge
asked why he had not been present. An
alteration ensued, but the matter was af-
forwards amicably adjusted, but il seems
that Anderson again sought TO renew the
difficulty, and Breckenridge attempted to
avoid the ~rencountre. Finally, about II
O'Clock that night, wednesday,, the two,
with two friends, entered q saloon together,
apparently on amicable terms. Soon after
they had taken two or three drinks, how
ever, a quarrel arose about AL umbrella,
but as TO the nature of this alteration, or
which was tc blame, we have no particulars.
The dispute was terminated and the matter
adjusted, when Breckenridge asked Ander-
son TO take a drink, to which the latter
consented. An instant afterwards the bar
keeper, who had stopped down 10 draw some
wine, heard a shot, and Breckenridge fell.
Anderson had placed a pistol to his head
and fired, the ball penetrating the left tenn
pie and entering the brain. Breckenridge
was taken to the Lee house at once, and
surgeons summoned. He was alive when
the train left Lebanon at 3:45 yesterday,
but il was not thought that he could live
throughout the night.
Anderson had disappeared Immediately
after the shooting, and had not been
arrested at our latest advices. -

To the above Capt. Ryman responded,
accepting the handsome present, which he
promises TO have floating in the breeze this
evening before the departure Of his craft
from this port. In his letter Of response
he expressed the hope that our tobacco
merchants would at an early day see The
great necessity of building two large ware
houses, and be able to control not only all
the tobacco on the upper Cumberland, but
bring it up the river and from every direc-
tion. The revival Of Che trade has done
much to increase the commerce and trade
of Nashville and bringing persons here who
never visited our market before. The
planter follows his tobacco, and when sales
are effected, leaves the money in Nashville
for supplies, which formerly was expended
in New Orleans. f
