MEETING AT THE WATER WITCH HOUSE,
LAST EvENING-ADoPTIoN OF A |
BADGE.
The Firemen's Convention, consisting
Of delegates from each company in the
city, met last evening at the Water Witch
engine house, Chief Engineer Hanna,pre-
siding. To-. '.I1- H....l
Upon the call for the reports of the del
egates from the different companies in re-
lation to the action of the companies on
the resolutions adopted by sub-commit-
tee Of the convention. and approved by
the latter, it resulted as follows; The Re-
lance had adopted the resolutions, but
could not tell the number of badges that
they would need. The Washington adj
opted the resolutions, and would probab-
ly want so badges. The Water Witch
adopted the resolutions, and would take
| IS badges. The Phoenix adopted the res
olutions, and would need % badges. The
Delaware adopted the resolutions upon
the condition that City Council would
bear expenses of the badges, the number
Of which had not been decided upon. The
Weccacoe and Fame had adopted the res
olutions, but did not know how many
badges would be needed. If ..r
The Friendship was not. represented
owing to the delegates of that company
being called away on business, but the
convention was informed that the compa-
ny had adopted the resolutions. t.
Chief Hanna showed to the convention
badges of the Reading, Pa, and Oswego,
N. Y, departments, but it was decided to
adopt the old Philadelphia badges.
1t was decided by motion that the num-
bers Of the badges should commence at
100; each company taking hundred tc
run upon, that is, each company to begir
at 100, 200, or 300 and run upwards.
II Fred Bush moved that committee o.
, three be appointed to wait upon Council
and present the action of the convention
and ask to have an ordinance passed
making it misdemeanor, punishable
with fine, for any person to counterfeit
t the badge or toappear within certain linn
its at fire. The motion was adopted
and Messrs. Bush, Thomas and Blak'
G. were appointed.
Mr.. Thomas thought that reporters O
the city papers should be allowed to hav'
{ badges for the purpose of appearing at
a fire. The question was fully discusse'
: and all seemed favorable to it. MI
: Thomas moved that the words, sand tn
n reporter of the city papers" be added t
the report to Council. Adopted unani
mously. Mr.. John Carpenter though
that the bell on the city hall was nuis
= ance, and should be recast.
L Mr.. Thomas thought that 1t was tn
J, watchman.
J, A long discussion ensued, some think
,, ing the bell was not hung right, and 9th
ers thinking the watchman did not strik
:, it hard enough.
Hugh O'Brien moved that the commit
tee present the matter to Council, askin
them to have the bell fixed so that ther
/ would be an increased sound.
. On motion adjourned to meet at tn
: call of the chairman.

WASHINGTON. March 22.-Gen. Grant
proposes to leave here on Saturday for
St. Louis, and after spending several
weeks there he will return to Wash
ingten. He had taken passage in one
of the Inman steamers from New York
on the 10th of May for himself, Mrs.
Grant and U. S. Grant. Jr. Since he
engaged his passage the American
line at Philadelphia has rendered to
him passage in one of their steamers,
and he says that he may conclude to
accept, as he feels that he ought to go
over in an American vessel. In con-
versation to-day he said that if he had
not kept troops in South Carolina,
Florida and Louisiana the democrats
would have had no trouble in secur-
ing all of those States. he thought
the appointment OF a commission to go
to Louisiana was a very good thing,
and he expressed the belief that the
result of it would be the recognition
of Packard.
