Horses for Our Steam Fire Engines.

To the Editor of the Pacific Commercial advertiser !:
S1R-As there is every probability of Honolulu
it may be found too heavy to drag about by manual
power; it would be we'll, l think for our legislators
to make q law similar to that now in existence in
st. Petersburg, which is That when a horse runs
away, the carriage is confscated, the horses are
taken for the use of the fire brigade, and the driver
or owner is fined by the authorities" As the
Chinese will be the first to introduce '' steamers -
on this Island, 1 trust our Insurance Agents will
not be behind-hand in furnishing another, for they
are the only ones who are directly interested in the
protection of property from fire, and therefore
should procure proper appliances. Although the
government and citizens have hitherto provided the
city with the engines, ETC., now in use, it is unrea-
sonable to expect them to import 1" steamers " while
Insurance Companies reap the sole benefit.
Yours, SC, OSE OF THE BOYS.

RAMIr.-It is said. that Don Manuel OEtega Gar
cha (of Mexico) is obtaining splendid results in his
workshops in the manufacture Of textures of the
so-called vegetable silk, extracted from the ramie
plant. What has become of the efforts made here
some years ago to introduce the cultivation OF this
plant? We hope sufficient INTERCEPT may be felt by
some of our enterprising business men to induce
them to make inquiries as 10 Mr.sGarcia's method
of manipulation which has led to his reported sue
cess. A little knowledge on this point Is all that
we require for turning the cultivation OF the ramie
plant into u source of great public benefit. The
great trouble heretofore has been in the cost OF
nreparing the raw plant for manufacturing pnr-
noses. We still think Coleman's machine is the
one best adapted to overcome this difficulty.
