The editor of the ESSEX COUNTY
HERALD, a weekly journal published
at Island Pond, undertook, short
time since, to organize q fire depart
ment, and with that worthy object in
view gave notice of meeting to be
held in the HERALD office. The ap-
pointed day arrived, but we regret to

solitary individual putting in an ap.
pearance. AS if in punishment fo1
this want of appreciation of the editors
public spirit, they had fire in that
village very shortly after, on which oc-
casion, as our contemporary remarks

the whole village turned out, and in
which they took the intensest interest y
The result, we are told, was the des-
truetion of the buildings, which might
easily have been saved, had the citi

journalistic sentinel. The editor is
Justly fired with Indignation. and the
opportunity afforded him for admin
istering u rebuke to the citizens fol
paying no heed to his notes of warning
and their indifference to the HERALD's
efforts in their behalf, have not beer
allowed to pass unnoticed. The re
proof is well merited. Perhaps afteI
two orthree more confagrations they
