We publish to-day an earnest ap-
peal from the foreman of one of our
fire companies. 1t is based on well
ground apprehensions taught by eX-
perience, and our council would do
we'll to take heed before it is too
late. Let us have some limit, how
ever small, and let the ordinance en-
forcing it be rigidly observed. The
disposition seems universal to leave
protection from fire entirely to the
iremen, yet the subscriptions neces-
sary for the purchase of the requisite
material grow slowly. In this our
citizens do themselves less than JUS
tice.

How the world has progressed within d
century George Washington, the first
President of the United States, never saw
a steamboat. John Adams, the second
President of the United States, never
saw a railroad. Andrew jackson the
seventh President, knew nothing about
the telegraph. Abraham Lincoln, the
sixteenth President, never dreamed of
such thing as the telephone.
