ances, will not ask TO be admitted TO the
National Guard, but will arm and equip
itself. Some hing of sensation may be
looked for when the new Zouaves first ap-
pear in public. They expect to go the

That False Alarm.

10 The NeaDs:
I humbly ask for little space in your
paper that / may express my disapproba-
ton of the asinine exhibition of authori-
ty (which authority / question: exercised
by the chief of the Fire Department, on
Saturday night last, in sounding a false
alarm of fire.
For what purpose it was done l cannot
conceive, as it could not in any manner
show the efficiency of "the boys" in get
ting into service, because no service was ex-
pected and as to how quickly they could
respond does not need any demonstra.
ton, as that fact always speaks we'll for
itself when occasion demands it.
If the chief can get any satisfaction in
demoralizing trade and alarming the peo-
pie, he must have very peculiar ideas as
to the proper fitness of things. If he can
see any fun in causing every person who
happens to have any interest in the loca-
ton indicated by the taps to imagine his
home in flames and the lives of those
left behind in jeopardy. if this is his idea
of fun, the sooner he is deposed from
office the better.
The firemen's motto of Tuebor Il will
protect is a noble one, but is action OF
this kind in consonance with 1t / think
not. 1t rather savors of the medieval
ages when those in authority terrified
and awed their subjects, that they might
have proper appreciation of their won
derful majesty, might and power.
The efficiency of the department can
not be advanced in any such manner, but
on the contrary it will be seriously re-
tarded. It is to be hoped that the fire
men. at their meeting on the 18th, will
impress in no uncertain tone their disap
prevail of such business and emphatically
forbid repetition of it. CoRRIGENDA.
