Tb his Honor the Mayor (jud Ai of the City Council. GEKTX<BHB2*: Your Commi Fire Department, to whom ' ferred a petition, signed "Fir i calling the attention of Connell to a ? anrer mode of making the alarm in caso of fire, thitn the one now in ose;, your committee are well aware of the faults, in the present arrange? ment of spreading the fire ul or ru, the present tower being too low, and not situated in a commanding position ; but the finances of the city forbids the outlay that would be necessary to build a tower of sufficient height and strength to answer tho purpose; your committee would recommend that his Honor consult with the President and directora of the Charlotte and South Carolina Railroad, also the officers of the South Carolina Rail? road, for the purpose of aiding thc authorities in thia matter. . A watch' man is on duty at those depots, whe could ring an alarm, agreed upon it case of fire, which would materially assist in spreading the alarm, so tba it could be heard in the difieren portions of the city; a timely alaru may often save a large amount o nroport ? Some change ?rc?i ILo uu< now is use is absolutely necessary, o at all vents, some assistance fron other sources. A bell might be pro cured at a small outlay for the pul pose, and suspended on the Stat House building, where a wutchma: is always in attendance, and cou! readily assist in spreading the alarm If such an arrangement meets wit the approbation of Council, a cod of signals could be arranged betwee the main bell and the others, thf would prevent confusion and unneoei sary ringing. Your committee woul further report, that the Fire Depar ment of the city consists of but tv? regularly organized Fire Engir Compauies, namely: the Palmetl and the Independent; the foran commanded by Capt.

Some $800 to $1,000 required to finish the said buildin to make it available for tho uses of t company. It is tho opinion of ye committee, that an appropriation that effect should bo made. Soi repairs is also necessary on their < gino-in other respects, the compa is in good working condition. T. Independent Company are also ere ing a building for housing their ? parntus, which will soon be rc.dy that purpose. This company has o made strenuous extertions to pl herself buck in her former conditi and is now ready for active dc Tho hose of this company is go but not suflicieut, being only feet, where 1,000 is requisite. * Palmetto's hose is not of the bet neither in quantity or quality. Y committee would parnestly call attention of Couucil to the fact, I the Fire Department of this costs less to the city, than that of other city or town on the contini it has been kept up by the pro worthy and patriotic members of several compauies, and seldom 1 they called upon the city authori for assietauce.
