Communica- j tion ordered on tile. The'Prof. askel that ' the Secretary present tothe Fountain Hose I Co. his irratetul annreciation of their manv ! kindnesses, and also heart-felt w ell-wishes for their future prosperity, that he would ever look back with piide to the members w ho, under the most extreme dirlictilties, guided "T. e Ship of State" as to come out victorious in this, that thev kept the com panj' at the head of the ranks, and showed their vim on many occasions when prop erty was the prey of the destroying ele ment, tire. The matter of exempt eeitificates was introduced, by the exhibiting of a sample one, sent from New York. Various mem bers spoke of the design as not Iteitig the kind desired bv the members. After var ious remarks upon the matter, it was or dered that the Secretary procure samples of different designs, either from Portland, San Francisco or New York, and that he receive pay from the company for his ser vices in procuring the same. It was also ordered by the company that the Secretary receive pay for his services as secretary of the company; that he re ceive the sum of one dollar for each regu lar meeting, and fifty cents for each special meeting. A question arose among the members of the company, that "Madame Rumor'had it that the City Fathers had expressed un easiness in regard to the Fire Department, that they had been endeavoring to arouse them to action. The coin pan v has this to say in regard to inactivity : That thev are in good spirits, and entertain no su liidea as yielding up the ship. Yet, while they may have cause to complain of certain things, they lo not propose giving up the command. Our motto, which can he seen tv visiting our rooms, is, "We Never Yield." Tiie coin nan v numbers 23 members, 1m Hg w ithin two of the limits of the law, all in good standing, and active members, who always respond to the call of the bell. If the City Fathers think that we are not alive and up to action, let them visit our rooms on nights of meeting, and thev may hear something of interest. A. C. Baiuky, Secretary F. 11. Co.
