VESIEEPAY'S SCENE.-. The scenes at the market were a repeti tion of those on Tnursday. The hungry and destitute crowded through the base ment. and were fed the same as the day before. Tne work was under the direction of tbe special committee of tne City Council. At the United states barrack’s numbers were lodged and guarded by police. In. the burned district those who had suffered were searching and digging j among the ruins for lost valuables and j property, but the destruction was com plete and little was recovered. On many I lots the owners were prospecting and clearing away the debris preparatory to building new houses. THE RELIEF COMMITTEE. The eommittee met at the Long Room of the Exchange yesterday afternoon, and the various sub-commitees made reports of their work during the day. A large number of families and individuals had been aided, s-me provided with clothing, blankets, shelter, rations, etc., and the committees are now in good working or der. . , .. During the morning the sustenance Committee was at the market from 7:30 to 11 o’clock and enrolled all the applicants, after which thev were provided with a hot breakfast and one day’s ration*. The same committee will tain attendance this roorninz. when two days’ rations will be prov ided. to last till Monday, when the two committees will combine and furnish further rations and aid from the United States barracks. A large number of subscriptions to the sub-committees have been made both of monev. provisions and clothing, that have not yet been turned over, so that the com mittee cannot tell exactly how much has been subscribed. The pastors of the various churches were re quested to select two ladies from each of their congregations, to meet at { the Lecture Room of the Independent I’resbvterian Church to-day. and assist in the distribution of clothing, bedding, etc, THE RELIEF KIND.

T:..-r<- was considerable anxiety felt during the hre as to the water supply. In conversation with Mr. A. N. MiUer. -aperintendent of the W ater Works in regard to the service during the confla gration. that gentleman made some inter esting statements. He left the city to proceed to the works after he supposed the Fire Department had the fire enlirely under control. ••In crossing the canal bridee on my way." said Mr. Miller, "I observed the tire had freshened up among the build in-'-on the north side of the warehous.. and was fully convinced in my own mind that the conflagration would ta an ex tensive one, and would require all the water from the works capable of being given. Upon my arrival at 3 o’clock 1 f. ind the iarg- engine making 4T. strokes ;.er minute. Weeping up a steady water pressure of 80 pounds by the gauge. One or two of the laboring hands had left, and ti.c balance living in the threatened dis trict. as well as Mr. Metzger, the engi r.ccr in charge. He was allowed to leave, and 1 took charge of the engines myself, having but one fireman and carpenter left. -Finding the pressure falling. I placed two men on the fire and increased the -peed of the engine to 65 strokes per min ute. the pressure varying from 75 to 85 pounds. I made preparations to start up the smaller engine, in case we cou'd not keep up the pressure with the large ODe, which was then delivering 334.000 gallon* per hour, and at the rate ot 5.616,'XM) gal lons in twenty-four hours. The amount of water consumed surprised me. and I attributed it to the breaking or bursting of some of the smaller mains in the vicinity of the fire, and labored under that delusion until one of the firemen returned and in formed me that every fire plug on tbe Ocean Steamship wharf, cotton ware houses, cotton presses and rice mills were in full play, which accounted for the amount delivered per hour. This was within a few- thousand gallons of the capacity of the tank at the tower, holding 350,000 gallons. This will give an idea of the quantity used each successive hour, sav from 3 o’clock until 7. ‘•When the excessive supply had de creased at Savannah I was very anxious about the stage of the water in the river. In constructing the pump-well it was a great difficulty! owing to the quick-sand, to get it as low as was wanted. B/ per severance, however, we finally reached 5% feet depth ot water in wells below low water mark. The great anxiety of Mayor Wheaton and the Water Works Commit tee at the time the works were built was to guard against a combination of cir cumstances which, as one of the gentle men observed, might not occur in one tnousand years, but which was realized at the occurrence of Wednesday's tire. In a large conflagration, with strong west erly w ind and spring tides, which caused a very low tide in the river, at least two feet below ordinary tides, the well afford ed an ample supply.” Something About Our Fire Engine*. It is stated that the Waver Steam En gine was in good order during the late fire, but was not put in service because her wheels were varnished and not dry. The wheels were in a wheelwright shop not 150 yards from the engine house. The reserve engine. Jno. W. Anderson, and the Barton steamer are both in need of a thorough overhauling. Foreman Kollock. of the latter, says his engine is n'4, fit for service and liable to break down at anv time. From this, it would appear that there are onlv two steamers in good order, the Washington, and provided the wheels are ready, the Waver. A Freight Train Derailed. A down freight train on the Central Railroad ran off the track yesterday at the 100 mile post. The engine and a num ber of cars were derailed, bat it was learned that no one was injured. The accident caused considerable delay to other trains. Daily Steamer* for Florida. On and after to-day the Georgia and Florida Island Steamboat Company will run a daily line (Sunday excepted) be tween Savannah and Florida. The steam* ers of this company have been thoroughly overhauled and refitted, and now in first das* order. Tbe Florida wd* leave on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, and the City ot Bridgeton on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; arriving at Fernandina tbe next morning, where they make connection with railroad for Jack sonville.

THE CIT VS LIGHT Distribution of Lamps by the Mutual Gu Light Company The Electric Light >t So Bad After All. Mr. V. F. Thompson. Secretary of the Mutual Gas Light Company, with which the city has contracted for lighting the -treete. had a large force of w orkmen em f r jed yesterday in delivering and locat ing the lamps for the burning of naptha, w hich will be used for the present for illu minating purposes. The heart of the city was well lizuted last night. To-day the distribution of iamps will be continued, and all the thoroughfares will be iiluminated to-night. A telezram was received yesterday fr m the North stating that the material "necessary for earning out the work had been forwarded and was en route. The Mutual Gas Light Compa ny is working energetically and the city W iU be fully lizhted within a few days. The faint illumination along the busi ness streets was noticeable last night in contrast with the bright light of the elec tric lamps, and many who were foremost in condemning them were first to retract their hasty judgment and conclude that the electric light was not so bad after all. •ttartins; to Kun to the Fire. It was in Lowell, Mass. An alarm of fire was sounded, and tne engine was rap idly driven out of the engine bouse.

An Amllimmalad Firs DspamsMl Edit' - Mnrnlmy ymst: Thi writer, having labored long and earnestly in thought, word and writing for an im proved fire service, is glad to find the sub ject again engaging public- attention. Fully satisfied iq his own mind as to what is necessary in our case, the writer is yet happy to bear and disease any sugges tions that can ta offered. Replying to certain objections to a plan which has taeo before the authorities for tight years, it is only necessarv. in regard to the prin cipal objection, to’quote aanuni/ against himself. In the official proceedings of Council. February 24. 175. is an able and exhaustive report of a special com mi the namely. Gee. G. M. SotreL Messrs. Blair. Cutminzhaiu. Douglass and Lovell appointed to devise a plan for improving this service. The merits ot full pay, partial pay. and the volunteer systems, are fully treated. The former is declared too expen sive for oar 11 iiiiliftr the latter as inefficient, and of the partial pay service they say: -Eminent authority has se verely condemned it . and this plan is not deemed bv your committee as best.” After specifying wag. to them, appears ner-essary. thev sav: -Your committee believe that such a fir- service may ta re alized bv entrusting it to the city police, under one Clf with such modifications as are herewith expressed and may ta further suggested. * * * The present police force may ta safely trusted with this service.” On the 7th of April this report was called up for cor sidera fioo. The vote for the measure was Blair. Doogiasa, borreL, McMahon and LovelL Major Cunningham, an earnest supporter. atMl another member favoring the measure being absent, there was a tie. decided by his Honor in the negative, although seven of the board were then in its favor. In the oard of last year its supporters were eight against four. The assertion that it is essential for the commander of a department to know how to make and run an engine is not tenable, else it is equally necessary that President Raoul should ta able to take down and put together his own engines: that a commander of asteamshipmustfirst build his ship or that a Lee or Johnston must ta able to make a cannon, a musket or sad dle. Surely no man would vesture upon such assertions. There is something re quisite in a commander above and beyond the meenanical knowledge of his ma chines. The New York fire service, con fessedly the best of its kind in America, was organized, disciplined and perfected bv General Alexander shaler. an army officer, who very probably did not and d'- not know how to put together or make any two pieces of a fire engine, but he does know how to put men together, to combine and direct their energies to advantage, and to move and to govern the mass as one man by sheer force of will. Tnat is known as adminis trative ability, and that is just what our fire service needs. Tbe present Chief of Police is an admirable organizer and dis ciplinarian. Asa General of bi grade he has probably had command of thousands of men of all arms 14 actual -ervice. He now ha* command of some "5 or ta men. and to say that he cannot manage two or three dozen additional men upon a semi detached service is to insult his capacity. For the insurance men this writer has profound respect. Among them he is proud to number his best friends, and if any of these gentlemen M ill tell u, how leaving the present fire force intact and adding to each engine a half dozen men. whose daily business should ta to prac tice and perfect themselves in the duties and stations pertaining to a steam fire serv ice. just as men are numbered, sta tioned and drilled about a piece of artil lery. will "impair the efficiency of the sen ice.” then this writer is ready to bow down and exclaim admiringly: surely ye are the people, and wisdom will die with vou; and tbe insurance company that shall raise its rates for this cause will assuredly find itself without business, which might very likely prove "detri mental” to the agent of that suiciding company. R. RAILROAD RUMBLINGS. Bright Flashes of Intelligence from Near and Afar. Tae Western and Atlantic have com menced running parlor cars between At lanta and Nashville. The St. John’s and Lake Eustis Rail road will be completed to Lane Park, Fla., tatter known as Oxmore. in two or three weeks, and then the steamer Rosie will make two trips a day. The question of bonding Franklin county, Fla., for the purpose of building a railroad from Apalachicola to Mari anna. in Jackson county, is now under discussion in the section interested. The following is from the Orlando li*~ ,'rrttr: "A stock company has been or ganized at Apopka for the purpose of building a railroad from Clay Springs to Lake Apopka, and to establish a line of steamers on the Wekiva river.'* It is almost certain that daylight will shine through the Georgia Pacific tunnel next Saturday. There will then ta sc uttle work to do that the promise to send a train from Atlanta to Birmingham about the 17th. can ta easily made good. Work on the road between Coosa and Birmingham has been vigorously pushed. The Jacksonville //- mid has the fol lowing: -The Florida Central and Wes tern Railway are building anew side track from the Brooklyn bridge to Hogan street, between their present track and Bay street. It is also announced that the connection with the Fernandina Road is soon to ta made.and the passenger trains, instead of arriving and departing at its present depot, on East Bay street, will come and go from this new depot. This connection is to ta built north of the city, the line having already been surveyed for it. A union passenger depot is one of the great needs of Jacksonville.” BURNETT’S COCOAINE. rromote* a Vigorous and Healthy Growth of the Hair.
