Be it ordained by the Mayor and Aldermen of the city of Savannah iu Council assembled, and it is hereby ordained by the authority of the same, That nineteen acres of the laud known as the Old Canton ment lately granted by the United States to the city of Savannah, bounded on the north by the southern lino of Gwinnet Street from Whitaker 8trect to .Montgomery Street, on the east by Whitaker 8troet up to Now Houstou Street, South by New Houston Street, from Whitakor 8treet to Montgomery Street, and west by tho eastern line of Montgomery Street, from llouatou Street to Gwiuuet Street be set apart as a parade ground for the volunteer companies of the city of Savannah, und he, and tho sume is hero- by dedicated to that purpose under tho conditions and limitations in this ordinance hereinafter con tained. And be it further ordained by the authority afore said, that the control, custody and management of naid parade ground shall be vested in the Captains, lor the time being, of the several volunteer compa nies of the city of Savannah, who shall have ex clusive charge thereof, subjoct nevertheless to the polico regulations of the city of Savannah. And lie it further enacted by the authority afore- said, That the grant of the aforesaid parade-ground and the dedication thereof is made under tho con dition that the several volunteer companies shall liavo tho said parade ground properly cleared, and a neat and sufficient fence placed around tho same within from the day of the dato of the passage of this ordinance, and shall always keep the same in propur order, and the fence in good aud sufficient repair, and in case of their failure so to do, or iu case they shall use or at tempt to use the said parade ground for other pur- pened aud to preveut ty will confine itself t perform its proper duties. Nothing can he dearer than that the city Council intended to confer absolute power on tho Savunnuh F ire Company, in relatiau to tho management and extinguishing of fires. The system is, your com mittee beliovo, almost universally approved of by their constituents. To say that this absolute power may not have been and may not hcreaAor he either ■wjww° r iicmcientlyused, would he to claim in- fallibility for all who may happeu to enter the rauks of the Savannah Fire Company. But this objection is Inseparable from, however delegated to any set of men, and would be as liable to abuse in the hands of n Board of Aldermen us iu those of the Savauuah r ire Company. It will ho seen that tho Legislature were 'also of opinion that tho power of tho Savannah Fire Com pany as fixed by the City Council, should uot he iu- terfored with, as .he Ogleglelkope Fire Company No. I, is incorporated in strict subordination to it, and to the City Couucil. Thu Savannah Firo Company must then see that its controllicv powsris not only not affected hut us actually confirmed by tho power of iho Legislature. fho Act constitutes “the two first officers of Oglethorpe Fire Company, No 1, ex officio addi• nefial members" of the Savannah Fire Company, line, it strikes your Committee, is but proper and just. By being additional members ’’ tho Legisla ture did not preclude the Savannah Fire Co. from keeping Us Bill complement of thirty-five members, *°r tho management of other engines. Tho chief officers of the Oglethorpe Fire Compa Hr’.i..°’r. 1 Li b r i y[ lhou ®*J* ccl « d to ok«y Ihe ordure or tho Chief Hromauof the Savannuh Fire Co., ought certainly to par icipate in the councils aud pluns of that Company, clso in time of emergency, they could not possibly curry them into effect.— They are, aud would be, amenable to the same pen alties un the officers of the other engines, aud should onjoy the same privileges. A reference to their charter will show that it re- quires that they shall “ faithfully perform the duties I 72f n » ttnd bn ,ub J® ct *° th ® direction of tho ° \ , 1 rc,nBn of the Savannah Fire Companies. Would not Savannah Firo Company No. 1, actu- either t*' 1 ,he ' r chartor llhou,d th ®y ceaso to do The officers of the Oglethorpe Fire Company No. I, thus admitted, would have no other privileges thnu any other members; hut being required to nor- form the same duties, they should not have less privileges. The objection raised against this, thut all the members ol iho Oglethorpe Fire Compauy might thus become members of the Savannah Fire Company is true, hut it would require a grea' length or tune to effect such nu end, aud it would effect no practical purpose, us each officer would cease to ho a member of the Savauuah Fire Company tho mo- k. u- ... offlcor of lhe Oglethorpe gross and Broughluu streets, said vorandah to he an wide as the stde-walk. of aaid streets, and to bo no! leM than twelve feet high above the pavement.

The Legislature empowered the city to orgunizo _ Fire Company by two nets passed respectvely the Dec. 2d, 1824, and Dec.2d, 1825. The City Council by an ordinance passed lUh Murch, 1825, organized the Savannah Fire Com pany. The fourth section of that ordinance reads follows..... The aaid Fire Compnev shall select from their •n body u chief aud such other officers us may up- pear to them necessary, und shall have power to moko and establish u system of bye-laws, which they may alter or amend nt plonsuro, for the man agemont and dircetiou of said company, Provided, such bye-laws ahull not bo contrary to this or any other ordinance.” The soventh section reads ns follows “ Tho said company shall be empowered to take charge of and to Lave the cure ana management of all the engine housos, engines, buckets, fire hooks, fire-hose, ladders, and other implements for extin guishinar fires, that now belong to or hereafter may be provided by Council.” By the eighth Section, “Supreme Command is delegated to the Chief Fireman, or his substitute of the Flremau, of all persona connected with Ihe fire department, and the entire apparatus that may be employed for the extinguishment of fires." Tho twelfth Sectiou says: Aad it shall be lawful for the Chief Fireman, or any of the members of the Fire Company, wbou a fire breaks out, to com mand uny person or persons to aid and assist in filling the engines with water, aud in conveying ** •aid engines und buckets to tho place or pin where tlio fire may be, aud to aid and assist extin guishing the fire under tho direction of the Fire- It will thus bo seen that tho Savannah Fire Com pauy has full and exclusive authority in tho premi ses, and that Council could not interfere in any mat ter of mere discipline.
