The following report was recieved by the Chief Fire man, in response to a resolution passed at the last re gular meeting of the Board: „ Savannah, May 30, 18C6. To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen of Abe city of Savannah: Gentlemen:—Under resolution of Council, passed at its last regular meeting, you requested that I should give a statement of the number of engines that could be disposed of with safety, and without risk of loss to the citizens of Savannah, I would respectfully report that there is at present five hand engines in Firemen’s Hall that can be disposed of immediately, without incurring auy risk to the property of the citizens of Savannah. We have, in addition to the engines above described, five good engines in service, besides a large quantity of old hose. I would again recommend that the city adopt th’e steam system, as recommended in my last re port. The sale of the hand engines now belonging to the city, I think, will pay the cost of two steam en gines. I beg leave to bring to your notice some lots set apart by the city for the purpose of building engine houses. In disposing of those lots it would place a sufficient amount in the treasury to order at once the fire engines requested. Very respectfully, C. C. Casey, Chief Fireman.

To Finance .Commit tee. deer## of the Mayor’s Court without first calling at the office of the Clerk of Council, paying the fine im posed, and receiving thereafter an order of die- charge for the prisoner from the proper eource. Timothy Flaherty and Michael Murphy were in like manner sentenced to imprisonment on the 14th instant, for a period of ten days. On Monday last, the 21st inst, Mr. Russell called at the Exchange and urgently insisted on the immediate release of the parties named. The request was not complied with, it being deemed inexpedient to order a discharge of the prisoners without an investigation into the merits of the case. On the 23d inst the City Marshal was instructed to visit the Jail and report on the prisoners confined there and especially upon the two men Flaherty and Mnrphy. The Marshal reports that they were not in the Jail having been discharged as al leged by Mr. Russell, only a few minutes before his arrival. Their terms of imprisonment did not expire until the following day, 24th inst. The subject is res pectfully submitted to you for your information and action. Your ob’t serv’t. Edward C. Anderson, Mayor. Mr. Russell appeared, and by permission, was heard. He justified his conduct by stating that what he had done in the discharge of prisoners was sanctioned by custom for years past; that the Ordinance requiring him to make monthly returns of receipts at the Jail did not discriminate between fines paid under sentences of the Mayor’s Court and other moneys coding to the hands of the Jailor; and he disavowed any intention to violate any rule or Onlinanee. After hearing the Jailor’s explanation and some remarks by Ex-Mayor Arnold and Hon. Julian Hartridge, who had been summoned as witnesses on behalf of the Jailor, and a statement by the Corporation Attorney as to his views of the case, the Board decided that Hie Jailor, had not been guilty of malpractice, his conduct being justified by past usage. Whereupon, the following resolution was offered by Alderman Schley, which was adopted: Resolved, That the City Attorney draft an Ordi nance defining the duty of the Jailor, and that hereaf ter no prisoner committed from the Mayor’s Court shall be discharged until the fine is paid into the Clerk’s office, and an order for release obtained from him.

T HIS Invention consists of Duplex (or twoj Ellptic Pure Refined Steel Springs, ingeniously braided tightly and firmly together, edge to edge, making the toughest, most flexible, clastic and durable Spring ever used.

The wonderful flexibility and great comfort and pleasure to any lady wearing the Duplex Elliptic Skirt will be experienced particularly in all crowded Assem blies, Operas. Carriages, Railroad Cars; Church Pews, Arm ChairB, for Promenade and House Dress, as the Skirt can be folded when in nse to occnpy a small place- as easily and conveniently as a Silk or Mnslin Dress.
