Chief Engineer's Office, 1
Augusta Eire Department, V
Augusta, Dec. 28,1868. )
To Ills Honor the Mayor and
Members of City Council:
Gentlemen : 1 bear leave to report to your
honorable body that, on the3sih of December,
while running, in oliedlence to an alarm
of fin* [riven from the bell tower, the apparatus
of the Ilook and Ladder Company was render
ed entirely useless for service by running
against the stone pedestals supporting the irou
lions in (rout of the Globe Hotel, completely
destroying them and injuring the truck to such
an extent that it will require a complete rebuild
ing. 1 feel satisfied the accident could not have
been avoided, as a large number of persons were
standing at Ihe corner, and the truck being
under rapid headway rendered it necessary for
Ihe man guiding at the tiller to turn the wheels
towards the building, or put the persons in
danger o| injury by the rear .•( the ti ue.k strik
ing them. In trying I" avoid this, the rear
wheels were thrown against Ihe pedestals and
the truck broken. The apparatus has been lor
a long time in a very weak condition, and re
ported in my report Lo (lie Finance Committee,
December Veil, a* being almost unfit for tire
duly. The ladder* nave been for a long time
considered dang« r ms, tout (he use of them
lia* been dispensed \"ilh as much «s possible.
Owing to the crippled state of the City Trcas
-urv,U wax my ini: niTnn to use them as long as
possible, even at a great risk of Hie, before
asking a rebuilding of the entire apparatus,
hut now necessity compels something to be
dour to place the company in possession of a
perfect truck, as ii renders the entire Depart
inent incfli.'ient in its present slate. It is my
main d.-p.aid' lien in subduing tires in upper
stories of buddings, and without it much
properly may I e destroyed and lives lost. For
instance, (he injury by tUv to Mr. John Welsh,
December V'fld.n. m., witeti the use of ladders
wan indisprusilde. I would propn&s lo your
body I hat owing to the present condition ol
the City Treasury, an appeal be made to the
citizens of Augusta for contributions to assist
in rebuilding the apparatus, find that your body
sanction the same.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant.
J. R Pi att, Chief Eng. A. F. D.
After tlie reading nt the report,
Mr. fsoodii. il reported that the sum of SBOO
wa* in poMies-iion of the Chief from the sale of
old apparel ti*.
The Chief stated I hat the company haring
possession of the material sold expected to re
ceive the proceed* 10 assist iu the purchase of
anew engine.
Mr. Tint moved, that as the Deportment was
rendered inefficient l>y want ot the apparatus,
tba! the SBOO he applied to the purchase ol
another truck, which motion was carried.
Dr. Swinney, the Hospital Physician, re
ported fo’lows : During the past month
there have been S3 eases in the hospital, 57 of
which were discharged; 10 died and the remain
ing 15 are slill under care.

The same committee also stated that the
Military Council consented to pay Win. It.

Report received, and Ci.um il adjourned.
The Morals of Our City.—Under the pre
sent efficient city government, where every
officer knows his duty and performs it regard
less of the consequences and with perfect fair
ness and impartiality, we enjoy not only a far
heller administration of our municipal affairs,
but the community is rapidly being treed from
tiie presence of those worthless and wicked
men who, l.y their constant violations ot our
ordinances and laws, kept the courLs engaged
and tlie peace and quiet of our city disturbed.
Jtow, the knowledge, obtained in many in
-Blances by sad experience, that every wrong
doer will Ik*, summarily punished and visited
with the full penalties of the law, prevents
much crime, ami is rapidly tending to produce
a great moral change in onr midst. Asa wit
ness to the justness and truth of the above, up
to 6 o’clock yesterday evening not a solitary
ease of any public importance was brought be
fore any of our eily magistrates or municipal
officials. We trust the good work may con
tinue to develop and mature its fruit, and that
the time is «ot far distant when our criminal
dockets will he as “ virgin’s pages ” and our
municipal officers bold sinecures. Wheu this
desirable result shall have been accomplished,
we can proudly point to Augusta as be,ing not
only the most beautiful, hut what is far better,
the most moral city ol the South.
A Donation to the Poor.—Mayor Russell
this morning acknowledges the receipt of live
ear loads of cross ties, ID**., through him to
the poor of our city by «<>»■ J o ' l ’ l £; K,n P’
President ot the Georgia Railroad. This is a
very timely and opportune kindness, and re
flects much credit upon the Georgia Railroad,
which is not only one of our best id point of
accommodation, but is conducted upon highly
liberal principles, aud is ever regardful, when
possible, of the interests and prosperity of our
city. It is a charity well bestowed and one
that will bo most thankfully received.
Advantages of Crying.—lt has been .some
time since we indulged in the “ relief ” spoktn
of in the following, which we take from an ex
change, but wc think our recollection supports
the views therein expressed, and parents may
find much consolation by acting upon it, espe
cially at night:
“ A French physician is out with a long dis
sertation on the advantage of groaning and cry
ing in general, and especially during opera
tions. He contends that gioaning and crying
me two grand operations by which nature al
lays anguish ; tnat those patients who give
away to tbeir natural feelings more speedily re
cover from accident operations than those who
suppose it unworthy a man to betray such
symptoms of cowardice as to either groan or
cry.
“ He tells of a man who reduced his pulse
from one hundred and twenty-six to sixty in the
course ol two hoars by giving lull vent to his
emotions. If people are at ail nnhappy about
anything, let them go into their rooms and
romlori themselves with loud booboo, and
they will feel a hundred per cent, better after
ward.
“ In accordance with the above, the crying
of cbildreu should not be too greatly discour
aged.
“If it is systematically repressed, the results
may be Bt. Vitus dance, epileptic fits, or some
other disease of the nervous system. What is
natural is nearly always nseful, and nothing is
more natural than the crying o( children when
anything occurs to give them cither mental or
physical pain.
“ Probably most persons have experienced
the effect of tears in relieving sorrow. It is
even curious how the feelings are allayed by
the free Indulgence in groans and sighs. Then
let parents show more indulgence to noisy
bursts of grtel on the part of children, as well
as other persons, and regard the eves and the
month as the safety valves through wbiah na
ture discharges her surplus steam.”
Hot Supper at Aiken.— On the eve ting of
thc3Ut inst. our readers are promised a de
lightful time at Aiken, South Carolina, as
tbr-y will readily acknowledge upon reading
the notice in our columns this morning. The
Catholics of Aiken intend giving a hot supper,
having a Christmas tree, and some exquisite
music, and also promise an address from
Father Ryan, whose name itself is all potent lo
insure an audience and afford unusual pleasure.
Our accommodating and skillful Amateurs will
be present to perform some of their choice and
beautiful melodies. The object of tlie enter
tainment is to assist in raising funds to build
a Catholic Church at Aiken, and needs but to
tie mentioned to command the ready support
of our charity-loving people, whose hands are
ever open to appeals of this character.
A special train will leave the depot at fi, p. in.,
on Thursday evening, and return at 1:3 o’clock
the same night.
We hope large numbers ot our citizens will
attend. Tickets, which are only $1 for tin
trip, can be had at the stores of Messrs. Kenny
<% Gray, Gray & Turley, E. O’Donnell and
Mill larky Bros.
The AStna Life Insurance Company.—We
learn from the Macon 'Telegraph that a short
time since Mr. Franc 8. Burr, of Griffin, Geor
gia, was killed by the falling of a tree. lie
had with commendable forethought taken a
policy of insurance in the Hst.na Life for five
thousand dollars, about eight months before,
and now the widow is made comparatively
comfortable by the prompt payment ol the
amount by the Agent of the HUna, and thus
expresses her thanks :
Augusta, Ga., Dec. 16, 1868.
Mr , ( I V. Hams , (leneral Agent . lit n<i Life
Insurance. Cos., of Hart ford , Conn. :
Dear But: Please accept my thanks lor your
kindness and prompt payment, through your
Special Agent, Mr. 11. L. llickus, ol the $5,000
due on my late husband's policy of Lite In
surance in your company. Mr. Burr had been
insured but little over eight months, when lie
was suddenly killed by a tree filling on him
whilst out hunting ; but for his prudence and
forethought to insure Hits lile lie would have
left his family in very straightened cironin
stances, and I take pleasure in recommending
your company to all inleies'ed.
Resp* elluliy. your.--,
Mrs. Franc 8. Burr.
