The Fire Brigade don’t hide their light under a bushel. The Secretary seems fond of staining paper, and an individual styling himself “ a member of the Eire Brigade ” called attention to the funds of the Brigade, also making reflections on the support given by the public. Now, allowing that the Brigade is a most meritorious body, and that they have done all sorts, of good service, and that the Secretary is a particularly painstaking and energetic officer, I can’t see but they have been fairly treated by the Borough Council, and-the howl made by one or two growlers does not by any means represent the feelings of the Brigade. 'I enquired into the subject, and I find that on the whole this useful body is quite satisfied with the Borough; but one of the members, Bay Chispa, is not content with having tunics provided, but also wants trousers, boots, washing, and beer provided by the Council. This is, I think, beyond the requisitions necessary to bo levied on the Council or the insur ance companies. Chispa.
