This is a reform year for Majors. Wnlsrlf Wiluam Means should turn out to be Mayor himself, and hot the Mayor of somebody else The supporters- of the late Republican ticket In Columbus look very funny try-lug to discover what hurt them. SEjATtfa CoMKLWo might gracefully kick himself now for being coaxed Into support of Gakfield during the last campaign. Bismarck's physician says he must rest on Sunday and not attend church. Happy thought 1 Why cant the doctors take the Sunday question out of politics? Thsrx Is still some affliction In certain quarters because the next Mayor of Cincinnati was formerly a voter at Yellow Springs.

This is the very extremity of sadness. If the President has any regard for Hick sit loo per he should do something with Fosteb suddenly. Time flies. Much less than a year of the Gubernatorial term remains. MacVeaoh Is an awkward man to have in a Cabinet.

He was a long time getting into office, and when be finally got there he brought an extraordinary accumulation of importance. CoKKXtKa's Senatorial term expires in 1684. Perhaps it woolT be as well for him to be amiable with the President. Mr. Garfield may appoint men in New York -who will have influence with the Legislature.

Govebnor Fosteb has been giving an opinion as to the cause of the defeat of the Republicans at Columbus. But it is of no particular consequence. The Governor has been so buffeted In politics during a few months past that the wonder is that he has the cheek to say any thing. Tire result of the election in Steuben- ille is highly creditable to the citizens of that, city generally, and especially gratifying to the Democrats, who put. forward a man who not only held hia own party but commanded the support of the best Republicans.

The Republicans renominated Mayor ItvwiN, whose record had been ably overhauled by the Gazette, which was in the opposition to Iawta, and by tbe most induential Republican paper in tbe James Marion, the Democratic candidate, was elected because he was the best man for the place. The Gazelle generously divides tbe honors with the JPreas. Pay laa; Mutilate. The Senate of the United States has been in session one' month, and it has accomplished nothing. It confirmed the CaL-i-net appointments on the 5tb of March, as a matter of necessity and of course, arid ha? i dona nothing since.

Tbe Republican Senators seem determined that Mahokx shall be paid before any public business is done. Day after day the motion has been repeatedly made from tbe Deuiocratio side, to go into Executive session and attend to the public business which a Republican Presi- dent has laid before tbo Senate, and the Republican Senators have steadily refused to do this, and have insisted that Mahose must be paid before they will proceed to the public business. affairs of tbe firm, Mahosb A must be ad-Justed before the affairs of the United States can receive their attention. Mahonk A Co. Insist that the other half of the Senate shall cob tribute to the paymentrof Mahoxe, and the Democratic hair 'of the Senate, not being under any obligations to Mahohe, declined to make any payment to the Virginia member of this incongruous firm Mahobk A Co.

It re- quires astonishing assurance, on tbe part of Republican Senators to ask tbe Democrats to help them to pay Mahons: but because 'Democratic Senators refuse to "chip In" and help to settle with tbe Virginia renegade a distinguished Republican, Senator from chooses to call this refusal treasonable and revolutionary. It appears, therefore, that the Democtatie Senators are guilty of the Teryssenee or treason' If they will not asfcistitbe Republican Senators to recorn- penee the Virginia renegade for his treachery to the Democratic party. are not exaggerating misstating the record when we say that the Republicans in the- Senate are obstructing the public business for the sole p'urpose of their obligations to Mahowk, whose treason to hia party, hia constituents and his State they bought with tbe promise of a mess of pottage. -Senator IIawlet, of Connecticut, onwittinglyon- fwsed every thing to a representative of the ExQCtRsa on Saturday. The Senator said Ve organized tbe Senate in its Com-, niittees with tne aid of Ma honk, Now that we have got tbe organization, it ia not fair to adjoom and treat him with no He has a candidate for one of the places, and I think must, for our' word, as well as for general utility, go Here' Is a complete admission that the public business la obstructed by tbe Republicans for no other purpose than to pay Mahokk.

The Repobllcahs desire to make tba Democratic Senators a party to the corrupt bargain between themselves and the purchased Virginia Senator. The DemocrBt lo Senators have, ao far, refused to take any part in the in-'famy, and', do; not feel under ny cbligatl'ns to aid in keeping iy corrupt promise' RepuMican a tors have made to Mahone. of A Co. "vss t' 5 hive -loolxod far vr V. a contingency might arise in which it might be impossible for the Republican Senatorsthe "Co." of the firm to deliver the promised mess of pottage to Mabohk.

A simple count of tbe Senate would have revealed this fact, and If the partnership had been intelligently formed this contingency would have been discussed, and, in the terms of the copartnership, provision would have been made for it. If this was not done i certai ly was not the fault of the Democratic half of the Senate. Why should the Democratic Senators be called upon to supply omissions in this Iniquitous compact between Ma hone A Co. Why should the Democratic Senators be called upon to deliver the goods promised by the Republican allies of repudiation and treachery I it not the height of impudence to ask Democratic Senators to aid in any way to reward- the treachery of Uinoxlf Mi-hose'm treason stole the Senate away from the Democrats, and Bhould the Democrats be expected to recompense him for the robbery 1 The business of the Supreme Court and some of tbe Circuit Courts is so clogged as to be) several years behind. There ia a vacancy on the Supreme Bench which sbonld be promptly filled.

But litigation, justice, must pause in their tracks till Mahosb is paid. The President of the United States has sent to the Senate a large number of appointments scores of them of prime ini portance. Those nominations have accumulated to such an extent that the President will send no more tillthose already sent receive the attention of tbe Senate; and thus the "Executive Department of the Government stands fettered in Important respects becauso Mahone Is not paid. This is the beginning of a new Administration. The Republican party has the- Executive and tbe House, and the Republican party and Mahoxe have one-hair of the Senate, and the Republican party presents this spectacle to the country the spectacle of a great National party saying that the public business shall stand still It can pay a repudiator of debta and of honor for his great treachery.

The National Republican party takes the position before the country that the only business of the United States is to pay Ma HON B. Every day since this session began the Democratic members of the Senate have been willing; and eager to proceed to the public business; but they are hot yet willing and eager to assist in paying Mahone.

The matter or the Belt Railroad la one of great Importance, but -no more so nowibaa for years past.

But us we have said, neither tbe members of the Legislature nor tbe presa bas the time to overhaul and thoroughly a digest this measure of Mr. Ray's within the lew days left of his official life, and he should not fall to look at the fact, and weigh It, that the baker's dozen who are pushing tbe bill have a special personal interest induing so, and accordingly- have able representatives in the Columbus lobby, while, the thousands whose interests are general have as yet nad no sufficient hearing either before bis Committee or through the press.

Onr Impulse to action-- Tba danger oC our citizens. 8ach was the rallying motto of tbe banner of one of our first Volunteer Fire Companies in the City ot Cincinnati the Relief Fire Company No. 2 and we will take it as tbe rally ins; cry of all the, old votnntear firemen of onr eity.

His theme was a blgb, honorable and noble voiuutary employment a love's laborand It Is good and right and just tbat the old survivors of tbat worthy employment of ye ancient days should bo here assembled, la the majesty ot a banquet, to praise and do honor to tbe name and fame of tbe old volunteer firemen of ClucinnatL And we have cyosen an Important and famous day for our feast a day" of celebrated memory in the minds and hearts of our fellow-country men tbs birthday of the immortal Washing tonand yet fitted most pointedly to this celebration. For was it not the great fact tbat tbe same motive which animated the- soul ana controlled the conduct of tbe Father of his Country the spring of action of the gal lant volunteer fireman? Was not bis Impulse to action the danger Of our citizens, and was it not the same with tbe firemen? It is fit then for ns sorvivors lobe here together in peace and plenty, at this feast of good things, at this banquet of many memories nnd re vlving friendships, and It will be good for- us to recur, perhaps, to brief remfnlscnnees, to open the way of reviving memories for us and look" back upon the past, and see our seives something aa we were. -We will revive those times, and in onr mem ories Preserve and still keep fresh, like flowers in v. water, Those happier days." Our city-hud Its birth in the form of a plain.

roueh, one-story log cabin ou the banks of tbe Ohio River, near where ia now the north east corner of Main and Front streets, and from this very bumble beginning In tbe month of December, in tbe year 1788. has this city cruwn to what it is in the year 1831. The little village had an existence of fourteen years before tbe minds of tbe citizens began stall to be exercised by tbe danger of con flagration among their dwellings and stores. They had rested the very early settlers In tbe then village of Cincinnati until their dwell inns and other booses besan to number between two and three hundred, and tne oeoule near to a I bouand, before It ever entered their liracla that they might ail oe burned up some tune before, their time even nefore tbey were laid in their graves, in ISU2 there mimt have Iwen a firo, occurring somewhere In the village, 'which much alarmed the for then it waa that -wtb wise ueadsof the men incorporated town or cot together and paawed tho first fire ordinance of which we have any account at ail. That ordinance has been preserved in the eity archives, aud it enacted tbat every head uf a family ahould have a hues leathern Hre bucket hanging up conspicuously on the walls of bis Ikiuhc, to be iu readiness for use in tne event or casualty of fire, and providing against dangers of fire from carelessness and negligence of citizens under severe penalties.

But it was not until six years that there aeemed to be erealouVa easasjty. iw a flre-ensrine, and then. In the year tsOS, the Union Fire Company waa formed, comprising nearly all tbe yuung men of tbe town, and the Select Council procured them a baud fire-engine. But it was a had old affair, tbissec oud-baod engine from some city of the Eusk no doubt and Was given: np, and the Fire Company broke np, and again the town waa left without an efficient Fire Company or In 1813 another fire must bave happened In Cincinnati, tor then a second Fire company was organised, and the people were aaaeaied and Utxed for another nre-ngine. This proved to bo a tolerable engine, and was called the Washington (appropriate for this day and for us), and the organized company waa named Washington Klra Corapauy No.

1, aod now in tbla-year 0813) the ire Depart-men of Cincinnati consisted of this notable Washington Company and one engine and tne Fire-Bueket company. And it la most curious to observe that the latter was most necessary add essential to tbe former, for the men with the leathern tire-buckets supplied the men of tbe engine with their water. There waa no boae or hose-reela in those daya of yore uot ihouehtof. Iu 1618 another engine was ordered and mads' and another company was formed, this engine waa called the Relief, and ths company waa called the Relief Fire Engine Company No. This Relief engine, I believe, exists somewhere in tbts -city or perbApe elsawhere st this very lata day.

It waa a curious specimen of an engine, as all of ua here at the table will well remember a little rectangular box. open at top, works inside open to view, and five brakes on each aide. This was tbe company that adopted and acted upon the beautiful motto of our address, anil, aa ail of us know, waa one of the moat eBloent Fire Companies that Cincinnati ever had, and we are glad to have this opportunity of saying so. Honor lowborn honor is duel On Juneau, Will, tba Fire Wardens of Cincinnati were established. Thia year the town, with a population or more tiian ten thousand people, waa incorporated into a etty, and the Fire Department began to become a matter of importance.

These Fire Warden 'were the old respectable gentry of tbe city, and they formed themaeives into an efficient and effective Aaaociatton for protection of persons and property at fires, and Weil did they do at all umes of fire danger their doty. Their usefulness was proved through a long course of action and active service from the year 1819 to 1868, the days of tbs jtafrf Fire Iepart-menL About this time (1810). too, another Fire Engine-Company waa organised, 'which was cnlled Independence Company No. and they bad ths third fire-engine In the service. This engine, by the way, was furnished by the city, and therefore, although tbey named themselves and -their engtna independence, tbey were not Independent as they thought tbey were.

Another company was also at this time organised, and this was the Franklin Fire Engine and Hoae Company No-a, and In the luiMitli May, 1820. tuey were aneepted and. piaced iu the regular service of the City Council. This famous company occupied a house on the wear side of Hy cam ore. near Lower Market, at firsL In 1821 another house was provided for them on tbe same aqoare by tbe City Council at tbe enormous coat of S73.

It will be sweii tbat thiscompany first introduced the boae and the liosa-reel. They enanaed their name to tbe Eagle Fire Company No. 4. Thia company was composed of the moat sub-etaatiai citisensof thatdayt Moaes Lyon being Foreman and Jeremran Kierated Chief Engineer. In UUO tbe name Of the company was changed back attain lo "The Franklin Fire Engine and Hoae Company nd bad their enelne-honae on Sycamore street, between Sixth and Seventh atruets.

It will be, peruana, remembered by some that this company took the sobriquet of the "Roar a and Ready," and had an improvised-, rough-boarded, one-story engine-bouss Ou ths southeast -earner -of Byea more and Sixth streets called '-Roueh-and-Keady Hall." In l2f the Fire Department of Cincinnati consisted of four Engine Companies which we have already nsmed of twenty-five men each, one Hoes Company of twenty-five men, one Hook? and Ladder Comp Oiy. of thirty members, with books, ladders and one Fire Bucket Company the' old, first firs institution and one Protection, or Fire Warden Company, both about fifty members; in all ltie firemen, and all volunteers. This year General Lafayette visited our city, Bud great alarm was created by the Illumination of the city on that occasion, and the Fire Department waa kept busy -watching after things. Tbaa the Firs Department continued, not having bad very much to do, there having been so few conflagrations in our eity until the last ol tbe year lca, when tbe greatest fire that Cincinnati ever experienced took place. Thia terrible occurred on the night of Friday, December 11.

lbJ9. It commenced in the evening, about seven o'clock, at tbe south-east corner of Main and Third kt reels, snd burned into the midiile of that square, and then spread across Third street mtdway between Main and Hycawore, and np Main street to where tbe Commercial Notional Bank now stands then oi-euptvd by the flre-pniof of the Bntnon Bank of tite our famous United States Bank.

and where there is so much smoae there must be some fire. The plucky little news bas kept np tbe fight on the insurance steal, but ita only effect boa been to place on record the members of ths Legislature who stand ready to vote for snd defend a measure which was begotten In blackmsli and brought forth In corruption. There are three excuses which members offer for sustaining this measure. Tbe first Is consummate Ignorance; the second the seductive influence of taffy from tbs organs: and tbe third Is partisan bigotry. Either should be sufficient to defeat for any political office every man who voted to continue ths outrage.

Ot coarse no one of them had any, thing, to fear from tbe organs, as it has leaked out tbat tbe Managing Editor of one of them had orderea not to print any thine which woold ruffle ths ftathsm of any member of the Legislature. THE EBB AJTD SALABT BILL Wblcb was reported a few daya ago by Senator Hay re. of Wabash, has raised a marry rumpus. The Republican howl In favor of the adoption of ibe constitutional amendments wsS based on tbe "necessity Of a law, reducing the princely revenoesot county officers." During the past summer and winter tba Journal bas been frantically sbriek-Ine the' amendments on that ground. Bat Isst Sunday It announced editorially that there wss an implied contract between tbe people and tbe office-holders, that their emoluments should, not be reduced during the terms for which tbey were elected because 4hey had been, compelled to contribute to campaign funds.

The non-office holding voter will hardly see why the contribution to a corruption fund should entitle the offioial making it to reimburse himself out of the hard toll of the people. The proposed law will give to the four leading officers of the smalltrst conn- ties in tne fetale, except Itruwn. a net revehoe ot KJX per year. While In Allen. Marion, Vitto, Floyd, Tippecanoe.

To-day tbare are five tbonsand bookkeepers In -this State who are competent to fill these offices, and nearly- evcrv one of whom has sworn personal responsibility, and yet they are paid an average of less than one thousand dollars per rear. Then why should political managers who can hotkeen a set of books, snd who could not. without any honest capital Invested, makeSGOO per year, be allowed thousands of dollars net for work done by their poorly paid deputies oookt-housb Bixes Ars a power, for the reason that tbey furnish the bone and sinew of political campaigns. I am reliably informed thnt the average donation made by ceanty officers tu counties of twenty-five tbonsand population In the last campaign was esoli, and now these gentlemen demand that they he allowed to put their bands into tbe packets ef the people and reimburse themselves lor the corruption fund advanced laat fall.

I helped pack the Convention which nominated our member, and if ba goes back en me I will bave his scalp. Hs knows tbat I paid a liberal assessment to aid In his canvass, and now tbat he is fixed be bas no right to rob me." THB BRTfBLlCABS Are bound to pass a bill of some kind they dare not go borne without doing so. But they are bound to give a reform law, and unfortunately the tail now pending does not contain a single provision which -will beuefit tbe victims who are taxed under the clerks and aberifTX are made in ex.

Taken, as a whole the law is a bad piece of botebrwork, which will ctnse complications without benefit to the publio.
