LICATION FOR INJUNCTION. Yesterday, Messrs. John Esputa, Joha Thomfs Young an a Chas. Stewart, by Gen- Henkle, filed a bill against the triet Commissioners and Messrs. Gamew & Co., to enjom the construction of the new fire alarm telegraph, and Judge Wylie set the ad instant for hearing the application unetion. The bill, after the usuai ious as to the position and residence of the parties, states that for a considerable Lime the construction of a new and improved fire alarm telegraph has been deemed im- portant: that the legislature passed an act making an appropriation of $40,000 for the purpose. but no definite action being taken the act became inoperative and void; that bills wert introduced at the late session of Congress to extend the fire alarm telegraph, propriating $75.000 therefor, and passed both houses, but m consequence of clerical errors or otherwise it was not eorolled and failed to become a law, and no appropria- tion was made, nor bas Congress before or | since made any appropriation for the pur- | pose: that no authority existed on the 4th Straw that | of Mareh last or has subsequently existed | r making a contract, yet in May the Com- missioners authorized Joseph Williams, President of the Board of Fire Commis- stoners.

They also state on in- formation that the systems of Chester ana Gurnsey are superior to that of Gamewell & Co., and they received so little and imperfect consideration that their real merits were not fully and fairly determined on, and that a determination existed to give the contract to Gamewell & Co. from the commencement of the illegal action of the Commissioners in reference to the subject; that the contract is made *‘for inferior and imperfect apparatus and machinery, but in view of the work pro- to be done at prices extravagant and ly what other and better work could be secured for;” that the conti ractors have no complete or —< ttle to the on south A tent or machinery which it is to construct, and they are in! it itis the intention of parties interested to contest their right to thesame, and heavy and exten- sive litt, against theDistrict may easue; that all the facts cannot be stated, and can only be fully known by means of @ discov- ery.

Brooks was unanimously elect secretary, and, in aecepting the position, re- turned his thanks, and stated that it was one of responsibility and the duty arduous, bat it devolved upon some member, and last year he had aceepted it because as a member he should do all in his power in the cause of education. He had bad some distrust in his ey: but the members had assisted him, and his thanks were especially due to Supor- intendent Wilson. He felt encouraged in his work by the reflection that the effeets of their work would be seen after they have left it.
