A special meeting of the Board of Foremen and Engi- peers of the Fire Department was held on Monday evening at Firemen’s Hall, H. H. Howard, Chief Engiueer, in the chair, and Mr, Wenman, secretary. LOST BADGES OF FIREMEN. One of the principal objects for which the Board was called together was to take some action on the badge question. It seems that the brass badges which were given to the members of the Fire Departatent to distin; guish them at firos, have in many instances been lost. is computed that nine hundred of these badges are in the hands of persons who are not firemen, and every thief in the city can oan get inside the Police lines at fires by means of medals. It was proposed to abolish the use a these badges entirely, or elso amend the rule of the Dey t respecting them. eee = Mr. Joun B. emscn, of 7, oftored the following:— Beaten thas a 6 committee be appuinted to revise the law relative to fircmen’s badges, to the cnd that persons Joining the department can be furnished with ges as x00n us approved by the Board of Fire Commissiouers. - Jacon L.

PP be -Do you recognise the right of the Board in Che Excrveer—I do. They have all to do with it. Mr. Surri—Then Ido not see that there is any use in agking the Common Council to do what the Commissioners can do without their action. In answer to a question, the Cure Exarvmes stated that the Fire Commissioners bad extraordinary powers. Ac- cording to the law, he believed they could disband the whole department. Mr. Levaxict stated that the badge law was a humbug, and was no good W any ove but thieves, who got a chance by means o them to commit depredations at fires with impunity. Foreman of Hose No. 33 was in favor of the badge Jaw. if there were 1,000 badges lost, it was the fault of the officers of the companies, who ought tokuow all about them and where they were. WriuaM Mrnax, of Engine Company No. 40, said it was notorious that thieves got possession of the badges, and it ‘waa impossible for the officers t> recognize, in the hurry ire, the lost badges. Goxson, of No. 42 Engine, defended the Fire Com missioners from certain charges made against them. They only bad the same powers us the old Fire aud Water Committee 01 the Common Council. ‘After some furdher dizeusaivn the retotution was passed, with an amendment appointing @ committee t inquire into the power of the Fire Commissioners to fornish badges. THE BELL RINGERS. A resolution was aiso passed asking the Legi-lature to grant to tho firemen the appointinent of bell ringers, in- stead of leaving it inthe power of the Mayor, a= at pre sent. The Board of Foremen were designated as the pro- per parties to have this power. THE FIRE. COMMISSIONERS. W. H. Wicktiam, of Hook and Ladder Co.

Resolved, That this Board believe that by a more conc) liatory and’ temperate coarse of action im the rendering of decisions by the Commussioners, the peace and harmony of the department will be better promoted, and less of toe time of the Commissioners’ Board be cousumed in the transaction of business. Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed by the chairman to present the resviations to the Fire Commis: sioners, and state to them the views of this body on the subject matter above reterred to. ¢ resolutions, after some debate, was carried by a vote of 66 to 45. ‘The following in the committee agp gi — Wickbam, of Hook and Ladder No. 15, Taylor, of Hose Company Noo 8!

A most foul and diabolical murder was committed this morning, between the hours of nine and twelve o'clook, in Manheim township, about five miles from this city.

T have the honor mosknowtelen the e the receipt of your let ter of 28th uit, enclosing a Boston, and requesting tees rie the effect which the present financial crisis will have upon the revenue fer the next Pext twelve + hteen months. It is a ver It question, and on which I eannotform avery det leg I believe that the present in its severity was wholly unnecessary, and duced wholly by the mismanagement of the New York banks, in continuing their violent centraction of the curtency after all necessity for it had ceased, inas- much as the of gold had ceased betore the middle of September, and could only be made at @ loss compared to bills of exchange. This policy New York banks still continue, Zh specie is flowing into the country even from Fu- rope. Ifcontinued long enough it will be introducing a pure specie currency throughout the whole cuount whieh might Rechars | be done in the course of a twelve. ; but during which uearly all trade and manufacture must cease, a8 at present. Itis not probable, however, that thie system qill be continued much longer, so contra- TY as it to tho intorests of the banks and of the whole country. But it will be a slow process to recover from the paralysis and wreck brought upon us by this intense eon traction of the currency. Perhaps it will not bo too largo ‘an estimate to say thatthe revenue will be diminished to an extent equal to its ordinary product for six months, At the same time the country being in a state of the highest Prosperity, except for this derangement of the currency; when that is corrected it will return to its usual action with great elasticity. It is, however, undoubtedly true that both the imports and duties for ‘the last two years have been in excess of a wholesome trade. Ihave been many years out of active business, and can- not undertake to give an opinion on the working of the new tariff upon the revenue. I cannot, however, avoid expressing the opinion that the present tarift, besides being founded on a wrong principle, is, ih its construction, the most clumsy, and in its practical operation the most inconvenient of any tariff which has been adopted in the United States. Of this I think you must have had yourself pretty full experience in the many difficult questions Phen ‘on have been called on to decide, What can be more absnrd than the different classifications of woollen and worsted, and the various manufacturers of cotton? What an improvement and simplicity it would introduce to make all textile fabries of cotton, wool, linen, silk, Ac. , subject to the same rate of duty, wh Tshould place at 25 per cent, and make everything under 20 per cent free, Twas a member of Congress in 1832, 1833 and 1840, during each of which sessions the tariff was the most in- teresting subject of discussion. The tariff of 1832 was framed upon tho principle of raising a sufficient revenue by duty on ar- ticles similar to those made in this country for the purpose of affording protection to American labor, and the capital invested in manufactures. 1 voted for that bill in company with Mr. Poik, Cave Johnson, and many other leading men of the democratic party. fn fuct, the protective system was introduced especially by that party. Itis altogether a system essentially democratic, for the bevelit of hubar, although Mr. Seeretary Walker was able, to persuade a majority of Congress that it was bes | ital which was favored by it. is one consideration growing out of the present tariff which is worthy the attention of the cotton planters. Large quantities of ‘cloths for printing aud dying have been imported at a duty of 19 percent. This Is done in consequene of their being mado of one half to two-thirds from Bombay cotton, which \s of less value than our own three to four cents a pound, a difference just about equal to the duty. The only remedy ter this is the importing of cotton from India, which some of our manufacturers were preparing—but forthe present disturbances—but which will undoubtedly be done if the trade is open.
