I. Until the arrival of either the Chief or the Fir Mar tha), the lieutenant of the distriot in whioti the tire occura rill take eommeod. III. The Hesene Foroe of the district In which the Are is reported, toirfltber with the Reserve of all the net ad joining distriots, will immediately, upon tha alarm being Kven, procend rapidly to the scene of the contlairration, ring with them the fire-ropes and lantern of their re nective district. Upon arriving at the Are the rO)ea will le strthed aoroea the streets In such manner an to give t he firemen ample space in which to operate, and all per Dons, except equipped firemen and other properly autho rir.ed persona, will be compelled to get outside of the tire cordon. , , IV. In order to be prepared to render assistance incase of accident, the stretcher belonging to the district in which the tire takes place will, in all cases, be taken to the fire by the officers of that district. V. Officers will, as far as practicable, be kept together by districts; and when relieved will be marched back to their station-house in a body. VI. Kvery exertion must be made to prevent robbery, and to this end officers will be placed at the entrance of all open houses and over all merchandise and movable property. The officer in charge will see tnat the guards in question are properly stationed and instructed previous to removing the ropes. VII. It seems to be frequently the case that whan a fire occurs tlieolhcersof the district leave t heir beats in order to attend the tire; this is improper; the officers on duty must remain, and should be extra vigilant, as thieves fre inrntly seize opportunities of this nature to oporate. VIII. In many instances we find that the travel of the pissenger cars is unnecessarily interruped on streets seve ral wiunres from the tire, thereby adding to the confusion and greatly inconveniencing, the public; this should be avoided, and no line of cars stopped except those in the immediate vicinity of the tire. IX. In cases of accident officers should be promptly do. tniled to carry the wounded to the hospital or secure the attendance of phyricians. X. The officers must be prompt in suppressing disorder and rioting, and will render to the firemen and insurance patrol every assistance possible, and will be expected to act in harmony with them in their patriotic efforts to save I tie property of our cit izens from destruction.

The argument upon the rule granted against Haggerty, to shew cause why he should not be remanded to the penitentiury to serve out an unexpired term of imprison ment, not. having been concluded on Saturday last, was resinned this morning air. Brooke, citing additional authorities In support of his theory that if an unconstitutional condition is an neied toa pardon, thueonclition is repugnant to the par don and void, but the pardon ilsolf is absoluto anil valid, proceeded to advance a now proposition, namely, that, by imposing the condition that the ix-isouer should leave the country the Governor had overreached his authority, which extended only over this State and not beyond its limits. If Haggerty had taken up hie resi dence in Now Jersey, where hie pardon would fiiive been his p.otection, and some e-ime other than that for which he was sentenced should have been discovered to nave been committed by him in this State, he could not send a requisition for him to the Governor of New Jersey, for the condition imposed in the pardon would be a bar against snch a proceeding. But the coadition was not content with sending the pris oner ont of the State alone, but went all the length of banishing him from the country. Suppose Haggerty had not gone farther than New York, how could the Governor have c aused his return for a violation of the condition ? The pardon was of the offense, and not of tho offender; the offense, therefore, being willed out, there was nothing upon which a requisition could be founded, and the Governor of Pennsylvania having no jurisdiction in tho State of New York, he could in no way effect the return of the prisoner, lint again, if Haggerty, beinif a resident and citizen of New York, should desire to travel throutrh this State to the Went, his pardon and citizenship under an other State would be his safeguard against his molestation here. But by prescribing that the grantee should leave tho country was really a disfranchisement, which was pro hibited by the Constitution of the nation. On the point ot the fulfilment ot tho condition it was argued that Hint only required in terms that the pri soner should leave tho country, but not that he should never return. He did leave the country, as had been proven, and it was not for the (Join t to say what the grantor of the pardon bad not mid, that the grantee had uo right to return. Mr. Mann followed Mr. Brooke, premising that the sub in had been so thoroughly exhausted by Mr. Brooke that nut little was left to him, and heuan by saying tht this question of the validity of a conditional pardon was one of the greatest interet-t not only to the prisoner, but to the whole State, find therefore he thought a lawyer a man whose profession called him to such duties should be allowed, fairly, honestly, and freely, to discuss such a question before an honorable Court, without strict and unjust criticism, as though he were as bud as or worse than the burglar or other offender, whether he be a Hag gerty or not. To the point of the pardon : he certainly behoved that It was umilied to the offense and not to the offenders, and. therefore, no condition could lawfully be annexed; but. f granting, for the hake of argument, that a condition could e imposed, was this Buch a one as should standi1 Could tho Governor name as a condition that Haggerty should forover vote a certuinwayy Could ho forever control his vote? No. Thou could he control his will to reside in any county f Could he force hiin to become a citizen of any particular sovereignty 1 No! It would not be just in the sight of Heaven or in the sight of man. If the grantee is too bad a man to bo allowed to reside here, it is wrong to force him with all bis wickedness upon another people. This State has no penal colony to which to transport its scourges, and it cannot make penal colonies of its neighbors. But it is contended that no oondition cam be coupled with a par don, and when granted, the pardon must be construed most strongly against the government and most favor ably to the grantee. This was James HaKgerty's case, but in law it was the same as the case of any other man. If another man hud been pardoned fouryeurs ago upon a condition similar to this, and hud returned a reformed man, had married, and made bis littlo'home, surrounded by bright-eyed little children und by admiring friends, and tho prosecuting officer should break into his happy little household, ex cluiming, "Ah! ha! yot; are buck in the State, and now must you go back to your prison cell!" tho whole commu nity would arie, unit there would be such a cry about the ears of that officer that he could not he heard. The law makes no distinction ol' persons, and the Court mustud minittcr justice to James Haggerty as in thut man. District Attorney Shenpura closed the discussinn. He concurred in most of tuo propositions advanced by Mr. Brooke and Mr. Muna. The latter gentleman hud favored the Court with an eloquent and beautiful exhortation to a nti in ui.Bingv;i . u u .(IT., I u 1 1 11 J ill nuibU UO ITUU1U suggest that Mr. Mann should apply his excellent advice 10 nis client, py wnoin it was mucn more neeaed than by this honorable Court. On the part of the Commonwealth, all remarks tending to excite the flame of public indignstion aguinst the prisoner had been scrupulously avoided : whether or not thera existed a prejudice against him, the Commonwealth's officer did not stand here to take advantage of it ; but if what he con tended was the law. Me wanted it administered. Nor did he desire to strain that luw one hair's breadth against the firisoner or any other man living : und if the prisoner were en times the man he was painted us by some, he would usk for him the same law that would apply to one as white a snow. Turning to the practice in this 81 ate. Mr. Rhonnard cited manv oases from Ih'JI down to the cases of Hester VanirliMti and Chuuncoy Johnson, showing that the Governors had all sanctioned the annexation of conditions to pardons. Fussing from the practice to the luw, he took the broud ground that in all matters, other than of impeachments, the pardoning power of the Governor is as absolute as wordB can make it. These conditions were not executive coercions, banishments, or expatriations, as the prisoner's counsel had attempted to prove; they were contraots oh;n.t.!r,1 Si-'el,,''1. b lhe trantees. The Executive said. You will be released upon acceptance of this condi tion, otherwise you Bhall remuin in prison ;" and they said "We willingly and gladly take our liberty, and will go abroad." 1 hey ask a boon and pay the stipulated con sideration. Therefore, all that talk about expatriation is entirely inapplicable here. Kla veil's case, decided in 1846 by the Supreme Court in Bono, and not at Nisi Prius, as the prisoner's counsel oi niuwu.il leously supposed, decided that conditional pardons constitutional : and in thut case the condition was a ival from the State. This is the law ku .t... were remova. highest court; if it lie bad law, yet this Court is bound by it, and it is reviewable only by the Court that nronouueed -na an argument, here against it would, come with bad W:. .... .... .. ... . ... as to wneinnr tne condition or uie pardon nad been fulfilled. Mr. Sbeppurd argued the negative, and niaiu tamed that the burden of proof of the fultilment was with the aeionuuni, wuicn tie Qua tailed to raulco tempted, though by incomplete means, to had left the country and was living at S Canada, This place is but eleven miles the defendant, which he hud failed to muko.

Catherines without personul inconvenience. This was not the proper kind of proof of a bona Jite departure from the country a fair and natural pre. sumption that he was at most merely vibrating between the borders of the two countries. This word ''leave" in the pardon means something, and is not to be trifled with in this manner. And the pardon vu iri-untMii r,,r Hm vim,! ot the community as well as of the grantee, und be must, execute it in that sense. And the canon of law in this respect is that the oonstruo firm of thmtiardon is to be strict .u.inui 1 1 r,. it is a privilege pleaded by him in doroifation to the right of others the community.

To the Editor of the yew York Tribune. Sir: Since seeing you a moment last evening, I rmve read some twenty dill'ereut papers proclaiming "Heavy Defalcations" in the Methodist Book Con cern. They all point to Dr. Lanahan, the Assistant , book Agent, as tue astute discoverer or tne painful I facts. Several of them name the writer aud two I or three others as the principal criminals in the premises. We are therefore Buil'eriug in our reputation and business, and must miller until something more definite la divulged; and the Book Concern must be holden responsible for It. Now arf Dr. Lanahan seems to have started these rumors, and as all eyes are anxiously turned to wards him for information, it seems to be the duty of the agents to state distinctly, over their own sig- natures,wnetner tnere mis reaiiy been any -aeiaiea-tlon'' or not. They owe it to the Concern, of which they are the honored custodians; they owe it to the parties who stand implicated bv their agency, and to tne puoiic wnicn manifests bo mucn interest m tne question. If this is all a farce, set on foot to aid certain private and party interests, just at this time, while the Conferences are voting on Lay Delegation. it is quite important to Know it. itumor says that the edition of the Christian Advocate stopped the press last Tuesday morning to deny the astounding statement of the Times, and that Dr. Lanahan would not allow it. if this is true ne must enaorso tne re ports in circulation, and cannot hesitate to pumisn JllBl wnat lie Knows uu wo imujucr, if he will not do It, perhaps Mr. Carlton, tho principal agent, will fool interest enough in the Buffering parties, embracing me ume honored Book Concern, to state whether or not there has been any such defalcation as la al leged. It is certainly time for that agency to speak out and relieve the public mind of tho damaging suspicious It has created. Atier waning a ic- uajB for further developments from headquarters, I pro pose to take such measures to vindicate inyseu axainHt every published rumor lmpllcatory of my character and administration as circumstances may require, which I can do by the tmkt o tiie concern ami the affidavits of honest men, -New 10rK, Kept. 84, ISIiSI.

The A1 rm and navy Jourutl has the following: We are lad to be able to say that the story of the ter rible mutiny on tho Sabine has now authoritative denial from one of the oillccrs of tho vessel. Tho wife of Lieutenant-Commander George P. Ryan has received a letter from her husband, dated aboard the Sabine, after her arrival at Lisbon, in which tho officer says: "There has been a most ridiculous canard published aboiwt us in a Paris paper which I suppose has, ere this, been telegraphed home some thing about the discovery of a conspiracy to blow up the ship, and the hanging of seven men. In whoso fertile brain the story originated I cannot imagine. Nothing has occurred to give it the slightest founda tion." A Heroic Woman. A Mrs. Robinson, living about six miles from In dianapolis, recently displayed great heroism in sav ing her child from drowning. The child waa playing near an open cistern, containing over six leel of water, and fell in. The mother, alone in the house, heard the splash and subsequent screams. She went to the cistern and saw tho child floating on th's water, and then ran for a ladder, which she found had been misplaced. She again hastened to the cis tern, and finding the child had sunk, plunged to tho bottom, and after two or three unsuccessful at tempts, at length brought an the child, apparently lifeless. Her cries had attracted a neighbor, who took the child, and Anally succeeded rescuing the heroic woman. Both mother and child were in a little time fully restored. Those Old Tab. A correspondent writes to the New York Herald: Having Just returned from the Peruvian monitor neet, wnicn, after a ten mounts' passage or, rain er, a vo ace from New Orleans, had arrived at Bahia, Brazil, T scud you some details of the voyage, which I hope may be Interesting to your readers. The fleet has now accomplished about one-fifth of its voyage to Peru, and at the rate it is travelling (If the monitors last so long) will complete the passage out in something less than four years. Fresh navy omcers keep coming rrora Peru to meet tnem. although there are already more attached to tho fleet than can be stationed or emnloved on the dif ferent ships. The monitors will have to undergo extensive repairs at Kio Janeiro, if they are fortu nate enough to reach there. Their wooden beams and wooden decks under the deck plating, which by survey were declared rotten at New Orleans before the fleet sailed, are now In a badly decayed condi tion. Tne snips are now so umner tnat tue armor plates on deck work up and down past each other neany one-quarter 01 an men wnen mere is any sea on, and the decks leak badly. The Peruvians pro bose to nut iron beams and more stanchions in the hips at Rio, besides muking other and extensive re pairs. This will swell the already enormous bins of these monitors to an extent that will astonish the Peruvians at home, and drain pretty heavily that gnano pile that seems to support the whole Govern ment and a great part or its people.
