Regis - nation of Mr. Blackburn—Ms
. Career as a Public Officer..
--- Mr;- - Alexander -.W.--Blackburni the--Fir e :
Marshal, one of the most energetic and valu
able officers of - the City Governnient, has
tendered his resignation to Mayor F_ox. - , The
reason assigned for this Course is that the The
of his health is such as to make him no
longer able to discharge, the -duties of the
position with justice to the public or satisfac
tion to himself. The resignation has not' yet
been accepted, the Mayor having held the
.._subject under advisement for several days past.
Mr. Blackburn was born in. Stafford ' county,
Virginia, and was educated at:
Kenyon Col-.
. lege, Rnox county, - Ohio: 'He served-in the
Second Dragoons, United States Army, during
the - Seminolandiarr-war, in Ploridai-and
came to Philadelphia for the first thine in 1836
on business connected with the army. He fell
in love with the city, and at the conclusion of
the war, in 1839; he settled here. He was first
engaged in a drug store, where he got the
soubriquet of "Doctor,', which has clung to

was one of the Pioneers. of that professioa in

his warm fritinds - : - Hia - Minute - and - graphic
accounts of the riots of May and July, 1.844,
written at times of intense public excitement,
are among the most reliable - chronicles of
those memorable local events.
Mr-Blackburn-was Qui first local.reporterof
- - the EVENING Iturituribr; ,- having • bean - *tic- -

- - Casper Souder, Jr., between whom-find
the Doctor the warmest friendship always ex
isted. ' •
In 1850. when lawlessness in the Fire De
partment of Philadelphia was rampant, and
there was a reign of terrpr in some parts of
the citywhen the'" Killers" -and- other kin=
dred disorderly classes dClied the constituted
authorities, and nightly lighted the incendiary
torch as a prelude to murderous affrays—the
consolidated,or Marshal's police_ was organ
n
niiedlby a ct ef-Asseiribly,witli thCbrave,
impetuous. and noble-hearted John S. Keyser
at its bead,to put down the rioters -and restore
• peace and order. Dr. Blackburn was one of
the very first to enrol himself -- in - ittt ranks.
From a pure fondness -fdr adventure he ex
- changed,the -note-book and-pencil for the re
volver, and, entered that actiye and daring
force,aud for four yeant,u niter Marshals Keyser
and Murphy, filling the positions of special
officer, and lieutenant, was a conspicuous
- actor in numerous- dangeroua incidents and
thrilling scenes. -
As the time of the consolidation of the city
and - outlying - Districts,in - 1854 - , - Mayor - Conrad
tendered Mr. filachburii the highest offiee.- in
the police in his gift, and afterwards offered
him the position of private Secretary. Mr. B.
served as High Constable and Detective under
Mayers Conrad and - Vain:, winning great
credit in the working up and preparation for
trial of several celebrated murder cases, and
the detection and arrest of shrewd counter
feiters and desperateburglars. In 1857 inceir
diaritm became rampant, and Mayor Vaux
created the office of Fire Marshal—an office
which was first suggested by the EVENING
BULLETIN, through the late Mr. Souder--and
Mr. Blackburn was selected for that important
position, and he has continued in it during the
administrations-of Mayors Vaux, Henry, Mc-
Michael and Fox—a period of more than thir
teen years. His career in this specialty of the
Detective Department is so well known to
every class of the community as to be part of
the local history of the city. The following
extract from his last annual report shows
what has been done during his term as Fire
_Marshal :
" It is just thirteen years since I was de
tailed from the detective department of the
police for the special duty of investigating the
causes of fires and detecting incendiaries.
During that time 914 persons were arrested
on the charges of arson and suspicion of
having committed or intending to commit
that offence, and conspiring with and insti
gating others to perpetrate the same, and
being accessory- thereto either be fora or after
the fact, or both. The number convicted,
either by their own confession to the Fire
Marshal, or by pleas on arraignment, or
verdicts of juries in the criminalcourt, was
15:C-an average of one. conviction a month.
The ages of these detected parties ranged from
eight to is venty years. In no city in America
or Europ as far. as I have been able to ob
tain information, has there been a larger.
number of persons found guilty of incen
diarisni in the same period of time. For-half
a century immediately preceding the crea
tion of the fire detective branch' of the police
by your distinguished predecessor, Hon. Rich
ard Vaux, convictions for arson-in Pniladel- -
phia were very unusual. The arraignment of
an incendiary was so unfrequent an occur
rence, tbat it convulsed the entire community.
The records of the criminal courts show that
sometimes there was not a solitary conviction
tor that offence in a continuous period of five
years. Prior to 1840, a trial forarson was rare.
Between 1840 and 1850, there was an occasional
instance. After the formation of the Mar
shal's police in 1850, the instances became
11101• C in quent. But as in all other things, so
,in the detective operations of the police, what
Was everybody's business was nobody's bash
ness, and it was not until 1857, when fire
detection was made a specialty by Mayor
Vaux,. that this alarming. crime-was grappled
- with in earnest!'
Since the issue of Misreport; four more pen
sons Lave been convicted- of arson=one in J an
nary last and one on his own conic sion in
open court on Saturday last and two on
i\l onday.
From 1850 to 1870 Mr. Blackburn has either
filled or had the refusal of every position in
the Police Department from private up to
Chief. This shows the confidence reposed in
his honesty and ability by his superiors. How
well lie has acuuitted himself in his official
acts his record tells. His good- name and rep
utation are , universally acknowledged. Flis
integrity has never been questioned by any
right-thinking or high-minded citizen.
The office of Fire Marshal is one of the
most important, responsible and delicate posi
tions under the City Government, and merits
liberal pay; but, so far, it has never received
the pecuniary appreciation it deserves. The
most erroneous and extravagant ideas have
been formed in regard to Mr. Blackburn's
annual • compensation. In view of
the amount of physical and mental-labor he
has performed for the benefit of the city, he
has been the worst paid public officer in the
land, and we regret to learn that he retirse to
private life poor. As his health has been com
pletely broken down by his watchful efforts to
protect property in the city, and fidelity in
serving the cause of justice, and as he has a
very large family to support, some little testi
- ' ' monial on thif part of the cityauthorities,'the
underwriters, or our business men, would not
only be very appropriate but - weuld,
I&i,s, be very welcome to the recipient at this
time.
We understand that Mr. Blackburn, as soon
as his health is recuperated I),y rest and change
of scene, intends to engage in a business in
which the Underwriters and the public will,
at all tinies,have the advantage of his informa;
lion and experience, in all matters of fires and
the -- crimea connected - with - fire - , - life; - aecldent - '
and other branches of insurance. In what
--- - ever new. calling -he may embark, we take
pleasure in recommending:llin), and trust that
be may meet with that 'success whiell he so._
. justly deserves.
• LOCAL CHOWDER.—In the . way ;of hid,
weather during:June,. 187%. the trump car.hs,
were held by last Saturday and Yesterday. At
noon on Sunday the mercury soared up to 90,
and without sufficient air to setinto vibration
the web of the gossamer. Not.to ppt too rine
a point Upon' it,Sunday was literttlly hot. The
barefooted children of Bedford street danced
upon- the heated bricks like'bettis upon heated
_plates,. The_ tongues - _'of. literally__ lolled.
from- thelf --The shady sides. .of the_
street. during - the afternoon were lined with
people, from the baby to the grandmother,
panting for a breath of air. The decks of the
boats running to Gloucester, were as . filled
with people as a sugar-box in front of a gro=
eery store is "black with flies." Smith's
Island was alike thronged.' For some reason .
or other at this placethere is always a breeze
astir. Its willows are waving, at times when
not a puff' of air can be felt by ,the person
who stands upon the city WharVes. There was
yesterday no visiting of cemeteries. The fairy
little steamers on the Schuylkill, did a busi—
ness that taxed the capacity of the entire
four. The heat . kept away even from Fair
mount Park the people that usually visit it
from other Sections of _the_ city. :.The_breeze
that sprung up about 8 P. M. was a relief en
joyed by everyone. • •
—The Democracy go through the motions,
• to - -day and to-Morrow', of Making - their •riofni- --
nations. They are then to select the lambs for
the October slaughter. The tree4rogs of the
Row are uttering their distinctive cry in front
of the State House, this morning. They vary
the music by dipping at frequent intervals
into the recesses of the various gin mills. For
promoting one's 'morals . , politics are not
strongly to be recommended. One Demio-.
cratic candidate, who, three months since, left
church on Sunday evenings in his carriage,
_left_a gin , mill,..last evening,. omit shutter. lie
was seen walking un Chestnut. street this
morning with a prize-righter on each arm.' -
—The supply of ice, yesterday, was so
limited that thestock of dealers' who didn't
refuse to sell only to_their regular customers
ran out before 2P. M. The consequence was
that many a poor creature went. to bed in a
condition akin to suffering. With the tem
perature at'Ulthe indeed - water of the Schuyl
kill
is a literal emetic.
.----The piano stores are to be closed during
the months of July and August, by agreement
of-their-proprietors„-at-live-eclockeacWatterl
noon. This is with exception of SaturdayS:
With a view to giving all hands an opportunty
to rusticate until Monday at Atlantic City or
Smith's Island, they will on Ewri,t day put up
- shutters at three o'clock. People who want to
-buy piano's at a moment's notice will please

the coming Fourth the preparations all
around us for private blow-outs are far-front"
inconsiderable. At the villas of our rural re
sidents arrangements are very generally being
made to do honor to the fowl of liberty and
the stars and stripes. The lawns upon the
banks of the Delaware will probably present
an array of - pyrotechnics that -will- send the
" lightning-bugs" into temporary exile. By
many of our manufacturers especial enter
tainments are in preparation. A. number of
the beads of large industrial establishments,
their entire_ force .of loperatiires; will be taken
to the seaside. Most of them bring up at Atr

—A city clergyman, yesterday morning,
thought, when he entered his pulpit, that the
manuscript alas sermon.was in the pocket of
.his coat,: As it wasn't, he was obliged to•go
tht; vestry room; bring out a voluble of printed
sermons, and stumble, With -excruciating tor
ture, over an apology -for a discourse. The
gentleman 'was a candidate for a call to, the
pulpit in question. That he will receive it
maybe-set down as doubtful.: _. •

'some of therpopulous parts'Of the city there
is one set of inhabitants so nervous that they
take no rest excepting that, taken while the
children of another set are immured in school.
—A gentleman tells us that for one-half of
the bell on Rev. Albert_ Barnes's church" he
would pay a liberal sum. Having secured pos
session.-he says, he would also secure a sledge
hammer, and immediately proceed to sledge
his half of it into smithereens. The tone of
this bell is certainly discordant. That bells
upon three-fourths of city chuithes are a
mere superfluity In tbe shape of din and
clangor, is au idea entertained by many.
People in the vicinity of this - church, who are
wrestling with illness, are deeply to be pitied.
TEE BOARD OF SURVEYS.—An adjourned
meeting of this body was lield this morning at
their rooms, in South Fifth street.
President Kneass occupied the chair.
The plan of the street lines south of the
Navy lard and east of Swanson street was
adopted. A large number of interested par
ties were either present or represented by
counsel. The Board, with every disposition
to defer in every possible way to the interests
of all parties, very naturally found it impos
sible to please all.
The plan, as adopted, goes to the courts fo:
confirmation. It then acquires a legal
validity.
A petition for a sewer on Woodland street;
for one on Beach street, between Green and
Coates; on Buttonwood street, from Eighth to
Franklin ; on Morris street, west of Seventh,
First Ward ; on Third street, betwean
street and the summit north of George street ;
on Lawrence street, from Thompson to. Jeffer
son ' • for extension of sewer on Fifth street
north to Wager; a remonstrance against a
proposed sewer on Oxford street, from
American street to Mascher, were presented
and referred to Committees.
Also one for a culvert in North street, be
tween Fifteenth and Steteenth streets. _ _ _
This was the extent of the busines transacted,
possessing public interest. 'Adjourned.

Georgia, and their differences are now - so
slight that we have good reason to hope the
work of reconstruction will speedilY be com

till the country is tired of the war of words.
Votes, and not arguments, tire what We - want
now. .
Everybody knows that the ,rebels"them
selves are to blathe for the present condition
of Georgia... The original plan of. reconstruc
tion--was as liberal-as even - the most-unre
pentant could desire; no class was denied
representation in the Legislature; the mem
bers were required to subscribe to - no test oath ;
representatives were admitted to seats in Con
gress, and nothing seemed to stand in the way
-of speedy restorationi-whemevil cofinsels pre
vailed, arid loyal colored members of the
General -Assembly were expelled. -But- we
cannot afford to be ungenerous and proserip•
tive because a few misguided men have set at
naught the principles on Which our Govern
ment is based. The ratification of _the Fie
teenth Amendment has. disposed, of the only
valid arguniverfor delaying e
thiidniisslciti of
the lastrebellious State and the final and com
plete restoration of the Union.
The bill, as it passed the House on Friday;
is an improvement ou-the one which passed
in March last. It imposes no conditions, hut
recognizes those already fulfilled by the ratifi
cation, in.good faith, of the XlVth and XVtlm
Amendments, and it does not seek to continue
in power the present State Government•by
postponing any election beyond the time fixed
by the State Constitution. It also, by repeal
ing a portion of the Act of March 2d, 1817,
allows the organization of militia and its use
in suppressing violence and disorder within
the State.— Tribune.
"DER FILEISCHUTZ" IN PAHIS.
Der Freiselattz has failed again, in Paris
for the twentieth time. A correspondent of
the London Heroic/ writes as follows:
Der Freiscletitz is doomed to remain un
appreciated in France. At the Odeon, - where
it was first given, many years ago,in the guise
of an adaptation by Castil Blaze, called _Robin
des Bois, at the Opera, and at the Lyrique, , it
has always failed. It has been revived in the
line Lepelletier ; but although the
vise-111. scene exceeds in splendor any
thing hitherto attempted, • .Weber's
master-piece excites no interest. Nothing is
' omitted ; but the "Invitation a la Vase,"
:instrumented by Berlioz, is introduced as an
excuse for a sumptuous. billet ; and the mas
terly recitatives of the clever Frenchmen are
also emplciyed without effect. It is possible that
,the essentially German, character of the weird
tale an A. romantic music may bennsuitedto - the
Parisian temperament; but where so much ex
pense is incurred in scenery,it might be worth
while to spend a little money insingers. There
is not one fully capable vocalist in the present
cast. Mlle. Hisson is a tine-looking young
lady, with a powerful voice; but she" is quite
- unequal to such apart as' that of_ ". Agatha;"
while M. Villaret, the tenor of the troupe, is
untit for any important charaterin thiiopera.
