I therefore earnestly recommond to you the immediate increase of the police force aiid the adoption of 6uch measures ror their action, discipline and efficiency as you may deem expedient and necessary. No time should be lost in maturing this important meas. ure The stunmer has left us and tno season is approach ing when vigilance and protection are most needed. It is in winter time particularly f that the-idle- and waved who always abound-in large cities, are more active in preying upon the community, added to whom and following id the wake of an excellent and Indus trinus emigration, there are often to be found bad mtn of dissolute habits and to whom crimes of the Tnoßt-atrocions-charactor-aronotunfamUiart. who, being. too well known in their own countries, seek our shores to afflict us by-tbeir depredations also ; and it is to be feared that the number of these will be greatly increased by the termination of the present European war. These, and other like features, are in front of us, and wo should be prepared to meet them. Unbolted yard-gates and open-doora.and windows of stores and dwellings through the dark hours of the night, as has hitherto been reported by the officers, should no longer happen. Our citizens must add-their own-precautions to tho efforts you will make through an adequate and efficient ■nolicoforce, and then tho community will enjoy a better protection than they have had for a long timopoet. In short, whatever you may.do. having a tendency to pre serve the public peace, to give to life and property, and to bring to summary and condign punishment the perpetrators of crime, will have my prompt sanction dnd cooperation . T again recommend to you, as I have more than once already done, that there shall be a chaDgein taeiaode of electing the Engineersof the Fire Department. It is an anomaly in our system of government that public officers whoso'duties are prescribed by law, who are * subject only to public control, and who are paid out of the public treasury, shall be elected by the members of private associations. The past has shown that the mode of choice is unsatisfactory. The Engineers too often considor themßelveß the representatives of those who elect them, and on whern they depend for re-election and continuance in office. This change alone will effect much good. The power already vested in the Engb peers is sufficient, if wisely and impartially used, and •whon their governing officers are chosen by the municipal authorities or by tho people, the ontoreaks which have characterized our : Tfre DebarlnTeiitrrant! which- I-regret- to say have-oc curred since you last' met) will no longer take place. Under such a regulation tho Fire Department can be an efficient auxiliary of the rolice, while under its present phase it haß too ofton called the aggressive duties of the latter department into requisition. These things, gen tlemen, ought to command your immediate attention, bearing, as they do, directly upon the peace and char actorof our city, and tho safety and comfort of item habitants: and 1 have an abiding confidence that your ro* turn to public duty, alter the summer vacation, will bo marked by your continued determination to be faathtul representatives in doing all that is necessary for ©ur people’s prosperity and respectful! y, Mayor of Philadelphia.

The evi dence against him is only circumstantial. It. seems that on the 26th pf November last Mr. John M. Barras, residing on Pine street, above Twenty-third, discovered a fire in the kitchen ot his house, the hack door of whicli had been broken open. The flames were soon extin guished. This was at one o’clock in the morn ing. On an account of an ill-fe,eling existing between Mr. Barras and Spence, who is his son-in-law, the latter was suspected of having fired the house, and Assistant Fire Marshal Bandall took out a warrant for his arrest. It was ascertained that Spence was at a ball on that night, and that lie left three-quarters ol an hour before the discovery of the lire. He was sefcn to go into his own house, Twenty second and Summer streets, about ten minutes before the tire, but nobody seems to have seen him about Mr. Barras’s house. On two or three occasions previously he had threat ened Mr. Barras. and once the aid of the nollce had to be invoked to eject him from the house. On the 28th of November he enlisted and dis appeared. On Sunday last he was arrested by the Bark Guard for some oflonce and was taken to the Ninth District Police Station There he was recognized. Mr. Randall wa sent for and fully identified the prisoner.

Mr. Sellers suggested that the discussion upon the uniform size of tires, which had been i nterropted yesterday, be continued to-day. i he suggestion was adopted, and a long de bate ensued, in which a number bi tho uele aates participated.

In response Mr. Jackson, of the Rome and Watertown Railroad, stated as bis opinion that the average should be divided between the roads traveled with more in winter and others. For liis part he was connected with a road much troubled with snow, and has noticed particularly the effect of the same upon tires. Mr. Little was of the opinion that a report of the wear and tear of tires compiled from all localities of the United States would be the fairest way of deciding the matter. ! Another delegate expressed as his opinion that a 3-inch tire was the best for a freight, and a 2J-inch tire for a passenger engine. Mr. Nesbitt was of the opinion that the matter should he carried over until next yqar, Mr. Hudson desired to know as to the wear of the flanges of the tire. He also referred to the effect of water upon tires in their manu facture, and called attention to. the fact that “ spots” often existed in tires, caused by the “ chilling nrocess,” which materially affected their durability. Mr. Meier, of the Kansas Pacific Railroad, remarked that on his road, running through the plains, where high winds prevailed, that the flanges wore out sooner than on othei portions of the road. Mr. Tour, of the -Hannibal and St. Jos. R. - It;7 stated that the-use -of-the “ swing • beam’ 1 truck was a great protection to the tires, and also advocated the nse of the three-inch steel tire, averring that in all his experience the thicker the tire the greater the wear. He had engines of 28 and 33 tons weight, but as yet liaa been unable to discover any difference in ihe wear of tires from diflerence in weight. On roads like the Pennsylvania Central the smaller the wheel the bett&r the engine, jon account of the hills, but for general use the five-foot wheel he deemed the best. Mr. Brown, of the Erie li. R„ moved that the Convention adopt for fiifl'oot wheels 21- inch tires, and for 5-foot wheels and those un der, 3-inch tires. ; Anamendmont was offered that tho subject be laid on the table. Mr. Little, of the C. and I. J. Railroad, hoped that the amendment would not prevail, as it was of vital importance that some stand ard size be adopted. ! Mr. Burke, of the Memphis and Charleston, desired to know whether, if the resolution passed, all present would consider it thoii duty to use the sizes adopted and no others. The President here remarked that the amend [ ment was not debatable. Mr. Brown then withdrew his motion, anc the amendment fell. Mr. Hays hero remarked that Butcher’s tires, of England, were used in Canada, of which out of eight setts live were broken ; whilst of those used in the United States,made by William Butcher, one in three gave out. Here the discussion on the subject ended. The Committee on Balance or Anti-Friction Slide Valves next reported, and stated many objections why the anti-lriction slide valves should not be adopted as a standard. The re port was received and adopted. / The Committee on Dead Weight of Rolling Stock asked for further time. Agreed to. The Committee on Boiler Explosions nexl banded in their report, which was read byitlie Secretary. It was a very lengthy document, but failed to give any real cause,or causes of boiler explosions, advancing only oft-repeated theories. The report was received and adopted, and the Committee discharged. ; Mr. Hutchinson,' of the Rodger’s Locom.cs tive works, was opposed to the use of Hy ' drauiic tests and after an elaborate explana tion, gave as' his opinion, that “ the procure ment of the best kind of material, theputting i of it together'! n the best possible manner, find the taking of the, best possible cafe thereof af terward” was the only real true method; of avoiding boiler explosions. These remarks were loudly applauded. I The Committee on Correspondence ire ported that several communications bad been received from Railway pressing their cordial approbation of the ob- I jects and aims of tlie Association, but the time 1 being limited, they recommended that the 1 reading of them be confined to those received ' from Messrs.

A committee of three, consisting of Messrs. Meier, Gregg and Hohn, was next appointed to draft suitable resolutions relative to the de ceased members of the Association. ..- A resolution was ofiered and adopted making it the duty of the chairmen of the different committees to have their circulars ready by the Ist of January, and that all an swers la, returned before the Ist of June fol- nlove (j that a committee of three be appointed to inquire into the feasibility of designating some particular journal in which discussions between members, or _ essays fur nished by them, might be published by the As sociation.
