Fleming desired, before the passage of the Act, to make a statement In reference to tap Insurance Courplinlea, on which the gritire expense.. of the Paid Fire Department will fall, by its ad - option. He said there are some forty Local and Foreign In. eurance Companies in the' city. The estimated expense of a Feld Fire Depart. meat is said to be about /75,000. which It Is proposed to tax upon these Insurance Companies pro rata., Tea would be at the rate of pp y {2,000 each.; The greater number e Load Offices have a capital of $lOO,OOO, or 2,050 shares. A taxof $ 2,000 would be 11-? - per share of $5O.- The dividends, one year with an other, will not probably average 4to it per cent. peryear: or S to 12 per cent, at the highest. A tax of one dollar per share out of 0 dividend of 4 to e per cent. would be, on the first named, 25 per caut.—on the latter 165,' per centte•Which taxation Incomes i t s orWe te ar o ct ' of l e g islation. --es ne v er l l l 'a te . Government only takes 5 per cent. on incomes—quite a modest sum In romper. 111011 with the proposed Act He contended that If these Insurseo Companies were compelled to bear-all the expenses of . the Flee Department, they would, no doubt. oblige our citizens to pay higher rate. or Insurance In re turn; and in the end, those of us who take the precaution to hive our property insured against the elements will pe compelled to bear all the burdens of the Pao Department, while those whodn not .Insure' and we may intends fully one. half in this class) will reap all the ad. vantages without paying anything. For these reasons he was opposed to the last part of the awned fiection„ as reoom mended by the Committee, and offered the-following as a substitute: Sits. 2. That for the purpose aforesaid, It shall be lawful for said Councils to as. was and collect a special tax. - Mr. Morgan said the tax bad been axed at 234 mills, which would not throw • very heavy burden on the oompsunes— considerable lees than had been at end Isuggested. , The vote was then takon, which remit , fed in a concurrence with the Select Council by a large majority.

Mr. Mitchell said a great many citizens In tiihr ward, poor mon, had commenced the erection of buildings, nor IL-towing thoUw, and they now wished to Lave something done to allow them to go on with the work.

BBATH SCHOOL INSTITUTE INzetipsea by Dear Mutes—Dale. of Pastore to Sabbath Seam lc • BZOOND DAT.• The Sabbath School Teachers' /nail tufo of the United and Reformed Pres byterian Churches of Allegheny, met, pursuant to adjournment, In the First 11. P. Church, Seventh avenue,. yester day afternoon, at half-past two o'clock. Half an hour was spent in derotionalex ercises—Rev. W. J. Reed, In the Chair— which a number of members took part. At the close o r the devotional exerchsee, the Prealdent the Institute appeared and took the Chair. As there seemed to be a'disposition on tho part of the audience to occupy seats near the door, an Invitation was given to all to move towards the pulpit. The in vitation was accepted and a pretty general_ rush was made for the "front." - .On motion of Rev. Thos. 11. Hanna all Sabbath School' teachers and workers were Invited to talie seats as consultative members. Rev. Dr. Brown moved that all on side the communion of the United Pres byterian Church who were present and take an ;Interest In the Sabbath School cause be invited to sit as consultative members. Mr. Kerr gave a abort and Interesting account of the Franklin street Deaf Mute . Sabbath School. It has forty pupils, who are taught by deaf mutes, some of whom are educated, but somenot._ Archie Woodside, Superintendent • of the School, was introduced and gave lame interesting exercises on the black. board. Mr. Woodside used what hr known as the "word signs" in conveying his mind to the pupils. By one or two motions of hie hands he mini:lined aneh expresatons u the following: "God le Almighty," "God to allwise," "Some menace teamed," "God Is a Spirit," - dc. These Cigna were correctly read seal In torpreted bythe pupils—some of whore' were very young—who transferred their words, as above, to the blacabOard. Dr. Brown then made a short address, giving the origin and results.. of the Franklin street" Deaf Mute Sabbath School as an illustration of the frequent. ly experienced fact that great things grow out of anni) beginninga. The cir• numatances attending theprigin of this school have already been published, and we need not reproduce them here. It led to the organisation of the day scholia, which is now under the control or the Central Board of the city. 1 • Reports were teceired _frawdlfferent schools in the city and county, but they were so meagre that it would do loins- leo to the churches connected with the ustltute to publish them. Rev. S.B. deed opened the discussion on the'"Duties of P as tors to the Sabbath School." The pastor of the °engross tion should be the pastor of the Sabbath SOnool. It in his duty to addreas hla congregation, visit it, and see to its go. eminent. lie should disettarge the same duties to the Sabbath School. lie should be ex officio the Superintendent of the Sabbath School. But should noted as its Superintendent. He has work enough to do without It. Its duties are sufficient to occupy the epttre time and energies of the Superintendent. But the minister should see to It that proper teachers are gathered into the Sabbath school. He should know what books and papereare used to the Sabbath School. He should be more thane teacher.

Johnson was form erly proprietor of the St. Lawrence Hotel on Penn sleet, and it appears waif what ' might be termed a "fast man." The rapid rate at which he traveled through the world requiri - d fonds, and the conse quence was that a large quantity of Mr. Johnson's paper, which was endorsed by his father, Mr. Robert Johnson, of Wash ington county, and his brother-In-law, David Gilmore, of the firm of Gilmore, Straub & Co.. of Allegheny city, was. thrown upon the market. As the en damns were considered responsible men, the paper was current, but about the time some of It fell duo Mr. Johnson was net here to pay.lt and the endorsers declared that the signatures were not genuine, that they were forgeries. This statement brought to light the fact that there was about 114.000 of his paper on the market endorsed as above, all of which was de clared to be Brahma by the endorsers. The following is a list of notes held by dlflerent parties:. Union National Bank 11600. P. Ewing, Esq.., $l,OOO, Citizens' National Bank $2.000. 13. Hare $l,OOO. T.

Some weeks since It was ascertained that Johnson wart in Helena under the name of Silas Rich, and Mr. G. S. Head, i one of Johnson's victim., made informs don before the Mayor charging - Johnson with forgery, The information was re turned and by an order from the Court it was brought before the grand jury and a true bill found. A requisition was then obtained from Governor Geary on the authorities of Montana for Johnson Armed with this Chief Hague, accom panied by Mr. Brush, started for Monta na on secret service. They reached Helena a week ago last Thursday, having ridden live hundred miles in a stage coach. They found the Governor, Hon. J. M. Ashley, at Helena, and he furnished the necessary documents. They had already discovered Johnson there under the - name of Slim Itlech r . The Chief startled him by stepping up to him and addressing him In the presence of the crowd as "Mr. Johnson," and showing his warrant. An angry crowd gathered about displaying knives and revolvers, said that no man should take tho prison er away from there. Johnson remon strafed with his friends and said he was perfectly willing to come. The party left Helena a week ago last Saturday, and arrived here, as before stated. Mr. Samuel hfeCturkin made Infbrma- Son against Johnson yesterday, charging him with forging the endorsement of Robert Johnson and David. Gilmore to a note for $6OO, dated February 29th, 1868. The deponent bought the note of John Little, believing the endorsements to be genuine. . nit. Johnson was held for a hearing. He admits the debts but denies the charge of forgery. He save the notes are all genuine, and that if his creditors will give him time he will pay every dollar of his liabilities.. Tat COIIRTS. DLit : Het C ! urtAudgeg 'tampion MIA . Kir Natick.
