Fei Emu of # Hight we tech la Allegheny. We Hove time and again alluded to the disagreeable a Tato of insecurity 4n which the Titi Zens of Allegheny Are compelled to live and fihe really urgent necessity which exists Foi i of tee too to Fife and property in that City Lecent depredations upon the latter during the past Welc again brings the matter before the Public and they now begin to demand of their officers that something done. Within a few nights a number of houses not less than a Doz Teny do ave been entered and robbed and As yet suspicion attaches to no one. True no articles of great value have been missed but the facility with which Small thefts Aro committed indicates the Case w i which Moree Erious by perpetrated and with what Little Chanco of detection. We venture to assert that there is not in the United states another Cit Veas populous us. Allegheny m which the citizens Are not 1>etier guarded. We Havu no word of complaint As to the Day police for a believe obey discharge their duties faithfully but every one will agree with us that More that to stay the hand of the tim ass amp in the Torch of the incendiary and to Stop to depredations of min night marauders burglars and thieves a night police is required. We hear of Many offence a we. Both persons and property which would easily prevented the employment y f co Force. It need not Largo a Dozlin men would a Good Protection add the expense would gladly borne the to payers of our sister City. We Are informed that some of the residents who have suffered from this Desidery in us Are making a move toward raising a subscription for defraying the expense of a in Tible police Force to patrol the City at night and protect themselves and their k a neighbors. Will to intelligent Coli Neil permit this will they allow a Beavy expense which divided among All the Tai payers would not Felt to borne afew for a the advantage of the Many ? or will they take a immediate measures to secure out of the City Treasury the Protection so much needed ? we Are blow to impute the blame of this deficiency to any one but we have reason to know that the mayor of Allegheny City is in a certain degree responsible for it. He has uniformly opposed the appointment of a night watch and is of opinion that the City is As Well guarded without it. This May very Well o. An indication of the Confidence reposed in the officers of his Day Quot police bet it is certainly very Olario Gish inconsistent with the Progress of the age and the necessities of the people and we Liopo to May reconsider his views on this a abject and advocate the guarding of those whom in his of heal capacity it is his duty to watch Over. We sincerely Trust that this matter May taken in hands the new councils and that the mayor May second their efforts. Lot the citizens who Are so much interested impress the importance of this measure upon both and we feel assured that their complaints of insecurity will soon cease.
