*This Company is properly belonging to and under the patronage of the Michigan Central Railroad Company, and we under- stand that W. K. Muir, General Superinten- dent of the Detroit & Milwaukee Railroad, is about organizing a Steam Fire Company to be completely equipped at the Railway Company's expense.
Paid watchmen are stationed in several of the belfries of the city, that an immedi- ate alarm of fire may be made, and the thorough vigilance of the Department de- Berves corresponding appreciation from the
numerous Insurance Companies deriving revenue from our populous city.
Certainly the moral discipline, as well as the effective operative conduct of the Detroit Fire Department is deserving of praise, creditable alike to its members, as well as the fair name and fame of the city of Detroit.
MILITARY.
The numerous Regiments of the Michi- gan State Militia requires the publication of an occasional army list. The State ex- ecutive has proven itself a sorry patron of all such enterprises.

Band Master,
We observed with admiration the drill of this "Crack " Company recently. As a volunteer citizen soldiery the men, uni- form, discipline, and every circumstance. embraced within the Company, arrange- ments are superior and admirable. The Company was elite when it first organized, it cannot now anywhere be excelled; and the fine and richly appointed Band of the Company is also highly creditable. The members of the Company, collectively and individually, are popular citizens of social position and influence.
It is respectfully suggested that the sword worn by the band is too long-a curved sabre, - the point not descending much, if anything, below the knee-with fancy ivory hilt and silver-plated scabbard mounting, would add much additional lus- tre of appearance.
The Drum Major, we think, would look better in the uniform of the band, except the chapeau.
Shields Guards.
We have not been informed whether this Company is senior in its date of or- ganization to some other companies. The Yagers were organized in the same year 1853. We give the Shields precedence, therefore, by alphabetical arrangement.
This Company is volunteer, and inde- pendent of the State, except in their rela- tions to State authority as individual citi- zens. Uniform, arms, and appointments are the present property of the members of the Company, which is creditably of- ficered and disciplined.

This is a company of young men, in minority, armed with musketoons, and the members are highly expert at the evolu- tions, and in the manual and platoon. The uniform is becoming. The moral as well as official training of the young men is praiseworthy. The Captain is a son of Major Maclin of the United States Army.

RAIL WAYS. Michigan Central Rail Road.
This old Western Line, which, since its completion to Chicago in 1852, has done excellent service, not only to the State of Michigan, but to the Western country gen- erally as an avenue of travel, under the efficient and admirable management of its Superintendent, and the thoroughly sys- tematized action of its officers and opera- tives, has ever maintained the reputation of a very superior railway, while it is noticeable of the line that the managers have been liberally appreciative of the comforts and convenience of the traveling community, and the interests of commerce, it is gratifying to note that the annual re- port exhibits an increase of receipts, cor- responding with the increase of population, production, and consumption.
Several cities and villages of magnitude have grown into commercial and manufac- turing importance along its line. Among them we notice Ypsilanti; Ann Arbor (the site of the State University); Dexter; Jackson (the site of the State Prison); Albion (the site of the State Wesleyan Seminary); Marshall; Battle Creek; Ka- lamazoo (the site of the State Lunatic Asy- lum, and the State Baptist College); Paw Paw; Decatur; Dowagiac; Niles ; Mich- igan City (in Indiana); and Chicago in Illinois, together with a large number of thriving villages of minor, but by no means of insignificant importance, as re- gards population and commerce. It is the great common carrier to market of the products of one of the most fertile agri- cultural regions on the continent. The distance to Chicago, in Illinois, by the

Michigan Central Rail Road is 284 miles, through a picturesque and diversified coun- try.
It is an historical fact, which may be noted as a matter of Directory record, that on the 21st day of September, 1860, the Prince of Wales (the heir apparent to the British Monarchy) with his suite, including the Duke of Newcastle, the Marquis of Normanby, Earl St. Germains, General Bruce, and several other distinguished British officials, passed over this pleasantly graded, and elegantly appointed line to Chicago, in the State of Illinois, having expressed unqualified encomiums on the superior grade, precaution and general po- lice of the Michigan Central. Upon which occasion as a token of his appreciation of the attentions of Mr. Rice, the Prince presented that gentleman with a diamond pin of exquisite workmanship, upon which is inwrought the heraldic crest and motto of the Prince, who, we are informed, stated unreservedly his opinion that no English railway line existing could rival in its gen- eral details this model road.
The Directors chosen June 25th, 1860, are : John W. Brooks, Boston, Nathaniel Thayer, Boston.

Great Western Railway.
This road is laid through Canada West; terminus at Windsor, opposite Detroit. Length of main line through Canada, via Chatham, London, Paris, Dundas, Hamil- ton, Niagara, 229 miles, with branch to Guelph, 28 miles, and one to Toronto from Hamilton of 38 miles, and from Komoka to Sarnia 51 miles.
Ferry boat Union to and from Michigan Central R. R. Depot, foot of Third street, and ferry boats Windsor and Ottawa, to and from Detroit and Milwaukee R. R. Depot. Also, ferry boats from foot of Woodward avenue.
This line, in connection with the Michi- gan Central, Michigan Southern and De- troit and Milwaukee Railroads, transports to and from the East and the States of Il- linois, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, &c., the vast interchanging traffic, merchandise, produce and stock, to their respective mar- kets. The G. W. Railway has opened & continious railway communication between the remote West and the Atlantic cities, and is inestimably appreciated by the pub- lic for the winter facilities of travel, which, until the completion of this line, in Janua- ry, 1854, were not existing.
The Great Western extends its passen- ger and transportation connections, by the Grand Trunk Railway and by the several magnificent lines of steamers which navi- gate Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence to all the cities of Lower Canada, and to the Atlantic Seaboard, both in Canada and the United States, and by the New York Cen- tral, Hudson River, Boston, Worcester and Western Railroads, and by the New York and Erie Rail Road to New York, Boston, &c., the Great Western Railway connecting with all the diverging railway lines through Michigan, Ohio, Pennsyl- vania, New York, Massachusetts and Maine. To and from St. Louis, New Orleans, and United States territories west of the Mis- sissippi, this is a direct route from the New England States and the Canadas. The Company's stations at Sarnia and Hamil- ton, now provided with extensive grain elevators, renders that line the most eligible route for the transport of all kinds of grain from the great West to the seaboard.

Detroit and Milwaukee Railroad.
This grand North western Line, which is substantially and efficiently appointed, connects the several New England, Middle and Western States with the new State of Minnesota, and by its extension from Pon- tiac to Grand Haven, has opened up to mar- ket several very fertile counties in Michi- gan. Passengers and freight by this line are conveyed across Lake Michigan by a line of superb steamboats, built expressly for the route. By the liberal enterprise of this Company the more remote regions of the West are brought into almost marvel- ous proximity, in point of time, with not only the great cities : of the continent on the Atlantic coast, but by the regular con- tinuity of Ocean Steam travel with the several countries of Europe. Several branches from this great line must even- tually be built, in time, leading into the rich agricultural counties through which it runs in its direct course to its western terminus at Grand Haven. This line may properly be regarded as a continuation of the Great Western (Canada) Railway.
Verily these Railway Companies are great benefactors to mankind.
Including the more distant, points in Min- nesota to which Railway accommodation extends, and adding together the distances of the several lines by this route to the seaboard, we find the distance to be 1200 miles.
The Depot and offices of the Detroit & Milwaukee Railroad are on the extensive
docks of the Company foot of Brush st., which are probably 2000 feet in length. The present officers of the line are : President, C. J. Brydges. Vice President, Thos. Reynolds. Secretary, C. C. Trowbridge. Gen. Supt., W. K. Muir. Gen. Freight Agent, Jas. A. Armstrong. Master Mechanic, Benj. Briscoe.
Grand Trunk Railway of Canada.
The following precis of the organiza- tion and condition of this line will be per- used in Detroit and thronghout the State of Michigan generally, by the thousands of business men who are in constant re- ference to the Detroit Directory and Ad- vertising Gazetteer of Michigan. This magnificent line of Railway has its present termini at Detroit in the State of Michigan, in the West, and at Portland, in the State of Maine, on the shores of the Atlantic, in the East, and extends over eleven hundred miles, through regions unexcelled for pro- ductiveness and fertility of soil, general salubrity,and agreeable variery of climate :
Grand Trunk Railway.
One of the most important events to De- troit, and the entire west that has transpir- ed for many years is the completion of this great thoroughfare. The link from Port Huron to this city was opened for traffic on the 21st of November, since which time the business crowding upon it has fully equalled its capacity.
It possesses important advantages over any other road both for freight and passen- ger traffic. Being ef uniform gauge, no change of cars will be necessary from Sar- nia to Portland ; and being also under the management of one corporation, it affords better facilities for the protection of pas- sengers, and the preservation of their bag- gage than where they are required to pass over lines under the control of different, and perhaps conflicting corporations.
The harbor of Portland is one of the finest and most eligible in the world, and our immediate connection with a point of such importance is of itself a matter de- serving particular mention. Portland dis- trict, as appears by the official statement of the tonnage of the United States, made in June, 1859, then owned 115,098 tons of shipping, being the ninth port in the Un-

ion in point of tonnage. She is very large- ly interested in the West India trade, her annual imports of molasses exceeding those of any port in the United States. She of- fers, therefore, to the Western States, pe- culiar facilities for procuring at a cheap rate the products of the West Indies. The harbor is without any bar, and so easy of access that no pilots are required, and strangers, with the directions given in the American Coast Pilot, have brought their ships into it with safety. There are no port charges, harbor dues, or light-house fees, excepting the official custom house fees.
The Grand Trunk Railway is likely to become the avenue through which an im- mense tide of immigration will pour into Michigan. It will be a favorite route for immigrants.
This is therefore a matter likely to be of vast importance to our State, with a large share of her territory as yet an unbroken wild, offering tempting inducements to the hardy settler.
The completion of this stupendous bond of connection between the Eastern 'and Western States, Canada and Europe, will render markets available which were be- fore difficult of access, and enable far dis- tant countries to exchange their products at all seasons. The Grand Trunk may be called the first section of the Pacific Rail- road, as it already communicates with the Mississippi through Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin Railroads, and we expect to see the line completed from the Mississippi to California. It is not easy to form an esti- mate of the amount of traffic and inter- course that the 1, 150 miles of Grand Trunk Railway will bring to Michigan and the neighboring States. A junction has been already formed with that model of western lines, the Michigan Central, by which frieght and passengers reach Chicago and the numerous lines which diverge from that great commercial city. It is probable that another junction will be made with the De- troit and Milwaukec Railway by means of a branch from Port Huron to Owosso. In this case, there will be a direct line across Michigan, connecting with the Milwaukee Railroads by the ferry across the lake, and penetrating Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, and Oregon, by lines which have not yet been traced on the Railway Maps of the United States.
The officers of the main line are as fol- lows :
President, Hon. John Ross. Managing Director, T. E. Blackwell. General Manager, Walter Shanly. Secretary, J. Elliott. Supt. Western Division, O. R. Christie

Its branch to Monroe from Adrian is 88 miles.
Its branch to Jackson from Adrian is 47 miles.

Its Air Line Division from Toledo to ' Elkhart, is 133 miles.
Detroit, Monroe and Toledo Division, 65 miles.
Making a total of five hundred and thirty-nine miles.
It is connected with Detroit by the branch called the Detroit, Monroe and Toledo Railroad; which has its office on the dock of the Detroit & Milwaukee R. R., foot of Brush street. The business of the D. M. & T. line is managed in Detroit by Mr. LEMUEL P. KNIGHT.

Street Railways in Detroit.
Railways are to be laid in four of the principal avenues of the city forthwith .- The indomitable energy of Captain E. B. Ward, R. N. Rice, General Superintendent of the Michigan Central Railroad, and oth- er public spirited citizens is engaged in the movement, and affords ample assurance that the charter to build will be no dead letter in such hands. These lines are to run through Jefferson, Woodward, and Michigan avenues, and Fort street.
STAGE COACHES ply on all the Plank Roads leading to Detroit. Information is usually obtainable at all the Hotels.
We should be glad to hear betimes from those stage coach proprietors. The public no doubt would value detailed advertise- ments as to time and place as worthy to be appreciated. The Directory supplies in- formation as much as possible without pay.
