Re-organization of a Fire Company in Manchester.

--Hope Fire Company, No. 1, of Manchester, was re-organized on Tuesday night last under the superintendence of William Whitworth, Esq., Principal Engineer Manchester Fire Department. The following officers were elected: Emmett J. Mann, foreman; Henry Fitzgerald, first assistant; Andrew J. Wells, second assistant; James A. Gentry, secretary, and William Whitworth, treasurer. The company has already about thirty names on the roll, and is expecting large additions. A committee, consisting of Messrs. Whitworth, Pollard and Wells, were appointed to examine into the condition of the apparatus, and report at the next meeting. A committee was also appointed, consisting of Messrs. Mann, Fitzgerald and Gentry, to prepare by- laws and regulations for the government of the organization. The meeting then adjourned to Tuesday next. The gentlemen concerned in this movement merit great praise for their public spirit.
