Apartments of Commissioners, 9, New Palate Yard, February 29, 1828. Ssa.—We have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of pour letter of the 19th, referring to the interview we lately had with Rar., Secretary Peel, and conveying to us his opinion, that the main obieccs of (pug Compiled.* ere the deseriptino„ the quantity, arid the salubrity of the water now supplied to the inhabitants of the nietriipolivelsy the several Water Commies, and hts declining to • filrigiliu? It)* the Meet* Qf taking levels and snaking surveys, which we stated would have been necessary to enable us to decide upon valises plans for remedying the existing evils. We beg leave at the. same time to represent to Mr. Peel, that we have been laboriously occupied for the last four months in collecting a large mass of evidence relating to a much more extended inquiry than is comprised in the question to which be has now limited our Commission. This evidence we hoped would have prepared the way for our recoompendation of a practicable. and efficacious plan of supplying the whole of the Aletropolie with pure and wholesome water; an object which we cannot but esteem as of considerable importance, and which, as appears from the several petitions to Parliament. giving occasion to the present Commission, has been so loudly and to earnestly called for by the public. While proceeding in that course of investigation which appeared to us best calculated to satisfy the expectations of the petinoueris and of the public, we considered it a very material t bject to obtain the most correct knowledge of the true nature of Thames Weser, which has been so much the subject of complaint, in different parts of the River, from the mouth of the sea to Teddington, and for that purpose we were about tu - procure accurate analysit of the wa ter, taken front different places, atisi more particularly from.those whence the several Companies derive their supply, and in different states of the tide; but as, front the exereesions of Mr. Peers scene ments with regard to the nature of our Commission, conveyed fn your letter, we are led to apprehend that he may not sanction our ,proceeding further in the *guides we were undertaking, we beg tp be informed *beater the expenses necessarily attendant wads en investigation will be defrayed by Government, as we had on. .ginally reason to expect they would be, from the letters of Mr. ..Spring Rice to up of the eotll and tails of November last. With regard to the mere questions of the descriptions and quan tity, and alleged quality of the water supplied by the Companies, we are already in possession of sufficient materials for answering these questions, as far as can be known from information supplied bytbe Companies themselves, and from such further evidence as we have examined. But with regard to the salubrity of the water, it will not be pea. 'sibk for twto give any opinion which shall be satisfactory either to the Public or ourselves, unless we are furnished with the informa tion to be derived front the several analysis of Thames Water, of which we had already traced the plan, and taken ail the preliminar y slept to carry into effect.— We have, &c.
