the Tories.
The town of Southampton is about to be supplied with
water by means of an " artesian well," which is now boring on
the Common. The situation chosen is above the level of the
spires of the churches. When they had sunk the well fifty feet,
they arrived at a pebbly beach (formerly a sea beach), co-
vered with drift-wood, bored by the marine molusca or worm.
The town of Cowes, which is now supplied with water by
water carts, which are the greatest possible nuisance, as the
streets are constantly blocked up with them, it is in contem-
plation to supply with water in a similar way, the water ob-
tained by artesian wells being much softer and purer than that
obtained near the surface.
