houses with 13,000,000 gallons daily ; the East London
Waterworks supply 62,000 houses with 7,500,000 gallons;
the West Middlesex Company supply 20,000 houses with
3,000,000 gallons; tl:e Chelsea Waterworks supply 17,000
houses with 2,200,000 gallons ; the Grand Junction Com-
pany supply 10,500 houses with 3,500,000 gallons • the

grand total of 36,000,000 gallons of water running daily into
the metropolis from the reservoirs of the different companies.
The total number of houses supplied is 250,000, or 144 gallons
fo each house. The population of London and its suburbs is
2,500,000 persons; if they all consumed an equal quantity
of water, it would be equal to 14 gallons daily, or 5,110
gallons yearly to each person. The yearly consumption of
water in London amounts to 13,140,000,00 gallons ; this
immense quantity of water would supply the whole popula-
tion of Great Britain and Ireland (30,000,000 persons), with
one pint per day for ten years, or the whole population of
the known world (9,600,000,000 persons) with one pint per
day, for twelv'e days. Supposing this quantity of water wag
in one reservoir, With a spout at the bottom, so that the
Avatar could flow at the rate of four gallons per minute,. it
st,Ould require 5,550 years; or as long as the world has been
crested, to empty it, and the weight of the water *412141-be
46,028,571 tons.
