writer maintains very emphatically that the evil re-
quiring remedy in regard to the irrigation (if we may
so express it) of the capital of England is, not the
deficiency but the distribution of water supplied to
the different dwellings of its inhabitants. And it
must be remembered that the individual who utters
this assertion bases it upon facts to which from the
mere circumstance of their publication he challenges
all contradiction. Besides it should be kept in mind that
as Chairman of the Grand Junction and Southwark and
Vauxhall Water Companies, Sir WILLIAM CLAY is
peculiarly qualified to pronounce an opinion upon the
matter under discussion. In direct contradiction, there-
fore, to the prevalent assurance that there are no less
than 70,000 houses, containing from 600,000 to 700,000
persons, without any supply at all, the pamphleteer
avers that, on the contrary, there is not in the world,
perhaps,rany -city so lavishly supplied with this essential
element of existence as the metropolis of the United
Kingdom. While the supply of water to Notting.
ham (with all its " breweries, dye-works, steam-
engines, inns, and other places of large consump-
tion,") may be estimated at an average of twenty
gallons per head—while that of Glasgow is considered
to amount to just thirteen gallons per head—while
Greenock and Paisley are supplied at the rate of
merely twelve gallons per head—while Philadelphia
is enabled to consume at the rate of sixteen gallons
per head—in one district of London alone a supply
of twenty-eight gallons per head is given to the
inhabitants by the Grand Junction Company. Alto-
gether, throughout the British metropolis, the average
amount of the water supply may be moderately
estimated at about twenty-three gallons per head
to its population—and this, too, making every
allowance for the enormous quantities of water
consumed in watering the roads, in flushing the
sewers, and in supplying the different manufactories.
The mean quantity yielded to the inhabitants of
London per month by the different incorporated
companies during the past year is stated to be
exactly 1,355,790,047 imperial gallons—or at the
daily rate of 51,979,171 gallons for six days in the
week, Sunday supplies being only occasional and in-
termittent. Spreading the consumption, however, over
seven days in the week, it is estimable at the mean
daily rate of 44,573 919 gallons.
After enumerating these incontestable facts in
regard to what we have termed the " irrigation " of
the metropolis, Sir W. CLAY takes into consideration
two very important questions, namely—What supply
is required for the wants of the inhabitants, and,
by way of comparison, what the quantities
supplied to other towns. Upon the latter
particular we have already been suffici-
ently explicit. With reference to the former
we shall, having an eye to the force of the point
under discussion, allow the intelligent pamphleteer to
speak for himself. Having quoted from the " Report
of the Commissioners for Inquiring into the State of
Large Towns and -Populous Districts," to the effect
that in all cases where an ample supply can be pro-
cured " it ought not to be calculated at a less rate
than twelve gallons per diem for each individual of
the population," Sir WILLIAM CLAY gives the follow-
ing result of an experiment made by himself with
scrupulous regard to its accuracy :
" In a large household in the country where, from the
water required for daily use being pumped into the
dwelling, not by manual labour, but by water-power,
there is no motive for economizing the consumption,
where there is a warm bath, and both hot and cold water
laid on to the upper floors, the mean daily supply for ten
weeks was at the rate of 134 gallons per head. The
number of inmates, including the members of the family
and servants, was twenty-four."
Thirteen gallons and a-half is here formally pro-
nounced to be ample supply per diem for any indi-
♦idual, not only for using the water as a beverage,
but also in the way of ablutions, even to the extent of
diurnal baths. Thirteen gallons and a-half—
and London is supplied with water at the rate of
actually twenty-three gallons per diem for every
individual! Twenty-three gallons per day for every
one of the inhabitant;, and yet it is declared by
many that the supply of water to the capital is
deplorably insufficient—so deplorably insufficient,
indeed, that 70,000 houses, and from 600,000 to
700,000 persons are conceived to be altogether with-
out any reasonable supply whatever.
Prefixed to these arguments, Sir W. CLAY has
given us at the very commencement of his
pamphlet an historical account of the rise
and establishment of the various water corn
panies of London. According to this chapter o
the brochmre, it appears that the first water-works,

the first structures capable of being so de-
signated, were built by a Dutch engineer near
London-bridge, in the reign of Queen Em-
__

ZABETH. These works, having existed for
250 years, were purchased in 1822 by the New
River Company, originally founded in 1613, during
the reign of King JAMES 1., by Sir HUGH MYDDLETON.
In 1723 was established the Chelsea Company; in 1810
the York Buildings Company; in 1807 the East Lon-
don Company; in 1806 the West Middlesex Company;
in 1810 the Grand Junction Company; in 1822 the
Southwark Company ; in 1805 the Vauxhall ; in 1785
the Lambeth Company; and at length, in 1828, in
consequence of some serious inquiries into the quality
of the water supplied to London, it was found neces-
sary for the different companies to construct
enormous reservoirs for deposit and filtration. The
result of all which movements has been that London
is at this day supplied with water by five companies
on the north and two on the south ; the former being
the East London, the West Middlesex, the Grand
Junction, and the Chelsea, the latter being the
Southwark, and the Vauxhall.
Now, the precise purport of the arguments ad-
vanced by Sir WILLIAM CLAY is this—not, of course,
as may at length be conjectured by all those who
have read the foregoing statements, that London is
insufficiently supplied with water, but that the
lavish supply already yielded to its inhabitants
should be more equally distributed.

The suggestions made upon this head by the pam-
phleteer are among the most valuable portions of the
present effusion, and are of such a practical character
as to deserve the consideration of all the land.

lords of the capital. To them we especially
would call under consideration the reasoning
contained at the close of the second chapter. A
due attention to the advice of the pamphleteer would,
we are satisfied, prove advantageous at once to the
pockets of . the minority and beneficial to the health
and comfort of the majority of the population.

WYNYARD-PARK, JAN. B.—Lord Seaham continues
as well as could be hoped for under his painful and
distressing accident. The ball to the county on the
17th inst., the festivities intended, and the numerous
visitors to Wynyard-park this month, have all been
put off in consequence of the late unfortunate occur-
rence. The family remain in much anxiety and
deletion.

DEA= OF LIEUTENANT WAGILORN, R.N.—We
regret to announce the sudden and unexpected death of
the gallant pioneer of the overland route, at his resi-
t dence, Golden-square, Pentonville, yesterday,' in the
49th year of his age. Mr. Waghorn had returned only
on Christmas-day from Malta, where he had been re-
siding a short time for the benefit of his health, which
had been considerably impaired by anxiety of mind,
arising chiefly from pecuniary engagements, con-
tracted in his prosecution of the Trieste experiments in
1846, and which liabilities the devotion of all his means
and the sacrifice of his entire property were inadequate
to liquidate. Independent of the main incidents of his
history in connexion with the Indian overland enter-
prise, which has immortalized his name as one of the
greatest practical benefactors of the age, his career had
been a most extraordinary one, full of the strangest vi-
cissitudes, and abounding in evidences of character in
every way worthy of enduring commemoration. Of the
pension lately awarded him by Government be lived to
receive only one quarter's payment, but we make no
doubt that the same considerate feeling which originally
prompted that grant to so eminent a public servant will
suggest the propriety of its continuance to his widow,
whose now straitened circumstances are principally
attributed to her husband'a high-minded endeavours to
discharge, in his private capacity, obligatious incurred
on the faith of what he believed to be a permanent re-
tention of his services by the Executive and on behalf of
the community. His death was occasioned not so much
by any specific disorder as by the general break-up of
the system, though the wreck of his iron constitution,
and his irrepressible energy, offered so great a resistance
to the inroads of debility that it was thought to the last
he would rally, and his dissolution was attended with
great pain and suffering.
MARVELLOUS ES(JAPE.—A railway accident occur-
red on Friday, in Messrs. Headford and Sage's brick-
yard, Upper Easton. A son of Mr. James Headford was

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
It is admitted on all hands that on the La Plata
question the Ministers have achieved a signal success,
the more signal because M. DARU, the reporter to tl,e
Committee, rejected, in the name of the Committee,
the order of the day motive proposed by M. DE RANCE,
stating, as the ground for such rejection, that it bore
too strong a resemblance to the plan proposed by the
Government. The Ministry has therefore beaten, by
a majority of 38, the coalition of the Mountain,
the Legitimatists, and the Orleanists, supported as
that coalition was on this question by the eloquence
and influence of M. Minns.
The Patrie announces that a force of 2,000 men
will be sent to the La Plata to support the negotia-
tions with Rosas.
General LAUITTR, the Minister for Foreign Af-
fairs, has disavow‘d the note which appeared in the
Napoleon; he admits it was sent from his office, but
it was sent without his knowledge or privity.
The Committee on the budget met on Monday to
receive the report of the subcommittee appbinted to
examine the Paris and Avignon Railroad Bill, pre-
sented by the Minister of Public Works.
After M. BERRTER read the report of the sub-
committee, the Committee resolved to propose to
grant the construction of the road to one or two
companies on lease for ninety-nine years; but in case
it should be granted to two companies, the works on
the two sections must be executed simultaneously.
The State will guarantee interest on a capital of
260,000,000 f. at 5 per cent., and the profits are to be
divided with the Government after the dividends shall
have exceeded 8 per cent.
The Committee charged with the examination of
the credits for the completion of the tomb of the
Emperor, assembled on Saturday, to come to a definite
conclusion as to the printing of the accounts relative
to that subject. It was decided that the opinion of
the minority, and the report of the three members of
the Court of Accounts, shall be immediately distri-
buted to the Assembly, with the report of M. DE
LUYNES. It is said that the Committee expressed a
wish to publish the reply of M. VISCONTI, the archi-
tect of the monument, to the report of the Committee
formed by M. LEDRU ROLLIN, in March, 1848, but,
on the advice of the President of the Assembly, it
has confined itself to the publication of the documents
pointed out in the vote of the Assembly.
General LARRIN died of apoplexy on Sunday.
Admiral &sums; has arrived in Paris.
The Assembly met yesterday, and M. Durns
resumed his seat as President. The Bill authorising
the dismissal of primary slhoolmasters by the Prefect
came on for discussion, and was carried by a majority
of 352 to 208. This is another Ministerial victory over
the Mountain and Legitimatist coalition. The discus
sion of the separate articles of the law was fixed for
to-day. In the course of the sitting General
D'HAUTPOUL, the Minister of War, laid on the table
a Bill for increasing the pay of the non commissioned
officers in the army by twenty centimes a day.
The PRESIDENT of the Republic, on the report of
the Minister of Marine, has conferred the decoration
of the Legion of Honour on twenty naval surgeons,
as a recompense for their exertions and devotedness
during the prevalence of the cholera at the various
naval ports.
" We have announced," says the Constitutionnel,
" that General LAWGESTINE had taken his departure
for Valenciennes. The fact is exact, but the General
was obliged to stop at Douai, in order to proceed
to Cambray, it being in that garrison that is quartered
ble acts have taken place, but

some noncommissioned officers. The facts are of
such little gravity that General LAWCESTINE, although
furnished with unlimited powers, has only proceeded
to a general inspection of that regiment."
The following appears in the new journal, the
Napoleon :
__

"-Of two things, one; either the republicans have de-
ceived the people, in preaching to it for forty years that
the application of their principles would lead to the ces-
sation of all evils and of all political complications;
or they deceive it now, in telling it that the application
made by them of these great principles has changed
nothing in the vices and abuses of the monarchical
regime. We defy them to get out of this dilemma.
But the truth is, that for many the Republic was not
an end but a means. How without that explain their
conduct since Dec. 10? The republican opposition to
the old Bourbons, these living types of Divine right, or
to Louis Philippe, that representative of royal and Par-
liamentary usurpation, may be conceived, but it cannot
be comprehended with respect to Louis Napoleon Bo-
naparte, elected, proclaimed, and recognised, as the head
and President of the Republic. The reason is that the
Republicans of the ?milk, not very consistent with their
former convictions, are so with their rancour, and it is
not without bitterness that they behold authority again
in the ascendant, they who, after having seized on
power by surprise, kept it like eunuchs, from riot to
riot, from insurrection to insurrection, and only laid it
down when ordered absolutely to do so by the nation
consulted. The Republicans, disappointed but al-
ways struggling against universal suffrage, against a
single Assembly, and against the responsible President,
all of them things which were, however, their conquest
and the triumph of their own ideas, pass without ceasing
from one Utopia to another, until Socialism becomes at
last the final expression of their chimerical ideas.
Where is this struggle of the Republicans of the eeille
against the first universal suffrage which the Constituent
Assembly and the Constitution gave_to lead us? Against
the second universal suffrage which gave us a responsible
chiet of the popular name of Napoleon? Against the
universal suffrage which made the present Assembly
as an amendment of February? Against France, in
fine, which did not accept the Republic and the Repub-
licans but as an experiment? The acts of anger of
the ambitious Republicans against the President are
so many political faults ; they complain of the reaction
which they created by their acts of yesterday, and their
acts of to-day would call for a monarchical restoration
of some sort or other? Louis Napoleon Bonaparte could
alone protect then? against old remembrances and recent
tears. But such is the passion of exclusive parties that
they want to gain all or lose all. Washington and the
First Consul Bonaparte met with the same interested
enmity. The virtue of the first disdained them ; the
glory of the second crushed them. The difference be-
tween the United States and France regulated the diffe-
rent conduct of the:two great men, equally undervalued.
Will Louis Napoleon be free to
choose between these
two models? The Republicans will decide."

A telegraphic dispatch, dated Berlin, 7th instant
(in the Kolner Zeitung), states that the crisis is
over, and that a Roy al message to the Parliament
was expected, proposing several modifications of the
Constitutional Charter, and engaging the KING'S
word to the final acceptation of it. Another
dispatch of the same date bears witness to the im-
portance of the crisis, which, it would seem, is not
yet over, for it states, that the Royal message was
held back by some trifling obstacles, but that it was
sure to be sent to the Houses before nightfall. The
Minister of Home Affairs was at the time closeted
with the KING. A third dispatch, of 8 o'clock r.m.
of the same day, states that the message had not been
sent.

the French legation at St. Petersburgh, arrived a 1

A Vienna letter of the 2d, in the Independance of

The German Reform states that part of the gar-

The Cologne Gazette states that the Austrian

between Messina and Malta, and that an English

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEW
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet;
prices, however, remained firm at Friday's quotations.
The sales were estimated at 4,500 bales, principall3
American and Surat, 1,500 of which were taken on
speculation.—Railway Shares were very inactive.
The Corn trade in Mark-lane to-day is dull, at Mon•
day's rates.
The steamer Hibernia from New York has been
telegraphed, and her advices are expected in the coarse
of an hour. By telegraph we learn that the President's
Message was of a pacific character in reference to the
Nicaragua and other questions, but we regret to
find the protective tariff policy in favour with
the Government. Congress probably may take a more
enlightened view of the matter, and the comparative
success of free trade here will not a little assist the ad.
vocates of log► duties. Private letters concur in stating
that there was seldom greater prosperity in the Unitea
States than there is at present.
The Hamburgh mail of Friday last advises us of tht
continuance of speculation in coffee, which was again at
fuller rates. Sugar also was firm. Money was abun,
dant, and bills of exchange on London were in demand
at 13 Bf, and scarce. Funds and Shares were steady.
The Swedish troops were preparing to evacuate
Schleswig.
At Frankfort, on the bth inst., Austrian Bonds were
(Noted 85/; and at Vienna, on the 4th, the Metallics
were 95 3 16.
At St. Petersburgh on the 27th ult. business was dull
both in imports and exports.
A statement of the two great Brussels banks makes
the note circulation 46,916,995 francs, and the discount
of the three leading establishments amounted on 6,94
bills to 6,833,272 francs.
The present aspect of affairs in the City
is still favourable to buoyancy and confidence, and
the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury
have given notice that the actual surplus revenue of the
United Kingdom for the year ended the 10th October
was 1,211,845/. 55., and that, including the sum arising
from donations, &c., the Commissioners for theßeductiun
of the Debt will have at their disposal 306,748/.
9s. 10d. to be applied during the current quarter
to the redemption of stock. It is a significant
fact to which we would call the attention of
our readers, that Stock is to be purchased
and not Exchequer-bills, even in part, as on many
former occasions. These little signs are worth attending
to by such as take an interest in the anticipated reduc-
tion of the interest on the Three per Cent. debt.
The favourable accounts from France and America,
the renewal of purchases of stock for the Sinking Fund,
some Savings Bank purchases, and the general abun
dance of cash, with the fact also that a leading
broker, who sold largely eight or ten days
since, and was expected to deliver on the account
day, yesterday afternoon took in some amount of stock,
and paid a comparatively high rate of "continuation,"
give still greater confidence to the Bulls. One of the
first discount houses is indisposed for the preseat to
take in any further lodgments of money even at 1/
per cent., but it is atilt a matter of controversy
whether the Bank of England will to-morrow re-
duce its minimum charge. It is in reality of no
importance, for the Bank is affording accommoda-
tion at present in a private way, and by loan, at less
than its official minimum for discounts. Consols have
been 97i / for Transfer, and 97/ I for Account. The
New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have touched par,
and the Three per Cent. Annuities have been 971 to
Bank Stock has further advanced, being 207 to 209.
India Stock is 265 to 262. Exchequer-bills
have been quoted 595. to 625., and India
Bonds have touched 100 s. premium. The mana-
ger of the Royal Bank of Scotland has arrived in
town, and the speculators in the funds interpret his
visit into one connected with the investments of the cor-
poration. This of course must be mere surmise.
In the Foreign Market prices are naturally buoyant
after the example of our own funds. Spanish Five
per Cents. have realised 191 /, and the Three per
Cents. 37/ /. Portuguese Four per Cents. are
36/ to 37. The intention of the United States
Government to insist upon payment of the sum
claimed of Portugal for mercantile losses, is
certainly unfavourable to this security. Brazilian
small Bonds have be en quoted 88k /. Equador
Stock has been 3/. Peruvian has advanced to 621 to 63,
and Mexican is up to 29} /. Buenos Ayres has
realised 50 to /. Russian Bonds are worth 111. French
Five per Cents. are 94 50, with the exchange at 25 40.
Dutch Four per Cents. are 86 to I.
Railway Shares are still comparatively inactive, but
there is greater firmness in the quotations.
