NEW RESERVQTI

R. AT EVERTON. —There are three new
at present in progress in Liverpool, in con-
nexion with the .water supply,---one at Park-hill, and
another at Kensington. The third reservoir, at Everton,
has_now been_ commenced. The site is in the fields be-
tween Audley-street and Whitefield-lane. There will be
two reservoirs— one on a lower level, the same as those at
Kensington, .and one elevated on a toner, for the purpose
of supplying the inhabito.nts residing upon the crest of the
hill extending from ,Kirkdale to Windsor. The lower
reservoir will have capacity of storage for six million gals.
of water • and the upper tank will contain about a quo
cf a million u
of gallons. The whole establishment will
cover an area of 10,000 square yards. The plans are by
Mr. Thomas Duncan, the water engineer, under whose
superintendence the works will proceed. We believe
that the total cost will be about £25,000 ; and the con-
tractors are Messrs. A, and G. lielme. There will ba a
communication between the reservoirs at Keesington,
Park-hill, and Everton, so that, in case of deficiency of
water in any particular district, a supply may be drawn
from the -others.

TUE EMIGRANT SHIP FALCON. --Messrs. Gibbs
Bright and Co., on Friday, received a letter from the
cabin passengers (twenty-five in number) on board of their
Australian emigrant ship Falcon :—" Ship Falcon, at sea,
Monday, 13th June, 1553. G-entlemen, we, whose names
are hereunto annexed, with reference to the unfortunate
collision between this ship and the barque Zuleika, on
the night of Saturday last, feel it only an act of justice
towards Captain Taylor, to certify that up to the present
time his conduct has been, in all respects, irreproachable,
and marked by unceasing diligence and attention to the
ship and passengers. We beg to assure you that our
entire confidence in his skill and ability remains perfectly
unshaken, and we doubt not that by a continuance of the
same good judgment hitherto displayed, we shall yet make
a good and satisfactory passage. Of the event referred to
it is due to Captain Taylor to state that, throughout the
affair he displayed the most admirable coolness and
capacity, and gave his orders in a manner that coal_
manded the prompt obedience of his officers and men in
carrying oat is instructions with success. From the
passengers
of the accident Captain Taylor has been unremitting in
his endeavours and determination to save the Zeluika,
and he has the satisfaction of seeing that he is likely to be
rewarded by success, sided by the vigorous and willing
assistance of his own officers and men, and en
We should be wanting in common courtesy to your good
selves, did we riot take this opportunity of tendering to
you our best thanks for the very liberal and superior
manner in which the ship is provided, as well as for the
general accommodation and arrangements so far experi-
enced. We are, gentlemen, yours very respectfully,
