"'HeFe 'F"FFFJ tNV'
Gentlemen,
A number Of plans for draining the rear of the
city have at different times been laid eiorc the
public anu Tie different Municipal Councils of our
city. Two have been worthy of attention. LIST
that adopted by the Draining Company. 2nd the
eleva.ing OF the ground by means of the deposit
ot sand which would be lett by innudation from
the river. Both have their disadvantages. The
INST requires the eternat action OF draining ma
chimes, the sfernaI existence of bikes, sluces and
draining canals; and yet never rlds the country
OF low and damp soil, which must overflow and
become marshy during the rainy season. Tho
second plan presents the freat Inconvenience OF
The InundalIon oi the enyirons of the city, besides
the risk OF producing epidsmies and the immense
cost OF le'ers aud sIuices to Protect the lnhabl'
Ianls of tho cleared lands lying ostween t,ls and
