The Arteslan wen.

As the Artesian Well has, we suppose received its
ouetus, we as citizens would ask from the Council
full statement Of the cost thereof stating amounts
and to whom paid and labor performed for SAID pay
nient. It is not mere matter of curiosity that IN
duces us to thus come forward and make this appll-
cation; but belief that the information will be OF
much service in FUTURE should those who come after
us conclude to make another undertaking to furnish
this city with pure water. Accompanying the report
should be fair, honest, candid statement Of all the
causes that have led to the failure without any desire
to screen any one Eho has, through lack judgment
or other cause, lead to its abandonment.
When Mr.. Reed left the tubing standing for months
unmoyed we fully calculated the oxide OF the IRON
coming in contact with the wet sand and Shells would
form a cement around it SO solid that nothing could
start it again. The result proved we were not far
from correct. far greater error, and one that we
are induced to believe has led to its final abandonment
was the substituting sheet iron pipes rveted for the
cast iron ones :; the unavoidable projection of the
rives inside would eventually reduce the size Of the
rods in boring and weaken them so much as to finally
occasion their separation. We have heard of over
$50 feet Of rod now fast in the bore; of course some
thing must be attached to the lower end AS the de
posit was the same, we suppose it was the long foul

not bored down more than its length, and its OUTSIDE
edge catching on oweren of tubing, but one quartz
Of an inch, nothing could start it, This might easll
bappen from a greater pressure of sand on side
or stick turning it out of its perpendicular. 1t Gel
tainy was great oversight in selecting for the owe
seeing of this great work q man who knew as
i were, nothing about it-when men can be now foun
in Alabama who have been boring wells as long as tn

the city, and unfegnedy regret its failure; and
