FOrR You've LADIES DROWNED. On Thurs
day evening Of this week, seven young ladies
residing in Watervlle, went into what Is called
Crummett's Stream, about one fourth of mile
from Waterville Village, for the purpose of
bathing. and in a very few moments four VI the
seven found watery grave. The bank is quite
steep, and it is supposed that one or two Of them
ventured beyond their depth, and the others were
drowned in attempting their rescue. The alarm
was instantly given, and three of the bodies were
found short distance from the spot, floating on
the surface Of tbOwater, and the other was found
in the stream. They were not in the water over
30 minutes, and although efforts were made for
several hours to resuscitate them, they proved
Ruthless. Two of the young ladies who were
the other two Were daughters of Mr. - Grant a
Plano-forte manufacturer; now at work in Boston,
but who resides in Waterville. Mrs. Grant, the
mother Of two Of the girls, rushed into the water
to rescue them, and was herself saved with great
difficulty, nearly exhausted. Their ages varied
from IL to 4.-Bdngor Wig.

that her Colonial Assembly was the first to in

select for publication to-day, from among them,
the following brief one, which, as will be per-

tions
Editor Star: Although have no direct inter-
est In the welfare Of Washington. I would still
make suggestion to Its authorities and people
that will, probably, at some future day, he regret
ed, II not deplored, unless they give il attention
IL Is this TO commence, Immediately, the neces-
sary preparation to receive the water and use IT,
when II reaches the city, and to connect with that
preparation some general system Of drainage.
Very weighty reasons could be given TO sustain
the propriety Of the above suggestion, but leave
that for those who are interested
Whoever the writer may be, it is very certain
that he comprehends his subject thoroughly.
His words Of advice and warning are sound,
and should be needed and speedily improved on.
Whenever Washington city may be supplied
with the constant flow Of water through its
streets, to be incident to the supply by the Gov
ernnent aqueduct, extensive changes and i'm
provementS in its system Of drainage cannot fail
to prove necessary. Most Of them can and
should be anticipated; and to that end il is high
time that; as our correspondent suggests, those
In authority among US were commencing 10 pre-
pare the drains and sewers to receive the aoue-
duct water.
