duct is still rapidly progressing and Ii citizens de
sire Intend 10 avail themselves Of III benefits II would
seem 10 be the part of wisdom 10 making
engagements for that purpose II win no doubt take
time to mature such plan for the distribution Of water
through the city will meet the wants OF our citizens
and give general satisfaction and glad to notice
that IN that direction has been made in the
Board Of Aldermen. Last Monday evening MI Thomas
Miller introduced joint resolution requesting the mayor
to apply 10 the President of the united States for detail
OF two competent engineers from the United States eng
neer corps To arrange and submit 10 this corporation
plan OF sewerage and drainage, and for supplying the
city and citizens with water from the government aqus
duct TO this proposition an amendment was offered
by Mr. Fisher, providing for the appointment of select
committee to visit other cities that may avail
selves of their experience this subject. After some
discuson the city fathers in the penitude Of their Wis
dom, rejected the amendment and laid the original
olution on the table thus deciding that they would do
nothing in regard TO the matter present We have
no doubt that the President would cheerfuly grant
the request Ii made, for the services OF engineers
perform the desired duty; and we can see no rea-
son why there should be any delay in reference TO
these preliminary steps 1T may be said that tho cit
zens, by their vote the water question in June last
have decided the matter for another year but there
may DO doubt whether the proposition clearly
and distinctly understood No could tell what plan
for the distribution of water would be adopted or to
what extent the city and property holders might DO in
volved in debt and for this it seems TO the
better mode to such lights may DO obtained from
the experience of other cities In the perfection of plan
and submit that plan to the people, who would then
know what they voting In this case, the
sent Of Congress being obtained special election might
be held and IL the vote was fayorabe--and who can
doubt that, with suitable project before them would
DO ?-we might within six eight months be blessed
with abundance Of pure water, We trust the matter
not be suffered TO sleep but that the city councils
