our debt, aud who does not pay
whatever sum he may owe Us op

The PPELAYNo Observation-Disclosures
Ing all that has been said on this subject,
the distractions in Fifth avenue, at the en-
trance to the Park, continue to be a source of
the greatest Inconvenience and annoyance to
the public. After being entirely blocked up
for time. passage scarcely wide enough for
a single vehicle was opened for the space of
about four hundred yards with deep ditch
running beside IT, Tho other day gentleman,
In attempting to drive through this narrow
space, had his wagon upset and his horse
killed. The whole system on which the
laying Of these water pipes is conducted is a
bungling one. and, however we'll it may suit
the contractors. will always be source Of dis
satisfaction to the public. There is not another
city in the world where such . state of things
would be tolerated

THE Water SvrrLr ON WASHINGTON

TIE WATER SUPPLY ON WASHINGTON
HEIoHTs.-Great complaints are being made by
the residents in the upper part fthe island about
the delay that has takon place in the arrange
ments for supplying their houses with water
from the Croton reservoirs. The plan adopted
is that of tower OF sufficient elevation to
command tho highest part of the island, to
which the water will be forced up by steam
pumps. Censure has been cast on the Croton
commissioners for not having sooner perfected
these arrangements. But they are not to be
blamed for it. The delay has arisen in the
Board of Aldermen, and until it takes
action in the matter nothing can be done. VIII
the members of the Board be pleased to rccol-
lect that, however little they themselves may
need water, it is an indispensable requisite
with those living on the upper part of the
islands
