"His decided impression 10 regard

ses of the people, and by that term no

toward the Government at the time OF

decided efforts had been made by poll,
ticisns TO change that feeling since that
time, and he was afraid they had q
great deal OF success. He believed the
majority OF the people of Virginia
would still b loyal if it were not for
publishers Of papers and politicians
who, to certain extent, control pub
lie opinion. He believed many Of the
old politicians are engaged in promot'

there is any such organization in that
State, but, from tho conversation Of
some Of the most outspoken .of the So

they could again get up q secession

THE NBWEWATER PPE-A SERIOUS
BLUNDER SOAEwHRRE.-Now that one
half or more OF the pipe is laid, we be-
gin to hear talk about imperfeCtions in
the pipe and the question Is being
asked, why was the pipe not subjected
to hydraulic pressure. In view of the
fact that the city is making the inn
proVement at a very heavy cost, it is
contended by some that it. is penny
wise to have failed to subject the pipes
10 the usual test. We believe that the
utmost care has, been used in sCrutiniZ-
ing the pipes, and the trench has not
been filed until twenty-Eour hours
have elapsed aftertHrning on the water.
That length of time has been thought
sufficient to deVelOpe flaws II there
were any. Notwithstanding this pre-
caution however, a leak WAS discovered
opposite the premises of Mrs. List in the
First Ward, and on examination flaw
was found just back of the bowl. This,
we believe was remedied by shrinking
a band around the pipe. As the laying
OF the pipe progresses, 1t is being de-
velOped that the most careful scrutiny
Is insufficient to detect flaws, and the
increasing pressure Is proving that a
serious mistake has been made in not
applying the hydraulic test. Yester-
day section Of pipe near the stone
bridge sprung RleQk, and flaw over IA
foot in length was discovered, although
the Pipe had undergonet precisely the
same scrutiny that al the rest had,
Wethink the City Council should
have required. the pipes to have been
subjected to pressure at least three
times as great as that which they were
Intended 10 bear. We have examined
the advertisement for proposals for
making and putting down the pipe,
published December 9th, 1865, under
the impression that the order OF Coun-
Gil had there provided that the pipe
should be tested. Nothing of the kind,
however, Is either expressed or implied,
