IMPENDING CHANGEs.-In anticipation
Of a certain contingency it has been Or
dained that all the laws Of nature are
to be reversed. In that day the rivers
shall flow upward to the SUBMITS Of
loftiest mountain peaks and there the
ocean form. Then shall c%ongealment
only follow fiery furnace heat. Then
shall the granite hills of mother earth
float lightly on the ponderous air. Then
shall bitterness Of acridness intense be
food most palatable, sweets acid seem,
and acids rcdolent with sweetness.
Gold, silver, lead and copper shall then
ascend as now the morning mists, and
feecy clouds shall sink to earth's re-
hottest center. All this and moro shall
happen upon the fulfllment of the fol-
lowing prophesy, which we find in this
mornings Enterprise:
Democracy will accept the standard Of
the truth faith, and move forward with 4 re-
generated spirit to grapple with living ques-
tons.

Our CrOtOn Water.

The account of the mode by which the me-
tropolis is supplied with water, which we pub
lished at such length yesterday, must have
proved highly interesting to all our readers,
embracing as it did not only the minute history
of the Croton aqueduct, but the improvements
and additions to that important piece of en-
cheering skill which are in contemplation.
The future supply of water required for the
vastly increasing growth of the population is
matter of grave moment, and nothing which
can contribute to provide for the exigencies
that are inevitable should be overlooked.
At this time, with population of only one
million, the supply of twentyone thousand
nine hundred millions of gallons year is not
more than enough Cor the wants of the city,
and that is the quantity now consumed or
wasted. In twenty years the population will
he more than doubled, and it is not too early
to make provision for an increased water sup
ply. There is another point in connection
with the supply of water which even at this
moment requires consideration. We are de-
pendent upon the gravitation of the water flow
for its ascent into our dwellings, and in many
parts of the city it cannot be got up to the
higher floors at all. This should be obviated
by the liberal use of steam pumps employed to
force the water into reservoirs at sufficient
elevation to enable us to get the fluid to the
upper stories of the highest buildings in as
much abundance as on the lower floors. With
the limited area of Manhattan Island we are
compelled not only to live, but to carry on
many branches of manufacture away up
towards the sky, in the fifth and sixth stories,
and it is therefore indispensable that the Gro
ton water should be raised to that elevation
We throw out this suggestion in view of the
changes and improvements contemplated in
the construction of the new basins and reser-
voirs and increased facilities for conducting
water into the city.

Ireland is now agitated by war excitement
of a peculiarly nativist character, the troops
of Queen Victoria being in collision yesterday
with some thousands of the inhabitants in an
endeavor to quell formidable potato riot
which took place in the city of Cork. Our
cable telegram does not state what particular
condition of the potato induced the disturb
ance, whether it was too small or too dear, or
i'll favored, or being exported in vast quanti-
ties to England but we are simply informed
that the streets of Cork were filed with rioters
that the military were called out, charged on
the crowd and dispersed over three thousand
persons at the point of the bayonet, and that
incendiary fires of an alarming and damaging
character spread in the town subsequently.
This untimely emeute constitutes quite an
unexpected difficulty for Mr.. Disraeli-a
difficulty which that great statesman may not
for the moment know how to deal with. He
is perfectly at home on the Irish Church ques-
ton; but we doubt, with due respect for his
wonderful versatility of talent and inspired
sources of knowledge, whether he is fully
posted on the subject of potato riots and
street war in Cork. If not he will find himself
in very critical position during the period Of
the Irish elections, and may sustain great
loss in the number of his parliamentary sup
porters from that country, unless it may be
that Lord Strathnairn, the COmmander-in-
Chief in Ireland, can deal with the case
according to his experiences in India. The
potato having been introduced into Ireland
from America, it is to be hoped the Premier
will not discover traces of ''foreign con-
spiracy' in the matter, but say it is simply the
old Irish ''leaven' the ''unleavened bread
and the people.

The New DOminion-NOva scotia Votes Repeal.
Matters do not improve in the Dominion
Confederation. Attorney General wilkins has
claimed for Nova Scotia the liberty TO secede
when she wishes from the Union. II Nova
Scotia does not get what she wants before the
next session of the Legislature the Nova SEQ
tians, according to Attorney General Wilkins
will proclaim their independence, and IL not
he will claim the protection of the United States
Such is the position taken by so high func-
tionary as the Attorney General. 1t is repeal,
OF annexation-a serious position, and which
has been rendered still more serious for Eng
land by the result for, as we learn by our tele-
gram from Halifax, the Legislature Of Nova
Scotia voted the decentralization resolution
of the Attorney General unanimously yester-
day, two MEMBERSHIP "only Union members
in the House retiring before the division.
Mr.. wilkins closed his address with a perora-
ton, couched in most violent language, against
the bond with Canada
1t remains to be seen how Great Britain will
treat the case. Guided by the highest legal
authority III the colony, the local Legislature Is
really in rebellion against the Crown, and the
majority of the inhabitants support their rep
resentatives. Will the Queen concede the right
OF peoples to choose their own govern
mentsf She can scarcely do so safely for Ire
land would claim the benefit of the rule. Mill
tary force is dangerous, for il may provoke
revolution. The crisis is critical to the execu-
tive. General Butler arrived on the spot just
at the moment of the elbow up" with his reci-
procity papers, and may perhaps enlighten
both parties. We are not unprepared for a
rupture between Nova Scotia and the Domin-
ion; and IL is not to be denied that If the
Blue Roses do not receive active assistance
from the United States they may safely count
on q large amount Of useful sympathy.
