engine, through nozzle of II inch, threw
233 feet; the third engine, through nozzle
of inch, threw 1913 feet 10 inches. Other
engines threw shorter distances: whereas
the Minneapolis Water Works, through q
11-inch nozzle, threw 277 feet high, thus
greatly excelling the steam and hand en-
cines both in the volume of water and IN
the height thrown. In that city on the Sd
Of July last year fire broke out in the
Cataract House, which stands close to a
large lumber-yard, with three more lumber
Yards and numerous buildings adjacent.
The fire was under considerable Roadway
between the weathcr-boarding and lathinc,
from bottom to cornice. and bursting through
the roof of that big four-story house.
Being the Sd of July night, as there was
much noise in the streets the alarm was
not at first credited; but when the hose
companies arrived, we are informed "the
whole thing was drowned out, and the water
actually stood knee-deep on the floors of
some apartments where doors we're closed
and but little escape under the door
existed"
Minneapolis is city Of over $4,000 in
habitants, and has very much the same
water power rs we have here. Although of
recent date, it yet, on these accounts, very
much resembles Richmond. The difference
in the results of the fire there on the night
of the Sd of July, 1868, and the fire here
on the night of the 5th of August last is
very striking, and should bring very forci-
bly, before us the difference now existing
between our water supply and theirs.
Until further, l remain your, obedient
servant, RICHMOND.

By thus judiciously increasing the capa-
city of our mains we shall require only an
additional head of water from seventy-five
to hundred feet, to give our city the adj
vantages enjoyed by those cities of which
in my last letter made mention-as Brigh-
ton, Binghamton, &c. These advantages
will greatly exceed the outlay, as the secu-
rity of property will be enhanced, the rates
of insurance reduced, and the arduous du-
ties Of the fremen lessened and their efforts
rendered more effective.
In conclusion, in addition to the cities
before referred to, you will find in the Min
neapolis Tribune of June 18th of this year
very interesting account of the trial Of
the fire companies of that city and Of St.
Paul, in both of which cities they have
such an effective water supply as
we desire to see here. On the lst OF
June fifteen fire companies assembled on
grand parade. The whole city turned out
to meet them, and speeches were made by
many prominent men of the State. At the
conclusion of the speeches the different
companies proceeded to the canal at the
mills, where "a general trial took place,
which resulted in the triumph Of the water
works over the steam and hand-engines." !"
The following is the result:
The first engine, through nozzle ol
inch, threw $50 feet high; the second
