ohe Honorable the Common Council Of the City of New
Orleans:
Gendemen-At meeting of this board held on
the 2lst January, the following resolutions were
unanimously adopted:
Resolred, That in our opinion, the proposed

Improbable the adoption of any general or eff
cient system of drainage for the city of New Or.
leans.
ResOlced further, That the drainage Of the city
into said canal, provided the right could be OBJ
tanned from the corporations to do so, would con-
vert the same into q cess-pool, injurious 10
health and destructive OF the value of property.
The following resolution indorsing the report
of Mr.. L. Surgi, city surveyor, on the same sub
ject, was also unanimously adopted:
ResolUed, By the Board of Engineers for the
drainage of the city Of New Orleans, that the re-
port Of L. Surgi Esq, in the matter Of the pro.
posed Ship Island canal as read before this board,
be and the same is hereby fully Endorsed.
