That JERSEY WATER PIPE.

Shifting the ResP0nsibility-The New Pipe 10
be Raised in Position To. Morrow
The grumbling in Jersey City and Hoboken on the
water question has apated somewhat as there is a
fair supply of water to every quarter of the cities for
one hour each day. II was expected that the Com
mon Council would entertain the question ar their
late meeting, and Alderman Thomas offered the fol-
lowing resolution In reference to the water:-"Re.
solved. That the Board OF Water Commissioners be
requested to communicate to this Board at its next
regular meeting, what means were taken to guard
against such an accident and what measures have
been adopted TO prevent recurrence OF itD
This resolution fully covered the ground, but no
sooner was IT offered than Alderman Sheeran took
up the cudge for the Water Commissioners and
with the help OF Alderman Eege defeated the resolu
tOn when IL was put to a vote. This extraordinary
proceeding furnishes sufficient evidence that the
'.ring" which the people defeated at the polls last
November is not yet entirely broken and there is
very bitter feeling In the matter. That any apollo
giss could be found for the Commissioners can only
be explained BY the existence Of coalition for re-
establishing the dominion OF the rngr at the next
charter election.
The work OF preparing the new pipe progresses
rapidly at Belleve. The machinery for raising the
pipe VIII be In working oruer by tomorrow MORN

A WATER FAMINE IN BOSTON,
The Supply of Manufacturing Establishments
10 DO Cut Oh Next Wednesday.

10 DO Cut Oh Next Wednesday.
BosToN, Jan. IL, 1871.
The Boston Water Board have announced that
In consequence Of the daily increased consumption
OF water they viii find IL necessary to cut on the
supply from manufactures on Wednesday next in
case there is no intervening rain In order keep
intact the supply for domestic purposes. 1t Is
obvious that In view OF the dearth OF water in the
lake, prompt and efficient measures must be taken
to prevent water famine.
The water at the lake Is four feet lower than It
was last year at this period, and tho consump ton
OF It seems to be greater this month than last,
which Is accounted for in the practice of many
people letting the water run night to prevent
Its freezing. The foot OF the conduit at the
lake Is fourteen feet under the surface at high
Watermark, and the water at the present time Ia
only about five and a half feet above the conduit.
Ii Ii should fall two feet more then the manufac-
turers VIII have to sufIerthaI domestic needs may
be supplied.
1t is estimated that the manufactures including
dlst!lleres sugar renneres and railroads, from
100000 10 1900, 900 OF the $4,000, 900 gallons daily
consumed, and should the order be issued shutting
OH the supply next Wednesday from Is, 900 to
10000 artisans, mechanics and WORKING men and
women OF all classes would be thrown out of en-
pioyment.
II the water falls below The mouth OF the conduit
al the lake engines or some other force Will have
TO be employed to Int II from the deeper places
In the lake. Such engines are not in readiness,
ana could not easily be procured. The lowest
point the water ever reached was in 1864.
Boston was then supplied. Now, without East Bos-
ton, the water Is down 10 within very few inches
OF that point, and at the recent rate OF consump-
tion the supply will last only two or three days
more. During the drought Of 1854 arrangements
were made to connect Dudley Pond with The con.
quit, but before the actual necessity came
ponds has actually been exhausted. So there is
nothing 10 rely upon except the lake.

THE TARIFF.
How the New Thing Vorks-BunglIng Some.


How the New Thing works-Bunsling Some.
where.
The revenue tarlf Of July H. 1870 which went
into operation the lst OF January 1871 seems to
have caused considerable trouble among importers
OF wines and liquors. The section relating 10 the
importation OF liquors reads as follows:-
Brandy and other spirits manufactured from grain
or other mate ials and not otherwise provided for
two dollars per proof gallon.
Under the Old law brandy paid three dollars per
gallon, and two dollars and half per gallon on all
other liquors. This law in force up to the lst OF
January, 1871 Importers in their circulars for the
ear based their prices on the new tariff as mean.
ing two dollars per gallon on all liquors. on the
Sd day Of January the new law took effect. Two
dollars per gallon was received for all liquors the
Custom House, and up TO two O'Clock on the after
noon OF the 9TH OF January this amount was re-
ceiycd as the duty upon all imported liquors. After
that time
IMPORTERS WERE ASToNIsnED
to learn that the Deputy Collectors fixed the rate on
haf the same rate as in the old law. The Col
lector was appealed to by the importers, VINO were
referred TO Assistant Collector Clnch who held that
only brandy provided for In the new tarl1r and
that the other liquors were provided Tor in the old
act and at the old rate. That this ruling was con.
may may be found in The the a iact that the the IaM bll
itself was Intended by Congress TO reduce taxation
GenerS snd ,h Genera schemes % now Minister to Eng
Means to whom the matter was referred, stated
thai The Dill as amended was a reduction, and in
fact worthy OF noiice is that under the present
ruling GIN and whiskey, Scotch and Irish, bought on
the other side at from forty cents to one dollar per
gallon pays more duty by fty cents per gallon than
French brandy which costs ten dollars in geld per
gallon in france. Many merchants find that this
hobbIe, Which is
EVIDENTLY A MISTAKE
either In the engrosslng OF the law or Its nterpre-
tatiCn by the officials here, causes great trouble.
Nearly all the importers have sold liquor according
to the terms OF their price lists, based the educ
ton OF the tariff. The government holds the Inn
porters' bonds and viii not release them until they
have paid the amounts claimed by the government
as duties neglected to be charged; wnile on
the other hand, the importers customers in
many many eases refuse TO pay an additional
among others-refuse to demand addi.ional
rates from their customers end state that they Will
stand py their bargains whether the government
breaks faith with them not. The Secretary of the
Treasury states that he will not in the matter
until the question comes before HIM on an appeal
from the Collector OF Customs here. J. H. Stedwell
