Mr.. Greeley and Fourierism =.

NhHHIN6IVN, ID o, august =, IoI-.
Editor Of StGr:-Sir:- In your issue of Wednes-
day evening 1 have read your notice of an
association of "Founerites, who have estab-
lished a settlement called Friendship COmmu-
nifty" in Dallas county, Missouri, and the pur-
pose of which is to have all things in common,
men and women included.
The object of this is to-learn If Mr.. Greeley is
at its head, as he was of the first Fourierism
introduced into this country some forty years
since by Mr.. Brisbane, of Buffalo, New York,
OF which Mr.. Greeeys paper was the main
advocate and support. Is Mr.. Greeley still the
father of that creed project, and is il now being
resuscitsted for political capital, with pledges
that general distribution shall be made, and
all things hereafter held in common, "men and
women inclUded?" In such an event, who
would get, or what disposition would be IN ade
OF, the government bonds, state bonds, railroal
stocks, &C., &c. Respectfully, yours,

APPARATUS FOR WATERING STREETs.-A
new system of watering streets has been sub
iected TO various and successful experimental
tests in London. In one of these trials, one and
bali inch lead pipes were laid along close TO
each curbstODe, these subordinate pipes being
supplied from the mains. At intervals of two
feet the piTes are drlledwith holes from a six
teenth TO a thiTtysecond OF an inch, in groups o.
three, each of which is pierced at a different
angie. The apertures from the pipes comm and
the complete road, which in this case was OF
the width OF about nineteen yards. The water
was, OF course, supplied under pressure, with a
he Id oI about one hundred feet, and it was found
that shower of a quarter of a mile in length
could he commanded with a one and one hall
inch pipe. In another experiment with the sys-
tenn, central pipe was used in the middle OF
the road which threw its jets toward the curb
stones The pipes are protected by shields, and
provision is made for the surface water being
sent past the sides of the pipes u the bottom,
where it finds passage. The pipe is Of course,
upon the crown OF the road, and protected by
an asphalt covering.
