rup STAGE or THE RIVER

THE STAGE OF THF RIvER-lNTER-
RUPTIoN TO THE WATER WORKS,
FACTORIES, &c.-During last night the
James river had risen eleven feet above
low water mark. Since then the water has
receded about one foot. News from points
above leads to the conclusion that the water
has reached its highest point here, and that
we may expect it to continue to recede
until the usual stage is reached.
The rise has, however, proved very dlsas-
trous to the business interests of the city.
Operations at the pump-house have been
discontinued, and the supply of water in
the reservoir has been exhausted. All the
tobacco factories, mills, &c.-indeed all es-
adjustments run by steam, not on the line
of the canal or river-have been standing
/ still all day for the want Of water.
In order not to be wholly without sup
ply Of water in case of fire, the chief OF
: the fire department. Mr.. Ainslie, ordered
the engines out this morning. and they
have been engaged ever since in forcing
water into the mains through the fire plugs.
They have been quite successful, and it is
believed that the supply is sufficient for
ordinary emergencies. .
As the river is falling, the water will
probably have receded sufficiently by to-
morrow to allow the pumps to work, when
the usual supply of water will be fur
nished.
Citizens should see that the hydrants on
their premises are closed, so that no water
will be wasted when it begins to flow.
These overcoming difficulties about a
supply of water should awaken the coun.
Gil to the absolute necessity of establishing
water works sufficient to supply the de.
mands of large and growing city.
