CUSTOM HOUSE OFFICIALS AT LEwEs.

There was eonsldsrabe excitemtn ut in this
towu last week over the arrest of some OF It's
citizsns for smuggl gliDg~4lH
Whether thsy aie guilty or not we VIII not
undertake to say, but the loose manner IN when
the Custom .nuuss Officials here perform thel'
duties ia certainly very inviting to smug9irrs
aud no one but them ought to be bilmsd for tins
commotion.
The orders OF the Treasury Department are
that all vessels from foreign ports arriving IN any
United States port or harbor OF shelter, (excep'
the one where she is destined to discharge hei
cargo) shall, as soon as possible, be boarded by
Custom House official, whose duty 1t Is TO care
fully examine all the vessels papero, and II the
manifests of the cargo agree certify TO them and
forward copy by mail to the place oil the yes
sells destination. The vessel is also TO be thor
oughy examined and matches sealed down.
This, in a measure, prevents smuggling, bu'
the government took extra precaulion IN this
harbor, viz appointed night inspector and
two men 10 patrol the beach during the night
Also an office was built on the beach so that one
of the inspectors would be on the watch all the
time. The office has never been used.
In the future let the Custom House officers dc
thsr duty properly and the people will not be
troubled with the United States Marshals mol

WILMINGTON. DEL. JULY 40. 1874.
Alar armists-The Water Supply Short.

The Republican either suffers itseli to be I'M
posed upon or endeavors to impose upon its
readers credulty. IL says
"A NEW BASIN The construction of a new
basin will soon become imperatively necessary
as the present basins only hold a supply equal
TO one halt days consumption. In other words,
II the pumps were allowed TO remain idle for q
few hours the city wonld be left without water
a lew days ago the Rep"Jican said We had
but one days supply of water-now 1T has got
down 10 half days supply. This might be
truly alarming if the people were SO nervous as
to allow themselves TO he scared into receiving it
IA truth.
After the immense sums that have been ex-
pended during the past two years by the Water
Department We 0rs told BY the organ Of The
Council that the pumps might all give out at
once, and ia that event we would have enough
water TO supply the city but one single halt day.
This is all "bosh.' The people of Wilmington
depended Gu the Tenth and Eleventh street ba-
sins with only one pump ior many years, and
were never subjected TO the frigtts that are now
attempted TO be imposed upon them. There is
usually enough water in any ono of the basins
to last the city half day. If economy is used.
Inclc are three or four basins and then there is
poside water enough in the mains 10 supply the
people another day In proof we cite the fact
that the city was supplied by the Eighth street
basin during the time the Eleventh street basin
was empty TO receive the Eleventh street main,
which took more than day to effect; and that
no fears were entertained then is proved by the
tac, that Captain Gallagher took additional time
after the main was put in to thoroughly clean the
bottom Of the basin of all the dirt and filth that
lad collected in number OF years. 1t was then
said that the new mains held nearly days sup
ply OF water. Nobody fears that all the pumps
will give way at once; and either one OF them
could supply US for week. with the water that is
IN the basins The Water Department want to
add men to its force before The election comes
round. We are convinced that the interests Of
the people demand no such outlay at present
and that as have row a supply o! eight mil
lions OF gallons of water per day. and our con-
sumption in summer is three millions and in
winter only Two and half millions of gallons
that it is extravaganza pure aud simple TO under
take to build basin now or for three years to
come At that time il might be found better to
change the whole systen of water supply as a,
present secured
