al, of ssusntssn fee. as there is at the

fall Of seventeen feet as there is at the
City-mill there Is no occasion for tur-
bine. OVershot wheels are always the
cheapest and best where the fall Is SUI
acien.. Then again the city only mas
a right to II, 7,OOO,o0 gallons daily and
as it takes ten gallons to force one into
the reservoir with q turbine there is
not much water to spare. Had the
turbine been the most available and
the most eoonom ical, it is strange that
none of the other mill owners in the
city had not found it out, before the
water co nmittes tried the experiment.
There has been a great mistake made
by somebody in the calculation, for q
turbine-indeed We are inclined to
thiuk that thoss who made the ealcula-
ton had q very defective knowledge OF
hydraulics. We are informed that al
lowances we're made for the seventeeen
feet fall OF water as 80 much propelling
force on the wheel, when the fact is the
fall is a source OF weakness to turbine.
The turbine is propelled by the simple
weight OF the water upon the aanges,
and not by the sudden dash from a pre-
cipitous height which striking tn.
harges glances of without leaving any
motive power. Another test Of the
wheel Ia to he made this morning but
the general impression is that the
wheel is a failure and the city is in for
some $l8, ,O0oloss in consequence. Now
then, let the committee turn their al
tention to putting in an overshot wheel
aud do it as soon as possible, before
something happens to the old reliable
Woithington.
