A gentleman who resides near the Mill great from one place where the water has been drawn off that he cannot sit on his stOop and bear it. Now, we would suggest to the board of health that they pay visit to the reservoir, examine it and it's surroundings and report whether in their opinion, the rules of health have been obeyed.-[Post.] It certainly should not be allowed to continue in its present condition. The basin of the reservoir was never thoroughly cleaned and the old house, occupied by Italians while the dam was building, was left as it was and the ground flooded, filth and all. The pipes of the old and new companies were connected, Saturday, at the corner of Fairfield avenue and Main street and the water ran muddy.
 A bay horse, belonging to James w. Beardsley of Beardsley Park fame, ran away, Saturday.

Turning into Gilbert street, the carriage was wrecked against a telegraph pole and the horse was caught.
