all the material points nerossary to understand the localities it is also ascertained that there ts nuw no outlet at the eitre- mity of abridges day into tho lake though it u quite ob ykjus that there has formerly been onr sufficient to confine a tradition of the indian that they formerly entered the bay from the nit ward in that direction pttflflg through the marsh gea bay from 2 to 14 inched and

portion of tho oiarah dry and qlso improve that which is already so it is therefore recommended that a proper connection be made between die bay and the lake ao as tu reduce them both to tho amo level and that the outlet should bo so constructed that whilst it would permit the water in the bay to csrspe it would keep back that of the lake when by storm or other causes it should be temporarily raised above its present level it is also recommended ihat the mouih of life great dun should be closed bv damming whilst that of the lidle pon ahould be topped by gales to pcirnil the use of the

rendering tho air of the city impure eiij iiiiwinnvsonic the deposit brought bown by the don is of two hinds it first consists of matoriula of which the surrounding soil is com posed and which are of different degree of density according to their state of pulverization from a coarse grit to an impalpa ble powder so line thai tho scntc of biuch can scarcely distin guish it and also of undikoinposed quimal and vegetable mat let whose specific gravity i neatly the same with the water the heavier material arc rolled on by the current rill they meet with obstructions fi oni some power running in an oppo site tlirerunhj and then by a wth known law hfnalure they obey the influence of neither but fall to the bottom at the point of contact and hy this mode and dependent upon this princi ple are all the bars formed which are found at the mouths of rivers and if these heavier material nicci wlih no sdclr oppo sing influence they go on and form the sandy beaches by which our lakes are surrounded tho lighter particles of vege table ad animal matter ace carried about by the slightest im pulse till they find a pav6 of nut where they gradually de compose and communicate to the orrouudtng atmosphere in a state of gas their deleterim influence if these injurious consequences follow from the supply af forded by the marsh and the pon ihoy are greatly increased by ihe more noxious mallei supplied from the wash of the city so soon as ihe 1osl breaks up or alior d heavy rain a vast quantity of water loaded with those impurities nrshes down the streets and the numerous drain that ore made to empty thnwvc4 into the b tireat quantities of soil are also deijijicd from the cliff and washed into ihe hay the quantity of earthy matter so dis lodged is enormous but that of animal and vegetable matter must be sogrcat a sensibly to affect the health of ihe city more especially as it is observable that by far the greater pari of thofc impurities aie deposited near tho shore on the city side as is demonstrated hy the great accumulation of mud which on ex amination will be found t- be of the inurl offensive kind the obvious remedy fr these evils i to form a common icwer from one end of the city to the olhr into which all drains shall empty themselves and lo rlisi barge itself into the don or marsh and also lo slope away the cliffs of the lake to an angle of about 30 degrees when they will be covered with hrrbge and no longer pa subject to the wash they are now ex posed to- tho earth wmch wqutd be removed in making this slope as well as that which would he obi line by forming thesewcm may be officiary attd economically cmploved infil ling up tho various water lots along the shores which it is strongly recommended should ho done to such a distance as will give a continuous wharf with 5 or 6 feel of water which will get rid of the unhealthy deposit now lying at the bnttnm of the water and instead of that and the sqqftwm water which is frequently so oflcnsive the city will have ihe benefit of clear water coosianlly changing by the current oflhe bay and a valuable property will be created inasmuch aa imtead of a lot of useless muidy water each proprietor will possess a va- loable piece of land of 300 or 400 feet in jjeplh with a double and the a wu pwi qtjcimv would be indispensable extending 300 yards into at least 16 feet water and if thoso were judiciously placed they would not tail to afford a safe entrance and a com- m odious liaibor however such a cut might be prejudicial to the hay without tbe protection of gate it is agreed uu all hands that with gates no larger can be apprehended as a safeguard therefore gates should be erected and in order to effect an cart cornuuntca- 1 1 r i with the western end of the peuintfula a floating bridge would piobably be found the bctft adapted fur that purpose this projected cut would be producuve of the following im portant advantages to the city 1st by admitting the clear waters of the lake those of the bay would be purified 2d it tvould add to tho liefdtbfulnesi of the rjty 3d it would enable schooners which eti only naif a loading at the bead of he lake to come to this city to complete iheir loading without the risk of beingduteined by a westerly wind winch is now hit il- and it would enable schooners to leave thtf port at any time wi it would enable boat and acows logo into thd

quantity of fish in the bay- 7th and there is good reason for believing that it might pro bably preserve an open channel through the buy alt the win ter or at all events would tend to open it much earlier in the spring it only now remains to consider the comparative advantages and disadvantages ftf a cur through the beach at the extremity of asuridgoe day with those of a cut through ihe narrows of the peninsula the distsnee across the beaih at bolt places is very neaily the iame nor will there bo any material diffe rence in tbe quantity of digging through the beach in either oaf in order to gel permanently inlo 16 feel of water il will also be necessary in both cases to carry out the piers to tho distance of 300 yards the expense therefore so far will bo nearly equal thelacilmes for the entrance of vessels from the lake loo arr- upon thu whole nearly balanced probably if the ad vantages preponderated at all it is in favor of aibrijges bay bui within the buy the advantage is decidedly in fsror of tho cut at the peninsula to make an outlet al aabridcs bay would involve ihe ad ditional expense of a canal wide and deep enough tor schoo- nora and if for steamboats the sides musi be protected in a way which would cost a considerable sum ofmoney the dis tance being full 3 miles but what is probably a still greater objection to this plan arisesoutof tho following view ofthe case tbe river don with all its impurities as well as thceiuda- dations from theniarh c would all find their wsy into the canal and it would therefore be improper even to permit the waterof tie cans to come into theharbor which if would be in some degree perhaps difficult lo prevent whilst none ofthe pure lake water wuuld be admitted by this opening into the bay as it would do if the cut were made across the peninsula and would consequently defeat one important advantage to tho eity there can bb no doobt that a canal cut through the marsh which wtiold admit boats or barges drawing 3 or 4 feet of wa ter would be advantageous as well lo the neighboring proper ties aa to the marsh itself as it would help to drain it and such a canal would be made tor a email sum ofmoney as the crust would require little more than to be cut through and boated in lo the deep part of asbridgca bay indeed the present cut called boltons drain if widened would nearly answer this oorpofte and if pair of galea were placed at tho mouth oflhe tkoeoon with 1 swing or touting bridge all lh purposes would be accomplished the foregoing suggestions embrace a variety of improve- uients which if effected can hardly fill of proving of vast ad vantage 10 the city it is presumed that taking the value ofthe marsh into ac count the stockholders would receive from the new entrance an ample remuneration that the propped whdrves would amply rcpy the outlay of the money dmttwhy complete them whilst the common sewers independent of till advantages derived by ho inhabi ting in iheheamhfuliic ofthe city would be

tho false intelligence of the choleras having broken oul in this town is best known to themselves but that they were artuat ed by a sane or worthy motive we veiy much doubt if as we have presumed they
