H. Crane, in which he calls attention to the act Congress ip reference to the use of water m2- ters. The act is imperative in its terms, and states that meters shall be placed where iarge quantities of water are used. and specities « ebarge of three cents per one hundred gallons ov the water consumed. The Registcar men- thens the fact that a bill to carry out the prov sions of the act of Congress passed the Board of Common Connei! in October, but seems never to have reached the Board of Aldermen, and he says.—So great is THE WASTE OF WATER that in one hundred establishments where large quantities of water are used, if meters were in use, the receipts for water rents would be in- «reased one-third. and the waste of water les- sened toe the same extent, which would be sufficient to supply the families resting on the highlands. It is a erying injustice that one- fifth of our poyaiatien are deprived of the use of water they have paid for, while those who pay no more have all they want and recklessly waste that which others are entitled to.

The city of top, with a population of nearly three times that of Washington and Georgetown, And con- taining more than one hundred times more Manufactures within its limits, consumes but 15,000,000 gallons daily. It is estimated by the water department of Boston that A SAVING OF ONE-THIRD in the amount of water consumed, and a cor- responding increase of the receipts, results in consequence of the use of meters. It is esti- mated by the Water Registrar that the receipts from water tn that city the present year will be upwards of £~0,000. In the year 1863 the receipts from that source were €510,353.73. The receipts trom water rents in this city from -July 1, 1469, to Suly 1, 1570, were $28,975.18, or about @ne-twentieth of the receipts of Boston, while the consumption was only about one-third less. ‘The next two years, or until the 36-inch main authorized at the last session of Congress is jaid, will be the time when the ure of meters ‘will be the most needed. After that time there will be an abundant supply. ‘The Kegistra: also callx attention to the im- portance of an addsitional clerk for hisoftice, ti take off the list of wnpaid taxes tor the a advertisement of the City Uollector, and to the rent books in @ proper condition.
