In order togtve the fultest description of the entire works it will be necessary to examine the various stages, im the following order:—The rources of saply— tho poude: the canal comecting the various poncs; closed conduit from ths eapal to engine house; the distributing reservoir; the distributing maine to city. ‘The ponds from which the present supply of water is to be obtained are known as follows by the imhabiwnw of Long Isiand:— Baiseley’s, covering. Nostrand’s, Simoneen’s, P, Coraell’s, Pine’s, L, Cornell’s, . + 22 ‘Thus fariebing supply reservoirs ef 122 acres. The entire country in the neighborhood of these ponds is co- vyered with running etreams of pure water and babbling aprings, as thoogh tt had once been aa immense lakv. Several of these streams are of considerable falling ito and becoming the principai feeders of the Dents.

The water is of delicious purity; iu that respect surpassing even our boasted Croton, Hitherto, the ponds have merely been used for mill purposes, and the bottoms have become covered with alluvial and vegetable depvsits, which it is pecessary to get rid of, We will give a description of the present state of Baiseley’s pond, which will serve aga ‘ample to the rest, as also in respect to the operations be- carried on in preparing it for public use. °s pond, situated at a shert distance from the town of Jamaica. covers an expanse of 37 acress, and the water vw jes in depth from two to six fost, according to the collection of what loose like black mud at bottom. The water is now all drawn off, and were it not fur the mud the spectator wonld behold a long, narrow basin of clear white rand, nowhere deeper than eight feet. The bottoms of all the ponds for @ distance of sixty miles are similar, forming @ collction of admirable natural fliterers, and jus ttifyir gfbe observaticn of a rententiour Long Tslauder, that “it was very thoughtful of nature to put such good drink- ing bowls near to the city of Brooklyn’ The numerous inge and streams rupning into the pord have carried along a quantity of vegetable and other matter, whieh lies on the botiom in thicknesses of eighteen inches to seven feet. We examined this deporit and found it to be peat, which, when cried, would serve admirably as fuel. It can be cut out in square blocks, 80 g “eat 1s ils consistency, except on the upper surface, w it ig more like biack tlusb. This pend will be entirely cleaned out by next October, and earlier than that even, hed {t not been for the lato sewere rains, which impeded operations. Athough the supply of water will be much greater for Brooklyn than the department gives to New York, the cost will only be about oue-third, and the reason of this ie that in the former case advantage is taken of natural facilities, aad the immense sb uctures of masonry ¢ with. Thus the natural form of Baisley’s and other ponds will bo retained, as also their presen: levels, whilst the shore embankments will be generally adajted to the present flow line, These embank- ments will be dotermined in @ line two and a half foet above the water way, eight feet wide at .op, with slopes of one and a half to one. ye embankmenta of dains will be raised four feet above water level, fifteen feet wide at top, with slopes of two to ove, They will be compactly built, in layers, with a ceniral puddle wall, four fest thick, reipg one foot above the water line.

The depth of water way is twenty feet, the inside embankment rising four feet above the water and sloping ove and a balf in one. The entire surface of the two sections will be covered with water-tight paddling two feet in thickness, which will extend und th sloping embankment and rise Porivonully beyond it to a height of one foot above the nighest water line. The pud- a)ing tous formes & perfect basin of itself, the horizontal edges or walls being twenty one feet high and six feot in thickness These walls are enclosed in the upper or outer embapkment. The sides of the inner slopes are also pud- dled two feet thick, so that we have, as it were, two basins of pudding, one inside the other, obviating any possibility of leaking. The inner slopes are covered with stone work twelve inches in thickness, la'd on the pudding with hy drauke cement. On the Cypress Hill plank road a sab- stantial wall of rubble masonry, faced with dressed na sonry, is to be laid along the front of the grounds, to sus- tain the embank ments; it will have a cutstone coping, sur- mounted by a substantial wrought or cast trou railing, eight feet — Around the other portions of the greunds & substantial ornamental iron fence, eight feet high, will ‘de built on stone fonndations, A gate and keeper's house will shortly be commenced, as soon as the present works are in & #omewhat more forward state.

The outlet fs at the north end of the embankment, and similar in construction to the inlet. The aitiuent are to re- ceive three distribution pipes, each 36 laches in diameter, Dut only one of these will be required at first.

I was landed without proper means of defence, having neither artillery nor axes, and short of provisions. Many obstacles were overcome when we reached and cleared out the trenches of old Fort Nelson, where I remained nearly sixty hours without food or shelter for my men, awaiting the retora of Lockridge, who agree’ to return with reinforcements in iwelve hoora, or T iwight be assured be vas cut off In the meantime I cut loove from her moorings the other steamer J. N. Scott, which was secured under the cover of the guns of the enemy, pat ou board my sick and wounded, under charge of Major Wm Mooa, aad dropped the Scott some three miles down the river. In this extremity I was attacked by 500 Costa Ricans, whote object was to flank my litte party, cut oif our re- treat and re-take the steamer Scot. We mae a dever- mined resistance, and drove the enemy back into the tort; wen finding it impossible to take the fort without the aid of ariillery, and considering the steamer of great importe ance to our cause, for our means of transportation were limited, I ordered’ a retreat and went seme six miles down the river, where I met Lockridge. Had Col. Lockridge kept bis word with me, or had he complied with my requisition for artillery, instead of re- maining at Greytown, making protests and speeches to the English commander our attempt on Ca-tillo ¥ ould have been successful. The total (gnorance of Col. Lockridge ia overy- thing relative 10 military matters, and bis contemptible feaoury, in connection with a base heart, have prompted im to'a conree eo low, mean and cowardly in carrying cur bis threats to disgrace me, 1 regard it with ag little consideration as the yelpings of a barking cur. What service I, with my command, rendered to the cause was given withont being mustered into the army of Walker, or in any way identified with bis operations, ex- cept for the general interest of Nicaragua. After becom- {ng satisfied that I bad been deceived in relation to Walk- er’s position in the country, I at ovce determined to leave and return to the United ; but at the urgent rejuest of my friends, who wished me to communi Walker, I left the river and proceeded. via Panama, to Rivas, where I declined service in Walker’s staff, for which he unlawfully detained metwo months, Whoa I waw the fate of his little army would be that of certain an- nibilation, I interposed for their safety, for which kindly office my character has been assailed hy such contemptible minions as Walker only would engage tw fabricate repora without truth or justice. Sufficient evidence will soon be brought ont in relation to that tyrant, Wm. Walker, and such minions as Lockridge, as will enable those interested tn this matter to decide upon the merits of the case. Ibave recently met with an extract, published in a newspaper, from a letter signed E. J. C. Kewen, dated at Washington, March 25, 1857, addressed to « gentleman in Tenpersee, in which he asxailed my character for the purpore of arousing sympathy, and calling upon the cit!- zene of Charleston, Savannah and adjacent country to ald bit ith money, men, &c., kc.
