NEWMARKET WATER-SUPPLY.

(To the Editor.) Sm.-ln tho month of May lastv™,. i™ . , to address tho inhabitant L^-?1: through the valuable meOhim of your i n ,S on the BUOjeot ot a water supply otViS hoped on that occasion that tho cnhghtonc d t_ discriminating residents of that SS»S have taken the matter in hand! lS *£& it a subject for discussion at a general roeSinJ In this however, I was disappKS. To" £ I do not wish such an important matter t-K defeated, or at all events, set aside, I ondwon to re-open thequestion, and in doingsofi- I may at least on this occasion moot with son? measure of success. In my previorm «If municatlons,l proceeded to point oiubS considering a"a water supply "-what to I. tho district—l Bay cleansing, aavisedlvTu f feel certain that whoever fate may have des tined to traversa the district, in thei vicinity _ he railway bridge loading to Paracll dS the summer months, must have had their ci. factory aenso awakened to an alarmhiz extent In entertaining unconsciously tho nn. wholesome and thoroughly substantia effluvium. in which this part of the district more particulary abounds. vie that the geological formation for tho oreaH'r' part at least, is of Buch a nature-bed of voloai lo rock-as to render It beyond tho present means at all events of the District Board, to oarrfout an efficient Bystem of drainage, tho outlet for which being two Binall creeks discharging into hobaon Bay during freshes, and complotoly stagnated hi the dry period, constituting a vorv hot bodof dlsease-aßtatoment which thesoarle't fever, at present so prevalent in the townßhip, will bear mo out in making uso ot in tan midst of such a highly populated and rapidly progressing district. Tnen let me suggest a remedy which I before advocated, viz., "a, permanent water supply "from tho reservoir in tho I Cyber Pass Road, and by which meanß then, pestilential depOta may bo properly flushed out when requiredjunder due supervision, w ill the residents Coll mo that this if resorted, to, assuming that the road rates are devoted, to the undertaking, and, If necessary, tho sanction of tho Government be obtained to that end, will doprivo them of tho necessary funds for street repairs. And consider that the sanitary condition of the district is tho first point to bo studied. Residents, do you calculate on the re duction that this will guarantee in your-present enormous fire insurance, tho cost of which is now adequate to satisfy both demands i h'.t me ask you now, how many homes were de pendent on tank supply during the recent ary period, and what was tho result of* that dependence? Might not a re-ourrence of this buying and carrying wator be obviated in the future to great advantage! Does not this weigh in favour of my argument! Is it not probable, too, that soma of tho wealthier residents would be willing to subscribe perhaps handsomely to such a scheme I Depend upon it, it would recoup the outlay at no very distant date. I say, tnen, lose no time—because tho rainy ecuson has arrived—in requesting t_e powers that bo to convene a publio meetiii g, The matter has an interest outside your own district, and should be ventilated to the fullest extent, or~perhaps in an evil hour the ravages of a conflagration or of tome epidemic will cause you to repent of neglecting to secure suoh desirable advantages as ho wholly within your presont reach, as a means of averting Buch calamitous consequences. Apologising for tres passing so much upon your space, my motto shall still be, . % Atrsi'iciUM Meliobis Mm

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A MASTER OF A VESSEL.

The following is tho report of tho Steam Navigation Board on the charges preferred against Captain Dowlin'g, master of tho barque Mirzapore. Tho "Melbourne! Argus " says :—

" The Steam Navigation Board of Vic< toria, having duly weighed the evidence taken before it in connection with the charges made against Martin Dowling, the master of the British vessel Mitzaporo oilicial number 49,935, of Liverpool), by Bernard Sullivan, A.8., and John Erikscn, A.8., both belonging to the said ship, viz, —1. That no side-lights were carried on board the Mirzapore from tho English coast to Cape Otway. 2. That no lookout was kept on board the Mirzapore during the time ot running the casting down, 3. Losing a man overboard, and not trying to save him—find with reference to the first two charges, that they have been substan tially proven. The board further find from the evidence abduced that two boats out of three which the Mizapore carried were un. fit for use, having been stove shortly after leaving'theEnglish Channel and thatoosteps were taken to repairthem although there was martinis on board to do so. Also, that,the boat davit, tackle falls, and guys were re. moved Irom the davit, and the davit wedged to stop them Irom swinging, there, by preventing the only remaining sound boat from being fit and ready for immediate use. The Board, however, do not, propoie to deal with charges 1 and 2, nor the matter of the boats, as these omissions can be dealt with u.der the 294 rd section of ;J, c' Metchant Shipping! Act of -UM and the 27th section of the Merchant Shipping Amendment Act of 1862 j and the board recommend proceedings being taken accordingly. With reference to the third charge of not trying to save the man ■who fell overboard, the Board, after taking into consideration the evidence with regard to the wind, weather, state of the se^aiia all other attending circumstances, as, con firmed by the log-book, fail to see why no effort was made by the master, Martin Dowling, to save the man's life, and why no attempt was made to put the ship in stays, or take such other steps as were necessary . for. facilitatating the getting of thej boat out, and away from the ship in search of the man. Had some such attempt been made, it. would have proved whether there was undue iibk to such a proceeding. The omission. to take such steps was, in the opinion of the Board, a wrongful (lefltult on the part of the . master.: Martin Dowling, and for such wroDgfo.', default the board call upon him to show cause why his certificate as master B_o_ld not be flea. with. In submitting this Ircport for confir mation by his Excellency the Governor the Governor, the Board desire also to lot ward an objection raised by Mr Emoraon, Captain Bowling's sphatMp \i?., that all three charges amounted w misdemeanours under the provisions oi we Merchant Shipping Acts.-Bobert'J^'"' ton, chairman, Steam Navigation.^™ offices, Melbourne, May 31,1881- iaeY port was confirmed by the Govern^ « Captain Dowling appeared before tne«. on Saturday and stated tbsWfflS. sible to save the man's life P.¥^Tl stances, and several witnesses jleposca the captain's conduct beingjnstiwoie. *. board suspended his certificate for six months. ■ .

We hope you will deem the subject of sufficient importance to afford tliis letter a space in your valuable taper.—Yours truly, SANDER & SONS. Bridge-street, Sandhurst, July, 1880. Inveroaroill. N.Z.. sth July 1880. Messrs. Sander & Sons. Sandhurst. Gentlemen,—Having Buffered from eczema (a Bkin disease which is very prevalent in this colony) for &bout nine years, J had consulted numerona medical men here and in Australia, and had taken arsenic, strychnine, iodide of potasßium, etc, internally, and had used pre parations of zinc and lead externally. In fact I had tried all the remedies known to the faculty, and what between travelling doctors' and druggists' bills, had spent a small fortune, almost if not wholly without results, except to injure my constitution. During a recent visit to Hokitika I waß recommended to try your Extract of Eucalyptus Globulus by a brother who had experience d great benefit from it in alleviating a very severe cold, and, no less to my surprise than satisfaction, I found the disease which had troubled me so long was conquered, and the skin resumed its normal condition. This was effected by the external uso of less than two one-ounce bottles. You are welcome to make any use you please of this letter, and I subsoribe myself.— Yours (Signed) JOHN H.
