I dreamed thata marshy tract of ground.

Another gentlemen present said the

some rock seaweed. to which young 0 's-

of a building. The oysters. without any
nourishment beyond what they gained
from the seaweed and the air. lived three

the cost would be about $30. a day.
In an in formal way a rolest was made

Usually the price paid to the tongers

from 75 cents to 01.50 per bushel. Very
few persons have any idea to what ex-

A Letter on Our Sewers.

EDITOR OF THE Sentinel :— In your pa-
per of the 21st you say a blunder was
evidently made in building the sewer n11
Railroad I‘lace.
First. the main sewer on Washington
street is on the ridgoof the business por-
tion of the oily. and ever since it was
built. there has been an attempt to run
the sewers from tho lower portions of
the city into it.
The sewer- on South Main stixiet is ll 10
of a foot lower at the l‘ity lloiel than it
is at the lnsuraiiw building. The sewer
on Monroe slow in order to Hill iuioihs
sewer on Main street ‘is only ill lwt be-
low the aortas.“ and can no expert to
drain collars 5 feet below the same level
into it. Soil is with Railroad Place. This
sewer starts .\l feet below the street. sun

100 feet to tho Washington alivet sewer.
The Franklin street sewer Iii allll worse.
and all running contrary from where
they ought to go \\‘honovi~r i not al-
lowed to lay out the sowora to Hill down
hill through the natural channels where
they ought to gmwv shall have no trout»
le. with them. or in draining collars into
them. I. nor any other engineer cannot
run a sewer from a given point and
place it lower than tho discharge end
and make it work.
There are two natural oiillots for the
sewage system of our cily.liut there seems
to be a determination to drain everything
into the “'asliington street sewer. and it
cannot be done without pumping. With

. lie belower than the facts war- building the sewer referred to and all
a, rant. the commissioners will be com-
others south of Washington street. They
should be laid deeper and run in the op-
posite direction to a main sewer. that
sooner or later will have to be built for
all that portion of the city south of
Washington street.
Our sewers are fast becoming used up
by neglect. and in a few years will be.
come worthless and all have to be re-
built. Tliey have cost a great deal and
should be properly taken care of if they
are expected to be of any use. “’9 have
nothing that effects the health of the
place so much as the sewage. and noth-

EXTRACTS mu m ANNUAL REPORT.
The figures of the Consolidated road‘s
business for the past year have-been al.
ready given. The following statements
from the annual report will be read with
interest:
Several improvements have been made
during the past year in bulldings.bridges.
rolling stoc . etc. Several new engines
and cars have been added to the equip-
ment. quite sufficient. as your directors
believe. to make the condition of your
property lll these respects. as good now
as it wn-a xit the beginning of the present
ear. The extent of these additions can
lt‘fllimil by comparing the figures of
this )lltl‘ with those of last year‘s re-
icrt.
It will be remembered also that by the
earnings of last year the sum of $300,000
was set apart to be ap lied to permanent
improvements theres tor to mode.
This a mi was charged in last year‘s ex-
pensesas appropriated for the purchase
of lands. bridges and equipments. and
has all been expended during the present
year for these various urposes. About
3140.000 of it have sen expended in
buying additional lands at liar em river.
llleriden. and elsewhere. and the remain-
ing $160,000 have been ex ended in a
new stone arch bridge at estbrook.
new guard piers around the supporting
iers of the Shore Line bridge across the

tives and several drawing- room and
other passenger cars. Having thus been
ex nded. it disappears from the general
ha ance sheet as a liability of this year.
and having been clinrg to the appro-
priate accounts in the report for the
year ending September 30th. 1881. is. of
course. not included in the expenses of
the lineal year ending September 20th.

The various “01181) assets" held by this
company rind heretofore. reported under
that head. arein the report of this year,
as will be observed. treated as a sinking
fund. Some of these assets have been
held by the oomparw for several years.
though the principal item is the invest-
ment in the New York and Northampton
company. made last year and mentioned
in nurlsst annual report.
The matter of improving the curvil-

the road will justify a substmwial expon-

already taken steps. by way of surveys.

It is not expected that our road. with
its double truck. wil| for some time to
come. be worked up to the limit of its
full capacity. At the same time. your
