of families now supplied with water from the works is 6,960-being an increase over last year of 156 fam- ilies, and an increase within the past five years of 1,668 families. The whole number of families in the city not supplied with water from the works is 2,033, most of whom reside in districts not accessi- bio to the distribution pipes at present laid. Some of them obtain their supply directly from the river, but most of them obtain it from wells, generally but scantily supplied by surface drainage. There is not within the limits of the city what can really be termee a spring., foy the surface of the earth is un- derlaid by stiff impermeable olay, extending down to a rock base. Of the water found in these wells, Prof. Douglass, who analized it, says : " The large quantity of sodium (common salt), chloride of po- tassium, and magnesium found in it clearly indicates its surface origin. The two last salts are cathartic in their properties, and the habitual use of water holding them in solution, in any considerable quan- tities, must prove injurious to health. " A galion of the well water he found to contain 116 grains of solid matter, while the water from the works he found to contain but a fraction more than five grains, " composed mostly of sillica, alumina, and iron, ele- ments that could produce little or no injury ; while the much the most injarious compounds, are entire- ly absent," Nearly all who procure water from these wells, as also those who are now compelled to procure it directly from the margin of the river, subject as it is to the shore washings and drainage of & populous city, would gladly procure it from the works now, and will do so whenever distribu- ting pipes are extended accessible to their premises.
Now that the construction of the works is near- ly completed, -- I mean as to the power to supply and capacity, of storage of water,-which are constuc- ted on a scale sufficient for at least three times the present population of the city, I deem it proper to call your attention to the necessities for the exten- sion of distributing pipes, as the only means upon which you have to rely to make the works self- sustaining, as fast as you may be satisfied it will be remunerative and your means will permit.
The extension of water pipes has not, for the past few years, been commensurate with the growth of the city. This could not be done for the want of power to supply and capacity of storage of water. While there are 1,668 more families supplied with water from the works than there were tive years ago, there are 977 more families in the city not sup- plied from the works than they were at that time. There were about 900 families added In 1857 by the extension of the geographical limits of the city, and the number has increased within these limits since that time about 500. The growth of the city by territorial extension merely, is not, however, that " gowth " which results from the combination of capital and industry by which wealth and produo- tion is actually increased and geographical limits" enlarged by necessary distension, but, on the con- trary, imposes municipal burthens for its mainten- ance, of which the water works are necessarily obliged to contribute its proportion of unremuner- ative ex enses, in laying long lines of pipes for few water-takers, instead of short lines for many con- sumers.
A very large number of familles reside in districts too sparsely settled and too remote from the water pipes to justify the expectation of supplying them from the workt at present, but there are now sever- al localities within the city limits, some of them central and in close proximity to pipes now laid, where the population is nearly as dense as it pro- bably ever will be, whore the inhabitants are entire- ly destitute of wholesome water, where it would be remunerative to the works and sanitary in its effects to extend the pipes. At first, it may be that all would not take water, but a sufficient number would to pay a fair percentage on the cost, and eventually all would be compelled to, as past ex. perience in similar localities fully demonstrates, when the amount received from rates would be largely renumnerative on the investment. In some
of these looslities the inhabitants procure a partial supply of water from the works now, by tresspass- ing on the nearest premises supplied, while but lit- tle if any revenue is derived therefrom. By extend- ing pipes into these districts they would be com- pelled to connect service-pipes with their respect- Ive premises and pay the rates assessed, for they would no longer have any apology for doing other. wise.
The annual current expenses were greatly ang. mented while the work of construction was going on, but now that the works are about completed and the current expenses hereafter will be confined. to supplying water and maintaining the works, they shold be proportionately. lessened.
A large amount of the cost of construction and annual current expnses are properly chargable to other branches of the municipal government-Fire Deperiment and poor Funds-the burden of which should not be borne by the water takers, but by the city at large, for a large amonut of property to which fire protection is afforded does not contribute to the revenue of the works, and it will be conceded that the poor should be thus maintained. It is true that about fifty thousand dollars' valuation of the old works will remain, the interest upon which is paid by the city, but this is not by any means equal to the proportionate cost of the works and annnal cost of supplying water, which is now paid exclu- sively by water-takers. In my assessment report for 1857, I stated that the interest on the cost of what would remain of the old works would defray the expense of supplying the water to the Fire De- partment, but that had no reference to the cost of the works.
Besides the proportionate cost of the power to furnish a supply of water, there has been paid for fire hydrants and iron pipes to connect them and the reservoirs about forty thousand dollars, and, be- sides the proportionate cost of supplying water, one man is kept consantly empleyed examining and keeping the hydrants in working order. Whenever a hydrant or gate is broken, it is repaired or replac- ed at the expense of the works, thus increasing the current expenses about six hundred dollars annu- ally. The annuel amount which is now paid by water-takers, and which should properly be paid by the city, besides the proportionate amount for the cost of the power to supply, and supply of wa- ter, is as follows :
For annual interest on $40,000. -$2,800 For annual expense of keeping hydrants, &o., in order 090
For annual expense of supplying the poor with water 1,000
Total- $4,400
To which should be added the proportionate amount of the interest on the cost of the power to supply, and for the supply of water furnished for tire purposes.
The whole number of families in the city is 8,978, being an increase over last year of 206 families .- Since the works were placed under the manage- ment of the Board, eight years ago, besides relaying 19 miles of distribution pipes, 29% miles of water pipes have been added The t. tal pipage in the city :January 1 last was 61 miles and 565 feet. 3,265 more families are supplied with water from the works, and the annual amount of the assessed rates bas increased $31,585 ·
The number of unoccupied buildings in the city at the time the canvass was made was as follows : 66 dwellings, 34 stores, and 3 taverne, many of which were vacated for the purpose of being repaired .- The number of buildings constructing at the same time were as follows : 75 brick and 101 wooden dwellings-176 dwelllhgs, 59 brick stores, 8 brick and 1 stone churches-4 churches, 2 brick publio school houses, 2 brick mechanic shops, 2 brick ad- ditions to taverns, 1 brick . house of correotion, 1 public market, and 1 brick tannery ; the aggregate cost of which is $500,000.
