CITY OF EVAÜXVI LLBi TTTESDA Y MORNING: ::::::M ARCH an Water wark for .ha City A member of the firm of Duggan, Cartwright tCo., Philadelphia, submitted a proposition to our City Council on Saturday niirht last, for auDDlvine the city with water. A m.nS the many improvements in progress i. i . -,i and in contemfH.t.on in connection with our ciy, there is no one more important to the r .... i- J ...k;.K ?aure mass oi our peop.e, uu uu u, ...v.. would confer so many direct and healthful .. . . j -j u ;,.A.,in n Kminti. au, i,re,.,uuu.u ful supply ef pure water, generally diffused throughout the corporation.

"' J ' ' J ally bad. and must of necessity have a deleterious effect upon the health of the inhabitants. But of the advantages of such an enter prize, euner airect or remote, we need not . a. . a .1 speak. They are too well known and have been practically demonstrated in nearly all the Eastern cities of the United States. The practicability of entertaining the propo sition at this time, is the point which directs itaelf to the mind of everv citizen, and more especially to the consideration of the 'city fathers,' who are the legal guardians and rerepresentatives of our corporate interests. The proposition, which has already been summarily submitted, contemplates the filtering of Cie water before it reaches the city, thus rendering it at all times free from the ioath-j list a j some impurities inseparable from the supply of water now in use. The company which has made these overtures to the Council, has been eminently successful in the construction of such works in

aeveral of the Eastern cities, upon terms and . communicate thought with the speed of light- ,. , . . ,. ,- i ninj; across continents, fructifying ihe soil in a manner highly satisfactory to all parties. ... T . , . 7 . , . , , . ,, I as it passes with the seeds ot knowledge and The tax upor the property of the city would j ilUeigence. jt ia not lhe mi?gion of Araer. be very small, and only a sufficient amount j icans to rear sepulchres to departed granwould be required, after the work is finished I deur, but to quicken the intellect of the

to indemnify the company against too heavy Josaea before the water rents should prove adequate to defray curn-nt expenses. We can imagine no greater blessing that can reaaonably befall our thriving city, than the realization of the objects contemplated in this proposition. We are pleased to learn that the Council look upon the matter with favor, and resolved to confer further with the company upon the subject. (XT The Gardiner trial came to a final, and rather tragical conclusion on Friday laat,

at Washington City, it will be recollected IT?" The body found in a barrel of liquor that Dr. Gardiner was once before tried on a at Madison, waa found to be a ' medical subcharge of defrauding fie government, by jject," shipped by a graduate from the Medical

laying claim to a quicksilver mine in Mexico, mad the trial resulted in the disagreement of the jury. At the recent trial the jury convicted him of the crime as charged, and he was sentenced by the Court to ten years imprisonment in the penitentiary. After the rendition of the verdict, and while a motion was pending befc re the Court on a bill of exceptions, the doctor committed suicide by taking poison, saying as he drank the fatal draught, that -he would soon be tried before a Coart that would not find himcruiltv This notorious individual has occupied a conspicuous position before the federal tribunals of this country for thc last two years, and now, that the courts and a jury of Iiicountry have found him guilty, his name will doubtless go down to posterity, with a no more enviable notoriety, than having been theaothorof tne of the most gigantic swindies ever perpetrated upon the American government. His tragic death will only add. w - ' . to the notoriety of his infamy, and give an additional proof of tha consciousness of his own guilt. We call attention to the advertisement of H. Semmons &.
