Sir,—A correspondent in one of our local papers,

the, iwpore state of ihe water now drawn

in use in Chatlottetown was analyzed, lt would be found
charged with the most unwholesome and repulsive sub-

The fact of persons coming from the country having’
been taken ill on their return home, and judging frow
the symptoms of which they complained, there can be
little doubt that the change from pure water to the al-
most poisonous fluids pumped from seme of our city
wells, was the cAuse of the illness. How mach sickness
might be traced to the same cause it is impossible to
say. Apart from the all-important point of having
pure water for domestic uses, there is another and an
almost equally important one, eresting the quantity

Tur steamer Heather Belle, which was due at tois

it becomes our duty to protest against the employ-
