Death of A Well-known Citizen and
MrsiciAN. Thomas Loud, Esu., died at his lata
residence, on Saturday last. Mr. Loud came to
this country from England when a youug man,
mtwI heiran the manulaciure of pianos in thii
n'.v in 1H20. He became well known for the
mineru.rito of his instrument, and his interest
in the ailuirs of the Musical Fund Society, of
wuieh he was a member, and in whose sci-'mvc
concerts and musical interests generally he took
a very prominent part lor some years,
Recruiting Officer Shot. Between 9
and 10 o'clock last evniner. a reeruitmir ser
ceant was shot in the left hiD bv an unknown
persoc, while endeavoring to arrest a deserter
in Dock etrect, below Second. The wouik!,
wtiih is not considered a danejerous one, was

I HE DRAINAGE SyHTKM OF PHILADELPHIA.-
In a recent report, made by the Cuicf
Kneitieer, he makes mention t the great im
provements in the scwersge system of thiscny.
lie says further: "As to the requirements ol, tho
city m the extension of sewers, he would reter
to the report presented to Councils through tho
Committee on Surveys and Herniations, to
which is attached a hill appropriating $,ir2,0()0
lor constructing srterinl sowers, and niBkiii!
certain changes where depression of grade
cause too rapid an accumulation of surface-How
to be admitted at one point into the sewers.
There arc many other lines necessary: enough,
in lact, to cover an expenditure oi $1,000,000."
In retenine to the present water-closet system
he uses the following language: "I do not wish
to be understood as Renin? forth the present
system as perrect, lor it Inn us objectionable
features, in fact that the delivery Hows thromrh
the sewers into river?, and larsre as is the
capacity of our river Delnwar" iu comparison
With the Thame?, and small as Is our population
compared with that of London, yet we have a
large area of territory which may be as extn
slvely ami densely populated as either London
or Paris; nnd notwithstanding manv years may
elapse before our population will reach a
number which wiJl bear the same comparison
to our water capacity as London does to that
c.f the Thames, yet it is not too soon to give a
thought a to what shall bo done with the
sewage. More fears may be justly felt as re
gards the Schuylkill thau the Delaware, for
already have we at least one-fourth of our popu
lation delivering their reiuse into it, and tho
progress of improvements in West Philadelphia
has been, and will continue to be, very ranid.
"The Delaware, between the island and tho
city, has a delivery of about 12,000,000 cubic
feet per minute, with about 600,000 people
draining in it; in the Schuylkill 2,000,000
cubic feet per rniunte, with about 200,000 of
population.
"The Thames, at London, Las a flow of
about 4, 000,000. cubic feet per minute, with a
population of about 2.000,1100 in the city, and
000,000 additioual above the city, and even
then 1 find in a Parliamentary report of 18G5
these words: "In the investigationfrelating to
London sewage, and its effects on the Thames,
and the injury to health inflicted thereby, it is
conclusively shown that the createst part of
the nuisance lies in the sedimentary matter
which lines the banks, and is in an active state
of putreffl'-tion.' I state this to show that we
need not have any immediate fear of injury
to our rivers should wc continue the water
closet system,".
Stealing Raiment. Mary Dillon was up
betore Alderman Beltler at the Central Station
yesterday. She was chartred with stealing
wearing appaiel of considerable value from a
woman named Catharine Mcllit, in Mahlon
street, between Filth and Sixth and Race aad
Vine. Policeman Waterhouse recovered mo-.t
ot the property. It looked rather queer to see
the occupant of so obscure a residence pos
sessed of toggery that a merchant prince might
have been proud to purchase for his household.
Such, however, was the fact. The silk dresses
were elaborately trimmed with Iloniton, the
furs wereot true sable, nnd the under garments

Appeal by the ho uthwaek Soup
Society. This Society has made an earnest
appeal tor help. The finances of the Society are
in a very meagre condition, and the demands
upon its resources are largely on the increase.
The destitute people In the lower part of the
city are suffering, and starvation and death
from cold and privation stare many In the face.
Soup and bread are distributed daily at the soup
house, in Sutherland street, below Queen, where
contributions are qli-o received.
