7'lic Aqueduct.
The city of Pittsburgh is jest now in rather a mis
cellaneous position in relation to the aqueduct over
the Allegheny river at this point. It does not pay,
and it is a matter of some importance to the tax
payers of the city, who will have to make up the
deficit in the receipts over the expendituiles, to have
the connection of the city with the Aqueduct closed
up and terminated.
The Aqueduct Was built by the city, by authority
of an act of the Legislature, and when, from the toils
received for crossing it, the city should be reimbursed
for the cost of construction, the structure was to re f
vent to the State. Ala sale of the Main Line cart
rind the Aqueduct with it, and the reversionary in'-
terest which the State had in it is now the property
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, if, indeed,
the tale of the public works by the State did not vcot
the actual ownership in this company.
By the Look•keeping, of the cations treasurers of
the city who from year to year had charge of the
fund received from tolls, a balance was made to ap
pear in fsvcr of the city of some $32,000. After the
sale of tb","j Main Line en agent of the city went on
to Harrisburg to make an effort to have the amount
paid to the city by aprropriation, as this Was believed
to be 'richt, inasmuch as the State had sold the Aque
duct to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. An
uct was rated directing the Canal Commissioners to
liquidate :he balance duo the city, with a view that
an appropriation might ho made for itß payment.
The Canal Commissioners and the agent of the city
went to work, aril the result of their labors vras' ea
follows:
On the 21st of April last, George Scott, Esq.,
President pro tees..of the Bord of Canal Commis
sioners, retorted to the Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives, in obedience to the act requiring the
Bond forthwith to examine the account of the city
of Pittsburgh for rebuilding or repairing tho Agee'.
duct, and report the result, that " an agent of the
city of Pittsburgh had been before them twice, but
on neither occasion tvlre the accounts in such a shape
as to enable the Board to arrive at any conclusion
as to the amount really expended by the corporation
of Pittoburgh in rebuiljing and repairing the Aque
duct referred to.
At the het interview with the agent having charge
of the accounts, the Board discovered that the inter
est had not Leen properly calculated, and also that
the accounts improperly incladed an expenditure of
from seven tbouzand to eight thousand dollars, made
by the city of Pittsburgh, in the construction of a
bridge over- the canal on Penn street. These errors
were adm.itied by the agent, who thereupon with
drew the amount, for the purpose of 'correction and
re-statemout," and it was not again brought to their
notice during the session of the Legislature.
Thus Can matter still stsnds. The errors in the
accou:.t will largely , ranee the claim of the city.
Not only had the Penn street bridge been erroneously
charged to the Aqueduct Fend, but for a large por
tion of the time the interest had been coilpounded,
End other charges had Lean made, such, for instance,
as the salary paid the City Treasurer for taking care
of the money which was received, all of which made
it apparent to the " agent of the city " that -the
amount coming to the city, upon a fair settlement of
accounts with the 'State, would not reach an eaten::
ishinz amount.
And now it is obvious, from the statement of the
Cdutrollcr to the Councils, that the maintainance of
this decaying structure hoe actually became a bill of
expenco to the *city. For the present year its re
ceipts have been $760,60 and its current expenses
expenses sS7o,6o—a clear loss of $llO. The best
policy which the city can pursue, manifestly, is to
surrender the Aqueduct forthwith to the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company, if they will take it, and
trust luck and the next Legislature for the re-pay
ment of any balance which, upon final settlement of
the account, may be found to be due tho city.
The objects to be gained by the city iiPsustaining
it no lone7sr exist ; it is fast decaying, and will . -
re
quire Lame amounts for repairs, and it is better for
tie tax payers that these repairs should be paid by
the railroad company, to whom only it is an advan
tage, than by the city. it will be found when the
Aqueduct account comes to be adjusted that the city
has in fart re;:eived nearly ell to which eh° is enti
tled under the act. of the Legislature which empow
ered her to build the Aqueduct, and lt is better for
her to lose this amount than to incur additional
expenditures solely for the benefit of the present
owners of the public works, with no prospect what,.
ever of ever getting a'dollar of it back.
Report of the Gas Company;
We have before us the annual report fdthe Trus
tcos of the Pittsburgh Gas Compan2; for the year
ending Juno ir.:0:11, 1853. It cont.'etias some interest
ing statisti,::, whi:h we give tozur readers in a con
densed form:
Enna tlie re-port of thegtigineer, James Thomp
eon, Esq., it appearsih yr there have boenlaid daring
the present year,icfn thousand three hundred and
fifty-one feee am a i n pip er , of whielt seventeen
"'hundred andieenq-cour feet were ussd in replacing
the 551 n0 ,Wegth of smaller pipes that have been
lifted P-leit will be used in such extensions, as, by
th° l2. 5 _ e, they aro adapted for.
Tao cost of these enteneione, amounting to six
lb usand six hundred and seventy-four dollars and
forty- seven cents, has bean paid out of the " Exten
sion " fund, leaving, after paying a dividend of ten
per cent. during the year, a balance of that account
to be applied to the same pprpose, under the joint
ntion of Councils and the Trustees, of twentyetthree
thousand two hundred and ninety-five dollars and
eighteen cents, less the sum of two thousand nine
hundred - and twenty dollars and seventy-five cents,
being the amount advanced for public lamps.
The total extent of main pipes laid is one hundred
and thirty-five thousand five hundred and seventy
seven feet, lass four thousand nine hundred and
twenty eight feet replaced at various times by larger
pipe, leaving the present distance of main pipes, one
hundred andthirty thousand six hundred and forty
nine feet, or twenty-four miles and three hundred
and seventy-o-p fest.
The cool carbonized during the.year, has been one
hundred end eighty-eight thousand three hundred
and thirty-nine bushels, and the gas supplied to the
city and private consumers amounts in all to fifty
four millions seven hundred and nineteen thousand
six hundred and sixty-one cubic feet.
- During the year one hundred and fifty: new service
pipes have been laid, for the use of private indi
viduals, making the number now in use 2,424. But
one public lamp has been erected during the
making the number now in use 513. The gas con
sumed in there public lamps, together with that sup
plied to tee Mayor's Office, watilh house water
works end mark - et houses, amounts to 12,1 5 7,161
cubic feet, at an expense to the city of $12,400,27.
• The cost of manuf-entering the 54,720,000 feet of
gas produced during the year was $41,937,33. The
number of men employed at the works is at present
thirty-six, and the average number employed during
the year, forty. •
The Company have nearly completed the excava
tion for the now tank; a portion of the iron for the
gas holder has been received, and the work on it is
progressing. It is expected that the new reservoir
will be ready far U3O by the first of January next.
During the year the demand for coke has very
• Materially decreased, and it was found necessary to
erect additional sheds for storing it. Tho price has
also been reduced to three cents per bushel, delivered
at the worts, for the purpose of creating an increas
ed demand.
The Beard have made a reduction in the price of
gas to consumers, and it is new furnished at the rate
of $1,60 per thousand cubic foot. The City Coun
cils, at their meeting on Monday night, gave their
assent to this reduction. The customary discount of
ten cents per thousand cubic feat is allowed to those
who pay within sve days, which brings the price
down to sl,se. The citizens of Pittsburgh are now
supplied with gee, not onlf at a lower rate than else
where in the United States, but chedper than it is
sold in the world.

crusade against the dogs, however, but measures to
oblige the owners of the canine nuisances to keep
them at home or muzzle them. Quito a number of
dog owners were before Mayor Stuokrath yesterday,
who fined theca ten dollars each for allowing their
dogs to run at large without muzzles or collars, and
also exacted promises for the abatement of the nui ,
sanca hereafter. We think this method of adminis•

solitary.

We hope the committee may sawed in finding a pur

ANN ARBOR, November 6, 1856.
0..1. ' , A nod—Ditsr Sir :—I have heard much said of
the wonderful effects of your Hair Restorative, but having
teen so often cheated by quackery and quack nostrums,
hair dyes, &c., I woo disposed to place your Restorative In
the same category with the thousand and one loudly trum
peted quack remedies, until I met you in Lawrence county
some month, since, when you gave me such assurance as
induced the trial of your Restorative in my family—first by
my good wife, whose hair had become very thin and en
tirely white, and before exhausting one of your large bot
tles, her hair was restored nearly to its original beautiful
brown color, and had. thickened and become beautiful and
glossy upon, and entirely over the head; she continues to
use it, not simply because of its beautifying effects upon
the hair, but because of its healthful influence upon the
head and mind. Others of my family and friends are using
your P.estorative, with the happiest effects herefore, my
skepticism and doubts in reference to its character and
value are entirely removed; I can atd do and meat cor
dially and confidentially recommend its use by all who
would have their hair restored from whist, or gray (by rea
son of sickness or age,) to original color and beauty, and by
all young persons woo would have their hair beautiful and
glossy. Vey truly and gratefully yours,
SOLOMON MANN.
FAB= WOOD: It was a long time after I saw you at
Blissfield before I got the bottle of Restorative for which
you gave me an order upon your agent in Detroit, and when
I got it we concluded to try it on Mrs. Mann's hair, as the
surest test.of its power. It has done all that you assured
me it would do; and others of my family and friends,
having witnessed its effects, are now using and recommend.
ing its use to others as entitledto the highest consideration
you claim for it.
Again, very respectfully and truly, yours,

I have used Prof. O.J. Wood's Hair Restorative, and have
admired its wonderful effects. My hair was becoming,i as I
thought, prematurely gray, but by the use of his Restonr
tiTe it has resumed its original color, and, I have no doubt,
permanently so. 13._BRESSE, ex-Senator,ll. EL
