Ia accordance, with the promise made to oar readers two weeks since we present bcftw such facts as we have been able to artesian wells, with a view to' enligh tening this poLlio. mind that act more intcTEgenltynpoa tl ject As ah introduction it iiH' interesting toegme/oj oafttliAgfc'fttf least to leant what artesian wells real? th^pMws tbaft 'Wj^i' them possible end practicable. An artesian well then, is a hole bored in to the earth, (into which a pipe is in serted) to a sufficient depth; to, strike a stream of water, whijj^ 'fepm the nndnlatipns. of the. •Brill's surface flows from a .higher altitude than the one at wbiob the bore pipe is inserted. In obedience to tbe well known prin ciple that "water seeks iteown lettel,” tbe water from this stream will rise throngh the pipe to a level corres ponding with that from which it chare in some instances mounting to a great bight into the air. Haring learned what an artesian well really tt, we-will now disonss the important question: CAS WATEB BE OBTAINED U| THIS .WAT OS . THE ATLANTIC COAST? Facts go to show-that it most cer tainly can/ We know of no instance in which it has been impossible to ob tain a flow of water Of some kind.— Instances exist in which tbe water did not prove wholesome and palatable for domestic purposes, bnt never fails to flow—if yon dig long enough. The danger from this latter canse, howev er, is reduced to a minimum, as in al roost every instance the water is sat isfactory. . , , , THE DEPTH To which it is necessary to bore is the nert question that engages onr atten tion. Of coarse the only way to an swer this question is to refer to wells in this section SDd cite their respec tive depths. In Charleston, S.

Yours truly, Victim. Paints, Glass, Putty, and recommending «mT. «. 1,250 and 1,970 feet) from 823 to 475 feet in depth. ImCoosaw, S. C., is an artesian well 760 feet deop; atTooms- boro, Qa., one 400 feet i deep, i and in our sister city, Albany, there are two, one of which is 630 feet nfts^other a little less. TbomssviUsli uncom pleted well is now 700 feet and, tbe work is still being pushed. With this data before us then, it would seem to be safe to conclude that a well in Brunswick would probably not require a greater depth than five or six bun dred feet. However, this is more spec ulation, and a trial will be the only way to establish the matter definitely. As regards CAPACITY, . • | j Wo have no very definite data. ^1 bany’s wells, if wo mistake not, have a flow of abbot 30 gallons her min- uto each, which will make 1800 gal- lijps per hour, or 43,200 gallons overy twenty-four hours. One of the exper imental #jil| in Charleston, pbove al luded tb, oarf-flow of 260 gallons per minute, or 360,000 gallons in twenty- four hours.. /The water flowing from the wells cited is, we bolieve, whole some aud good for domestio use, sev eral of them being strqp^jl/ miners*, and, as such, possessing very valua ble medicinal properties. Albany’s wells are highly esteemed from this standpoint, Bad one of the Charleston wells is regarded as an almost infalli ble cure for dyspepsia, and kindred ills. A very large and deep well is now being bored in Charleston by tbe water work company for use in tbe supply of the gity. A very important item, to which we will now refer— probably tbe most important—is the cost Of tbe several wells, in relation to which we possess statistics: First, then, we refer to the Albany wells, the first of which was bored at a cost of $1,450 and the second, under contract, for $1,150, (not counting the machinery). Tbe cost of the Toomsboro well, exclusive of machin ery, which is now on hand, was $500. Thomasville’s well will probably cost far in excess of either of the above, as the first outlay for machinery, in that riage drive be opened down Newcas tle and aronnd the marsh to.fJlauces- ter street, &U., &c., and tho • report was adopted., Th« recommendation of tbe com mittee on streets, drains and bridges, that one dozen.
