An equally if not more important question to the Peak residents is the supply of water, which at present is very unentiafactory. The Gov-That srnment has hitherto done next to nothing in this mattor, and if Mr Loigh can show the authorities how a supply can be collected and stored, he will have performed a public benefit, for every resident is interested in the great health resort of the culony. Mr Ede, and some others think that the present system of drainage may be improved by Bushing, but we fear it will be impossible to store such a supply of water as to permit of large quantities being used for flushing purposes. If without this the system is noxious, we fear it stands condemned; Like Mr Granville Sharp, we don't see the necessity, in a place whera the bucket system is in force, for what is called the soparato system of draingo, and we feel aure its general adoption will lead to groa ter nuisances than oven those complained
