Those who carefully observed the storm will I think, agree with me, that when at its bight, the downpour was not constant for any Bonsiderable conscative period.: Lut that for short periods it was exceptionally severe, so that if the fall could have been measured for a limited period of say a quarter, or half an hour, I have little doubt that the result would have been at the rate of fully four inches per hour. In de signing works in which it is necessary to provide for a maximum fall, 12 would in my opinion be unsafe, in the light of recent experience, to cal sulato co a smaller fall than four inches per hour.
10- would here remark that it may b ved that I am assuming that all the water that falls from the clouds is at once discharged into the water source, and that I am allowing no thing for absorption. To this I submit that in case of a beavy rainfall,ooourring on euch steep alopes an those whieb form the hook-ground of the City, at a time when the soil bas boon Baturated by previous heavy rains, a careful observar will, I think, bo convinced that, pesotically speaking, all the water that falls in disebarget forthwith into the

No doubt exaggerated autimates are made at the time of the loss incurred, but this was not surprising, as the rain wrought by the uncontrollable power of this rash of water whs' evident on every side, and was on a sonis, and of a nature, to impress tas imagination.
