cost about one nunareu ana eignty mousaua dollars, without any distributing mains, which would be about six miles long. It would not be safe to estimate the cost of the works at less than five hundred thousand dollars, without service mains, the cost. of these being paid by the frontage tax levied on properties in front of which the pipe is laid. Should you deem it advisable to prosecute the work, more careful surveys and definate estimates will be necessary, but the result will not vary materially from the above estimate. The difference between the amount mentioned here, $500,000, and the additional expense estimated in a paper on this subject published on Tuesday, $300,000, arises from the fact that the execution of this work supersedes other work amounting to $200,000.

The additional cost is, therefore, $300,000. The question is now simply this A reservoir and engine must be built at Flat Rock shall they be made available for sup-prying all the northern part of the city with water, and so relieving the existing works as to make them to furnish abundance to all the rest of the city, or shall they only supply their own immediate neighborhood? If the Utter plan is adopted, where shall we find ground high enough to build the new reservoir now needed to supply all tbe northern part of the city at its high levels A Trip from New Orleans A Northern lady who has just arrived at Boston from New Orleans, furnishes the following statement of the feeling in that city, together with a brief account of her perilous journey northward In New Orleans, and that section generally, the blockade at the outset was regarded as a trivial matter, not to be feared overmuch, as the opinion was general that ana rance would not respect it. However, now the conviction obtains that they may De mistaaen, ana tne apprenension is serious and general lest King Cotton may be hermetrically sealed, and with it, in that event, their fate. This, however, is as yet but an apprehension, and they believe that when Jeff. Davis, in whom they have entire confidence, sees fit to allow two or three actual conflicts, the war will end the Abolitionists, brought to a sense of their short comings and the prowess of the Southrons, will sue for peace The accounts of the numbers of the Northern army carry no dismay to their hearts, as they believe themselves individually equal to several "starvinff" Yankees.

Return to the Union th say they will not, but will fight to the last and seek re-annexation to France rather than do it. At the same time, too, they are preparing to do without coffee and other articles which must De scarce. JNear JSew Or leans, also they are attempting to supply, in some degree, tne demand tor shoes, and three conside rattle manufactories have been started. A word with regard to my journey home. About three hours' ride out of the city we came to Camp Moon, where about 3000 infantry are staioned, their equipments being very deficient and but little military order or discipline being apparent.

At almost all the stations by which we passed, numerous soldiers could be seen, liut, though at several times military companies got on the train, 1 never rode in the cars where the passengers seemed to think so much and say so little Scarcely a word was uttered by any one. A suspicious silence was enforced upon us all. Seizure ol Army Clothing, Buttons, bashes, Ac. From (he Cincinnati Inquirer, July 16. Everv day the Collector of this port and his valuable assistant, Mr.

John Follock, succeed in capturing articles contraband of war attempted to be smuggled via i.ouisvme to tne southern army but on yesterday the haul was extra extea sive, resulting in the seizure of several trunks containing military cloth and trimmings on the mail-boat, reputed to contain the wearing apparel of the claimants, who were passengers on the boat. The trunks and contents ara prizes to the Government, and are at the Custom House. At the express office a package marked millinery was fvunu to oe outtons. One trunk on the mail boat was marked Madi son, Indiana, and the party owning it took passage for that city; but the suspicion attachine to the trunk caused Mr. 1'Oixock to instruct the Captain to put oil' tbe trunk at Madison and let the Das sender co where he pleaded.

Bv a tele graph despatch the Collector has been informed that just before tbe boat arrived at Madison, the aforesaid passenger called on the officers of the boat and remarked that he naci changed his mind. and instead of stopping at Madison would pro ceed to Louisville, and wanted his trunk recheck-ed. The Ceptain informed him of his instructions, and put the trunk off at Madison. Upon opening it rolls of military goods and trimmings were found. Yesterday evening Surveyor Carson went to tte Ohio and Mississippi Depot, and while passing through the cars observed two suspicious-looking men, one having a guitar and the other a large package.

Both were arrested. Ia the guitar box was found three magsificent swords, valued at $30 each, and in the package of the other were four boxes of cartridges The two men, who appeared rather fleshy, were searchel, and around the bodies of each were wrapped rive military sashes, valued at 10 each. The two men acknowledged that the gooas were destined Suta, via Louisville, and that the owner, a Southern gentleman, was on the train, which had then been gone about fifteen minutes. General Johnston Falls Back on Winchester. The Richmond papers of Wednesday last announce the abandonment of the strong position at Bunker Hill by General Johnston, and the falling back of hi whole f.rce on Winchester.

The excuse given by the Enquirer for this second retrogade movement by General Johnston is as follows Passengers from Winchester confirm the previous report that General Johnston has fallen back upon that point with his whole forces. The explanation which gains most credit as to the object of General Jobnstoa's change of position is as follows Patterson has sheltered himself behind the women and children of Martinsburg, refusing to allow them to leave. He has aiso been reinforced there. Johnston cannot attic him, therefore, except at the peril of the women and children, and against large odds. He has fallen back to a point which commands th? various roads that enter the nerth end of the valley, so as to prevent McClellax, who lungs upon his left, from taking his rear.

Ia this position he will watch the enemy and entrench himself to await the attack. This movement of General Johnston was very distasteful to his men, and no doubt also to himself. But we trust, and those prepared to judge are confident, that it was wise and politic. The Ljnch burg Virginian has these additional particulars confirmatory of the above We learn from Professor Holcombe, of the University of Virginia, who came passenger by the Alexandria train yesterday afternoon, that he had been advised of General Johnston's movements by persons direct from Winchester. After the enemy had taken possession of Martin sburg, General Johnston sent in a flag of truce, requesting tbe place to be evacuated by the women and children.

To this arrangement our valiant enemies objected, and refused to allow tbe inhabitants to leave, holding them as hostages to secure their own protection. 9 The enemy thus manifestine their determination not to fight, except behind barricades of women and children, General Johnston advised his army to fall back and await the movements of the nessians. His men objected seriously to hi, stating that they had come to meet the enemy and wanted to advance and fight rather than fall back. The General had to make them a speech and expostulate with them before they would consent to fall back upon their entrenchments at Winchester. It is his determination, we learn, to ive them battle there, come in what numbers they may.

The Steamer Cataline. Alexander Ccm-mikgb, addressed the following letter to the editor of the Herald. World Office, July 15, 1861. My attention has been calVsd to an article in the Herald ol this morning, in wnich it ia stated that I am responsible for the charter of the steamboat Cata-itne. It seems to me that it would not be difficult to ascertain who was the irner of that vessel and who chartered It.

But it is enough lor my purpose to say tnat 1 lid no more knowledge of, uor connection with her ownership or charter, in any war. di'wcHv or Ljoiitcil) Uimm aiir of the ZIraLl. Yor obedient servant, Alexander Cff aminos. Ife endeavored to show, on Tuesday, that in fcnilding a reservoir at Flat Rock, as is now proposed, it would be better so to modify the proposed' plan as to place the large Cornish engine there instead of lower down the river, and con-npft the mains with the northern part of the city, whereby we should gain all the height between I the level of the water at Hat Kock. and tnai ai air- i mount, and, besides, obtain purer water.

This view is not presented as new, but was strongly Tirged by the ELgineer-in-Chief, Mr. II. P. M. Biekinbihe, in answer to a Resolution of Inquiry bv Councils.

We give a portion of his Report, dated September, 1S59, which will explain the whole matter very clearly: jEPOKT ON A SUPPLY OF WATER FOB THE TWENTY-FIRST WARD. To the Select and Common Councils of the City of Philadelphia Gentiemtn: In answer to the following Resolution "That the Chief Engineer of the Water Department be, and be is hereby instructed to re-Dort to the Councils the expediency of providing for the ertction of waterworks in the upper end of the Twenty-first Ward, tor the purpose of providing the northern section of the city with a better supply of water, and the probable cost thereof," I would report: That no appropriation having been made for making the necessary surveys and plans, it became necessary to make them with the assistance of such persons in the employment of the department, as were best qualified. The examinations have been but superficially made, in order that the department might present the subject before you, and if, upon considerate ycu deem it expedient to prosecute the inquiries further, an appropriation, say of five hundred dollars, will be necessary to make the Bor-vejs, drawings, plans and estimates. The section i the city embraced in the Resolution, Twenty-first Ward, comprising Ma-nayunk and Roxborough, contains a population numbering about twelve thousand. Of these, at least three thousand are operatives employed in the different factories.

This part of the city is much in need of a supply of water for culinary, manufacturing and sanitary purposes, and for protection against fire, as the property in the manufactories is of great value, and now almost entirely without protection against fire, except so far as they are supplied with private water woiks, which can be of little use, even in case of fire, to the mills in which they are located, and of none to the surrounding properties. From the dense population of parts of the district, the wells have become so contaminated, that the water in but few of them is now fit for culinary purposes. The necessity of a supply for manufacturing ana mechanical purposes, is evi dent. In addition to theTwenty-first Ward, the greater portion of the Twentieth. ard is without an adequate supply of water; and even in those parts in which water mains are now laid, the head is so slight that water can only be drawn at certain times of the day, and then not in the upper stories of the houses This district is rapidly filling up with inhabi tants, and the difficulty experienced in procuring water from the present mams is daisy becoming greater, while none of the reservoirs are sumciently elevated to supply that part of the city bounded on the south by Girard avenue, east by Eleventh to Dauphin avenue, tben south by Diuphin ave nue to Sixth street, comprising a large and im portent district The water works in the Twenty-second Ward (that of the Germantown company), will soon be found icadeauate, if, indeed, they are not now, for the rapidly increasing population of that Ward.

All this section of the city, which will, in a few years, be te-ming with inhabitants, and does net now contain less than seventy-hire thousand, must lock for a supply of water to reservoirs of a greater altitude than any now constructed by the city, as the greater part of the sur face of the ground is higher than the Spring Garden reservoir, which is one hundred ani fif teen feet above the dam, and the highest of all the reservoirs. Location of Works. A short distance above the Flat Rock dam, on the river, there are several sites well adapted jr locating a water works. There is, perhaps, no location on the Schuylkill where purer or better water could be procured, than from this dam, there being no towns for some distance above, and but little, it any, manutacruring ine water is aeep, and the dam is ntrea with sluices, so that there need be no fear of sediment accumulating in it, as it new docs in the Fairmount dam; and the shores, for miles, are protected by hills Pumping machinery cculd be erected above the dam, to raise the water to an elevation of two hundred feet, and hills of sufficient elevation can also ba found in the neighborhood, for reservoirs, or a reservoir of very lrge capacity could be constructed at a comparatively small expense, by taking advantage of one of the ravines near the pumpiDg machinery, so that ia many respects, this is a most desirable location. This would command Manayunk, Falls, Kenderton, and, in fact, mcst of the settled dis'rict above mentioned.

The reservoir would be of the same elevation as the stand-pipe of the Twenty-fourth Ward works, two hundred and thirty feet above tide, and should the works ever be connected, they could mutually assist each other. For supphitg Roxborough and German-town, it would require a reservoir elevated much above this one, say one hundred and fifty feet higher this would be the same level with that of the Germantown Water Company's reservoir at Mount Airy. Locations for a reservoir as above described could be found much rearer the centre of the city, but it would nc be safe to locate works rear Manayunk. Tne distance between Fairmount and Manayunk allows time for all impurities to separate from the water, but should works be placed a short distance below that town, this would not be the case, and the water would most probably be found objectionable. The Amount of Water Necessary.

At present, it is probable one million gill. ins per day wouJd be found sufficient for Manayunk and Roxborough, but should the works embrace German-town, fend all of the Twentie Ward, three millions would be the amount required at present. The increase, which ili no doubt be rapid, when once water is introduced, will make works necessary for an average supply of six millions per day to the first reservoir, and two millions to the second or higher reservoir. Eagihes, Reservoir and Mains. The experience of the department is decidedly in favor of pumpiDg engines.

It has now in operation one high pressure reciprocating engine, three condensing reciprocating engines, two direct acting (Bull) Cornish engines, and one balance beam Cornish eDgine, and we find the difference in the consumption of coal in pumping a given amount of water a given height, Between some of tne reciprocating engines, to be as fifteen to twenty-three, and between the best reciprocating engines and the Cornish engices, to be as twenty-three to forty five. It is therefore an established fact that the Cornish engines, althoagh most expensive in first cot are in tbe end the most economical. To pump six millions gallons per day, two hundred feet high, wouid require a pump thirty inches diameter of plunger, and twelve feet stroke of piston; a steam cylinder seventy-two inches diameter, and twelve feet stroke of piston. The main leading from the pump to the reservoir should be thirty inches diameter, and it will require about two thousand feet to reach convenient localities for erecting a store reservoir, which should hold at lease fifty millions of gallons. There are several locations where reservoirs of even larger dimensions can be constructed at very moderate expense, within the above described distance, from convenient points for erectin" pumping machinery at the river.

At this reser voir a smaller pumping engine, though of similar character, should be erected to force water into a second reservoir, about one hundred and fifty feet higher than the first descrioed. This engine would require to be about one third the capacity of the first, and the reservoir in the sama proporebn. and if Germantown should receive its supply from this source, the reservoir of that company could be used by erecting a stand pipe at the engine house. Distrlbutino Main. A thirty inch main should lead from the first reservoir to a central point in the Twenty-first Ward, say Dauphin and Broad streets; this would suoply Manayunk and the lower ends of the Twenty-first Ward, ihe Twentieth Ward, and such parts of the Nineteenth, and Twenty third Wards as are too elevated for the present reservoirs.

Cost of Works. Che expenses of works as above described, viz: Six millions of gallons to the first reservoir, acd two millions of gallons to the fevtccd; two engints; reservoirs tocju-ua fifty millions of gallons; thirty-inch pumping Great Exhibitioh of Stereoscopic Sorites in the present Rebellion, together with views in many parts of the world.

General Beauregard. The whereabouts of this notorious traitor has caused considerable discussion. Some contend that he was killed during the storming of Sumter, but of this we have no satisfactory evidence. Yesterday a report was current that this arch-traitor intended to make one grand rally and take possession of Baltimore but this we consider an impossibility. It is almost as absurd as the rumor of bis having procured a handsome military suit from the Gift Clothing Emporium of Granville Stokes, No.

YARD On Wednesday evening, 17th William Yard, son of Pearson Yard, in the 46th year of his age. Due notice of tbe funeral will be given. The death of Mrs. Rebecca Kevins Pattersn, published among the obituary announcements last week, is an event which seems to demand more than passing mention. In the midst even ot the absorbing interest of national affairs, we may not forget the tribute due to personal virtues which have served and illustrated social life.

Rarely indeed is such a tribute more deserved than by the late Mrs Patterson. All her impulses were for good, and Christian principle confirmed them iuto the habitual exercise of kind offices and practical benevolence. The great charm of ber character was unselfishness iu all things, the absence of ostentation, vanity and envy, and of those minor things which are the shadows of so many nobler natures. Her bright intellect and singularly original wit will be cherished with the memory of her moral worth by all who have known her in any relation MOURNING STORE. BESSQN SON, No.
