Tpibvl af It Proeae Fate-Ins; tna Heata. The water-pipes went oa banting yesterday, pretty much all day, at the rate of a break every boor and a quarter. About fifteen or twenty new one occurred, and at Isst mid Bight there bad been abont forty of them. The largest one yesterday wae in large main In front of Adam on Broad way, between Court and Hunt street- spiureeu and blabbered there at a furious rate, threatening to Inundate the whole neighborhood for a while. Since the actual break it to mi out that it wu no anrnrise.

It was lust what sagacious and weil-in- tnformed membera of the Board of Pnblio Work! rec-ted "Every man's bind eight is better man said the colored minister. There i nothing in the mai.ner in which pipes wefe laid, break-, but every thins in the manner in which they were made. Pipes cast by the old method laying the flasks horizontally, in wiiich the mew was thick on the other, are the pi pea that hare broken, while those cait on eud, which is the modern method, bare stood the test. The Utter are no snore burden to put in the ground than the former, and no method of putting down the lop-aided main would save them from fracture. Many of the mains the loo-aided ones are very ancient, and.

if our information is correct, not a modern main, aast In the modem way, has broken under the Eden pressure. Afr. Foots said yesterday to an Ekqcibeb man that every break would be repaired tn two days: that is. by midnight to-morrow night. Mr Foote is quite sure that the letting of the water into the mains was done discreetly and properly and that the weakness of the mains was the pole 'cause of their bunting, and that the manipulation of the apparatus for putting water into dr- culaUon bad nothing to do with it Any real estate dealer on noting the location of the breaks will perceive that they are ail in the in-lot region of the city and close to Its north-erfftorder, while farther north and west, where pipes have been laid more recently, they hold the alar.

We bare not the means at band to give the exact limits of this middle-pressure area, but the breaks are north of Fourth street and east of Central avenue, with a Tery few exceptions. We were misinformed by a Water-Works asan as to the pipe on Vine street being the one used by the; ML Auburn pressure. The man was tired, overworked, and in a hurry, and is excusable. It is to be expected now that all sound wipe will bold the water. Mr.

Foote expect the breaking to go on in trie old thin-sided pipes till very weakness is revealed. The patching, of course, must keep pace with the breaking. We have not learned theextent of the Wlnnessof these pipes. Nor Is there any complete, easily accessible record of the age of the water-mains in the Water-Works office. It would be interesting and Instructive now, such a record would.

But the responsi bility for the ab- sence of data for such a record does not rest upon the present Board of Public Works to any great extent It has not been long since they turned off an employe who kept the record of his surveys in cipher. Competent men have been employed to plat the city and show the location of all mains and valves; in short, to picture the whole circulatory system of the Water-Works to enable any person of Intelligence to acquire a knowledge of 'them, which, iur a few years, has been carefuly monopolized by a few employes. There does not seem to be any occasion1 for serious alarm abont a total failure of the mains. An ex- rert in such matters, who examined the pipe at the reak on Main, near Orchard street, says it was not break, but a case of "cola-shot," in which the molten iron was poured into the Bask not not enough, and in meeting on the under side of the anradid not fuse. This defect would have been revealed by a bydrauUo test, such as has been ap plied of late years.

Heetlng- of tbe Board of Commis sioners at Pittabor; Yesterday. Special Dispatch lo the Enquirer. PirrsBCBO, Kovember The Board of Com missioners for the Improvement of the Ohio River met In one of the parlors of the Monongahela House, General J. K. Moorhead, President, in the Chair.

Three of the seven States bordering on the Ohio were represented. The members of the Board present were General Moorhead, Captain Thomas J. Power and Mr. George H. Thurston, of Pennsylvania; Messrs.

John A. Shank, ot Indiana; John G. Peebles, of Ohio; Captain John MoClure, of West Virginia. Colonel W. E.

Merrill, engineer In charge of river Improvements, was also present. After some remarks' by the Chair on tbe Importance ot the meeting, Mr. George H. Thurston, Chair man ot the Executive Committee of the Board, presented a report, after referring to the vexatious delay oi worn vj reason ot miquagea appreciation. The report says the Government Engineer have for two years been prevented from commencing the construction of tbe Davis Island dam at this city by the failure of the State to grant the United States the jurisdiction required by the latter before work could be proceeded with.

This jurisdiction was obtained at the last session of the Legislature. The claim of tbe Ohio States to disbursements, and large ones, from the Go verm en for this Improvement is broad and strong. From 1X63 to 1873. these seven States paid (633,652,500, or 87Vi per cent of all the Internal revenue collected in the United States. From 1870 to 1873 these same States paid 41 per cent, of tbe entire amount collected.

In a period of 8 years, from 1865 to 1873, Congress appropriated i45.000,000 for improvements of rivers, harbors and forts on the sea-coast. Fifteen millions of that Wisconsin, Michigan, and the lake shore of Illinois and Ohio had, while in a period of fifty years but g3.000.000 have been appropriated for tbe Improvement of the Ohio, contributing the largest proportion of National revenues. The seven Ohio States receive but a small Item of re-expendlture. The importance of the work is needed to be vividly impressed on Congress, the people of tbe nation and even the population of the section through which the improvement will be constructed in tbe accomplishment. Thus the Commission labors at all times at a disadvantage, having no resources st its command for the purpose of printing, publishing and obtaining statistics, attending sessions of Congress and for correspondence.

Should you not at this season take steps to secure such means as will enable tbe Commission to educate and arouse public sentiment on the importance and nationality of the improvement of the Ohio and its tributaries In connection with the subject-matter of our work, the success obtained by Captain Kads In the improvement of the month of the Mississippi by the jetty system can not fall to be ot interest to you. After remarks by Colonel Merrill relative to the construction of the new dam, the Commission adjourned. C0LIMBLS.
