THE DEAINAGE.
The Queen of Beauty Pump, which hat been going uninterruptedly since the start, stopped for a short time to-day for the purpose of altering the length of the stroke from five feet to seven feet, which will enable every stroke to bring up twosevenths more water than formerly. The pump is everything that could be desired, amply fulfilling all the prognostications made regarding it. The Big Pump stopped for a short time this morning. No measurement will be made till Saturday, but it has been ascertained that the reduction of the water is proceeding with satisfactory rapidity.
