YHE opening of the South London Water 
Works, in Kennington-lane, too: place 
en the 16th of Tune. The works consist of 
the engine house, with the apparatus, which 
is on a simple plan. Two reservoirs, or 
tanks; containing 26,000 butts, each 10 ieet 
deep, are supplied from the river + hames, to 
the height of the spring tide, and are worked 
by the steam engine upwards of three feet 
above the whole level; the water is then left 
to purify itself in the two reservoirs, and by 
the same engine is li ted 50 feet above its 
level, and supplies the inhabitants of Clap- 
ham, Camberwell, and its surrounding neigh- 
bourhood, and might be conveyed one hun- 
dred miles round, ona level. . A lar:e com- 
peny of nobility acd gentry were present. 
Mr. R. Dodd was the engineer. 
The Royal Naval Asyium has been trans- 
planted from Paddington to Pelham House, 
in Greenwich Park, which has been fer some 
time undergoing the necessary repairs and 
extensions, to rendery it at once commodious | 
for the purposes of its intention, and orna- 
mental as a public building. On the east 
and west, two capacious wings are added, 
connected with the centre building by hand- 
sume colonn:des. The Jower part ef each 
wing is to be appropriated to the school rooms 
for the children, male and female respective- 
jy; the upper parts as dormitories for them, 
and the servants of the ins:itution. It is 
proposed immediitely to extend the whole 
number of pupils to 1000, from every part of 
-the United Kingdom. The boys are taught 
reading, writing, and figures; and, where 
their capacities display fitness, are to be In- 
structed in navigation 5 and during the hours 
of relaxation, the elder boys are taught rope 
and sail making ; and they are to be instruct- 
ed in the rudiments of naval discipline, by 
regular veteran boatswains. The girls are 
taught to read and write, and are instructed 
in needle-work and household industry. The 
building fills up the vista between both wings 
of Greenw’ch College, to which it’ seems to 
form an appropriate centre 5 and itis intended 
that the whole shall be immediately com- 
pleted, fur the reception of pupils, oificers,
