Norristowx, July 12.—The contamination in the Schuylkill has not yet reached this place. Tho water is still as clear as crystal and the Water Works are in constant operation. The moment any discoloration is noticed in the water the enginoer at the Water Works will stop pumping into the reservoir Numerous dead fish were seen between here and Phqpntxvillo along the rivor for tho first time this morning. Professor Oscar Carter, of tho Philadelphia Central High School, who is spending his vacation hero at his home, said to-day that he did not think a thorough and complete analysis had been made of the water at the points of cot lamination.

On meeting water charged with carbonate of lime, sulphate of liinc is which being iusolvable, is precipitated in a white powder. This accounts for the white Hakes seen in the watch at Potts town and other points and for the coating noticed ou the gills of the poisoned fish. Carbonate of iron is also formed, and, beiug likewise insoluble, is also precipitated. Professor Carter also says that Chief Engineer McFaddeti cannot be well acquainted with Stony Creek, because he is reported as saying that the contamination will not extend below the mouth of that creek, because it Editor Mclntyre, of the Long Island Courier and Justice Kavanagh, had a froe fight yesterday in a saloon at Long Island City, the former being angry because the latter granted a dispossess warrant against him.

If tho Committee today had offered us a new convention, before which the present Regular ticket—and the I ndependeut, too—were barred as candidates, a peace might have been possible. But as it is, even if a new convention were held Under the Continental Conference rules, it could not represent our views unless the ticket already set up by Senator Cameron was withdrawn from head to tail.
