Opis

Excerpt from The Government of London Notwithstanding the rapid increase Of building for domestic and manufacturing purposes on both sides Of the river, it had long preserved its early character for clearness and salubrity. Little heed was taken byeits easy-going Conservators of the gradual substitution Of steamboats for tardier means Of trans port, or Of the increasing refuse from noxious traders, and the outfall from deleterious factories. The quickness Of the current when the tide went down, and its supposed cleansing power when it rose, served for an answer to the fastidious who grumbled, or the hypochondriacal who refused to be com forted when told that the fish were as lively as yesterday and yet more abundant. But when science began to be practically applied to the health Of dwellings, and to the development Of husbandry, unfair advantage was taken Of the accommodating stream.
