H E PATENT G A S REGUL A T insures a saving of Twenty-five per Cent. on the average upon former consumption, while at the same time a more brilliant light is obtained, and the unpleasant effects upon respiration, gilding, colours, &c., resulting from the escape of unconsumed gas, are, by a more perfect combustion, avoided. Gas is generally delivered from the Street Mains at a pressure of 11 inch of water, often reaching to 3 inches. Experiments have demon strated that when of good quality it is most econom'cally burnt at a pressure of 4-loths of an inch. The PATENT REGULATOR, when once adjusted, continues to furnish Gas at one uniform pressure, unalterel by the constant uetuations of the street supply, and in its action is entirely independent of the number of burners it suppli:s. At the undermentioned Offices an Experimental-room is fitted up to demonstrate the results as above stated, where numerous Testi monials may he seen, and every information may be obtained. 30; BOLD-STREET.
