PENALTIES.

The Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes hereby give notice, that
every person taking, killing, or pursuing game, without first obtain-
ing a certificate, incurs a penalty of 201., and is also liable to be sur-
charged in double the amount of the certificate duty.
Any person in pursuit of game refusing, on being duly required to
produce his certificate, or to permit the same to be read, or a copy
thereof to bo taken, or refusing to declare his true name and place of
residence, also incurs a penalty of 201.
Gamekeepers are desired to take notice, that a certificate at the
rate of 11. 7s. Gd. will not authorise any person to kill game beyond
the limits of the manor for which he is deputed; and, in order that
a certificate at such a rate of duty may protect a gamekeeper, It Is
requisite, not only that he should be deputed by some lord or lady of
a manor or reputed manor, but also that such deputation should be
registered with the Clerk of the Peace, or the gamekeeper will be
liable to be surcharged in double the duty of 41. Os. 10d., and also to
be prosecuted by a ty common informer for the penalty of 201.
N.B. It is the intention of the Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes
to publish in a separate list the names and residences of all persons
surcharged in double duty for sporting without certificates.

THE UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
30 to 50 per Cent. Saved
To be had at the Patentees. 60, St. Martin's-lane, Charing-cross.
The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following facts,
The advantages resulting from the invention are various and
striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to 50 per cent„ the com-
bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any light
hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, and burns
steadily for any period ; and such is Its purity, that it neither affects
or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have
made to the Introduction of gas in dwelling-houses, to the expense of
fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, kc. ;
these are entirely obviated by the "PATENT UravaasAr. GAS
BURNER." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com-
monly supposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for
club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. One of the
small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum
Immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of
waste or trouble.
The merits of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing
every other known light., are shown by the annexed authentic
of opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.

and Impinging with force on the flame of the gas curved it outwards
in the shape of a tulip, while the oxygen of the air, mingling with
the earburetted hydrogen gas, produced a very perfect combustion,
The flame was quite white down the top of the burner, was very steady,
as was amply demonstrated by the excellent light of the Institution,
where these burners have been used. In comparing the consumption
of these burners with that of the concentric ring burners, and trying
the power of the two lights by the photometer, the new burner gave a
better light, with a saving of rather more than one-third."
