PERFECTION in LAMP OIL.—A PATENT.
CLARK'S PATENT SPERM OIL, only 55. per imperial
gallon, is bright as crystal in the coldest weather, and lasts longer
than real Sperm. It burns in all descriptions of Argand Lamps. The
great expense of Sperm Oil, and the trouble of common oils, can now
be dispensed with at pleasure. It is admirably suited for Solar
Lamps, as they will not want cleaning for years, and being so pure,
four gallons go as far as five gallons of any common oils ; so, in
reality, Clark's Patent Sperm Oil is cheapest. Families laying in
their stock of Spermaceti or Wax Candles, Soaps, &c. &c., will
positively save 30 per cent. in their outlay. This is no fiction, and
this system of equitable charges the public will support.
Samples sent in London, and list of prices, with description of the
patent article, sent on application to all parts of the world.

AT a SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING of
the " SALT TRADE of ENGLAND," held at Northwich,
on MONDAY, Augu,t 31, 1846,
The minutes of the last general " Chamber of Commerce," as
well as the report of the " Committee appointed specially for the
free opening of the Indian markets for the admission of British salt,"
having been read,
It was proposed and resolved,—
That the thanks of the whole body of the salt proprietors of Eng-
land are due, and hereby tendered, to their Committee, and the
gentlemen who accompanied them to the Board of Control, for the
able anti strenuous manner in which they have taken up and advo-
cated the question of the admission of British salt into Indialupon
fair aed reasonable terms ; and that in confirming the resolutions
passed on the 13th inst., the whole body of the salt proprietors of
England pledge themselves collectively and individually to aid and
support their Committee in carrying out the same.
That the thanks of the Meeting be given to Mr. Greenshields, for
the trouble he has taken, and for the pamphlet he has circulated on
this subject.
That the !present system of virtual monopoly of salt by the East
India Company being most unjust and oppressive to millions of our
fellow-subjects in India, by compelling them to surrender the
product of from one to four months of their labour for the purchase
of a first necessary of life ; and being also most injurious to the manu-
facturing as well as the shipping and commercial interests of this
country, it is advisable that a thorough knowledge of the workings
and effects of the salt monopoly shall be disseminated through the
country, and that the C mittee be requested to take such imme-
diate measures as they may deem best to give general publicity to a

Thai the Committee be requested to organise a fresh deputation
to the Board of Control, in conjunction with the Manchester, Liver-
pool, Bristol, Glasgow, and Gloucester Chambers of Commerce, the
East India and China, as well as the Shipowners' Associations in Lon-
don and Liverpeol. and such other public bodies as may seem de-
sirable, soliciting them to delegate members to join therein, in order
to represent their various respective interests.
That, in order to defray the expenses which mast be incurred by
the Committee in order to tarry out the views of the general body of
the salt proprietors of England, a subscription be opened in such
manner as the Committee may determine.
That the special thanks of this meeting be tendered to Mr. D. C.
Aylwin, of Calcutta, for the information furnished by him relative to
the salt trade in India, and also for the valuable pamphlet he has
written upon the 'subject; and that Mr. D. C. Aylwin be requested
to become one of the Committee for the free opening of the Indian

THE UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
30 to 50 per Cent. Saved !
_

The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following facts,
Die 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. 'lt 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, &c. ;
these are entirely obviated by the "PATENT UNIVERSAL GAs
BURNER." As the cost of laying on gas is much 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, aro shown by the annexed authentic
opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers,
Tuesday, 26th May, 1846, Sir Joliet RSNNIE, President, in the Chair.
" A gas burner of a novel and ingenious construction was exhibited.
The principal novelty was the introduction of a stream of air to the
centre of the flame by a hollow button in the middle of the burner.
[he air passing up through the hollow stem of the button, was
heated, and passed out by two series of fire-holes around the periphery,
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 carburetted 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."
