Xnhrovemenfs in Gas Light alhharastIs.
Mr.. Samuel Cegg, engineer to the Gas
light. Company, in London, has. made two
most brilliant, improvements in Gas Lights.
'.y1ey consist of fiat circular retu, divided
into compartments, and a gas.sovcrnOr, so
called. The latter 10 intended 20 alicviste
the unequal pressure Of tho gasometer, de-
sidcratusn that has 80 long been adcntly
wished for. BY mis- improved retorts, o2
per cent is saved in fuel where il took cigh,
hours to discngage a given quantity OF gas
IN the old cylindrical rctorts, the proceS Is
oow finished in two hours; and by shis i'm.
provement, from orc chaldron ne obtains
$4,000 cobic feet, where in the old way he
could obtain no more than 10000.
II will ba rccofected, that IL was owing
slnost to the individual and unprecedented
cxcciions Of this gentleman tha, gas lights
we're introduced into London. Ke was the
As, person who used gas for economic cal pur-
poses; he lighted his steam engine manu-
factory in Birmingham In the year 1879.
10 thi, country many Of our eiuxens begin
10 open their eyes 10 regard to the economy
Of thss light. We lately noticed tho progress
af Company In BALTIMORE. We arc ioIprm.
cd that the ci,ixcns OF Cincinna,ii (Ohio)
have cn,sred into this project with a ~piri,
that docs them honor; alresdy the greatest
part Of their city is lighted. How long
will New-Yotk yet sleep! As il regards
mechanical and economical improve monts in
shis city, but for The cxcr,ions of some few
individuals who would do honor TO aoy age
or county, am afraid we would degenerate
into batbArism almost es bad as that OF our
sboriginal inhabitants. - Coium5ion.
