! The Paris Journals Of Sunday last have ar.
rived this morning. They are exclusively
devotedto detail of the proceedings in the
Chamber of Deputies on the preceding day;
when the report was mad on the new electi-
on law prejet. Such was the interest excit.
ed on the occasion. that the tribunes. j. is
represented, were thronged to excess, anc
the Hobbies were from an early hour besiesec
by individuals Of all ranks, who manifested
the most uncomfortable esgerness. The Per
sian ambassador, in grand eastern costume
was present at the sitting.
At the close of the report, great agitation
prevailed amongst the liberal party. Mum.

and Monday the 18th inst. was liked for its
discussion.

ed into gas. which produces light not to be
excelled, apparently not at all dangerous in
its use. This peat is of black color, close
tenure, and inexhaustible in quantity. A

Sir I. 1yrrwhitt, B. Tucker, Esq. R. A.
Nelson, Esq. secretary of the navy board
and many other gentlemen who were plea.

capabiliy fproducing gas, which was found
equal in duration Of burning to that obtain.
ed from like quantity of coal. The peat,
after yielding gas, provides excellent coke.
which is useful for many purposes in alchy-
my, chemistry, handicraits. cookery, &c. /,
is TO be hoped that this valuable discovery
(for which the company are considerably in.
debted to the experiments OF Mr.. J. Shilli-
bser) will not be permitted to sIsep. but be
soon called into active service. in all tho
towns lying around the Moor, by which great
