DEATH DY TIE SMOKE OF LAMPS.
From tie Boston DailY .7!rsrtisyr

The Dedham Register gives tie tu.!oong ac-
count Of fatal accident from the careless or un-
shiliul manner OF trimming common lamp. II i
RENAL kable that similar disasters have not happen
I'd before, from the very great want of Isnent,
often observed, in the manner Of burning lamps
The use OF lamps in families, a substitute for
candles, Las been, within few years, greatly ex
tended in the country, and L is, perhaps, not sur
ptising that persons who have been but short
time accustomed to Tie use Of them, should not
know how to burn them properly and that, con-
seguently. the rooms where they are used should
be SO often filled with smoke, and blackened with
SCOT. 1t appears not to lie known to many per
sons who use lamps that. when trimmed properly
they never emit any perccpuble smoke, and that
when any smoke is visible, it i, a ctitain plnn
that the wick IS too high, and that the atmosphere
about it is becoming rapidly filled With particles
Of SCOT, most injurious TO the lungs, and to the
eyes Of every one who breathes it, We have
known many Instances Of infamcd eyes. aud weak.
cned Sight. from this Cause, and, il we mistake
not, OF coughs promoted by II: and it Is not at all
surprising that the air ot chamber should become

The proper tole for adjusting the wick, i, to raise
It to such length as to produce the greatest de-
gree Of fame. without the least visible smoke :
