more distinct statement of the fact OF he
departure of considerable body Of ms.
from that point inthe same direction. We

One hundred and twenty enterprising
looking young men took the Macon and
Western cars from this city this morning,
bound proiessedly for California, but it is
well understood here that their intended
destination is the Island of Cuba. Several
young men from Atlanta joined the COM
pany before it left. tits, perhaps, worthy
OF notice, in this connexion, that halfa doz-
en- boxes ofrifes were yesterday morning
shipped on the Atlanta and West P ONT rail-
road from this place.
By the arrival at this port on Saturday
last, of the schooner Viola, Capt. Webb. 9

had reached Cuba that Lopez was getting
up another expedition against that Island,

From this statement it will be seen that
the cost of a single burner is less than 6
cents per night, and when it is remember
ed that one burner will giveas much light
as ten tallow candles, the reader can ap
preciate the great superiority of gas.
But this statement was prepared for a
different purpose, viz: to show the safety
of an investment in the stock of the Com
pany, as a good interest-bearing fund. 1t
will bee seen that the net profits on the
capital 100000 are very nearly $4,000
over 10 Per cent Mr.. Hoy desires, if he
errs at all, to err on the safe side but bis
statement is entirely too liberal against the
Company. For instance, he has allowed
only 200 private consumers, when it is
confidently believed the Company could
start with 800 he charges the Com
pany Is cts. for coal and allows it only
10c. for coke, whereas the latter generally
sells for as much as the former; and this
same liberabty is observed throughout the
whole estimate. So well is Mr.. Hoy CON
vinccd Of the soundness Of his estimates,
and so abiding his confidence III the com
plete success of the enterprise that he au-
thorizes us to state that his Company will
take hayftke Stock if the citizens do not

thoroughly tested, he will find no Difficult.

thoroughly tested, he viii find no difficult
" whatever in disposing Of his stock
The proposition then now before the
people is for them to subscribe $50 1000 of
the capital stock and Mr.. Hoy viii take
the balance. We, for one, are very deci-
ded in tho opinion that, the corporation
ought to own the whole works and chat
instead Of works of the proposed capacity,
1t ought 10 erect such as Petersburg has
adopted, which cost only $4,000 more.
This increase Of the outlay would give
more than proportional increase, in
the capacity of the works for generating
gas; and as We may reasonably count on
large and an early increase of population,
1t would seem to be but the part ofwisdom
SO to construct the works as to render
them capable of supplying this additional
demand. Thispolicy is still more obvious,
when it is shown above that, even at a
cost of $4,000 the investment would pay
over ten per cent.
But we will not press either of these
points now. Let US first decide the main
question whether we are to have gaslights,
and the others can be determined after
wards. That the decision of the present
question will be alike creditable to the in
teligence, sagacity,and taste of our towns
men, we nave scarcely the shadow of
doubt. Richmond, Norfolk and Wheel
ing are already lit with gas, and gas works
are now in course of constructionin Alex
andria and Petersburg; and shall Lynch
burg alone be left in the dark : We re-
member how 10th Richmond was to en-
bark In this business, but having made the
experiment and finding it to succeed far
beyond the most saaguiae expectations, she
has added to her Original works and is
now negotiating for a still larger addition
In no single instance has the experiment
ialled, but gas works have invariably
proved to be immensely profitable to the
owners. Nor does the size of the town.
as is generally supposed, materially affect
the rate per cent. Of the profits. The lar
ger the town, the larger Of course must the
works be. Why, in Princeton n. j., a
town ofsome 25i Inhabitants, Mr.. How isa-
bout concludinga contract forthe construc-
ton Of gas works.
We hope to be excused for extending
tins article to SO great length, especially
when few words might have suliiccd !;
but we really have our heart enlisted in
the matter and should dcprecate, as a Sc
rious calamity, the failure of the scheme
We have endeavoured to present the sub
ject in the plainest possible garb, so that it
will strike the sense Of all, for it is de-
desirable that all should become interest
ed in the work. This may be easily done,
rs there arc few ofour citizens who cannot
raise s25, the price Of one share. Let all
give it helping hand and it Is obliged to
succeed.
