How BURNING Gas is MADE.-Many, we
presume, are not familiar with the method
by which the common gas burnt, is made
The process is simple enough when we IN
derstand it, as many Of our greatest discove-
ries are.
Coal gas, or carburetted hydrogen gas, is
made by placing camel coal in red hot CYL
eRder Of clay or iron, and sealing it up tight
ly. pipe leads of at one end, and through
it the volatile parts of the coal pass off in the
form Of gas; this passes through lime water
before il is allowed to enter the reservoir
The Underwater nbsorbs the ammonia and
sulphurous gasses contained in the coal; the
gas is thus Purified, and after il leaves the
lime water il passes through cold water,
which cooIs and washes it, Before the way
to purify coal gas was discovered, the sui
phuric acid gave great trouble; il blackened
white painted walls and burned hangings,
&c. This way of making gas is now 10 gen.
eral use. 1t is still the cheapest gas pro-
duced.

Very Hungry.

The following extract OF speech deliv-
cred by Mr.. Olds, of Ohio, in the House
of Representatives. IS too good 10 be lost
Sir: if Frank Pierce comes to the work
assigned him by the Democracy of the
country, as have no doubt he will, there
will be as big muss kicked up in Wash
ington city on the 4th of March as there
was at Mrs. Smiths house, las related by
my friend, the Buckeye abroad,) when
little Jake Smith ran over TO Mrs.
Browns, to tell her that dad was dead
marin was drunk the old cow had a calf
John had swallowed a pin; Jim had got
the delirium triangleS looking at the rora
boreax-l laughter and that amt all
NEITHER says Jake. What else, 'pon
'arth, can be the NATTER inquired Mrs.
Brown. why, Sal broke the butter
plate, Susan has split the pancakes, and
Toe has sat down in the skalding tailOw
we had for dipping candles, and one Of
the Maltese kittens has got his head in the
molasses Jug, and we can't get it out
and we are all SO darn'd hungry
[Shouts and cheers.] Mr.. President, in
my imagination, the Alb OF March is pas
sing before me, and think the Wing
Galphin office-holders pouring out OF the
various government departments, with
the tears running down their piteous no,
ses, and their lamentalion is, that Web
ster is dead, Fillmore has fiIibuslered,
Scctt has got Native American calf,
North Carolina has swallowed Graham.
and Tom Corwin has got the delirium tri-
angles looking for Northern Abolition
votes! Loud and prolonged cheering. ]
