REVOLUTION IN GAS LIGHTING We were much in.
terested the other day ct the store of Mr. N W. Iur-
per Nos 90 ard rs Bromfeldst., with the inspection
of an apparatus for generating gas from new maze
rial and the Joint patentees for which Messrs. A
& A. Davis of Lowell and Mr.. C. Cunningham Of
Nashua n. II. The material for generating the gas,
which is effected without the application OF external
heat and by mere chemical action consists smply of
zinc and BY dro-chloc acid Tbs yields gas OF great
purity and brliancy CONT ased with the coal gas,
The zane quantity yielding twice the illuminating
power. The whole apparatus is contained in GYM
der three feet ia hight aud sixteen inches IN iaineter
and BY meas of il every family may be their own man

Not only may every family thus manufacture their

pate really great things from this Invention Wine
on this subject have also pleasure IN calling atten-
ton TO new and improved gas burner, invented aud
talented by Biz Hiram NheeOck OF this city, aud
which appears to have many advantages over those

which it aords the mnutest proportion of coal tar IS
arrested and piecpitated, ell the gas Is consumed and
no carbOlc acid gas escapes 20 faint the atmosphere
Even under high pressure will neither blow, smoke,
Dor fill up and gives even, steady soft aud beau
iifs flame. But its main advantage, We ween, lies Ia
the fact that gives as we hsye seen by satisfactory
experiment. q 10 100 per cent more light from gwen

that the cost Of gss three Of these patent e reg
