Gas DTrIcuLTY.-Wm. Donphan entered suit
before Justice ID. Smith 10 recover Sl9 80 paid to
the Washington Gaslight Company under protest.
The facts IN the case were the above sum was
the arrearages Of the gas bill left unpaid by the
former tenant The Gas Company refused to let
on the gas until the arrearages were paid. Doni
phan claimed that this an Illegal exaction, and
paid the amount, protesting against the right of
the company to receive it. He then brought suit
to recover the money.
Justice Smith decided that the explicit condition
on which any party could be supplied by the Gas
Company was set out In the following regulation.
which was before the plaintiff at the time of his
application TO the company for gas:
g l3 The company reserve to themselves the
right at any time, TO cut off the communication of
the service pipe, fthey shall deem il necessary to
do so in order TO protect the works against fraud
abuse, and also to refuse to introduce gas into
any premises, until all arrcanges due them in the
said premises shall have been paid"
He further decided that the protest should have
been against the exercise by the company OF any
regulations under which they acted, which were
not conformable to their charter
Judgment was given for the defendant, and the
plaintiff was to pay the costs of the suit

The MEETING LAST NIGHT.-0ur friends had a
grand time at American Hall. The hall was crowd

posture was made hearable by hearing the elo-
quent and forcible remarks Of Hon. Messrs Harri-
son, of Ohio and Trippe, Of Georgia. The audi
ence often testified their approval and enthusiasm
by storms OF applause.
Meetings are held in this hall on every night in

REDUCTION IN PaIcE OF GAs.--0ur city readers
win be gratied to learn by the notice in our issue
Of to-day, that the Gas Light Company have re-
duced the price of gas, from the expiration of the
present quarter, to thirty-fve cents per hundred
cubic feet. This il in accordance with their pro-
mise in the circular Of March l4th, from which we
quoted at the time, wherein they stand pledged to
"reduce the price OF gas from time to time, as the
adoption Of every valuable Improvement and the
increased consumption may Justify" We hope
the company will not weary 10 welldoing," but
continue the true line of policy just begun, and we
are assured by many stockholders that such ia the
intention and, aso that effective means are being
taken 20 AVOID, for all time the causes of the mis-.
hap which lately led to an inadequate supply Of
gas for few nights.
We believe we utter the sentiments Of very
large majority Of our citizens In saying TO the COM
psny, give US an uufailing supply, day and night,
Of good gas, at fair price, as near the Baltimore
charge Of thirty cents per hundred feet as the DIFF
ference in the number OF CO sumers will permit
(the one having $500 the other l,700,) and then
the Washington public win stand by the company
as the pioneers in ths work of furnishing to the
