lsaS or nO Gas

Angus, 9th, 1854, the City OF Dav-
export gave 10 certain person charter Of
corporation for maDufac turing and furnish
ing gas 10 the citizens Of Davespor, and for
ia" use of the City with exclusive privileges
for ten years. No one doubts but tina this
charter coniers upon the corpora'ot, privi-
leges and advantages which will he a source
OF enormous profit to them when the terms
OF their charter are complied with, and all
the citizens Of Davet poir who desire to con
sumo gas are supplied with pipes.
But for some reason there has bee0
manifest negligence somewhere, and ont Of
the sevcnty'f,e lamp posts, to b. provided
Tor the city, not one has been erected vet
by the Gas Company, although few have
been erected by private citizens. The Gas
Company made an agreement 10 pu; up the
lamp posts free Of cost To the CITY, IL con
s'dera'ion Of $4,000 of the City Bonds,w when
they duly received but here are the fruit
OF these bonds Z We have vet seen no
lamp posts. Darkness still covers the
streets with a gloom convenient for the es-
cape Of rogues and burglars.
There are some other usages which the
Company have introduced not familiar TO
Ias Companies in other places. They fur
h'sh Gas Meters for consumers, for the con-
'ehIence of the Company. and charge con
sumers from So TO 50 for putting them in,
ara rent Of % Get Is each month for the
use OF the meters! These meters cost s.,
and this rent Of 50 per year is not only an
unheard Of exaction, but contrary TO all right
and justice In addition to all these little
peccad,llos, operating heavily upon the
pockets OF consumers, II is now announced
that il is the intention Of the Company TO
charge the consumer for the alcoh oil used by
the Company in the meters! We would
III obesity ask &c this IS not spreading il on
little too thick Had the Company bet
Ter OF begin little more gradual, 50 as TO
ge, their customers htiie more accustomed
20 that kind Of operation, before charging
for alcohol? We hope the Gas Company
will not try 70 test the capacity Of their Gus
toners potience, for il might not prove as
profitable an undertaking as the managers
have anticipated.
Are we to have lame post; shall .e b
charged meter rent, and pay for alcohol?
Will somebody answer 'hese important ard
Interesting questions?

STORING RooTs.-This should now
be attended without much delay. Sc.
we're frosts injure the keeping quality
of most of the roots. They should be
harvested in dry weather, that they
may be as free from dirt as possible.
All leaves should be carefully removed
from them, tina, there may be nothing
left to decay. The unpleasant smell
arising from turnips in the cellar is
generally owing to neglect of this
precaution. Ventilation is important;
and they should be put up in narrow
bins to prevent them from heating
Potatoes should be slowed IN dark
cellar safe from frost. They are more
injured by light aud frost than any
other roots. Asserting them is good
work for RAINY days, if that has not al
ready been done. The smallest pota-
toes cooked make good beef and pork.
The n,iddling size We use for seed, and
the largest are for market and the Ia
