A Few weeks since we alluded to new
ly invented illuminating Gas introduced by
Mr.. Sanders, of Philadelphia. This gas is
undergoing practical tests, aud apparently
with marked success, as will appear by the
following extract taken from the Philadel-
pbia Netr5 of the 18th:
We visited the works of the Northern
Liberty Gas Company last evening, for the
purpose of seeing the Illuminating water
gas properly tested. The whole place was
lighted up with the water gus int most
brilliant manner, the light given off being
much more dense than that of the common
coal gas. We were shown into the retoTt
room, where the gas is manufactured in
the following manner: The water in the
form of steam Is conveyed to retort, filed
With red hot charcoal; on its way thither.
it miugles With carbonaceous matter lroaiu
being the element Used in this case)' and
there deeomposed, in association with the
hydroca.rbon, resulting in gas of great
illuminating power. The light derived
from gas thus produced exceeds in strength
the light of standard coal gas.
The strength of the. light is to that of
coal gas as 65 ia to thirty-five, each gas
burning IN its appropriate burner equal
quantities in the same spare of time. It
is also much purer, being tree from all sui
| phurous or vitereous mixture, aud emits
an odor pleasant, rather than otherwise
The cost of Its manufacture Is not mole
than fifty cents per thousand cubic feet
| The quantity of rosin used per thousand
/ feet is from thirty to fifty pounds, the low
est amount furnishing better quality and
quantity of gas. 1t requires but one BUSH
el of charcoal to every ten thousand feet
of gas. The fuGl is less per thousand cubic
feet than is needed in the manufacture of
| coal gas.

The Presidency--Cassiu N. clay as a
candidate.
Nav H4vEy, Conn. Feb. 90, 1850.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Feb. 20, 1860.
To the Editors Of the n. Y. Evening Post;
address you this for the purpose OF
suggesting the name of a gentleman for
the nomination OF the Chicago Convention,
who seems to combine every quality and
Circumstance favorable to the success OF
! the Republican party. desire TO propose
TO the people Cassius Ma=cellus Clay, OF
i Kentucky, who, with; name which the
American people learned to love forty
years ago, spirit as dauntless as that of
Gracious, an eloqueuce pregnant with
I truth and patriotism, and an honesty above
either seduction or intimidation, unites
the hero with the statesman, and the NOR
alist with the orator No one, conceive,
will doubt, in the 6rst place, that the Sc
Letting of southern man 10 bear the Re
publican standard would give great ad-
vantage to that party and greatly enhance
its chances of success, venture TO assert
that, in the whole South, there is no man
so thoroughly identified with Republican
doctrines, SO eminently capable of carrying
out and fulfilling their bene6cent purpose,
as Cassius II. Clay. Respected by the
people among whom he lives, loved and
admired by those with whom he sympathi-
ses, houored aud trusted By all who have
been thrown into his presence, his name
would strike terror into the democratic
ranks, aud fill the hearts of their leaders
with that agonising suspense which is al
ways the precursor of defeat.
Truly we want another Jackson; man
:uuAiuching in the work of reform among
the departments of the government; we
want man who will not only defy the en-
mity OF the so-called democratic party, but
resist the influence of all factiousand COM
binNtions of men.
Il may be said that the fearless Lincoln
or the sterling Banks would be such man.
But while Clay possesses In very con-
spicuous degree the grand trait of courage,
he also represents what Lincoln and Bates
do not-a liberal ond patriotic Southern
state; n state from which we have always
heard the boast OF nationality, of liberality
and progress; a state which would Rppre-
ciate the distinction awarded her modest
son, and acknowledge it by. her co-opern-
ton. We must look to eligibility as well
as capacity; and if We can find them uni
ted, as we assuredly can, the obvious
course is to choose the man who unites
them III the highest perfection.
Such man is C:M. Clay. His honesty
would preserve the administration from
corruption; discourage would preserve it
from degradation; his frmnesS would pre-
serve it from premature decay his devotion
to the cause would preserve it from being
perverted to qpjYst endsi his administration
would he patriotic, because he is for the.
whole country;it Would be prosperous, be-
cause he. Is Il clear. headed and Discerning
Statesman; itwsuld encourage the march
of progress and improvement, for he is

BeIIaIr High School.

Nsasr.. Editors:-The exhibition of the
Literary Societies connected with the
BclIair High School, took place on Friday
evening, the gath inst. To say the least,
it was brilliant affair, and attracted per-
sons from all parts of the surrounding
country. The house was filled to over
flowing at an early hour of the evening,
and numbers were compelled to go away
without seeing or hearing any of the per-
formances. These consisted of Orations,
Essays, Dialogues, ETC., and did much hon.
or to the persons BY whom they were
spoken and read.
During the intervals between the per-
formances, the audience was entertained
with instrumental music by the Bellair
Brass Band, and also with vocal music by
Prof. ]. c. Archer aud his class.
Professors Berry and Taylor, the teach
ers, are both gentlemen of high scholarly
attainment, and deserve to be we'll pat
rcnizcd. Every one with whom we have
conversed, has voted it n good success, and
one gentlcmun, in particular, said he had

used against him, and he had to discon-
9tinue his efforts. He always used to be
particular in telling US not to acknowledge
the receipt of subscriptions from him, for
if we did that he would suffer by it.
This will explain what we mean by adj
vertingto the circumstances which surround
the daily life of hundreds of men who
would be glad to como and take part in
this Convention. They dare not do it.
They are not in an independent condition.
Their business RELATIONSHIPS families,
and their thousand dependencies are such
that their freedom of opinion and OF po-
litical action in constrained. They do not
desire to be put in the little despotic news
papers of their counties and illuminated
from week to week, and they know very
we'll that if they should come and attend
this Convention that such would be the
case. This, therefore, is the great reason
why we say that this Convention must
be necessarily limited in its representation:
Not limited in representation of latent
sentiment, but limited in Misrepresentation
of avowed aud organized sentiment.

THERE is dispute in the London press
in regard to the discovery of the North
West passage. The friends of Sir John
Franklin claim that the credit is due to
him for it and that his widow, in conse-
quence is entitled to the 82O, 900 offered by
the British government for that discovery.
The British government has already awarded
the prize to Sir R. Mcclure, the officer in
command ofthe expedition, which, sailing
from Bchering's straits, reached the farth-
est point eastward attained by any vessel.
From this point he abandoned his ship,
after being two years shut up in the ice,
and still proceeding eastward, Joined the

Home Jou-1el, describing a reception at
the Tuilleries. ga lady stood at our side,
who was plump, fat and forty. She wore
deep rose silk robe, founced up to the
corsage, wreath of deep rose-colored
flowers on her blonde hair, and held in her
hand bouquet as large as market bas-
ket. At the close of quadrille, the En-
peror came up and bowed in his easy and
graceful manner. The lady courtesied so
