GAS REGULAToRs.-On the LIST of January
we had Sterling Patent Gas Regulator" APP
piled to our gas pipes, and the result was, that
with larger burners and stronger, steadier
light, and burning more hours per day than in
December, we burnt fraction less gas in Jan.
uary per day than in the month before. To
make more accurate test, few evenings
since, given quantity of gas was burned in
eight and three quarters minutes, with the reg
ulator, which without it lasted only five and a
half minutes, showing a gain in favor Of the
regulator OF nearly 40 per cent On subse-
quent evening, the regulator was adjusted to .
higher pressure, and the same quantity of gas
was burned with it in seven and three quarters
minutes, which without it lasted only five and
a half minutes, or gain of nearly 80 per cent.
in favor of the instrument, When burning
without it, the flames were larger, but thinner
and bluer than before, with no more if so much
strength OF light as the soft rich flame of the
regulator.
This regulator is made and warranted by
the well known Wheeler & Wilson Company,
of whom A. II, Rowland Co. are the agents
in this city. Mr.. Rowland has, we under
stand, put in some thirty or forty during the
last few weeks, and we have seen a memoran-
dun of tests made with quite nu;aber of
them, showing gain of twenty to forty per
cent by the use of them.
A regulator Of another pattern was in use at
this Office some years since, which worked a
few years very well, paying for itself many
times over, when, becoming clogged and in.
capable of being cleared, it was taken off, and
that was the end of it. One point of excel.
lence about the present one is that it cannot so
readily become clogged as others /; and if it
should, it can be put in order as good as new,
by any person. in few minutes, ensuring its
usefulness as long as the gas pipes theme
selves.
TO all whose locality or other circumstances
give them a high or changeable pressure, this
machine would seem to be an article of prime
necessity, while to all gas consumers it must
be Of great value; as, from its instantaneous
self adjustment TO all changes of burning or
outside pressure, it will economic more accu
rately and carefully than the most prudent
consumer can by the management of his stops,
or by the use of patent burners

FIRE IN DANIELsoNvILLE, Cr.-The large
barn in Danielsonville, belonging to Mr..
Hezekiah Danielson, was destroyed by fire last
evening, about nine o'clock. The barn con-
tanned one yoke of cattle, four COWS, two year
lings, and one horse, which were burned to
death, and three thousand feet Of pine boards,
and quantity of farming tools, which were
also destroyed. The entire stock was valued
at 1915, and was insured for $175,

During his absence Mr.. Cough has lectmred
for the most part on the subject Of Temperatures
But he has given his two lectures on London
in the larger cities. They have been received
with great favor, and his success in this line
proves that his peculiar power as public
speaker is not confined TO a single theme. The
Buffalo Commercial Advertiser of Feb. thus
speaks Of these lectures =
''The people came out last evening to hear
Mr.. Cough, with rush. st. James Hall was
densely filled, and many left for want OF room.
But OF t. ose who got inside there were few
disposed to give up their places till the close
OF the two hours address. Mr.. Cough had
furnished so rich feast for his audience on
the previous occasion that we queried whether
he would be able to keep up the interest that
he had awakened 10 the close Of another lee
ture upon the same subject. But after we
entered the hall our doubts on the subject
were soon removed. London was by no
means exhausted.
Mr.. Coughs first lecture was, perhaps, more
amusing to the mass than the one last evening,
but there was not a greater exhibition OF
talent. In the lecture last evening the speaker
showed that he possessed not only the power
to make his audience fairly split with laugh
ter, but that he could touch the nober sens-
bilites, and thrill those who listen to him with
the ottiest sentiment. Mr.. Cough has evil
IDENTITY noble manhood, and speaks not
simply to amuse, but endeavors to make his
lectures tell on the side of human progress"

General Henry w. Benham.

1t is stated that General Benham is un-
der arrest, at Gauley, for letting Floyd es-
cape through cowardice, disobedlence of
orders or bad management. This will be a
grievous disappointment to the people of
the West, who have watched General Ben
hams course during the summer with pride
and pleasure, and have regarded him as one
of the few ive Generals in the service. The
Cincinnati correspondent of the New York
Tribune says:
General Schenck and Captain Piatt, who
have arrived from Gauley, bring strange re-
ports concerning General Benham. 1t is
the conviction of Rosecrans and all the
other officers, that Floyd was lost through
the al olute cowardice OF Benham. Gen.
Renham was ordered with 1900 men to
rush forward short days march, to cut off
the retreat of Floyd, who was receding be-
fee our main force. But he General B. J

sacks and muskets to pursue the thief dou-
bic quick.
The Cincinnati Commercial also says:
1t is quite unlikely that General Benham
is justly charged with cowardice. His
name has been too intimately and honorably
f77ociated with the battles fought in w It
ern Virginia not to raise presumption in
his favor now. But it does not seem that
be greatly overrated the force under Floyd,
and was led into other mistakes by that er-
ror of judgment. His policy, we are in.
formed, when Floyd took petition on
Cotton Hill, was to abandon Gauley, fall
back to Charlestown, and fortify. Ii such
policy had been pursued it would have

Our attention has been called to an arti-
Gle which appeared in your issue of the 9Th
ult., headed, A new branch of industry
for Minnesota" PresumiDg that said arti.
Gle refers to our business, as it contains
some errors, we take the liberty of corrects
ing them.
The undersigned are the lessees of the
above Mills, two of the partners residing
on the spot, carrying on the manufacturing
of Slaves, under their own super vision.
You will therefore please correct the states
ment lin the article referred to) that the
business is conducted by a competent agent
for an enterprising citizen of New York.
Having brought out the most improved
machinery from the East, and after enlarg-
ing and otherwise adapting the Mills to
our purpose, we have now in iu.l operation,
after several months labor and considera-
BILE expense, one branch of the business
that of manufacturing flour barrel slaves
and heads, of which we are now turn
ing out from fifteen to twenty thousand
daily. We are now placing in their re-
spective positions machines with our own
improvements, for the manufacture of pork
barrel slaves and heads, and slaves varying
in size up to ten feet.
We are here in the woods, amongst the
best of hard timber, and all judges who
have seen the articles we produce, pro-
nounce them unequaled in quality of mate
rial and finish of workmanship.
Chisago City is within ten miles of the
st. Croix river, by land +; but with the fa-
cility of Chisago lake, on which our Mills
are situated, we will be enabled to boat our
machinery within four miles of river navi-
cation.
