h .I,uFFrSewELL's GAS GovERKoR. - This
invention. which is of recent date, is intended
to regulate the flow Of gas into the meters SC
that there shall be great saving in its con-
sumption. 1t is desideratum that has long
been wanted, and more especially in these
times, when gas is at SO high price. The
Gas Governor has been placed in several tene-
ments in this city, and we have before US GER
tificates from Messrs. Emery & Waterhouse
and Mr., Thomas Lucas as to its saving value.
The former certify that saving OF from ~ to
% per cent is effected by it, while the latter
is satisfied that he saves 30 per cert on his
gas bills by the use OF it. e4e 4
We have tried it in the Press establish
ment for short time, and We arr. perfectly
satisfied that, by its use. We save full rs per
cent in the consumption Of gas. The gas
flows freely, gives pure and good light. suf-
acient for our night compositors, who re quire
strong light to read manuscript and com
pose the types. 30 $3.50 tgt ,asa.e
Messrs. Stephen Davis & Parker w. Davis
are the general agents for this valuable inyen-
ton, for the States Of Maine, New Hampshire.
and Vermont, and for the Canadas. Thew
may be found at the Freeman House. They
will put on the Governor, and let persons try
it for time; ana then, if they are not satisfied
with itssaving qualities, will remove it with
out expense. So 1T will cost nothing to try
the power of the invention. o d 6i,ai

AN AFFECTING INCIDENT.
From the Ohio statesm


Some three years ago, a young man;
Gersheom Rose, residing at Claypoole's
Mills, near Evansville, in Muskinguni
County, enlisted in company B. 18th o.
vi. He left most offectlonate and de-
voted mother, of whom he was both the
darling and the pride. For long time
past, she had not heard word from him, as
he was with Sherman's army, 10 its grand
sweeping campaign through the South.
She had almost given up her darling boy
as lost. But unexpectedly, about ten days
ego, letter came from him. saying that
detachnent OF men from the 18th would
/ start in few days for Columbus; and he
| should come home with them.
The fond mother could hardly believe
her eyes when she saw and read the letter.
The news was too good TO be true. Il
formed the subject .oi her thoughts by day
and night. At length, on Saturday morn
ing last, as she was out in the yard of her
dwelling, attending to some household
work, neighbor called and stated that the
expected detachment of the 18th had arrived
at Tom Barracks, and that her son wsA
among the men. The full realization Of
the actual truth that her long-lost boy was
so near home, was too much for the moth
er's physical frame. She tainted and fell.
That loving heart throbbed violently few
moments, and then was still forever.
Saturday evening friend Of the family
arrived at the Barracks and announced to
the young soldier the sad news Of his
! mothers death That night he lett for
home TO attend his mothers funeral yester.
day. We have often heard Of death from
excess of joy at some sudden news; but, 1T
this case, the mother was partially prepared
+, for the good tidings. Yet when there
: could be no longer room to doubt that her
, beloved son was really coming home it was
