GAs.-We have been overrun with communi-
cations complaining Of the operations Of the
Manhattan Gas Company. II seems that the
company Is not content with exorbitant
charges, but It selects peculiar and novel
modes Of collecting its bills. It's splendid divi-
dends seem to have made it not only avari-
cious instead OF liberal. but to have stimulated
1t TO unusual and unpleasant methods Of making
itself obnoxious to gas consumers. The conn
pany levy contributions upon the community
as the Dey of Algiers once exacted tribute from
Americans The time has arrived when CON-
sumers must say, "Millions for new company,
not one cent for the old one." The old COM
pany, it is ascertained, buy an inferior quality
Of coal because il Is cheap, and furnish an in
ferior article of gas at . higher tariff than
formerly. The plea that the Internal Revenue
tax obliges them to do this will do very we'll
80 far as 1t goes. But the Internal Revenue tax
does not oblige- them to furnish an inferior
article at higher cost - consumers. The Lsgis-
lature, which meets on Tuesday next, has in its
hands the power to require the company TO
conform with the provisions Of their charter,
or to repeal the charter altogether. .. ..r
TIE PsRPRTUiL .PREss.-We shall publish
the NEW York HERALD on the day after New
Years, as on every other day OF the year.
There IL no good reason why the public should
be deprived Of the news for twenty-four hours
after holiday, and hereafter the HERALD Office
will be always open for business, day or night,
rom one years end to another. Arrange
ments have been made which deprive none
OF our employees Of their holidays, and SO every
one will be satisfied with the perpetual press.
