INsLEY GAs.--The San Francisco Times OF Fri
day saws: We visited the Pacific Woolen Mills last
evening. by invitation, aud witnessed the lumlna.
tion of their rooms by the nsley gas manufactured
on their grounds. The light produced by this new
process Of manufacture is of superior britancy
and free from the disagreeable smoke arising fro N
gas made from coal. On the score OF economy It
has decided advantage over other gas. The cost
of manufacture is about 674 cents per thousand eet
and consumers can be prohtably supplied at 81 90
per thousand feet. The material used IN the manu-
faeture of Insley gas is pine wood. and the refuse
wool or cotton which accumulates under the ma
chinery Of mills and forswhich other profitable
use has been found except perhaps to fill up the low
grounds adjacent to the mills. The woods cut In
to fagots OF from to two inches in diameter and
of convenient length. say two feet and placed IN
retort set in brick. This retortis horizontal cyl
inder placed Immediately over furnace CRATE An
other retort Of similar dimensions contains the
waste wool and fire is kinded in the furnace.
The heat of the fire generating gas in each retort,
tant each separately passing through single pipe
to the gasometer. The gasometer at the mill has a
capacity of 900 feet, and is filed twice week for
their use. The process Of making gas was gong
on when were present, under the superintend-
ence of Mr. J. NJ. Whitesdes the owner OF the pat
ent in this State Permission has been granted by
the Board of Supervisors To a company to lay down
pipes through our streets for the purpose OF sup

informed il is in anticipation TO erect more exten-

THE ROCK OF AGES.

Tto' friendship fail Us In The hour
whamost We need helping hand
Tho dark porfeR.ioos clouds should lower,
And cast their shadows o'er the land;
Tho every pulse OF life should thrill
With disappoitment's aching pains,
We hear that voice, with-..Peace, be still,
The Rock OF Ages still remains.
Tho earthly love, in sylvan bower.
Should prove vain and worthless thing.
And youth bright evanescent flower
On desert plains its breath should fing;
Yet when gaze with steaifast eye,
On Heav'n's brilliant, starry plains,
We see it written in the sky,
The Rock Of Ages still remains.
Tho ocean waves in silence fail
To ebb and flow they have done;
Tho breezes fail to fill to the sail.
And ships lie ret,ing in the sun;
Tho earth's bright rivers cease to How.
And verdure dies upon the plains,
Yet in very souls we know,
The Rock of Ages still remains
Tho all the orbs that roll through space,
Should leave the circle where they run,
And rush with horrid maddening race,
To pierce the center-sun
Yet mid that crash Of worlds would be
place exempt from death and pains
refuge where the soul can flee
The Rock of Ages still remains
