A CHEAP GAs.--During several evenings
of the past week number of gentlemen in
terested in the use of a cheap and brilliant
light for their places of business and dwell
ings have visited the Maltby House, upon
the invitation Of A. B. Miller, Esq, pro-
prietor, for the purpose of witnessing the
operation of illuminating the house with
petrolio- calcium gas, under the direction
of DR.. J. II. Connolly, Of Wheeling, Va.
Thus far it has proved eminently success
full, and Mr.. Miller is making arrangements
to use it throughout the establishment, to
the exclusion of that furnished by the
Baltimore Gas Company. The burners
yielded q clear, silvery brilliant light with
out any apparent waste, and the actual
cost is but one-ffth compared to the rates
of the Baltimore Company. For instance,
the same illuminating power which
formerly cost the Maltby House-ten dol
lars per night is now provided ct q cost of
two dollars, The gas is made from the
residuum of petroleum in combination with
lime, whilst the mode of manufacture is
entirely free from explosion, and so simple
as to be attended to by person of ordi-
nary NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. american.

VEGETATION IN THE MooN.-It was for
a long time the common conclusion among
astronomers that the moon was without
any atmosphere and destitute of water,
and that, consequently, neither animal
nor vegetable life could be supported on
its surface. But several eminent modern
astronomers have maintained the moon
has an atmosphere, though Of a very limit
ed extent. And quite recently, Mr..
Schawbe, German astronomical profess
sor, thinks he has discovered signs of vege-
tation on the surface of our satellite. 1t
is we'll known that there are certain dark
lines or scratches, as they appear, extend
ing across the slopes of the highest noun
tains in the moon. These have been va
riously explained, some regarding them as
the beds of dried-up streams; others as
the channels left by. torrents of lava !;
others as having some other origin. Pro-
lessor Schawbe claimed to hsve discovered
nthese lines greenish color, which ap-
pears at certain seasons, lasts few months,
and then disappears. He therefore regards
those lines as belts Of vegetation. If his
observations should be decisively confirm
ed by those Of other astronomers, it will
settle the question that the moon has both
air and water, and will therefore remove
any presumption against the existence OF
animal life on its surface .-EingliSh Paper.

THE TENNESSEE Notwithstanding
to the showing on file, the whole affair
appears to be somewhat panicky, and is
probably only ga big scare" The Ten
nessee Legislature is in session, and the
writer Of one of the statements is mem
Der thereof, and if there were any such
general uprising of the Klux-bux Klan''
as he seems to believe, the Tennessee
State authorities have the, first and original
jurisdiction Of the subject matter.
Neither Governor Brownlow nor the
Tennessee Legislature have made any
representation to the Federal Government
upon the subject, and it is scarcely neces-
sary to say that the first and only know
ledge the President had Of the alleged diff
fculties was from General G. H.Thomas's
dispatches to Grant.
1t is stated that General Grant has tele-
graphed to General Thomas not to take
any action in the Tennessee difficulty until
rcquisition is made upon him by Governor
Brownlow.

of Illinois, who moved the previous cues.

the purpose of getting ct vote, he moted
to table them; which was defeated-yeas,
8; nays, 1913. They were then referred to
the Judiciary Committee.
The rules may be suspended at any time
during the impeachment to consider bust
ness sppertaining thereto.
A bill relieving certain parties from po-
itical disabilities was resumed. Several
names were added, including that of John
4. Gilmer, as reward for having opposed
the Lecompton swindle. 1t transpired
during the debate that the purpose of The
bill is not to relieve from disabilities i'm
posed by the fourteenth article of the
Constitution.
Mr.. Beck made the point that in the
Garland case the Supreme Court had de-
cided that the general amnesty did the
work proposed by this bill.
Mr.. Bingham said the Supreme Court
could only decide cases which were before
it, but could make no decision which would
operate on the House or Senate.
The bill met with opposition from unex-
pected quarters and without taking &C
ton upon it, the House adjourned.
Senate.-Petitions Of Georgia for the
loan of 100000, of South Carolina for
the repeal of the duty on rice, and of
more negroes for money to 60 to Liberia,
were read.
Abill was introduced for the survey of
the Mississippi from Cape Girardeau to the
mouth for the location of levee lines, and

Adiutant. General Thomas was before
the impeachment managing committee on
Friday. General Butler conducted the
examination Of the witness, which lasted
nearly two hours. The substance Of the
evidence was, that at the reception on
Monday night General Thomas, whilst in
company with friend, was approached by
q gentleman from Newcastle, Delaware,
an old acquaintance, who spoke of the pre-
sent political troubles and advised Gene
raj Thomas to "stand firm The Gene
raj replied, cam | not standing firm +"
YES" was the answer; "but you must
kick that fellow out" (Stanton). "We
will do that" the General replied. The
latter also stated to his Delaware friend
that he recognized Mr.. Stanton only as a
private citizen, and would obey no orders
emanating from him that he (the Gene
raD was the Secretary Of War, and none
other. General Thomas, it is reported,
repeated the last before the committee,
and told them that such was his intention
that he would obey no orders Of Mr., Stan
ton, nor recognize him save as q private

STRIKE IN THE WORKSHOPS OF THE NEW
YORK CENTRAL RAILROAD COMPANY
Albany, March 15.-The workmen engaged
in the workshops Of the New York Cen
trail Railroad Company at West Albany
struck on Saturday for increased wages.
An order was issued some weeks since by
Vice-President Torrance reducing the
hours Of labor from ten to eight hours and
wages twenty per cent. On Friday an
order was issued fixing days labor at
ten hours, and increasing wages ten per
cent. The men unanimously refused to go
to work, and demanded twenty per cent.
increase for eight hours work. They pa:
raded the streets on Saturday about 800
strong, but made no violent demonStra-
tons. Dispatches have been received from
Syracuse and other shops along the road
expressing sympathy with the men, and
avowing determination to follow their
example. AS the order applies to the
Hudson River Railroad Company also, a
deputation from the workmen at East
Albany came over on Saturday to express
their sympathy. 1t is believed the strike
will be general On both roads.

A SUBJECT FOR SCIENTIFIC MEN.-It is
stated that since the terrible earthquake
at St. Thomas and other West India
islands, which singularly occurred at the
time that Mr.. Leonard made his purchase,
the Gulf stream has very nearly doubled
its velocity; and this phenomenon Is at
tracing much attention among scientihc
men. 1t was first discovered in the in
creased difficulty Of navigation near the
Florida Keys, even steamers finding 1t diff
iicult to weather points easily passed pre-
Ylously.
The cause of this singular change is
deemed worthy Of investigation by the
dons Of the scientific world, and it's practi-

a long conversation with old Ben, which
the Gazette publishes to the world. 1t is
not important or interesting; but the fol.

such thing as we are talking about should
happen, would be to see to it th at the real

them justice always; but they mast not in

rebel. What Radical does is right in
his estimation, and what a Conservative
