most valueless product Of Petroleum OIL,
(restdLaHI) in combination with time,
or lime and coal, SO simple that two
thousand feet OF Gas may be made by
any farm hand or stable boy OF ordinary In
telligence in three hours. It has been
thoroughly tested upon such scale, at the
Mcclure House in Wheeling, and at the
country residence Of Mr.. j. p. GilclIrtst, near

Grand Democratic TOrchlight Parade mt

There was q grand cropping out Of the Newark
democracy last night, the occasion being an i'm.
mense torchlight parade, In which brewer boys.
butcher boys, boys In blue, boys in red boys In
white and many thousands OF men, women and
children were participants In point OF numbers
the turnout was decidedly the largest political de-
mOnstration that the present campaign has thus
far witnessed The streets through which the
procession passed, headed by q large caval-
and brewers, were nIed with citizens and
Their wives and children either side;
and as the vast stream Of fire. emitted from
something like 1000 torches, filed past cheer
upon cheer rolled up. Quite a number Of stores
and private residences were Illuminated and deco
rated with Chinese lanterns. On all sides the Ut
most enthusiasm prevailed In the parade were
delegations from several adjacent towns and cities.
Had there been little more precision In the matter
OF formation and marching the affair would have
challenged comparison with any preceding turnout.
II Is claimed, however, by the democracy that tine
marching Is of little consequence on election day,
whereas votes are sure to tell One OF the noticeable
features OF the parade was large wagon containing
thirtysix young girls dressed In white and wearing
party-colored sashes On the wagon, among numer-
GUS Others, was q motto with the words, ave want
a Union OF thirty-six and not twenty-sx States"
On the whole the turnout was exceedingly credita-
bic to party which processes to have very slender
treasury. Up to eleven O'Clock an incident OF any
Kind had not been reported that IN the slightest
degree calculated TO mar the enthusiasm which pre-
vailed.
