There Is enough Of ICapItRl In this
city that does not Glnd steady and safe
Investment at even ten per cent, ready
and willing to supply gas or anything
else for an assured profit Of that much.
Then why should the people Of this
city pay more7 Especially why should
they pay three or four times that for
the employment OF capital In q gas
works, beyond The termination OF the
present Company's charter7 AS we
have said before, the aggregate paid In
this city every year for gaa 10 very
large; and 10 not only o heavy drain on
individuals bat the result on the whole
Ia o large annual draft on the working
capital OF the city. Heavy taxes OF all
kinds tend To repulse and drive away
capital and business. High rents and
heavy expenses do the same. What.
ever swells these expenses inOrdlnately
10 therefore a general Injury 10 the
business OF the city. There ls no one
item OF expense Of which our business
men more justly complain than OF gas
bills. The smallest consumers pay for
their dwellings from S25 to $50 q year.
From these figures, others who burn
more literally, according to their
needs or ability 10 pay, run up TO 500
and beyond. Large business houses,
manufactures and hotels pay many
times this. The INTELLIaRNCER estab.
lIshment, which Is a small consumer
compared with many, has paid an aver
age OF $500 year for many years. OF
course the cost Of lighting our city must
DO large even with gas at q moderate
profit to the manufacturer; but we are
persuaded, from data In our possession,
that 1t could be supplied at two>thlrds
or one.hali the price now charged by
the Gas Company tS3 90 per thousand
feeD and still afford Il good profit on
the investment. The more our people
Investigate the subject between now
and the lst Of January, 1871. when they
will have the right TO manufacture
their own gas, the more surely they
will discover this to be fact. II 10 In

fCrred 10 the subject, and will have

In the Senate on Friday II resolution
was adopted that the Secretary of State
finish list Of acts passed by the last
Congress.
Mr.. Sumner offered a joint resolution
granting pension to Mrs. Lincoln, and
asked for its immediate consideration.
But Mr.. Edmunds objected.
In the House when the Cabinet APP
pointmcnts had been made, the House
took short recess. Upon re-assemb-
ling, the twentytirst District of Penn
sylvania election case was re erred to
the committee on elections, with in
structions to report which of the two
claimants has the lorin,o .f0cie right to
the seat.
The question OF the legal right OF
Georgia to representation in Congress
was also referred to the committee on
elections.
The House then proceeded to complete
its organization by electing its officers,
when the gentleman who served during
last Congress in the respective positions
of Clerk, Sergeant-at-Arms Doorkeepel
and Postmaster, We're all reelected. The
remainder of the session was occupied
in drawing for seats. Adjourned.

The Inauguration Of Gen. Grant
SCENES AND INCIDENTS.

LITTLE NELLIE CREATES a SENSATION.
During the delivery of the address
little Nellie Grant was lifted over the
shoulders of the intermediate special ors
and set down by the side of her father.
where she stood some time unseen and
unnoticed by HIM, but so smiling and
happy and brightly innocent, her pres
ence seemed to lend CLEAN of sunshine
to the scene, and the inc dent called
forth many EXPRESSIONS of pleasure and
admiration.
GRANT AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
After the delivery the address, Gen
Grant was driven to the White House.
He was met ut the door by Gen. SchD-
field, Secretary of War, who had been
left by Mr.. Johnson in charge of the Tx
ecutive office. Vice-President ColfaX
also accompanied President GIANT to the
Executive Mansion. The members of
the staff of Gen. Grant were all present.
An immense multitude had cOngregated
outside of the gates of the Executive
Mansion, in the belief that there would
be general reception, but the President
decided not to have one that afternoon.

.Hr. Hog in the cars.

Under this descriptive heading the
Erening Post does justice TO some of
the railroad experiences of all travellers.
Wonder if any of our young readers
have ever seen Mr.. III BE careful YOU
don initiate him.
We desire to suggest to persons Of an
inventive turl of mind, that some inn
provement in passenger cars is highly
desirable. If there was way possible
of arranging the seats so that two per-
sons could not be accommodated
disaccommOdated - on each bench, a
g.eat convenience would be gained, and
many weak mortals would be saved
from the temptation to hoggishness.
Go into car nowadays, ten minutes
before the train moves, and you will
find all the seats next the side of the
car occupied, and the long range of in
side seats vacant. Jones comes in with
his bride little too late, and has to put
her next a stranger, who scowls at her
ifshe looks little faded and odiously
ogles her if she is pretty; while Jones,
full of disgust, must sit apart, and is
lucky ii he gets place within sight of
the "beloved object"
Mr.. II. travels nowhere in pal tcular,
but we remember of seeing him a yea
or two since, on the ears between Essex
and st. Adams. When we took the
the train at Essex, every seat in the car
was occupied with two in seat, except
one, where was Mr.. II. alone; a large
number were standing. asked II. if
the seat was occupied: he pointed to a
satchel beside him and said it was.
Others made an effo"t to obtain the
seat with the tame result. We climbed
upon the wood-box and Dr.--of Ma
lone took seat beside us. At Milton
two ladies came in, and Conductor W.
endeavOred to obtain seat for one of
them with Mr.. Fl. but to no purpose;
he replied to them the seat was occu-
pied; other gentlemen gave them seats,
and themselves remained standing. At
Georgia, among others, the proprietor of
the "Green Mountain RenOyator"
came in and made pass for the vacant
seat At first Mr.. II. endeavOred to
keep him out; our Georgia friend proved
to be too much for II /; removed the
satchel and checked himself in the seat
beside him, to the great delight of all
the passengers. Mr.. IL. was from Bos-
ton. Such is life.

MONDAY, MARCH, s, 1869.
The United states district court.

We notice that quite II lively contest
has sprung up between the Windsor,
Rutland, Montpelier, and Burlington
papers, over the new term of the United
States Circuit and District Court, which
has recently been established at Burling-
ton by an act of Congress. These terms
of Court have heretofore been held at
Windsor and Rutland alternately, and
the people of those places, judging from
their papers, feel aggrieved that Bur
lington should come in for a share OF
the honors and convcniences.
II seems to us that the Windsor and
Rutland folks are Il little too selfish III
this matter for their good reputation in
fair dealing if they feel hateful, it
would appear better for them, now that
the thing has become fixed fact, to sup
press their exhibitions of hostility. The
peor lie of the state have paramount
interest in this matter; they are the ones
to choose accommodations, ard as the
business of the Court originates chiefly
in this North ern section, Burlington,
perhaps, Is the most eligible point for
the location.
Heretofore il has been very expensive
and burdensome for the parties int eres-
ted to be compelled to CO. with their at
torneys and witnesses, to the south end
to attend Court. The people in this sec
ton will be pleased with the arrange
ment, but perhaps their convenience
should not be consulted il really seems
too bad that they are not to be discom-
moded to please Windsor and Rutland.

"Stc'ifify is LOid."

We have received from Mr.. John A.
Riddle. Manchester, n. H., an agricul-
tural pamphlet entitled "Sterility is
Laid" 1t gives what appears to be
some very important experiments show
ing the effect of different fertilizing
matter upon vegetable growth. All eX-
traneous matter being absent, sand be-
ing used for soil, pure chemicals for fer
tilizers, and distilled Woter for irriga-
ton, the result was surely and directly
traceable to the effects of the fertilizers
used.
1t is shown that hlianus vegetable
mould-muck )added in any quantity, to
soil containing no lime will be without
effect upon vegetable growth the same
effect, or nearly so, if lime be added to
soil containg no humus; while both be-
ing present the crop will be largely
augmented, the other fertilizing quail
ties remaining the same. The absence
of one of these may be cause of failure
in many instances where muck or lime
alone is used by the farmer.
A practical adaptation of the princi-
piles elucidated by the experiments will
enable the farmer to be his own judge as
to the quality Of any fertilizer which he
may be DESTROYS OF purchasing, in the
market, as he has only to take Il sample
of the fertilizer and test it with the par
ticular soil where he desires to use it.
This test may be carried on in the win
ter, thus the soil and fertilizer, in such
