Company:
If hare not written sooner it is owing to the
fact that wished to take particular pains in as.
pertaining the power Of your apparatus and the
quality ofyour gas. am now prepared to state that
after fifteen days of constant operation there can
be no doubt as to the superiority Of both the APP
paratus and the quality of the light.
have kept sixty burners lighted in my residence,
and at the same time over forty more burners were
in full operation in my sugar house. both of which
buildings are more than five hundred feet distant
from the small construction containing the carbu.
rettor Notwithstanding the great distance the reg
arty and force of the light as good as if there
had been only two lights burning.
Allow me to tender you, and the inventors who
form the company, my sincere thanks.
Torlr most obedient servant,
A. D. BOCGERE.

down at from $1,000 to $4,000 year, and
desires that the assignment of alimony be
made on this basis.
Upon hearing the allegations embodied in
the papers submitted before him, the Judge
issued an order upon Mr.. Murray to show

During the month of December 1859, twenty -four
gasburners were used; twenty three nights of work
constituted that month and the New Orleans Gas
Company's bill amounted to $50 60. My oil works
are actually using twentysix burners, therefore
if that number had been in use last December, the
New Orleans Gas COmpany's bill would have been
&98 Is instead of $50 80.
From Monday, November H. to Monday, Novem-
Der 81, say six regular working nights twenty eight
gallons of oil were used in the Barbarn apparatus
2s gallons at Csc, SO &c. to-wit: per night 81 63ss
Twenty three nights would therefore cost $37 S.
and consequently constitute saving of $50 50 on
the New Orleans Gas Companys bill paid in De:
Cember, 1869.

BfRSvILE Or WORKS
New Orleans, November 23 1870. !
Charles Cavaroc Esq, President Barbarn Gas Light
ing Company:
DEAR SIK-It is with pleasure that express the
entire satisfaction which your apparatus placed in
my Oil Works on Bienville street, since five weeks,
have given me.
Here enclosed you will find a detailed report,
which will show you the economy which results
from the use of your gas.
1 have been able to ascertain with correctness
saving of sxty-one and three quarters per cent on
my gas bills paid to the New Orleans Gas Company
during last winter.
1t is but fair to observe that some of my pipes,
which were placed several years ago, are too
small and, notwithstanding this defect, the light
all over my works is us bright and brilliant as
heretofore. Considering the Earring caused by the
working of the machines night and day, and the
immense length of the gas pipes, consider the re
suits obtained more than satisfactory.
Believe me, dear sir, your obedient servant,
J. ALDIGE.

WooDBURY.-Garett Garnsey Brown. of the class of 1909, Yale College, died in the Woodbury almshouse on Saturday, October 1st, aged S6 years. He was Q native of Bethlehem, and after being graduated at Yale, at the age of twenty-five, went South, where he was engaged in teaching in fam- lilies of wealthy planters in Louisiana. He also preached as a Congregational minister but whether regularly ordalred or not, we do not know. Later in life he went to the SandwichIslands where he was unfortunate and lost his property. He subsequently, returned to Louisiana, remaining there un til shortly before the war, when he came back to his native place. He was provided for awhile by brother, but finally, being unwilling to make any exertion for his own comfort or benefit, was turned on to the town, and boarded at the public expense at the Woodbury almshouse. He retained his faculties to a remarkable degree until the end of his life.

We raised thir- ty-one thousand dollars at l5 mills, and are now in debt $l, 500. So much remains out of twenty thousand dollar war debt which existed four yea ago. This town has voted to psy$75 to each school district; also to insure thirty weeks schooling to the same cut of six thousand five hundred dollars appropriated, and the balance of ap- prOpriation divided according to the num-

D6% The Republican Convention of Massachusetts admitted two ladies to seats as delegates, and large minority, (139 to 196) favored the introduction of Wo- mans suffrage resolution. The Spring field Republican speaks as follows of the prospects of the proposed reform in Mas eachusetts:
 We think it was mistake to vote down the mod crate resolution offered by MT. Slack, and substan- tially adopted by the majority of the committee on resolutions. The vote against it in the con- vention expresses quite as much the unwillingness of conservative Republicans, like Mir. Jewell, to raise new issue, as any real hostility to the prin- ciple involved; while the unquestioned admission of women as delegates, and the affirmative vote of two;ffths of the other delegates. is recognition et the movement which it has never before re- oeived in Massachusetts. The question before the convention was fairly debated, and in all the dis cussions, the rulings of the presiding officer were fair and courteous to the minority; as was to have been expected from Gov. Bullock Another year will probably see the policy now postponed, freely adopted as part of the platform.
