BORING FOR GAS.
The Probability of AN Early Attempt

Alta meeting of the Board of Dircc-
tors of the .Etna Rolling Mil, held At
their office on Saturday, it was decided to
call meeting of the stockholders al nj
early day, TO consider whether or
not they deemed it advisable to
attempt the experiment OF
boring for gas on their grounds in order
to supply the mill, if successful, with
gas fuel.
Thi, decision ON the part Of the Board
of Directors ha, probably been precipi-
tated by the report of Lewis Jones,
ESQ, general superintendent Of the mill,
and by The way, man of much
practical knowledge and good
Judgment, who had been TO Pittsburgh
on tour Of investigation into the mcr-
lis Of thi, great ccoaomizer in fuel,
which report i, decidedly in favor Of
making the experiment.

Importance of the subject, and

and have never given any explanation

adopted beg the Indulgence OF the
Hous, while briefly give the reason,
which have, and do still, influence my
vote. And here permit mo 10 assure you
that have been, and still am, guided 10y

convictions of what | conceive to bee my
duty in the premises. Heaven forbid
that / should 80 lar forget my duty To
myself. my country, or my God, rs to let
the success or downfall of party induce
me t. screen the guilty or punish the
innocent.

youth up, and claim AS much icalty

"A Democrat turns out To be political

punished, tor he has been too we'll raised
no, To have known better.
And while | believe that the principles
OF the Democratic party, aS handed down
to Us by our father rest upon the b:oad,
mmutab.e principles OF liberty; and
and while We adhere 10 them, the party
will stand likcrhc sturdy oak in lis ma
