THE BRrLLIA:T Gas MGcHISE.-This
new machine, in miniature, il now OIL
exhibition nt COIN Bros. store and even
when applied upon SO small n scale,
produces Il flame equal if not superior
to any gas jet, the fame being perfect
ly clear, md giving n light of mellow
brilliancy. The principle upon which
the apparatus is constructed IL quite sim
liar to Tint Of tn" ordinary gasometcr.
but owing 10 tho fact that atmospheric
air enters largely into. and is onc OF
the principle agents used in the pro-
duction Of this peculiar gns. the cost
to consumers is infinitely less than
that furnished by former methods.
Another, aud most important feature
OF the new machine. is its simplicity
whereby the comparatively slight cost
Of its construction brings il within tho
reach Of private individuals who may
at n cost Of from S2OO to $500, indie
pendent OF any organized company,
Greet their " works aud illuminate
their dwellings or places Of business,
with II light nowisc inferior to TINT
furnished by the gas companies Of our
large citios. Mr.. james Allen Of Pitts
burg. PENN, brother Of the inventor
ind patcntcc Of tho new machine, is
now here and has commenced the COIL
struGtion OF IL gnsomctcr in the ItGr Of
John Ainlcy,s hardware store. When
completed, IL will supply lhirty-two jets
for lighting both .Ainlcy'B and Cohn
Bros. store, its diameter being eight
feet b. eight feet i'll hight. Four gal.
Ions Of gasoline is required to tho
charge At beginning. after which the
addition OF, not to exceed, ono gallon
at n cost Of not moro tlinn scycnty.iye
cents, will supply the thirty-two burn
era Of usual size, to their full capacity,
n term OF five hours. Tho ~gns-holdcr
IL suspended in water after the usual
manner but simply by atmospheric mir
which is introduced from beneath,
through n pipo with tho aid Of all air
pump, so TINT when it is required 70
ruplrnish tho receiver, all that is nee.
essnry Is to charge bonzino through
II pipe md mir thy the pump through
the other. After witnessing tho per.
formancc of tho machine now being
bnilt for tho practical demonstration of
ita advantages over NIL competition,
wc will report our impression OF its
merits.
