LAMP BLACK FACTORY BURNED.

The factory for the manufacture of lamp
black, at Sazon station this eounty, was en-
tirely consumed by fire on Saturday morning
last, about 4 o'clock. 1t was quite an extern
sive establishment and made lamp black from
the gas of well that had been drilled for oil
some years ago. 1t was owned by gentlemen
we believe principally residing in the eastern
part of the State. The manufacture of the
lamp black from the gas proved quiet sucs
cess. There was no insurance on the property
and the total loss is estimated at several thou
sand dollars. AS it was the only establish
ment of the kind in the county, there is general
regret at the loss
