London Gas Companies.

At the vea,iy meeting OF the Gas
light and Coke G 'npsny of London,
February l6n. the presiding
officer -Inteu that the use of
electTici'y tor the purpose OF
illumiustion nd increased the gas
rental OF the g@s company. In many
places where the electric light bad
been introduced the gas accounts are
considerably larger than formerly.
While there was an increase OF zoo
electric lights in London during the
previous elk months, the increaee in
the lights of the Chartered Gas COM
pADy wa As, S6S. During the same
period the gas supply Was increased
by 3,07l new services and 8: 733 new
meters we're fixed. In the case
of the Savoy Thestre. in which
it will Re remembered the
systs m of incandescent electric
lighting was introduced. the
gas con pany had received nearly
$1,000 as gas renal since September
last. Mr.. 6. Livtzey made some re-
marks in which be expressed the
opinion that it would be for the inter
eat of the gas companies to increase
the day preseu 6 in order to encourage
the use OF gas for heating and cock
ing. This increased pressure would
of necessity increase the percentage
OF Leakage, but he considered that
the money would be we'll invested.
He alec called attention to the fact
that the increase of capital to meet
the increase of business had been for
the past six years at the rate OF ABOUT
$50 Der ton of coal. Formerly from
$50 to $35 par ton of coal was not
considered unreasonable, but at
present $25 is more than is required,
and il was thought that q eavlDg OF
some SO per ton of coal oarbonized
might have been effected. He also
expressed the opinion that nearly
$500, 900 might have been saved In
the coal account. In regard to the
use OF camel coal for enriching, it
was thought that three per cent. in
stead of ak per cent. would answer
the purpose, if in the Gistillation of
the common coal the company were
content to obtain 10000 feet instead
of 10, 300 feet OF gas per ton IS at
present. In concluding, be said that
q reduction in the price OF gas was
the best and strongest safeguard
against all competition. From the
report of the secretary it appears that
the make of gas for the half year was
nearly $500, 100000 cubic feet, Of
which about 5 per cent was unac.
counted for: 626, US tons of coal was
caybonized. OF the residual products,
We notice 6,879. 291 gallons of tar and
nearly 10 600, 600 gallons OF smmon-
zeal LIQUOR. At the meeting of the
South Metropolitan Gas company
the chairman stated that during five
DAYS of recent foggy weather the COM
pany sent out over LOG, 900. 600 cubic
feet of gas, which was about 1900
600 feet in excess of that sent out on
five average dsys.
During the half year the qusntlty
of gas made was 2,040, 027, 900 cubic
feet; the coal carboniEed amounted to
2O6. 372 tons, while of the residuals

Rev. and Dear Sir {:
1t is doubtless known to you that at
the last annual council of our diocese,
held in Vlcksbnrg, on the 10Th to the
22nd day OF April, an attempt was made
to elect an assistant Bishop, and that the
person then and there elected, for good
reasons, declined the appointment.
Before the adjournment of the council,
the following resolution was adopted:
RESOLVED, That the Bishop be request
ed, in case Bishop WiDgfeld should de-
cline. to call las soon as possible,n special
council for the election of an assistant
Bishop.
In compliance with this request,
hereby give notice that Il special council
of the diocese will be held Tuesday, the
2Sth day of November, in st. Andrews
church, jackson, commencing at 10 a..
M, for the purpose of electing an assist
ant Bishop and for the performance of
any other business connected herewith.
The importance of the occasion calls
for prompt attendance OF both clergy
and laity.
Each parish is entitled to the sam
representation us a slated or annual
council.
As it is doubted by some whether there
should be new election of deleg yates, or
the old ones hold over, in order to pro-
mote uniformity, and nv old difficulty, ]
earnestly recommend that a new or spe

day from Mr.. j. B. Corey, the advance
agent OF that popular and brilliant CON-
bination Huntley's Dramatic Company,
Aberdeen's Favorite. which will be with
us through Fair week. In regard to the
combination as at present organized, the
Corinth Democrat and Subsoiler had
this to say in its last issue;
Huntley's splendid Dramatic Company
gave two performances here, Tuesday
and Wednesday nights. On Tuesday
night they rendered "Woman's Devo>
ton" which is fine play. The COM
pany so fairly captured the audience that
on Wednesday Notwithstanding it had
been raining all day and the night was a
very disagreeable one, good audience
turned out to witness the performance OF
DESTINY" Of the performance we dare
not attempt any description knowing that
in short notice like this we could not
do them justice. The company is IN
excellent one and deserving of all the
praise imaginable and we regret oui
inability to speak in more definite
manner of them, for merit should be
commended at all times.

SEVERAL of our exchanges contain
congratulatory articles upon the fact
that the sentiment in Pennsylvania
and other Middle and Eastern States
is strongly in favor of abolishing the
Internal Revenue taxes upon every
thing but whisky and tobacco. They
must not be deluded by this mirage
it simply means such reduction
OF the revenue as will make any
attack upon the protective tariff sys-

DUTY.

In the course of his address at
New Orleans recently, while speaking
of the duty of the citizen, e. John
Ellis narrated with much eloquence
and feeling the pathetic episode of
the war which is epitomized below:
Fellow citizens: l heard story
about ''duty' while ago that gave a
new meaning to the term. I was
resting under the Blue Ridge. 1t was
evening there were great banks of
clouds in the west, where the golden
sun was setting Then l heard a
story of duty, that told me how one
was faithful unto death.
In 1861 there was young man in
Virginia, unlearned in colleges or
schools, who knew nothing of seces>
sion, nothing of the causes that led
to the war. A time came when be

ful cheeks of the women; he saw dead

invaded.
His not to reason why;
His but to do OF de-
so he went to the front and enrolled
himself with the defenders of his ma
tive soil.
Right there where I was seated
the battery of this young soldier had
been hoty engaged with the enemy.
Balls were falling around like a
storm of hail, and one stretched
him on the plain. Comrades bore
him to little knoll. Lying there,
he said: Il can do some duty yet.
Give me the reins of the horses,I will
hold them. You can go back to the
guns SO he clasped his cold hands
around the bridal reins. The Con
Tolerate soldier was on duty still.
The dreadful carnival of battle rolled
around him. His closing eye saw
the smoke as it shifted to the sky
The sounds of war grew fainter and
fainter, until the booming of the
cannon seemed like distant voices
whispering in his ear. Far off the
spirits of the Valkyrias came to watt
the soldiers soul to Valhalla. There
is great sbudder of the death chill.

at meeting Of the Directors of The
road, which took place last Monday
at jackson, Tenn. He informs us
that the contract for the building OF
the road will be let out at that place
on the 18th of November, the whole
line from Kosciusko to Aberdeen to
be let at one time The engineers
estimates show that the cost Of build
ing and equipping it with rolling
stock, depots, &c, will be about ST.
100000 The most expensive part
of the work will be in northeast
Alfalfa and South Choctaw. The
deepest cut will be at Blantons gap,
few miles south of Chester, where
it crosses the watershed between the
tributaries of Big Black and those of
Noxubee river MIR. McCool says
that Judge Fentress, president of the
road, assured him that work would
certainly begin at an early day after
the letting of the contract and would
be pushed through as rapidly as pos.
sible. He thinks it will be completed
