The natural gas wells Of Pennsylvania
are being rapidly turned to account in the
manufacture of lampblack. The method
thus far has been simply to collect the
SCOT condensed fran the flames OF the gas
burned at the mouth of these wells. III
has been done in a crude way, but gas
wells are now being bought up and Sc
cured with a view to making this special
manufacturing industry. The quality OF
the black made from gas is superior, and
nearly the entire Pennsylvania product

The National Conventions.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec 4.-The managers of
the Western Union Telegraph Company will
have considerable to say regarding the place
of meeting of the national conventions Of
the two parties. There has been talk of hold
ing the Democratic gathering at Saratoga,
but the telegraph men object to this upon
the ground that in order to properly handle
the dispatches from there it would be neces-
sary TO go to great expense in the stringing
of additional wires distance of forty miles
Western city. In case a suitable building
cannot be procured in this city-one that
will hold at least 10000 people-it is likely
the Republican convention will go West.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1883-12-05

PROBABLY the following extract from a
speech made by Hon. John G. Carlisle, just
elected Speaker of the Southern House of
Representatives, may account for the almost
unanimous support he received from the
''sold South" The speech was not made
during the war, but was made in Cynthiana,
KY, Oct. %, 1876 only seven years ago,
when no war issues were disturbing the
country. Read it carefully, and then you
will be able to understand the vote in the
Democratic caucus better. Oh, no, there is
no "sectionaism" about Mr.. Carlisle, nor in
the vote he received for Speaker:
81 deny that the United States is nation
1t is a vicious system that has destroyed SOW
ereign States and oppressed 5000 900 Of peo-
pie in the South. Ii State has no right of
secession. she certainly has the right of revo-
luton. The Republican party wants another
amendment to the constitution. Why do
they want it? Is it not that the government
shall take the school fund into its own
hands, and appointa commissioner who shall
select the teachers and series of books to be
used in the schools, and your child and my
child be denied the right to learn the
alphabet except III such a book as
shall learn them to forget Washington
Jackson, Jefferson and the statesmen of Vir-
ginia and the South2 The most infamous
