Natural Gas.

Speaking of natural gas and the
chances Of its being conveyed from
Pittsburgh to New York for use in tn.
latter city, the New York Times has
this to say: cit is customary to speak
and think of this use of natural gas as
something strange and modern. There
could scarcely be a greater error. The
eternal fires of Baku,"i in Russia, have
burned continuously from remote ages
In the salt mines of China natural gas
is conveyed considerable distances in
bamboo pipes and burned for light and
heat To come nearer home, one Of
these gas wells was tapped at East
Liverpool, Ohio, in 1859, and has Civ.
en- no signs of failing to this day. II
is hard to be exact about the numer.
GUS gas torches which have long blazeG
and roarel throughout the Pennsyl
vania oil regions, but it is certain that
many of them have burned day anc
night for years, wasting quantities OF
light and power" Meanwhile natu.
raj gas is being rapidly substituted for
coal in Pittsburgh. At present more
than fifteen hundred dwellings, sixty
six glass factories, thirty four rolling
mills and forty-ive other industrial es.
Establishments are being supplied, and
as nearly as al be ascertained from
eight thousand to ten thousand tons
of coal are daily displaced. The larg.
est natural gas well in Washington
county, Pa, and the second in size in
the country, was struck recently at
Caronsburg.

THE EXPULSION OF RussIAN morn

THE EXPULSION OF RUSSIAN POLES,
LONDON, june 1.-The superstition
that the expulsion OF the Russian Poles
nom Prussian territory, where they
had settled to escape Russian desnot-
ism, was due to an understanding be-
tween the governments of Russia and
Germany seems to have no sufficient
foundation. Russia, it appears, is any
thing but pleased at the action of the
Prussian authorities, aud is engaged I'm
the execution Of retaliatory measures,
many Germans who have been residing
in Russia being forced to return TO their
native country. Hardly any notice is
given them that they will be required
TO return, and much hardship and suf-
iiering attend their expulsion. In many
instances these refugees reach the Ger
man frontier in destitute condition.
