Gs- Pittsburgh (says the N. Y. Sum has Of
late been undergoing a transformation which, il
not as rapid and brilliant as the last scene of a
pantomime, is likely to be permanent and Of
transcendent Importance. The substitution there
of natural gas for bituminous coal as fuel, which
began cautiously some time ago, has during the
present summer gone forward with such a rush
that it is not too much to say that the title Of
"City of Smoke" no longer belongs to Pittsburgh.
At first, series of accidents, like those sometimes
resulting from the use of ordinary Illuminating
gas, made the people cautious of resorting to this
new fuel. For, while the odor of artificial gas
often gives timely notice of the danger of explo-
sion from leak, the natural gas is odorless.
Suitable machinery for distributing the gas was
devised, and it has rapidly made its way not only
into dwellings and stores, bat into factories Not
only the immediate but the indirect results of
such change, on so vast a scale, must be watch
ed with interest.

WHY GRANT VETOED A BILL

correspondent of the Albany IN. " Journal
gives the following interesting incident in connec-
ton with the veto of the bill extending the time
for the resumption of specie payments:
"Only day or two ago a gentleman who was
for long time in Gen. Grants Cabinet told me
of somewhat important historical incident which
may possibly have been prInred and be more
commonly known than suppose, but it is new to
me and venture to repeat it. 1t was touching
the memorable veto of the bill extending the time
for the resumption CT specie payments, an act
which stands out more prominently than almost
any other of the Generals two Presidential terms.
There were marked differences of opinion in the
party, and so there were among the strong Repub-
lican Senators and in the Cabinet too. The West,
including many strong friends of the administra-
ton, was strongly in favor of the bill. It was
speciousy urged that to veto the bill would bring
on a crisis and work ruin; that little delay
could do no harm; that it was not an extreme
measure in any direction, and that party differ
ences would harmonic upon the measure. The
General canvassed the Cabinet members upon the
matter and learned that they stood FIVE to two in
favor of his signing the bill. When talking with
my informant upon the subject he spoke of the
strong Republican support the bill had, and ex-
pressed most earnest desire to pacify the party
and please the Western men but said he, the
party must thrice aohat is right or not at all.
do not think this bill is right, and I intend to
veto it, The next morning before the Cabinet
meeting, the General asked the gentleman telling
me the story to sit down by his desk, and said !:
Il tried myself last night. I tried to see if
could find reasons to justify myself in letting that
become law, and wrote message giving all
the reasons could think of, and put them as
strongly as 1 could put them, to be filed with my
approval of the bill, and here it is, and he opened
the drawer, took out the paper and read it. When
he had finished the Cabinet minister expressed
surprise and disappointment. The General said:
You don't think that strong message? mo,
do not was the reply. well, don't either. I
did the best could in that direction to see if I
could make a success of it, and failed. am go
ing to stand by nay convictions. Here is another
message which I wrote last night that is more
satisfactory to me, and shall use, come what
will and he took from his desk and read that
other which the next day rang through the land,
proclaiming and guaranteeing the good faith and.
honor of that national life which his matchless
military genius, logged perseverance and subse-
quent generous forbearance and wise statesman
ship had done 30 much to conserve and perpetu-
ate."

G9-Some of our contemporaries are discussing
quite at length whether it is expedient and proper
for pastor to kiss the female portion of his charge
Without designing to engage in the discussion, we
may say that we think the osculatory practice will
not be INDUCED in to any hurtful extent if all
to so "salute" the female portion of his charge
without discrimination. 1t would thus become
one of the most disagreeable of pastoral duties
But that even would be no approach to the un-
pleasant practice of some denominations where
the brethren kiss each other! The sisterhood
might possibly be stood, but the line should be
drawn this side of the brethren.
