regular attendant upon this perennial gathering v
"The Albany Journal announces this piece OF
good news, and adds that with Republican or
ranization in the field the disgust Of the people
at the management of the city's affairs will i'm
mediately come to the surface and the inevitable
overthrow of the Albany ring will come many
months sooner" The Republicans of the rest OF
the State heartily congratulate their brethren at
the capital on the fact that they have at last got
together. The fall campaign is to be one Of great
importance, directly ,and indirectly, and it only
needs that spirit Of unity and of the earnestness
born of unity should prevail in every county to
insure Republican victory.

The New Gas,

The gas company ran out OF coal
yesterday and the prospect for light last
night was seriously endangered. The
Paul process gas plant, for which
Thomas H. Paul has applied for patent,
and now in course of erection, was tenn
porarily harnessed into service, and
the result was-the town had its best
display to date of gaslight. The ar
engagements under an unexpected stress
were, of course, very imperfect, but
the result more than confirms all that
has been promised of this gas. This
issue of the JOURNAL is printed by the
new gas. More gas news next week.
