The "returns are meagre from the
election mthis State, and 'indicate
that Jacobs, independent Democrat
i elected by from,i,poo to 3,000 ma
jority. they also indicate the de-.
feat of the newConstitution, among
the provisions of which was one al
lowing only white men to hold office.
The validity of this election is ques
tionable. If Jacobs is elected, he is
chosen '- under" a Constitution which
does not exist, and in our opinion
there will have to be another election.
Jacobs is a Greeley man and only
allowed himself to be voted for by
the Radicals because, he thought he
had been treated badly by the party.
It is no Radical yictory, view it in
any light you will, if he is elected.

the forenoon at 10 o'clock, another at 2 and
the last at 7 in the afternoon. No institu
tion on the road, says the Richmond Even

immense ' amount of satisfaction that the
Great Eastern does. The fact alone that it
spreads three acres of tents, six in number,
is evidence sufficient of its gigantic propor
tions; but when we' remember that these
Immense pavilions are well filled with moral
and instructive" amusement, then some idea
of the1 grahdhess of this affair can be form
ed. Six tents will furnish just six times the
amount of amusement we generally get,
besides affording capacity abundant for all
who. wish to go, thus obviating the terrible

SOMETHING NEW.
Manufacture of Gas from Naphtha-A
Visit to the Works In this City.
Having heard much about the new pro-
cess'of manufacturing gas lately instituted
in this city, we, in company with" several
other gentlemen, paid a visit to the works
yesterday in order to witness the' modut
operandi and thereby form some idea as to
the practicability of the scheme. We found
that an addition had been made to the build-
ngs formerly and still used by the Com
pany, in which the new works are located.
In these, wood and coal, the usual material
for manufacturing gas, are discarded, ex
cept in heating the furnace, and the first
thing that strikes the eye of the visitor is
the perfect cleanliness observable on all
sides. Naphtha is used exclusively in the
hew process, though the gas thus manufac
tured is mixed with that made by the old
process. Mr. J. H. Eichholz, who arrived
here a little over two months ago and who
put up the new works, was on hand and took
a great deal of pains in showing us every
thing connected with the establishment
In one of the apartments we were shown
the large meter used, together with the
modes of ascertaining the amount of gas
manufactured in a given length of time,
measured by tens, hundreds, thousands
and millions of feet In another apartment
was what is known as the Photometer,
which tests to the accuracy of a fraction
the power of the gas, andwhen it has at
tained to the proper pressure or richness.
Attached to the Various apartments are also
the various pipes used in" transferring the
gas, ihe oil used in its manufacture, the
water necessary for different purposes and
the pumps requisite for forcing the same, a
description of which we have neither time
nor space here to give.
By the new process, it is claimed that
with one " bench," with three clear retorts,
an average of from 4,000 to 5,000 feetybf
gas can be made per hour, while with opal
the average is about 600 feet and with wood
about 1 ,000 feet per hour. It is also claimed
that seven gallons of the , Naphtha, with a
mxture of 47$ per cent of atmosphere and
52 per cent of Naphtha gas, will make
1,000 cubic feet of gas, which will give a
light equal to from 20 to 22 candles power,
while the common wood gas is only equal
to 13 candles power. The power of the gas
was demonstrated in our presence, by the
aid of the Photometer, and found to be
fully up to the standard claimed for it
Messrs. Gale & Rand are the patentees
of the new invention of making gas from
naphtha, and ' the right of manufacturing
it is vested in the Gas Light Company of
America, with headquarters in New York.
It is claimed for the new invention, ahd we
think with good reason, that it will give a
stronger, clearer and more brilliant light
than the wood or coal gas. and that it
emits no unpleasant odor, while only about
one-fourth of the force is required in its
manufacture. It is also claimed that in
manufacturing by the ordinary process the
retorts will only last from 18 to 20 months,
while by the naphtha process they will last
five years or more.- '
The new invention was first introduced
by Mr. Eichholz at Saratoga in 1870, 6ince
which he has started naphtha works in
Memphis, Tenn., Hamilton and Columbus,
Ohio, and various other places. It is also
used extensively in New York City and
Brooklyn. .
We advise our citizens to visit, the works
and see for themselves this great improve
mcnt in gas manufacture, which cannot fail
to impress itself upon all, and which we are
confident, is destined to come into general
use throughout the country, both from a
sense of economy and utility.
May he Worth Preserving:.
The Medical Home has the following re-
ceipte, which may be of value:
A tea made of chesnut leaves, and drank
in the place of water, will cure the most
obstinate case of dropsy in a" few days. -
A tea made of ripe or dried whortleber
ries, and drank in the place of water, is a
sure and speedy cure for a scrofulous diffi
culty, however bad. ...
A tea made of peach leaves is a sure cure
for a kidney difficulty.
A plaster made of. fresh' slack . lime and
fresh tar is a sure cure for a cancer, which,
with all its roots, will soon come out
For the cure or smaii-pox, apply raw
onions halved, under the arms, in the hands
and on the bottom of the feet; change often;
diet, chicken broth. Do not poison the
blood by vaccination, and leave posterity to
reap the rotten fruits of our stupidity.- Con
sumption, scrofula, and other loathsome
diseases are thus impregnated into the
system. Better by far, have the small pox
and be free from a living death.

The Conservative Jubilee In Fayette-
TlUA
The Conservative jubilee in FayettevUle
on Tuesday night exceeded in enthusiasm
anything of the kind ever before attempted
in that place, judging from the report in
the Eagle. The town was brilliantly illumi
nated, while the lights from hundreds of
barrels of, rosin along the line of march
taken by the procession lent its cheerfulness
to the scene. The procession, with A. B.
Williams. Jisa.. as Umei .Marshal, was
headed by the "White House" on wheels,
a structure improvised for the occasion by
the good people of FayettevUle, and which
was Intended to represent the . buUding in
which it is claimed that Horace Greeley is
to take up his abode, not only in imagina
tion but in fact, for "one term only" after
March 4th, 1873. It was Uluminated by an
almost countless number of candles and had
an imposing effect. Numbers of rockets
also blazed through, the. firmament during
the progress of the procession.
At different points on the route of the
procession the multitude was addressed by
various speakers, among whom we will
mention the following, in rotation : Hon.
T. C. Fuller, Hon- T. J. Jarvis Edward
Jones, F: H. Busbee, D. H. McLean,
Hon. D. M. Barringer, H. A. London, Jr.,
Hon. J. M. Leach, W. F. Campbell, N. A.
Stedman, Jr., W. C. Troy, J. H. Myrover
and J. H. Currie.
Everything passed off quietly and pleas
antly to all concerned.
Blayor'a Court.
i The following cases were disposed of yes
terday morning:
Eliza Nixon, Eliza Hill and Beda Bars
ton, charged with disorderly conduct, were
fined $2 25 each.
Frank Leviston, charged with drunken
ness. Judgment for the costs, $2 25.
. Ida Bates, charged with an excessive in
dulgence in stimulants. Judgment for the
costs, $2 25.
W. H. Harrison, arraigned on the charge
of forgery, was required to give bond in the
sum of $200 for his appearance at the next
term oi tne superior court, which was
forthcoming and he was discharged from
custody.
Sally Burner, charged with disorderly
conduct, was fined $2 25.
M. B. i Guage, charged with disorderly
conduct and using a knife-, was required to
pay a fine of $15 or go to the Work House
for 30 days.

No Turning; Point.
1 It is difficult to convince some that the
balls or cups attached to the anemomieter
on the roof of the "Weather Observer's
office at the foot of Market street, do not
occasionally reverse their course.' , They
will not admit that it is an optical delusion,
so confident are they that the balls" turn in
one direction a while and then take the
opposite coufse,and feeveral bets have been
lost and won on the subject. - Any one who
will take the trouble of. consulting the offi &s 'matter of course, draw his pay as usuaL
