Show i The prefect of the Rhiue has issued . an order dissolving the corps of Fran , ees tireurs, and .has ordered them to join the mobiles. The rumor of You Moltke's death is ' repeated. It is said those who had charge of the body were menaced with I" death if they disclosed the secret. It is rumored that the body of Yon Moltke was in one of the lead coffins which passed through Tours a fev days ago. Yon Moltko is a native of Mecklenburg. Bitsche is said to be in a terrible con dition. Before the bombardment the mobs plundered the shops, aud the inhabitants in-habitants taking refuge in the cellars were in many instances suffocated. manulactured with inexpensive works, and at a reasonable price, every little town, with even one well-built street, will have its gas works, aad the profits of the manufacturers will be more certain cer-tain and more liberal than tho.se now earned by ni"st country gas companies. The scientific and general press have repeatedly cal'ed attention to the field for discovery opened to inventors in solving the question. "What shall we do fir a sate light, more satisfactury than oil. and su cheap that the pnoie.-l can y-e it?" Many solutions of this ijiiuatiuu have been proposed, but hitherto experience has shown that all were inferior, for some cause or oilier, when brought into practice, to the old method of generating illuminating gas. The Pacific I'neumai ic Ga Company, Com-pany, however, claims to havf answered an-swered the ipicTtiuu fully, and is pie-pared pie-pared to erec t u:k which will fnr-nich fnr-nich ga-. fo e from all iuipurilies and superior in brilli im-y to the best coal fas. at from one-third to one.-iourih the co.-,l at which, in this State, coal gas. in quantities of from 2.'"" to 2'l.uoO cubic feet per day, c an be made. The principle of thc-e works lor suiull town, is the bauie. as that used in our dome-lie works: the difference is in the method of compressing the jtiiiospheic, and of charging it' with thu vapors of gasolene. Jn works for town a rotary air pump driven by a small steam engine, or other steady motive power, forces the air th,i,uth the gMMilene, making an excessively rich gas. This is collected into a gasholder, gas-holder, and th. li, by the admission of air direct from the. pump, it is diluted in the proportions of one, two or three parts of atmosphere to one of jias, as in the judgment of the operator, guided guid-ed by a test-light, may bu desirable lo bring the contents to the desired fjiinlity. The Pacific. Pneumatic Gas Company Com-pany has erected works on this principle prin-ciple at Mure Island, for the United Stales Navy P.ipartiuent, which are producing excellent gas at au tjtia-'Woioiy tjtia-'Woioiy hue ,iinrr. Gentlemen who propose invest. ng in any gas company for supplying interior town, are requested re-quested to call upon the olliccrs of the Pacific Pneumatic Gas Company, who will furnish accurate and detailed accounts ac-counts of the results obtained, and nc company parties 'inclining business to Mare island, for tho purpo.-o of showing show-ing tho works in operation.
