The 1'acitic J'neuuiatie Gas Company Compa-ny u prepared to contract with gentlemen gentle-men residing in Uula Territory and adjacent States, to erect gas work at their residences, and give them every advantage in l'jht, which inhabitants of large cities possess, at less rate than coal-gas companiea charge in this State. Also, to contract with hotel proprietor!, proprie-tor!, laloon and store-keepers, trustees of churches, principals of schools and colleges, and mining, manufacturing and railroad companies, to give them a far more brilliant light than can be obtained ob-tained from coal-oil lamps, at les cost in proportion to the light given. ECONOMICAL GAS FOR COl'NTRTTOWNS, The great cost of making, on a smail scale, coal gas, passably free from impurities, im-purities, has prevented the introduction introduc-tion of this prime convenience of medern times into small towns, and the generally Lad quality and high price of the production, where coal-gas works have been erected, in other than the largest cities, have limited the consumption con-sumption to less than one-half what it would be if the gas were god and fur-ni-hej as cheap a li;lit a kerosene oil When gas of fair quality can be manufactured with inevpen-ivt works, and at a reasonable price, every little town, with even one well-built street, will have its gas works, and the proSts tain and more liberal than thoe now earned by ui'ist country gas companies. The scientific and fneral pro's have ro-ated!y cal'ed attention to the field fir discovery opened to inventors in solving the .iieti.-n, ''What shall we do for a sale light, more satisfactory than oil, and so cheap thai the pooro.-t can u- it? ' Many olutions of this MUcstinn hare 1-,-,-n t.r,, . hitherto experience- has shown that all were infcri'ir, fir mm causo or other, when brought into practice, to the old method of generating illuminating gas. The Pacific Pneumatic Ca Company, Com-pany, however, claims to have answered an-swered the iti.'tion Cully, and is prepared pre-pared to erect wo;k which will furnish fur-nish ga, free from all impurities and superior in brilliancy to th bet coj ga?, at from one third to one-fourth the i-ost at which, iu this State, coal gas. in (ii:uititi.-s of f'p.ni .dO-l to -oiiiAi cubic feet per day, can be made. The principle of th. c works for small luwns, is th, saln(- as ,hat u-od iu our domestic wotks; the difl -remv is in the method of comprising the atmnvphcre, and of charging it with the vapors of ga-olcne. In works for towns a rotury nir pump driven by a small .steam engine, or other steady motive power, forces the air through the gasolene, making n rjtivssi el rich gas. This is collected into a gasholder, gas-holder, nnd then, by the admission, of air direct from the pump, it is diluted in the proportions of one, two or three parts of nlniospboro to one of gas, n, in tho judgment or tho operator, guided guid-ed by a tost light, may bo desirable to bring the contents to (he Jr.iroJ (itinlilv.
