Tue Patriot states, on what it cal’s good authority, that ‘‘forty-three Patrick Me- Quaids” voted for Messrs. McLeod and Blake. The fact, we believe, is that there were but three who showed their good sense in this way. It is easy to see the motive which prompted this slanderous invention of the Patriot is the injury of Mr. McQuaid, reporter for THe Examiner, by foul means. The attempt must fail.

Tux Patriot's abuse of Hon. D, Ferguson is daily becoming more disgusting. The Patriot will not even allow David Egan, Esq , to state that Hon. Mr. Ferguson has dealt fairly with him during the election campaign, without throwing doubt on Mr. Egan’s judgment in the case. We ne ed net, however, quarrel with the Patriot about the matter. Wher- ever Mr. Egan is bnew un his word is his bond

his judgment is unquestioned. Wherever the Patriot is known--——it is disbelieved.

MORE LIGHT !

rgv\uk Charlottetown Gas Light Company have imported some of “Bray's Bueners,” which they will supply and fit on Gas Brackets, etc., at a moderate cost to consumers,

These Burners are reported to be the best Flet Flame Burner yet produced, and will give a far greater amount of light than any other Burner with the same consumption of Gas,

Dr, Wallace, F. R. 5, E., F. C, S., Gas Examiner to the City of Glasgow, ina lecture delivered by him, calculated that £130,000 ($650,000) a year. are thrown away in Glas gow by the use of imperfect fittings, On the subject of Gas Burners he says: “ Another and as I think a better Burner is that called Bray’s regulator, and as [ consider these the best unien Burners attainable at moderate cost, I bave selected them for a series of ex- periments,

The Report of the Committee of the British Association of Science to enquire as to the best means for the developmen: of light from Coal Gas of different qualities—comprising Dr. William Wallace, Professor Dittmar, and Mr. Thomas Wills, F. ©, 8. F.1.C. E., showed that Bray's Burner's yielded the " greatest amount of light of ali the two or three score of Burners reported upon. which included all he Burners of repute in the market,

In a pamphlet upon Light and Heat, pub- lished by R, B, Taber, A. M., he says : “'fhe cost of Gas as compared with other illumin- ants is much more economical when rightly used, than many suppose, From experiments made for this purpose, the following resulta have been obtained. They were made by burning saruples ot Devoe’s Brilliant Oil and ordinary Oils, and testing their illuminating power, It was found that Coal Gas costing one cent at $3 per thousand feet, gave a light «qual to 18 candles, while Devoe’s Brilliant Oil consuming 27.4 grammes cost- ing halfa cent, gave a light equal to 9 candles,

“A good Argand or Johnson's Burner, the Burner's used in the last experiment, "will therefore give the light of 2 ordinary Oi) Burners in direct comparison, at no greatcy expense in the case of the finer and safer grades of Oil. Lights, however, on the author. ity of Scientists, are not to be compared in direct proportion, but in proportion to tke squares of their powers, and such a com- parison with the case of the use of Cas, ite cleanliness, freedom from odor and dangers, renders its use desirable wherever it can be introduced,”

As the above experiments were made with Gas at $3 per 1000 feet, and not consumed through Bray's Burners, it will radily be seen how much more economical it ig to con- sume Gas instead of Oil, when its price is only $2.63 per 1000 feet as now charged here when consumed, more especially through Bray's Burners.

Messrs, Goodwin & Co., of Philadelphia, the well-known manufacturers of Scientific. in- struments for testing the iliuminating power of Coal Gas, etc., say in their Circular to Gag Companies : “Iu presenting the Bray’s Stand- ard Patent Slit Union Burners and Lanterns, fur which we are the sole Agents in the United States, to the attention of the public, we are convinced that we are filling a want long felt’’ They furtheradd; * The yield ot light from these Burners is 12 to 20 per cent. greater per cubic foot of Gas consumed thay
