light by the mean process, 'fie glass globes used cuutain lilauisuts of carbou, maiie by carbonizing thin threads of bauibjo, aud tbe current generated aever escseits a certain intensity, being merely great enough to overcome tha resistance ofiered by the carbon in the lamps. The unit of snch pressure is called a "volt," aud the highest intensity reached by the current generated by these dynamos does not exceed 110 up matter how rapidly the may revolve, or how niAny dynamos are kept at work. Hence no danger' can arise, even by handling the naked wires, while with the arc system, where currents of high pressure are employed, great care must be eseroioad in handling the wires. The arc system diiFers radically from the incandescent Instead of a small thread of bamboo, there are two pencils of carbon, the points of which are op posite each other, bat separated by a space about a qusrter of an inch. When the dynamo Is set in motion the light is produced by the jumping of the current from one pencil to the ether, thus forming what is called the "voltaic arc." The jumping is effected by maintaining a high pressure, and as all arc lumps ara placed in the path of one conductor, or in series, the pressure of the otmenc tnnst bs very great to drive it through all the lamps and back ta th-j dynamo For inetaace if there are forty arc lights in a circuit and a.

pressure of fifty volts ia needed to operate one light, a pressure of two thousand volts would he needed to keep all the lights burning. Ia the system as arranged si the works of the Chester company this troa- ble is overcome by a very aitnple, yet efi'eotive device, the lamps bding' placed in what is known in electric parlance as tha "multiple arc." Both tho outgoing and tho incoming wires are tapped and tbe light placed between. This arrangement givea the current a chauce to return to the as all the lamps require the same degiee of electrical to biing them up to incandescence, the pres sure ib not multiphtd according to the number of lanjp-i.

'The Edison light," says Sir. Cochran, the manager, "is free from all danger from fire. The lamps otnit BO very little heat that; the most inflammable material wil not be ignited when brought in close con tact. Soonld a lamp be broken while burning, the filament is consumed at once by contact with the atmosphere.

To avoid all danger a safety catch, or onfc off, is supplied, by Mr. Edison, and sboaJd the conductor become overcharged, tkis im mediately the flow of the currant through the dataaged portion." tioa in the It eeruuuiy Editor Smitli or Murton Is Arrested by an HoSi-1 San.

The case was carried to the Supreme Court by Che South Ward Water Company aud was cot reached by th? court at the February term. This caused delay in the completion of tho new company's works.

"Atwr the organization of the new com jany every honorable proposition which could be made had beou offered to the oid company to join with the new company lor the pnipose of giving the city aud the joronghs a eopioui supply of pnre water. All proposals were rejected, aud while the old company did uot seem to be financially able to do this withiu itself, it was contesting the right ct any other company to do it "All propositions to the South ward company had been withdrawn aud all negotiations had ceased. The new company would now devote its effurts to the completion of entire new works, withont any canard to the old plant. The caae would be fought through the Supreme Court. It mattered very little what the decision was, as the South Ward Couiapauy, if municipal, (which ia tbe claim it sets up,) burely cannot be municipal beyond its chartered limits, which ara the Suuth ward.

It therefore cuonot prevent tbe new companies from occupying the other two wards of the city and the boroughs. 'The offer to leasa or combine with the S-jath ward company was from the iirst, thought to be the proper thing to do, that it might not be said au organized effort had been resorted to, which would -aeu the securities of that company, in meeting the general demand on the part of the people for a- greater quantity of pure water, both lor lire aud domestic purposed. Yat these oflois were rejected almost as insnlts. There is nothing left fur tbe new company to do bnt to baild a new (system. "It is trna that the old company holds than as it is snpplying wafer iu all thiee of the wards of the city, in fqaity or ou its merits, it should bo pi tooted by tho coiirtw.

This might be so, if. it were giving the people wnter in snob quantities aud quality as they demand. But it ia not doing this, but re- fabiDK to extend its pipes and pleadiug its inability." "A company that will rofuse to extend its pines to hundreds of henses and charge rates the old company does is a lama concern to ask anything on it mer- rita The County Companies are not in any way connected with Tha New Chester Water Company.
