PUT - LADELPIAIA EVENING BULLETI
A BRAVE WOMAN.
The titer, of, a rianoway Bloteb.
Mentioning the recent - death of the - wife of
a gentleman of that town, the Grand Rapids
(Mich.) Eagle takes occasion to 'review the
singular career of the departed lady. She was
daughter to a wealthy farmer, owning his
- acres somewhere in - the - State of New York,
and, at the early*age of fourteen,contracted an
unconquerable .affection for a young :-man
named Chatincey H. Niles, an engineer,wbose
handsome person and commendable inten
' -tions-were-his-sole--capital -in—life.--Her
parents, upon perceiving her infatuation,
forbade Mr. Niles the - house; and under
took to keep the' little girl secluded ,from
aim; but their precautions- were in vain,
and the pair eloped together for the West. At
Fremont, in Ohio, where they ,were married,
a pursuing brother came sp closely upon their
track that the bride adopted the device of at
tiring herself as a boy, and• selling cakes, and
oranges at thezallroacl station. Thus unsexed
she not only evaded canture, but actually sold
an orange to her brother; and so pleased was
she thereat that, from thenceforth, the gar
ments of the Sterner sex were her chosen at
tire. The husband, after futile attempts to
secure other employment, was obliged to be
come driver of an' engine on the Nashville
and Chattanooga Railroad ; and the girl-wife,
still personating a boy, officiated as his fire
man. This was during-the war ; and, on
one of his trips, Miles ran his train through
a rebel ambuscade, and was severely wounded
- at - his-post of- duty. When-he - was - carried- '
into a military hospital Mrs. Niles accom
'milled him as his brother, and, by her assidu
ous • care undoubtedly saved his life.
Their next appearance was at the Madoc gold
mines, in Canada, they having caught the
auriferous 'Western, fever, raging at that time,
and going as brother miners. It being a wet
season nothing was to be done in the mines,
and they recrossed the border and took tem
porary residence in- Cleveland, Ohio.. ‘There
the career of 'the indomitable little woman
was destined to end. The exposure and hard
ships of the Canadian experience had ex
ceeded her power of endurance; aslow, dan
gerous fever ensued, and, once more in, the
praper garments of her sex, the wife went
home forever. .

by reason of the lifelike style in which the
riter is presented by his self-declared
tanslator, is a fictitious character, and remarks
hat " Gazul" is an anagram of "guzla," the

a collection here, printed, published, and
generally esteemed for that very 'local color '
ii which a collection of genuine Servian ballads
might perhaps be found wanting ? " So he
emained in Paris, and wrote a number of
Iramatic pieces, which it pleased him to
attribute to " Clara Gazul," and among which
the original " La Perichole " is to be found.
'Me Bloomfield, New York Gas Well--
Testing she Quality of the Light.
(From the Rochester Democrat, Aug. 4.1
The possibility of obtaining, in many places,
supply of natural gas directly from the rocks,
oot onlradequate-in quality and quantity for
illuminatino. b purposes, but also as a fuel in its
most perfect form , for driving machinery on
tile grandest scale,
realized.
1
about' to be
Ihe village of Fredonia, this State, has been
ighted chiefly with natural gas for many years.
.1t Erie, Pennsylvania, twelve different gas
ells are now pouring out their inexhaustible
-cream of gaseous fuel—one of them driving a
loge flouring mill, supplying the heat to the
( ioilers, formerly obtained at the expense of ten
;us of coal daily, and furnishing
esldes, all the light needed, while
uother well yields enough to propel
be pumping-engines of the city water-works.
•iinie of the wells at Erie have been in use fes
veral years. Our readers are, no doubt,
ware that the wonderful gas fountain, less
•;7an twenty-five miles to the south of this city,
West Bloomfield, Ontario County, which fui
e last five years, has, been, an object. of so
iiinelreuriosity and scientific researches, has
i.ore recently become a matter of importance

apable of being speedily utilized. The project
supplying this city with gas from this source
enders the development of this enterprise of
pecial interest to our citizens. About a yew
go a company of the most respectable and
ealthy gentlemen of Elmira purchased this
rope! ty with a view of turning it to some
doable account. To satisfy themselves of its
due and of the uses to which the gas might
e most profitably applied, Prof. Lattimore,
f the - University of this city, was
H gaged by the Company to make a scientific
a‘estigation of the chemical qualities of the
is, and also to ascertain the daily product.
.is investigations, which were commenced
me weeks ago, at once indicated a gas of a
gh degree of purity, and especially free from
Dose qualities which are so objectionable in
dinary-coal gas. The volume of gas issuing
ially from the well proved to be surprisingly
eat—it is enormous, far exceeding the quanti
iy produced by any other well in the world.
Prof. Lattimore has made a second visit to
West Bloomfield this week, spending two days
:it the well, for the purpose of. completing his
investigation. The %illuminating quality . of the
- gas-its candle-power—was the'speeial subject
of inyestigation; This 'Was determined by'
seines of most rigid'experiments by means of
the most delicate and highly improved photo
metrical apparatus known to gas-engineers.
These interesting . tests were witnessed. by a
large number of steekholders, Dr. Cowles,
President, and Profs. Ford and Smith, Eilinira
Female College; Dr. Steele,President of Gene

whom expressed their delight and surprise at
the unexpectedly favorable results obtained.
