On the 20th of September, the town of 
Abergavenny was for the first time lighted 
with Gas, upon a new and improved 
method, recently discovered by the en- 
gineer, Mr. Simeon Broadmeadow. ‘This 
discovery promises considerable advantage 
to gas establishments, by superseding the 
use of the retort and purifier, as the 
common coke or coal-tar oven answers 
the purpose of the retort, and the purifier 
is rendered altogether useless. By the me- 
thod adopted by Mr. Broadmeadow, the 
quantity of imflammable gas is increased 
full one third, and, by the action of atmos- 
pheric air, rendered perfectly pure and 
free from sulphur.
