E. A. Soullard, Chairman Committee. REPORTS RECEIVED FOR INFORMATION* Savannah, January 8th, 1866. The undersigned, Committee on Gas, to whom was referred the communication of Dr. F. T. Willis, respectfully recommend, That the Gas Compauy be authorized and requested to open the streets and examine their mains as soon as possible, so as to have the same finished before warm weather ; that at the same time they be authorized to ex amine the service pipes leading to the ciiy lamps, repair such as in their judgement and that of the Gas Committee require, and can be repaired, and that those which cannot be repaired be renewed by galvanized iron pipes ; that the Gas Compauy be requested io procure such pipe from the North, and make suitable contracts subject to the ap proval of the Committee, for tbe performance of the work required. The Committee have requested the lamps on the Bay and under the Bluff, to be put in order by the Company as soou as they can procure the necessary material to do so. There are about 550 lamps in the city ; of these about 300 are lit, of the balance, all need more or les9 repair, and about 100 of the lamps will require to be entirely removed; these with the new service pipe required, and repairs will be a very heavy outlay, and your Committee desire to be instructed as to whether in the present stale of the city fin ances they can be incurred. The Company complain that many of their glasses have been broken by unruly boys and others, and we must recommeud that the police be instructed to arrest all persons in terfering with the city lamps, and have them brought up for trial. The Company have ordered a supply of glass for the city lamps, and express tbeir desire to fulfil their contract with the city in all respects. It is but just to believe them sincere in their expressed intention. They are laboring under difficulties now as mucu as any Compauy, and we know of no Com pany that has passed through the late ordeal unscathed. The cost of material, expense of hands and other charges are much greater than when the contract was entered into, and we believe them to be heavy losers at their contract prices We ought to bear with them, therefore, in their present difficulty, particularly as litey express every desire to use every effort to fulfil their agreement John Cunningham, Chairman Committee.

We know the persons and cir. umstances, hence feel at liberty to indorse their statements; “Nzw Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1863. Dear Sir,—I have been afflicted many years with severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting some friends in New York who were using Plantation Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I com menced with a small wine-glassful after dinner. Feel ing better by degrees, in a few days I was astonished to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me, and I could sleep the night through, which I have not done for years. I feel like another being. My appe tite and strength have also greatly improved by the use of the Plantation Bitters. Respectfully, Jkditb Rdssel.” Reedsbdry, Wib., Sept 16, 1863. * * • I have been in the army hospitals for four teen months—speechless and nearly dead. At Alton, 111., they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bitters. * * Three bottles restored my speech and cured me. * * C. A. Flacte."

One little girl in particular, with pains in her head, loss of appelite, and daily wasting consumption, on whom all medical skill had been exliansted, has been entirely restored. We commenced with but a teaspoonful ol Bitters a day. Her appetite and strength rapidly increased, and she is now well. Respecttully, Mrs. O. M.
