The alkaline Suit called Stida, is at least of equally eriica eons use with pot ash foi - every purpose for which that . • suh statnce is employed, and it is WCII4IIUWII that a great part of rock S:lt consists of soda in a neutralized state; therefore, an effectual and economical prooess for the decomposition of rock Salt, in order to obtain its soda in a separrete and ap it.ircable'shape, has hitherto formed a desideratum io chemis try; and many processes, mare or less perfect, have been had remorse to In this view, viz. to Sri)3l - 3.6011 of the soda of rock Salt front its other constituent. base, niuriactie acid or spirits of Salt. But the heavy .duty to .winch Salt is ' sethject has hitherto Proved an insurowunt al.le harrier to any advantage at, all important having been derived,' either to the country or. to individuals, front the industry and ingenuity bestoWed in the Wont .; ue v,rtheleSS,' the great magnitude .of the object has oil a fvw ccea:iiiits induced the Legislattire to grant special indulgence mdiyidnals, for e.aniple, to the Manufacturers of glass, and to Messrs.

And Stall ly, lib very enlightened policy, a similar. privilege has bveh eXtended wherever ruck or common Salt is employed for the shfarallim of its ha,e, the aturiatic acid, fur the pur pose of fileaching.

They therefure humbly flatter theinselves,_ that the same spirit of liberal policy which has•granted to the nial;er of oxymoriatic 'acid the free natural use of rock or coffinion Salt, for the separation of one of its bases for the Service of the bleacher, may with perfect propriety he ex tended to the Memorialists, who have in view 1 he converting to such important national purpOses• the other, equally or more useful base, the soda which it contains. • Your Memorialists het permission further to state, that the rc ry first stage of their process is of such nature at to do away the possibility of 'the rock Salt employed in it, being after :wards recovered or brought hack to the state apprunible•to culinary purposes, or the other uses to which common Salt is i-mployed ; • and if the pra, er of their petition shall he favour ably entertained, they of eimtse understand that they shall be laid .unifel such restrictions as may be deemed necessary and e::pe dicta fur the security of the revenue.

ADDITIon to the Me:quit:AL of Gtotto'n MAcINTosu and Co. of Glasgow. • Although the Memorialists would greatly prefer being, allowed the free use of rock or common S.ilt at their Works already established, where their decomposing material is foot:A, anti where they could make mineral alkali to great. extent ; yet if that privilege cannot he granted•thern, they woa.dbuoilily crave being pet mitted to evaporate salt water, Conitrioed with Their dreomposing materials on the sca"chat, its such rnaiintr that no coomion Salt shall be found durin g; their 'opirations, or at least ' remain in a state' possibleto tie applied to any of the uses of common Salt which pays ditty, In order to secure the revenue in the most complete man ner, the 'Memorialists would - propose, instead-of the iron pan at present in use for making common Salt, to employ ooly vaulted stone cisterns, or kind of reverberatory furnaces, in wilted by themselves, fur evaporation. having the fire placed at one cod. from whence heat is communicated to the Surface of the- fluid or - materials to be evaporated front the flame, sinoke and heated air passing 'avidly over it ; thus effecting the required evaporation. ' Into these evaparatioz cisterns their decomposing' aterials th;dl i e tegnlarly introduced, in the proportioh of to = ts. for every 1,000 grlions of sea Water employed. It'is ine'vou( t h:s mode must of itself prevent the possibility Of ft and, especially when it is corisidered.that the whole mats ittust ht addition he necessatily'contaminated by all,the smoke and dust of [ix tire passing over and upon the contents of the r:r";lace: Still, in order to render this assurance doubly sure, the Memorialists would propose that lbs. of vitriol (sulphate copper) which is a most active and but' of all others perhaps.the most easily de- - tected h) the taste, shoult: be. thrown into their evaporating resets once or twice a day. If the prayer of the Mernorialist's petition shall be favour -111;;:- c.Jertained, they of course would expect to he allowed to remove the saline'mass produced in the way above speci fied, to 1::oir present established works, why re the process - of converting iL into mitotal alkali would be completed.

There are few farrows who are not aware of the itnportanct of Salt in preserving hay, and restoring it when damaged; urwe Of thro=e whom I have eunvet sett with on the sukject, have used it fm tbvse purpt,s,!4, tie to, to the extent ot ten to fifteen pitunds to the toil of hay, if the dnties o n Salt were repealed. Lord Somer ville has furnished Most satisfactory information oil this sub ject; and I know from respectable authority that it is a com mon practice in the United States of America, to sprinkle Salt upon hay when forming it lute ricks.. We also team from Lord Somerville that Mr. Darke of Dreedon, one of the most celebrated graziers in the kingdom, mixed Salt With his flooded mouldy hey, and that his Hereford oxen did better on it others on the best hay he had, and he was con vinced the Way had all its good effect from the Salt. - The use of Salt in fattening cattle . appears to be generally acknowledged, and I learn from a respectable and intelligent farmer (Mr. Sutton, of Eaton, in Cheshire), that he would give thirty toils of Salt a year to his cattle, were the duty re pealed. Mr. Sutton'S stock consists of fifty cows,• and as front his vicinity tu the Salt Works,. he could obtain the Salt laid dou'is at his farm at 21s. per ton, the expense of this ar tiele.would be but 12s. 7d. per head of .cattle ,per .annum. Lord Somerville informs us that he has practised for several years; giving Salt in its raw state to sheep ;- that they ate partiettlarlyland of it, and that it materially improves their health and condition; and where the rot occasionally pre vails,. there is little hazard in supposing that the disease will br much less beard of, when Sikh seem/cc:live is applied. In many parts of the United States - of America, Salt is gene rally given to cattle; ;nid we learn, front the respectable au-- thority of : Mr.Aoi - e, - who visited the western territory, that inthe neighbourhood of the Lake Oniandargo, %dui(' Salt is obtained at a cheap rate, the farmers are In the habit of giv ing it to their cattle, and that their stocks prove superior in rattle by 25 per cent. to stick as are not supplied with an ar ticle lo CSSEnt !HI not -only to their general .improyement but their health. It is a practice in'Chesbire to give lo'cows'a little Salt, when they are falling , off in their ; Mt. lulu kinson of Northwich informs me that he always resorted to it , with success. The excellent condition of the horses in the l'ock pits, may he additeed io favour of its benefit in fatten ing; cattle and keeping them iu health. Many ettnanted that they can attribute the longevity of their horses lii the good effects of Salt. Mr. Midfield of Liverpool. furnishes ati in stance in , his horse, thirty years old ; 6e constantly gate it Rock Salt to lick, placing it in his manger. Mr. Unwell in forms me that if it were not for the duty, he should Use great quantities - in feeding horses .and cattle. Mr. Yining has fur [fished us in the annals of . agriculture, with a most interest ing and satisfactory statement (obtained from the Memoirs of, the Royal Acadetity of Sciences at Pat is) on the effect of Salt in fattening cattle. From this Report it appears, that to the. unlimited use of Salt; was to be ascribed the 'circumstance fatty tinte; the nisi/Vier of sheep being hied aod reared On a ' sterile common, than would otherwise have subsisted on it, ritut that the wool of these flocks is nut only the finest in the Whole countrv, but beats the highest price of any in France. The fineness of the wind of the Spanish sheep is -also attri buted in a great measure to the free use of Salt. It is not therefore, 1 presume, a. extraordinary position - to say, that by a plover use of Common Salt, the same quantity qt forage might, oa many occasions, be made to go twice as far as - it could have done in feeding animals, had the Salt [seen withheld front them : if so, then we have here laid open to Mir view, an easy mode of augmenting the produce of our - fields to an amazing extent.; for it the same quantity of fo rage could he made to go, not twit,: as fat, but ime-twentieth part , fauther than it nose does, it would be the same thiog as adding one twentieth part to the aggregate praiduee of meat for beasts throughout the Whittle kingdom-, [l'o be contitined.] ANT IQUITI ES. . The relicts .of dista-nt •times are -well known .not. to be so common-in Devonshire as in some other of the English - counties: - A - curiosity, however, has lastly . presented itself to notice on Mr. I3owen's estate in the vicinity of.lvy- bridge, in the hedge of a field adjoining the first turnpike gate on tie Ashburton road, .does not seem to be known to antiquarians, or to have. been described in. any topographical . work con nected with the county. It is-a square opright. granitic stone, ineribed on two. of its sides, from top to bottom, but now converted to the. humble office of a gate-post.. .SOme of the letters are legible, and evidently partake of the old Saxon chat - acter ; but the tenottr oft he inscription evades "decypheritig, except by persons acquainted with such subjects.. Could this be discovered, it might tend to bring to light or rbicidate an event, either wholly unknown, or partip.lly involved in obscu rity. There are several barrows or tumuli on a hill about a nu:lle : distant ,in a northern direction, with remains of military stations, which would imply that a battle .was fought somewhere in the neighbourbood,.and this stone .erected to the me mory olzonte diStinguisited hero,, who fell on the occasion, Or to record the victors'. . One of these barrows has .been opened, but notlting was found iu it ,f a curious nature, except a large triangular stone at the bottom, under which lay a black sub stance or mould resembling wood ashes. We should feel exceeding obliged, and so also would our local readers, by the result of any visit made to the spot, with the view .ot 'gaining further in formation. A few 'weeks since a very ancient hammer,' much. cotToded with rust, was foußd.#ttlke itmer most part of a cavern or excavation'„ app a re n tly natural, discovered in Sandy-cove, beneath the Eastern Hue. The spot has been much visited by the curious, who report that a Stone thrown down an aperture within may be heard to rebound front rock'to rock, for nearly a minute, and limn audibly fall into water. 'There can be little doubt front various marine appearances considerably higher than the highest water mink, that the se a has subsided to some depth along this tract of coast ; and possibly this water is the remain of the titles which once .11oWed much above the •place where they now do, and sunk through some open ing into their present subtet t•anear' abyss, its no connexion between the'cilve and the sea presents itself. A ‘vinding path from the 'c'ave, which branches out in different directions, leads'to the grass above, from v.ltich, and the discovery of the hantn►er, some have been . indneed to suppose that, in•fortner times, it was inhabited.
