SECOND EDITION. Standard Office, Three o' Clock. LIVERPOOL MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9. We had a fair supply of new Irish Wheat at our market to-day, the•quality of the greater part being very indifferent; the millers and dealers purchased sparingly, at a reduction of 3d. to 4d. per 701bs. on last week's prices ; for old Foreign there was a moderate sale, at Id. to 2d. per 701bs. reduction. New Flour sold at a decline of Is. per 2801b5., the quality of most of it is good, and averages in price from 50s. to 555. There was little demand for Oats ; and Oatmeal was pur chased at 6d. per 2401b5, under last week's prices.—lrish Barley sold at 4s. 6d. per 601bs. The week's supply of Irish Butter is 11,5.92 firkins. 'We have a limited demand, at our presenkprices: the consumers, anticipating a reduction, purchase sparingly.

Mr. O'Connell has published a fourth piece of blus tering absurdity, of which only one passage seems iroitby of notice. All the rest is stale treason and hackneyed ribaldry ; but this ought to be read, for two reasons, which we shall subsequently give. Mr. O'Connell says— 1 cannot but smile at the discovery which some enemies of mine and yours have made—of an inconsistency in my sentiments respecting the Ministry. Just as if the nature of the facts did not create that inconsistency. For their conduct in Ireland since Lord Normanby became Lord- Lieutenant, they have *sack of say commendation; but in some instances their conduct in England has justly called forth my censure. Notwithstanding that censure, they have my sup port as-a Member of Parliament—that is, 1 attend and vote with them whenever they are right; when they are wrong they neither receive nor do they require my support; in that case they are quite certain of being supported by the Tories. In sheet, the single secret of the support I give the Ministry is just this—that the only choice lies between them and the Tories. If my opposing the Ministry gave me the least chance of a better Aaminithation, 1 would oppose them at once; but as their receding Crum office must inevitably be followed by the accession of the Tory Cabinet, my choice is made. I prefer the Whigs ( though far from being so good as I could wish) to the Tories. whose principles and conduct, hateful everywhere, would exhibit itself in Satanic cruelty in Ireland. In a word—l prefer the Whigs to keep out the Tories. Not one honest Irishman in his senses can hesitate to make the same choice, when he has no other alternative than " Whigs or Tories." In Ireland the Tories would of course renew all the atrocity of the Orange ,ystein : they would necessarily drive the country to the very verge of rebellion, and the greatest exertions would be required to prevent (were prevention possible) the country from being deluged with human blood. My determination is to preserve Ireland from that catastrophe by all the means in my power; and one of the means of so preserving Ireland is to keep the Whigs in office and the Tories out as long as we can. Now, really this is too ridiculous—too laughable— to be treated seriously; nor should we notice it, but for the reasons we have promised. Our first reason for noticing it is to exhibit, upon Mr. O'Connell's own showing, how completely the destinies of Protestant England are regulated by an insignificant knot of Papists ; to whose care the go vernment of our young Queen (who has solemnly sworn before her people to maintain their Protestant religion) is avowedly confided ; and our second reason is because the Tories, who, if in power, would exhibit their hateful principles and conduct in Satanic cruelty in Ireland, were the party who gave Mr. O'Connell the power of which he now brags ; the same Mr. O'Connell having declared, before a committee of the House of Commons, his entire and sincere conviction that the Papists, if admitted to Parliament, would never interfere, or use their consequent influence, in agitating or unsettling the established order of things. This Mr. O'Connell predicted; and to this he and his friends subpequently swore. These were his" Precursory Proceedings" previous to the fatal emancipation. STATE OF TRADE. Lisps, TUESDAY.—There has been a comparatively slack week, few goods, either finished or otherwise, having changed hands. Should the next arrivals from America bring no considerable orders, it is thought that the winter will not be of over so satisfactorily as many ant i c i p ated a month a g o. The stillness which exists seems also to have operated on the wool market, in which department little is doing, and no one buys but for immediate use. HUDDERSFIELD, TUEsDA T.—The trade in the hall has not been much better to-day than last Tuesday. What is want * seems to be the usual American orders, which at the pre test moment are very scarce. Those engaged in the fancy Ike are expecting a good business. BRADFORD, TtlxsoAv.--Foreign orders arriving but slowly, and many purchases having already been made for the win ter, caused less business to be done to-day in our piece mar ket. Some attempts were made to buy common goods on easier terms, but, we think, in no case did it succeed: the high price of yarns seems likely to prevent it. The demand for particular sorts of figured goods has in some measure abated, and such articles are easier to buy. Cloths for printing, of very fine qualities, are, if anything, rather lower. Yarns.—There is a continued good demand for yarns at full prices. Wools.—There is no variation in the value of wools, and the demand has become steady. Combing wools, (long) are in demand. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET. —Although there has not been quite so much doing this week, owing to rather exten sive sales baying been made during the last three weeks, still prices are firm, especially for long wool. Short wool is also in demand at full prices. INDIGO SA Ls.—The quarterly sale progresses very steadily and the attendance is good. Most of what is put sells, and prices are 3s. Bd. to 6s. 6d. for general runs, and 7 s . 4d. for fine shippers. These are as near last sale's prices as need be Up to the time we left the room, about 1600 chests on the whole sale had passed the harumer.—London Price Cur rent, October 4. Latettsrsa.—The demand for goods is considered flat for the season of the year. The wool market is firm, but there is rather less doing. The de m and ru n s still upon the finer kinds of combing sorts. The stock of combing wether skin is not large, and it sells freely at a small advance of price.— Leicester Chronicle. THZ ADVANTAGE OF BEING 'TALL, --A young Scotehman, who the other day was a private in the 92d regiment now sta tioned at this island, being so remarkably tall that he was unable to stand upright in a sentry-box, was in consequence promoted to the rank of corporal.—Malta Paper. A GENUINE YANKEE POTATO !—We learn from the Clare mont Eagle tbat Mr. Ellis, of West Claremont, has a potato patch of 30 feet square, the vines of which are one mile in length, the produce of one single potato, which he had planted in the middle of May last!

It will be built and endowed by public subscrip tion, and will form a great ornament to that part of the town. Another church, endowed and erected by similar means, will be shortly commenced at the other extremity of the town. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. MANCHESTER, FRIDAY EVENING. Since the Heaton Park Races, the leading turf business has been on the Mostyn Stakes, which has usually been made a booking race; but it does not appear, this year, likely to draw. The knowledge that the celebrated horse Harkaway will "absolutely" (?) show appears to be a drawback on spe culation: he has risen from 5 to 2 taken to a score and smaller sums, to even betting; nay, in some instances yes terday, sto 4 was laid on him versus the field. He was coupled, since Heaton Park Races, with Albemarle; the taker ac cepting 200 to 100. Mr. Ferguson's horse runs first, and the marquis's horse second. This may be so; but, by a reference to the columns of Weatherby, it does not always appear that the greatest general of the age carries off this trying mile race. Since the year 1830, it will be found that the winners of the Doncaster St. Leger have been signally defeated twice, namely, Touchstone and Birmingham. The latter, in 1830, with the odds of 4 to 1 on him, and only 20 to 1 against Old Port. Usury very unexpectedly conquered Touchstone; and Jack Faucett, in 1833. showed ° the Chancellor, Birdlime, &c. how to defeat the cognoscenti. The prices, after rallying strongly in favour of one, may be set down as follows: THE MOSTYN STAKES.—P.P. Entered or not. 6 to 5 on Harkaway (t ;) 5 to I against Albemarle (take 5i ;) 6 to 1 against any other. THE DERBY, 10 to 1 on the field ; take 15 on Gulnare ; 20 on brother to Plenipo ; and 200 to 7 on Fitzambo (t freely.) THE DONCASTER ST. LEGER. Fitzambo backed at 200 to 7. LALANDE.-At a great dinner given by many of the first rank, Lalande was placed between Mme. de Stael and Mine. Recamier. " How lucky I am," said he; " here am I seated between wit and beauty. "And without possessing either the one or the other," observed Mme. de Stael. PROLIFIC CROP.—A few days ago Mr. William Dagger, of the Railway Hotel, Breck, Poulton-le-Fylde, dug up one perch of land, (71 yards to the perch) which was planted with a kind of potatoes called " Kemps," the produce of which when weighed was 4601b5., being at the rate of up wards of 300 windles per acre.—Preston Gazette. We hear, from what we consider well-informed authority, that Sir John Cam Hobhouse will, in a very short time, be elevated to the peerage. Mr. Spring Rice, we are also in formed, is to be colonial secretary, vice Lord Glenelg, who is to retire from office; and Mr. Baring is to succeed M r Rice as Chancellor of the Exchequer.—Nottingham Journal. The following is the answer returned by Marshal Lobau to the address from the Birmingham Union to the National Guard of Paris, on its reported petition for an electoral re form!—" Gentlemen,—l have received the address you have done me the honour to send.

LIVERPOOL MECHANICS' INSTITUTION LECTURES ON CHEMISTRY APPLIED TO THE ARTS, On Wednesday evening Dr. Kane delivered the third of his important lectures, in which he explained the processes employed in the manufacture of copper and iron. The metallic bodies, said the lecturer, are of the highest interest to us, as they constitute in connexion with the ue%N metallic substances the great proportion of the solid portion of the globe. Indeed we have stated that oxygen constitutes one-third of the solid material of the earth. The roasting of ores, the extraction of the different metals, and all their ap plications to the arts and manufactures, we shall find to be within the province of chemistry as connected with the me tallic bodies. Oxygen and sulphur may be looked upon as the great mineralizing agents, which bind the metals together. In order to get to the metals it is necessary to free the ores containing them from the oxygen and sulphur with which may - ue - vomutcrecf lllereiuce we ace 1A.., two v. xivac pi cesses of the smelting of ores are but particular cases of the grand laws of chemical attraction, which it is our business this evening to discuss. You will, therefore, perceive that the laws which I shall bring before you are of the most im portant nature in the chemical arts. The metals which I shall bring before you this evening are of the most deep importance; namely, Iron on the one hand, and Copper on the other. iron, after oxygen, is the most important substance which is met with in the globe. Oxy gen we have seen is absolutely necessary to the existence of animated beings. But if on the other hand we look at the advancement and progress of civilization over the globe, we shall find that this is owing to the discovery of iron, and the perfection to which we have brought the manufacture of the instruments which are now made of it, therefore we may look upon all the improvements of the present age as in some measure arising out of the great use made of this valuable substance. Whilst, therefore, oxygen is the great substance which secures the_ existence of man upon the globe, iron is the great substance which secures his civilization. The great ores of iron are two in number. We have, indeed, one which constitutes the beautiful haematite of our mines, which is a pure oxide of iron. This ore, however, is so rare that it cannot be looked upon to any considerable extent as the source from which iron is derived. We are obliged to have recourse to ores of a much less pure nature, but which are found in nature in large quantities. These ores may be re duced to two vast types, namely, the clay, or Welsh ores, and the celebrated black band which gives so much interest to the neighbourhood of Glasgow. I shall have to bring be fore you on Saturday evening the composition of the differ ent clays. Clay is of a very peculiar nature, consisting of two substances, neither of which we shall study to-night; the one clay, and the other silica. Pure porcelain clay is a simple combination of silica and alumina. But this fine clay is exceedingly rare, so much so that a mine of it is very va luable. Alumina and the red oxide of iron are united to each other chemically in a peculiar manner. They are said to be isomorphous, that is to say, the oxide of iron and the alumina can replace each other,—there is no combination which one can form which the other cannot, so that we have clays con tainiog silica and oxide of iron, mixed in very indefinite properties, the consequence of which is that the por celain clays are generally coloured. This results from the pure clay or alumina being mixed with the clay of iron. In the clay iron the great mass is the silicate of iron, and the porcelain clay trust be looked upon as in juring the quality of the ore. This will chew you the true formation of the clays, from the pure porcelain clay to the iron -stones, which may be looked upon literally as the foundation stone of the prosperity of this coun try. We may easily dislodge the oxygen from iron stone, by presenting to it any body having a greater affinity for it than the iron, in the same manner as we separate the oxygen from water by means of zinc. This substance with respect to iron is carbon (coke, &c.), which has an affinity for oxygen exceeding that of all known substances. Thus, ' if we heat any substance containing oxygen with carbon, the carbon will take the oxygen from the substance, and we shall have the substance in a pure state. With respect to iron, the carbon unites with the oxygen, and escapes in a gaseous form, whilst the iron is set free. Where we meet with the haematite, we at once mix carbon with it, and it is quickly transmuted into the first quality of iron, fit for the best steel. But this is rarely the case, as we generally find the iron united with a quantity of silica, which is combined with it with so great au affinity, that the carbon has no power over the oxygen. In order to provide for this difficulty, at the same time that the iron-stone is broken up, it is mixed with a considerable quantity of lime-stone, which, when heated, produces quick-lime. Now lime is likewise a base like the oxide of iron and alumina, and more powerful than either. In the iron-stone the silica is united with the oxide of iron, and cannot be decomposed simply by carbon or beat. But the addition of the lime causes the silica to separate from the oxide of iron and unite with itself, whilst the oxygen of the iron unites with the carbon. Thus we see that to chemical research quantity becomes a matter of absolute indifference, for whatever science predicts, even with respect to a quarter of a grain, enables us to operate upon thousands of toes, without any hesitation or delay, and to bring to bear upon the greatest and most refractory substances the results of experiments in the laboratory. The oxide of iron being thus separated from its combination with the silica, finds itself in contact with the charcoal at the high temperature. It is left entirely to itself, being deprived of the powerful support of the silica, and is decomposed ; the oxygen and the carbon form carbonic acid gas, and the iron melts down and finally collects at the bottom of the furnace in a hollow left there to receive it ; and when the mass is properly melted, it is run out by means of apertures for that purpose. When iron is thus obtained, it is not pure, but mixed with carbon, and assumes the form of the article known under the name of cast-iron, or pig-iron, which is only a carburet of iron. This carburet of iron possesses, properties of great importance, totally different from those of the metal in a state of purity. Cast iron is termed pig iron in consequence of the manner in which it is poured out. On an horizontal surface before the furnace, a long, hollow trench is made, from which a number of lateral branches extend. The grand central trough is called the sow, and the smaller ones the pigs. It may in some measure be likened to the human spine and its ribs. Cast iron possesses several degrees of value, arising from the quality of the ore front which it has been obtained, and the treatment it has received. Its composition is exceedingly varied. In addition to carbon it contains various amounts of sulphur, phospho rus, and silica. The great characteristic of the pig is its fusibility. It fuses below a white heat, and the conse quence is that as the temperature at which it fuses is easily at our command, we are enabled to run it into moulds and apply it to the thousand purposes for which we see it used. Were it not for this great fusibility, the metal would be de prived of its great utility, for the true metal is destitute of this quality. Cast iron has a crystalline appearance when broken, so that experienced iron masters can recognise the locality of the iron and its manufacture front the appearance of the grain. A very important alteration has been recently made in the process of smelting. It is well known that in operating with the ordinary blow-pipe, it is very much in creased in power by the current of air being: urged to a con siderable extent through the flame. This was not attended to until within a few years ago, when a patent was taken out for substituting a current of hot air for the current of cold air with which smelting furnaces had been supplied. The way in which it is accomplished in the Scottish works, the only one which has been personally inspected by the lecturer tvas by forcing a blast of air through a series of iron pipes heated in furnaces until it was raised to the temperature of 700 deg. Fahrenheit, a degree sufficient to melt lead, at which it was passed into the furnace containing the iron ore, coke and limestone. The use of this hot air is somewhat complicated. It is very difficult, indeed at present impossible, to reduce the amount of benefit derived from it to absolute numbers,—that is, that if the air is raised to such a temperature before enter ing the furnace, there will be such a saving of fuel. But this is certain, that by the use of hot air one-third of the fuel will be save& This is what may be done according to the somewhat - the evidence which h as a s y e t b een o btained upon the subject. If a certain quantity of cold air be urged upon a furnace the heat will be increased, but if the current be increased in force, the furnace may be put out. This can easily be proved by means of a candle and blow-pipe. By this means we see that the entrance of cold air into a furnace tends to cool it, therefore the ore would be subject to two forces, the one that of the fuel around it tending to beat it, and to the entrance of cold air tending to cool it, so that when the air is made hot we have a saving of fuel to the amount of otle-third. Considering the matter in a scientific point of view, we have yet to get good data so as to enable us to state the exact amount of advantage attending the hot blast. The pig iron is characterised by the quantity of carbon it contains. This carbon which is difficult to be expelled is got rid of by a very curious process. Iron having a great affinity for oxygen is a combustil.ile body: If it be lammed under proper cir ctunstances, it becomes one of the most combustible sub stances with which chemists are acquainted. We saw that iron would burn when exposed to the flame of an oxy hydrogen blow-pipe, but even this is not necessary, for if we keep up a sufficient temperature the iron will burn itself. Not only is iron combustible in oxygen gas, but if we take it in a state of fine division, as in filings, and drop it into the flame of a spirit lamp; it will burn like gunpowder. In fact, the reason why iron does not burn under all circumstances is simply because it is a good conductor of heat. If you bold a candle to the corner of a piece of iron it will not take fire because the iron being so good a conductor of heat carriesthe heat away before it has time to burn it, but in public build ings which have been on fire where wood work has surrounded the iron pillars, they have taken fire and burned with as much brilliancy as any combustibles which have been in the buildings. During the fire in the Dublin Custom-house the pillars burnt like palm trees, the tops of the pillars emitting showers of sparks which radiated in every direction like the the leaves of a palm tree. In fact, the iron burned more brilliantly than any other combustible. Charcoal is even more combustible than iron, the consequence is, that if we heat cast iron beyond its melting point, weshall find that the carbon burns out inure rapidly than the iron. Now this gives rise to the operation which is called puddling, which in the iron works is the most frightful process to an inexperi enced individual that can be imagined. The cast iron in a molten state, is stirred round sb that it may be exposed to the action of the air. A pale bluish•flame will be seen over the surface, indicative of the burning out of the carbon, which uniting with the oxygen of the air, flies off in the form of carbonic acid. In proportion as the carbon is expelled, the iron thickens, and by degrees is converted into a sub- stance like dough ; the workman then works up a portion as he would a piece of dough, takes it up with his shovel, and places it under a press, y which the liquid cast iron is squeezed out, as the whey is separated front the curds in the process of cheese making, the pig iron remaining as liquid as water, while the pure iron has assumed a solid consistency. In short, pure iron must be looked upon as being after pla tinum the most infusible substance in nature. Pure iron possesses a quality which enables us to work it with great facility. Ice remains perfectly solid until it is melted into water, copper remains solid until it melts, and so does cast iron, but iron is different: at the moment of incipient white heat it gets soft, and at a white heat we can unite two pieces by beating them together, so that we cannot tell where the two pieces bad been joined. Now this power, which is called that of treleliny, gives us the power of manu facturing wrought iron without reference to the principle of fusibility. There is another property of the malleable iron, that, although it is in reality an aggregate of crystalline particles, these particles have a great tenacity—whereas cast iron has no tenacity. Cast iron may be easily broken into two by the blow of a hammer, whereas malleable iron will not break. Therefore, cast iron will do for supporting heavy weights, but it cannot be employed where the pressure acts transversely. It supports pressure to a certain extent, but at that it gives way at once and breaks short. It is different with soft iron: when you attempt to break a piece of that iron it does not break short like cast iron, but will rather spread out and give a fibrous appearance to the iron—a fibrous appearance which does not exist, as can be shown where such iron is suddenly broken, without time being allowed it to assume a fibrous appearance. There has been a very remarkable improvement recently introduced into the manufacture of wrought iron, which to a considerable ex tent has superseded the practice of puddling, to which I ad verted. You will remember that I stated that the oxide of iron was decomposed by carbon. A patent has been taken out to supersede the old tedious and very disagreeable process of puddling by manual labour. It consists of this: that at the moment when the cast iron is completely fused, a quan tity of the oxide of iron in the state of fine powder is thrown in, which being decomposed at the expense of the carbon of the cast iron, thus causes the conversion of both the oxide and the carburet into pure iron, without any necessity of re sorting to the tedious process of puddling. I shall not enter upon the'exact nature of steel ; indeed, it is an exceedingly difficult subject. It is a carbonaceous com pound : but the quantity of carbon is so small, that it is difficult to say with what quantity it is com b ined. Steel is intermediate between cast iron and wrought iron : for as cast iron contains from 1-50th to 1-10th of its weight of carbon, s t ee l w ill no t contain more than 1-1000th of its weight of carbon. S tee l i s made by uniting a certain quantity of carbon with iron, by a process of cementation, the theory of which is not well un derstood. I might tell a variety of tales about the mode in which these substances are united : but as there is no real data upon which to come to any sound conclusion, it will be as well not to mention them. Having spoken so much upon the mode of obtaining the iron in the state in which it is used in the arts, I shall now proceed to bring before you one or two of the properties of the metal in a purely chemical shape. By union with other substances, it gives rise to a variety of agents, useful in the arts. With sulphur it forms copperas, which is used in the manufacture of ink, and a variety of other uses. We have an ore, called the bi-sulphuret of iron, which is used in the preparation of copperas. When this mineral is moistened and exposed to the air, it absorbs oxygen, by which means it becomes copperas. This is then washed and. evaporated, and we get beautiful crystals of sulphate of iron; but when they are exposed to the air for some time, they absorb more oxy gen, and become converted into the per-oxide. Iron in com bination is capable of producing colours. The best recog nized of all substances, are those which give rise to a great valuabt ie substances in the arts, are those which the chemist uses every day as tests for the metals. In the arts, the for mation of prussian blue is effected by means of a preparation of iron. Thus, if we take a salt of iron, so as to form a co lourless solution, and add to it another solution which is like wise colourless, viz. prussiale of potash, we have a copious pre cipitate of prussian blue. Thus we detect the presence of iron in nature in the same manner as we produce prussian blue in the arts. The principle is likewise applied to the purpose of printing calicoes; &c. Ordinary ink is made by' means of iron, and the formation of ink constitutes one of our most effectual tests for iron. If you have a mineral spring which yon suspect to contain a certain quantity of iron, it will be easily known by adding to the mineral water a few di ops of an infu;ion of nut galls or oak bark. Every body knows, that to make ink the way is to take an infusion of nut galls and copperas, and add them together. Other articles are added, according to fancy, to prevent the ink from becoming mouldy. The nut galls possess a substance called tannin, which has the property of combining with iron. It is called tannin from the circumstance of its being the active principle in the tan ning of leather. This substance is an acid, and thus pos sesses the means of uniting with the iron, which it turns black;—in fact, ink is the tannate of iron. Ink, although very good for writing, is not a good dye, as it does not fasten well. I mentioned a moment ago that although iron was combos- _ tible, yet charcoal was more combustible. Now thiS is an experiment which is calculated to prove it. I have here a little piece of charcoal, which, by immersion in an ignited state in oxygen gas, upon an iron spoon, will burn rapidly, without causing the burning of the iron. The principle of reducing the ore of copper is so similar to that for the reduction of the ores of iron, that it is only re quisite to glance at it. The sulphuret of copper, in which state the ore is raised, is introduced into a furnace and roasted. By this roasting the great mass of the sulphur is is given off, but the ore remains after the roasting, united to a certain quantity of sulphuric acid. There is one consider ation in the reduction of the ores of copper which renders it more complex than the processes for the reduction of the ores of iron. The sulphate of copper contains very little acid, but still it does contain acid. We have an oxide of copper on one hand, and we have sulphuric acid on the other. At ordinary temperatures sulphuric is the strongest acid we have, but it is expelled at a high temperature by silica, there fore silica is heated with it until the mass arrives at very high temperatures, and the result is that the silica unites with the oxide of copper, and the sulphuric acid is driven off. During the smelting of the copper there is a quantity of white vapour going off, which renders the neighbourhood of copper works somewhat disagreeable. We thus, you ob serve, have obtained at this stage of the reduction of the cooper the same reduction of the ore as that which exists in iron in nature. We then have to introduce a quantity of lime, with which the silica unites, and oxide of copper is set free. Carbon being then introduced unites with the oxygen of the copper, and we obtain the copper in a pure state. To get it in a pure state we have thus to pass it through five operations. Copper presents the most beautiful instance of a compound substance. Indeed, 1 do not know in my che mical experience of a more beautiful system of chemical combination than that which the reduction of copper pre sents to our notice. The appearance which copper presents is perfectly familiar. Owing to the kindness of Mr. Jones I have a quantity of copper in its rough state, in which it is got in the arts. It is run into pig copper; for there are in the manufactures pig copper as well as pig iron, with this distinction, that pig copper is pure, whereas pig iron is not. In order to cast copper, a mould divided into two parts is made in sand, and as copper fuses at a red heat, it is very available for the purposes of manufacturers. When a large number of articles are to be cast, a considerable number of them can be manufactured at the same time, by means of a number of moulds. Like iron, the copper has a powerful affinity for sulphur. Here is a flask, which contains a quan tity of copper filings mixed with sulphur, the affinity of which for each other is so strong, that the copper unites with the sulphur at the point at which copper melts. As soon as in candescence has set in, it proceeds rapidly through the whole of the mass. Copper has a powerful affinity for oxygen, In order to show this, it is only requisite to take a little nitric acid, and to pour it upon a little copper, when we find that part of the nitric acid, the oxygen, and the copper, rapidly combine. If I take a solution of copper, which is in general known by its blue colour, and add to it a solution containing potash, 1 have a beautiful azure blue, which is not, however, permanent: but there is a means of getting it, under the name of refiners' verditer, which is very useful in the arts : it is, however, then combined with an oxide. The heat which i s evolved by the contact of nitric acid and copper, is shewn by placing phosphorus in connection with the vessel in which the combination is effected, when it will instantly inflame. If we take some of the solution of copper, and add to it a small quantity of ammonia, we obtain, in the first place, a fine pale blue precipitate; but the action of ammonia is extremely singular, as, upon adding seine more of it, the precipitate immediately disappears, and the liquor will assume a most beautiful violet colour. Now, this colour constitutes the finest test for copper, and as copper is liable to enter into food from the kitchen utensils being lined with copper, and it frequently happens that fatty substances, as soups, being suffered to lie in the copper, dissolve a quantity of it, so as to render them poisonous. Many of these green substances are used by cooks to act as embellishments in their operations, and in less enlightened ages, it was not uncommon to see directions, in cookery books, for the addition of a few half pence to preparations, fur this purpose. The addition of a lit tle ammonia will detect the minutest quantity of copper. If a little pi ussiate of potash be added to a solution of copper, we shall have a very fine chocolate colour: This is prussiate of copper, and it is not unfrequently used in painting, as it is a very fine colour indeed. There are a number of alloys of copper with other metals. Thus we have zipc, which, if united with copper in various proportions, gives the hard solder which is used in soldering, the mosaic gold, pinchbeck, and brass. All of these yellow coloured alloys are made of different proportions of copper and zinc. When tin enters into combination with-copper, it gives what is called bell metals, and the different bell me tals differ from each other only in the proportions in which these substances are united. Copper, iris's, and zint are characterized by their affinity for oxygen; but of these me tals copper has the least affinity- for it. If copper be exposed to the action of water and air it will corrode. It is well known that Sir Humpliry Davy proposed to' protect the copper sheathing of vessels by connecting plates of iron and zinc with it, a method based upon the beautiful chemical law which he himself discovered, that when two metals are placed together, the one most easily oxidyzed is corroded, whilst the other escapes. This plan was found not to answer; for although the copper was beautifully bright and polished, yet it was covered with sea animals which used to be poisoned by tire dirty copper, so that the sailing of the vessel was thereby impeded. In thissnanner it was found more advantageous to use the copper by itself. It has recently been proposed to pro tect iron by means of zinc, w hich is more readily oxydized. It was observed that the bolts of the buoys in the harbour of Dublin were corroded in a very short time, and by theadvice of my colleague, Professor D'avy, who at once inherits the name and reputation of his illustrious relative, they were placed in contact with plates of zinc, and it was found that the plan which failed in practice when applied to the protection of copper sheathing was quite effectual when applied to the protection of iron. Not only was this useful, but the application of it led to the formation of galvanized or zincified iron under the r o y a l sea l . Zi nc will preserve iron, and iron will preserve copper; but the preservation takes place by the destruction being transferred to the more oxydizable metal. Thus for every portion of iron which may be saved, there will be a portion of zinc eaten away—for every pound of iron saved a pound of zinc will be lost, so that it is a question which everybody should ask, whether it is simply the pound of iron which they would wish to save, or something further. In the case of the buoys, the loss of the zinc was of no consequence, as the object was the preservation of the buoys ; but an idea has gone abroad, that iron may be preserved by the action of zinc, and that neither the iron nor the zinc will suffer any injury. This is not cor rect ; and, therefore, as the price of zinc is greater than that of iron, the purposes of eeonomy would not be answered by its employment. This lecture was illustrated by a number of appropriate and successful experiments. In Dr. Kane's next lecture, to•morrow evening, he will treat upon organic sub s t ance, an d their products by istillation. POACHING EXTRAORDINARY. — Last week no less than four couple of the Hampshire hounds were caught in wires set to catch game in Crabwood, near Winchester.

Near the nest was a quantity of live frogs, each with one of its legs broken, fur the purpose, as it appears, of preventing it from escaping, a method that these sagacious animals adopt to preserve food always fresh for their young. - - - SATISFACTION.—On Monday evening a duel took place in Windsor Great Park, between Lieut.-Colonel O'Neil, at tended by Major Jones, and Champion, Esq., attended by Captain Green. On the first fire the ball of Col. O'Neil's pistol passed through the right arm of his adversary, and the ball of Mr. Champion grazed the collar of Col. O'Neale's coat. The seconds then interfered, and the parties left the ground quite satisfied. DoNtiNos.—A grand match of dominos is now going on at Paris, between two well-known amateurs, for the high stakes of 45,000 fr. The match, fixed for ten sittings, has been divided into sixty games, each game being for the stake of 500 fr. to 250 fr. ' with a reversibility of all the sums to the conqueror after the last game. Numerous bets, amounting to more than 200,000 fr., are said to be depending on the issue of the contest. HORTON CONEERVATIVES.—On Tuesday last, the Opera tive ConservativeS of Horton, held their first anniversary, when about 140 persons sat down to an excellent dinner at the house of Mr. John Rudd, the King's Arms Inn ; Mr. C. Ackroyd in the chair. Several animated speeches were de livered, and loyal toasts given, which were responded to with loud applause. The room was beautifully decorated by Mr. Anderson, of Bradford, and the dinner was served up in ex cellent style, and did great credit to Mr. and Mrs. Rudd.— Leeds Intelligencer. A servant girl, in a village in Bucks, very narrowly es• caped being run over, and trampled to death lately, by a four-horse coach. "Get out of the way, Sally," said the coach man to the frightened wench. The girl, who at that moment was close to the horses' heads, instantly stopped, and entirely forgetting her imminent danger, stood still, and looking very angrily at the coachman, hulloed out as !loud as she could, " Sally, indeed ! Pin none of your common stuff; Any name is Amelia Sophia, and I'd thank you to call me by it."
