had gone to the railway station they hastened there,
and found the daughter alone in the refreshment
room, her husband having gone to see after the lug-
gage. Mr. G—, who was greatly irritated, made his
daughter get into a carriage, and drove off with her
towards Sr. Pierre lez Calaie. Just after the husband
arrived, and learned that his wife had been carried
off. He hastened to St. Pierre, but no one was there ;
he took the railway to Lille—his bride was not
there; and thee, his heart full of despair, he
visited in succession Dunkirk, Hazebrouck, and all
the towns on the coast, but in vain. At length he
returned to Lille, and waited on M. Gazelle, Inspector-
General of police. He proved to him that he was duly
married, and that consequently his wife belonged to
him in spite of all the fathers in the world. He
accordingly demanded and obtained an order from
the Inspector• General, to nil commissaires or agents
of the police, :and to assist him in finding out the
place in which his wife was secreted. But where had
the inflexible father-in-law carried his daughter ?
Mr. W— knew not, and was about to leave at
hazard to seek after her, when an anonymous letter
was brought to him stating that the young lady had
been brought to Lille by her father and brother,
and that the three were about to leave the
station at Fives. To Fives Mr. W— immediately
hastened, accompanied by some police agents.
Presently, Mr. G—, Mr. G—, junior, and the
young lady arrived. Mr. W— took possession of
his wife, and she threw her arms round his neck. The
father and the sou swore many Goddems, but Mr.
W— carried off his wife in triumph. Since then
we hear that Mr. G—, convinced of the reality of
the rights of Mr. W— to the person of his daughter,
has resolved not to resist the fait accompli, and has
even promised to be the godfather of his first grandson."

CONCENTRATED SEA WATER.
It is well known that M. Moride, of Nantes, has
sent to the Academy some concentrated sea water, and
a memoir on its preparation. M. Jolly has read the
following report on this communication :—" The ob-
ject of the work sent by M. Moride is to compose sea
baths by means of the sea water itself, by concen-
trating it, and collecting its mineral and or-
ganic principles in such a manner as to be able
to keep and transport them to any distance that
may be wished, with as much certainty of their
composition as confidence in their therapeutical pro-
perties. The extract of sea water thus obtained by
means of concentration and evaporation, would serve
far the composition of an artificial sea-water bath by
merely mixing it with simple water in certain propor-
tions or to a suitable degree of saturation, such as 5
kilogrammes of concentrated sea water to 160 litres of
river water. One of the members of the commission
hes analysed the products sent to the Academy by
M. lloride, which consist of—let, a saline residue of
a poet coneistence and greyish colour ; 2d, an amber
liquid produced from the salt pits. He devoted
himself to the search of the principal elements, the
really active elements, to which sea water owes its
therapeutical properties. It results from this exami-
nation that the product of the sea water taken at
Croisic and concentrated by the processes of the
author to the degree wished for, a long journey, and
its mixture in simple water, represent in e 3 exact
and identical a manner as possible the sea water from
whence it was derived. Taus, apart from the presence

sequently,. that there is reason to welcome the idea
of the author both in a scientific and practical point
of view, and they propose to address to him a note of
thanks and encouragement, and to deposit his work
in the archives of the Academy. These conclusions,
after some short observations from M. Cloquet, were
put to the vote and adopted."—Journa" de Chimie
