Having called on me for my opinion with regard
The use OF CamPhine for tho purposes of artificial u
minaiion, have, after examining The subiec, cIobd
led the following information:
]. NdfHrS u C"mphiHe. Camphine is pro1imate
vegetable principle, discovered some years SINCE by
dumas, oi Paris. II mostly procured from ,pirits of
- 'Peh'.he ana 70 IN Tact "a very pure essence OF
IurpeniIho. IL Is capable of combining with other
substances and IF being separated again from tleu,
without being changed in its qualities IL has there
bre' ike pure Alcohol and Ether, permanent and
distinct nature rs chymcal substance IL Is colo,
less I'mpid' moderately volatile aud combusfble in
4 Is
explosive Camphor differs from Camphine only in
containing oIygene. hence the name of Camphine OF
basis of { amphor "
H. Economical Hseef Camphine for 6e pu,po,e, of
Illumination My opinion in favor Of the use Of Gam
phine Tor lights was fully expressed in my lectures last
winter and see no for changing that onnion
lows. - ~ io
j. I'can DO furnshodn abundance, and a, a mod
crate price. ON
z. IL affords light moro brilliant than any other
substance hitherto proposed for common use
D. IL is safe. IN no way explosive drops no fire from
the wick. and leaves no freupon IT,
q IL IS cleany. leaves grease marks and if spill
CD on clothes or furniture, eVapomles entirely like
Alcohol. ~ INV
D. endures any natural degree Of cold without be-
coming in the least cungealed
o. The lamps once in order. noed no snufIing or
raising OF the wick but merely require to be Rent
clean and TO DO filled as often they burn themselves
empty.
Remark The Camphine by exposure TO tho dir
may; after some months keeping, become a lte de.
eHoraied, and begin TO form a black crust ON the
wick. The article under these circumstances is not
spoiIed but only requires rehabilitation by the manu-
iacturer. TO be rs perfect rs at first.
