ZIscINs IRON tx xLEcrR1c1Ty.-M.
Sorel,a civil engineer in Paris, has an
nounced to the Academy of Sciences that
be has succeeded by means eff an electro
chemical apparatus, On the principle of
Daniels constant battery, in SKIING epon
iron a coating of zinc Of various degrees
Of thickness. The iron thus galvanized,
withoutbeing exposed to the FIRE, is entire
Iy prevented from oxidization, and the zinc
adheres better to the iron than by the meth
cd of coating it in a bath OF melted zinc.
Hehas equally succeaded by an analogous
process in obtaining coatings of all the
other metals in different degrees of thick
ness, either on iaon or on any other 1nctalie
or metalMed substance.
