 JMr Edit0r.-The new rival of Ether, Chlo- reform, is so rapidly gaining favor asa torpori. fic, nc doubt, your readers will like some ac- count of its history aud composition. The most elaborate statement respecting it, is that given in pamphlet, by Dr. J, T. Simpson. of Edinburgh University. His experiments spoa is as an anaesthetic, have been numerous, and careful. The name of the article is Chloroform, or Perchloride of Formyle.. Formyle, is the basis of Formic Acid. a pe- cNliar substance discovered in the red ant, (FUrmica rufa.) There are now, variety of processes for obtaining the same thing by chemical treatment ot Starch, Sugal, and oth. CT vegetable substances.
 Its existence in vegetable matter. produces chloride offormyle, when chlorine is made ts act on the chloride. or oxide of wood-spirit.- Chlsroform may also be artificially produced, frsm substances not originally containing for. myle. After giviAg several methods of its preparation, Dr. s. exhibits that which he em. plOys; viz:
 Chloride of Lime, Alb1 Water, - l2 lbs Rscti6ed Soiri 2, l2 fluid ox
 Mix, and 'cistil, SO loag as dense liquid, which sinks in the water with W whish it comes ever, is producsd.' The result is sperchlorids 'fformyls.' and 'consists of two atoms ot car- 'on. one of hyirogn, and the other Of ci,io-. 'ine.' Its specific gravily.is greater than that f water. 'lt boils at HI s.' It is not in. lamable. 'lt is a dense cslorlsss liqnid 'vAaescent, having an agreeable fruit ike odor. and sweet, pleasant taste' Its an. 'eslhetic effects are wrought quicker, and " inhalation of much smaller quantities, thaa those of ether. There is little or no prslim. mary stage of excitement. rarely auy cough ing, and, in Dr. Simpson's cases, no hsadaehe' nausea. salvation, or uneasin.ss of the chest occurred. There remains no disagrseabls O. dor after the operation.
 A very little of the fluid is dr"psd in hsnd- kerchief or sponge. and inhaled. The effect s produced in a minute oT two.
 The Chloroform was discovered by Sonber. ain. in 1881. and by Lieby in 1892, and was first act urately analyzed by Duwas, French Chemist, In 1895. Its present nss. was un- known till the experiments oi Dr. Simps"n.
