traordnary feais of Mons Chabert, about twenty
years since. He plunged his hands into molten

far ahead of the savans of the day, who could not
understand how he was enabled TO perform his ex-
traordnary feats They are just beginning to find
out how he did it, and have asceftained that by
covering the skin with sulphurie acid, he was ena-
hled to handle with impunity the dangerous metal.
Thus does juggery anticipate science.
