Simultaneous Combustion

DIR. Inman has read before the Literary and
Philosophical Society of Liverpool q large and
complete account of what is known of the circum.
stances and causes of spontaneous combustion,
aud also of various experiments made by the au-
thor himself According to a condensed state
ment of his remarks in the Baltimore American,
it appears that DR.. Inman, in testing the influence
of different substances on painters oil, for in
stance in evolving heat and producing spontane.
GUS combustion, found that charcoal had the most
powerful influence; indeed, of this fact painters
are already aware inasmuch as they know that
lamp black and their oil have at once to be ground
or they will ignite even in few minutes.
Next to charcoal stood sponge, then worsted
sawdust, cotton WOOL tow and shavings. The pre-
else measure and time in which these various SUBJ
stances absorb oxygen when mixed with oil, are
noted in tabular form. We were rather sur.
prised to find worsted, animal substa nee which
merely sipges, and does not tend under ordinary
circumstances, to burst into fame when fire is an.
piled, ranking here next to charcoal, and be.
fore cotton wool; but our impression of the great.
err risk of spontaneous combustion from co ton
than from animal wool is nevertheless borne ont
by these experiments; for Dr. Inman remarks in
reference to cotton, though not specially to ami.
NAL wool that in effect, and on account probably
of the relative forms and surfaces and access n
air of the different substances, t'it is far more
difficult to get small quantities of tow to ignite
even under very favorable circumstances than
cotton. wool indeed, we may say that when the
quantities used are small. II is difieu procure

when the quantity used is large, 1t Is only ques

At the stand of the Court House o. E.
Kellog, Esq, of Toledo, B. I. Hunt, Esq,
of Huron CO., Moses Tyler, F. P. Bement of
Detroit, and other Michigan orators, address
ed the assemblage about them in speeches
of animation and eloquence.
[ AT this point of the ceremony the Ban
ner presentation took place. Miss PECK in
behalf of the ladies of Sandusky presented
it with short and appropriate address, it
was received by o. E. Kellogg, in behalf of
Huron county,
Ossian E. Dodge then entertained the
crowd with a song, and the ladies withdrew.
After five the delegations began to re-
turn home. The various trains carried their
thousands to their homes and by seven o.
clock the crowd was measurably smaller.
In the evening the proceedings on the
East Squaie were opened by discharge of
rockets. Mr.. ]. C. Lee, of Tifin, first ad-
dressed the audience, and very acceptably.
He fred some light artillery, shots into the
Old Buck. The only fault of his speech
was that it was too short.
Mr.. Clark, of Detroit, followed Mr.. Lee
in an able speech. After which Ossian E.
Dodge amused the audience wonderfully
with his speech and song. Dodge is in
imitable in his drollery-so all the people
say.
Mr.. Larned was again called out, and hit
things right and left in his most admirable
manner.
B. T. Hunt, Esq, of Huron county, clos
ed the days proceedings by piqusnt and
telling appeal to the Republicans of Ohio;
and then the audience broke up, adjourned
sine de, resolving to do good duty, as Re
publicans, and to give FREMoNr an over
whelming majority this fall.
