The improved mode Of manufacturing gun
powder invented by Mr.. Drayton, consists in.
dissolving the saltpetre used in its manufacture,
and combining the solution with the charcoal
and sulphur, and then grinding the mixed in
gradients under the mill, in place Of grinding
undissoved saltpetre with other ingredients.
For this purpose, the saltpetre having been dis
solved by heat in as little water as may be, the
charcoal and sui phur in pulverised state are
and intimately mixed herewith.
The mixed materials are then ground under
the mill, until the combination of them has be-
come sufficiently intimate, and the manufac-
ture is then completed in the ordinary manner.
The saltpetre is dissolved in about half of its
weight of water, and the temperature of the So
luton raised to the boiling point, but the in
ventor does not confne himself to this particu-
lar temperature or proportion of water. 1t is
preferred to employ saltpetre that has not been
melted, but only purified and crystalized.

The degradation of names is one of the char
acterlstlcs of the times. Formerly, college
and professor used to mean something, but
now an ordinary private school is called ''col-
lege," and every dancing master a '4profes-
sor." But in this lowest deep there is still a
lower deep-there is a drinking saloon on Wal
nut street. Cincinnati, called sMesseck's S Col
lege." We think bottom is touched at last.
