For every mile that we leavs the surface
OF our earth, the temperature falls degrees
At as miles distance from the globe we get
beyond the atmosphere, and enter, strictly
speaking, into the regions of space, whose
temperature is 225 degrees below zero; and
here cold reigns in all its power. Some idea
of this intense power may be formed by Sta
ting that The greatest cold observed from the
Arctic Circle is from 30 10 so degrees below
zero; and here many surprising effects are
produced. In the chemical laboratory, the
greatest cold that we can produce is about l SO
degrees below zero. Al this temperature,
carbonic gas becomes solid substance like
snow. If touched, it produces just the same
effect on the skin as red hot cinder; blis.
tering The flesh like burn. Quicksilver o.
mercury freezes at 30 degrees below zero |;
that is, 72 degrees below The temperature a,
which water freezes. The sold mercury
may then be treated as other metals, ham
nefed into sheets, or made into spoons; such
spoons would, however, melt in wafer as
warm as ice. II is pretty certain that every
liquid and gas that we are acquainted with
would become solid if ifexposed to The cold of
the regions of space. The gas we light our
streets with would appear like wax, oil
would be ~ reality "as hard as rock" pure
Split, which we have never yet IsoIidifisd,
would appeaflike block OF transparent erys-
tai, hydrogen gas would become quite solid,
aud resemble metal; we should be able 10
turn butter In a lathe like piece of ivory;
and the fragrant odots Of flowers would have
10 be made hot before they would yield pet
fume. These are few OF The astonishing
effects OF cold. r ssaf bG1i iass.-.s f
