formed by passing the electric spark
directly through the gas or by making

terror of a tube Containing oxygen
Ozone destroys the color of vegetable
substances and attacks with avidity
metals that simple oxygen will not ac

recent experiments that electrolized by
drogen possesses greater powers of re-
duction, than simple hydrogen. Hith7
erto no useful application of ozone ha] 1
been made to the arts, but we think thd
time is not far distant, when some new
discovery will enable it to be made very
cheap; it will then supply the place oI
chlorine as a bleaching agent.
