EXPERIMENTS WITH IRoN.-M. Keshner has
recently shown that by the prolonged boiling
OF basic nitrate of iron its condition is
changed, so that e precipitate obtained with
sulphate of soda, and dried in q current of
air upon porcelain is insoluble in concen-
trated acids, but very soluble in water, the
solution being turbid by reflected and clear
by transmitted light. In this state the iron
does not exhibit the customary reactions with
terrocyanides and sulphocysnides. 1t was
also found that light, as we'll as heat is capa-
BILE of producing this allotropic state Of iron
salts. An English chemist has discovered
that it is an inVariable rule with iron which
has remained a considerable time under wa
ter, when reduced to small grains or an i'm
palpable powder, to become red hot; this be
found to be the case by scraping from gun
some corroded metal, which ignited the pa
per containing it and burned hole in his
pocket 1t is found that an increase of nearly
thirty per cent. in weight may be given 10
iron by heating it red hot and passing a con.
tinued stream of steam over it when in that
state. This increase of weight arises from it:
decomposing the water and imbibing its OK
ygen. Whenever iron becomes oxidized by
exposure to the air, it may be known that
this is occasioned by the absorption of OK
ygen, from the increase of weight which the
metal acquires during the operation, and, to
confirm the fact, the oxide may be again re-
duced, and the original quantity Of metal
left unaltered.

DTsCovRR1Es REGARDING LTGHT.-The cele-
brated French photographer and chemist,
M. Niepce de st. Victor, has recently made
some valuable discoveries, regulating what
he calls the persistent activity OF light. He
exposed to the influence of bright sunlight
for three hours q piece Of porcelain plate
then be removed it and laid it upon a piece
of paper which had been prepared with chic
ride of silver. Some parts Of the paper were
Intentionally not laid under the porcelain,
for the purpose of discovering what would
be the difference, If any, between the COW
cred and uncovered parts. After twenty
four hours had elapsed the porcelain was re-
moved and the paper examined, when it was
found that the silver salts were reduced in
that part of the paper which had been placed
duced in the paper which had not been COW
cred. This led him to conclude that solar
light communicated activity to some bodies,
which they retained after exposure to the
suns rays. He then tried experiments with
a steel plate, one part of which was polished,
and another part made rough on the surface
with strong nitric acid, then washed with
alcohol and dried This plate was exposed
10 the suns rays for three hours and then
one-balf the polished part of it, and one half
of the rough part were placed under an
opaque screen, with the other portions under
piece of transparent glass. The plate was
then laid upon albumenized paper prepared
with chloride of silver. After twenty-four
hours contact-the same time as the porce-
lain-an impression of the unpublished por-
tion of the steel plate, acted upon by the
light, was obtained; but none from the pol
ished part, nor from the unpublished portion
which had been placed under the Opaque
acrpen

Knlne Of Human LILO.

But the lesson of defeat would be imper-
fectly learned, did not the army and the
nation alike gain from it juster sense
than they before possessed of the value of
individual life. Never has life been so
much priced and so precious as it has be.
come in America. Never before has each
individual been of so much worth. 1t costs
more to bring up man here, and he is
worth more when brought up, than else
where. The long peace and the extraordin-
ary amount of comfort which the nation has
enjoyed have made us Speaking broadly
fond of life and tender of it. We of the
North have looked with astonishment at the
recklessness of the South concerning it.
We have thought it braver to save than to
spend it; and q questionable humanity has
undoubtedly led us sometimes into feeble
sentimentalities, and false estimates of its
value. We have been in danger of thinking
too much of it, and of being mean-spirited
in its use. But the first sacrifice for which
war calls is life; and we must revise our
estimates of its value, if we would conduct
our war to happy end. To gain that end,
no sacrifice can be too precious or too
costly. The shudder with which we heard
the first report that three thousand of our
men were slain was but the sign of the blow
that our hearts received. But there must
be no shrinking from the prospect of the
death of our soldiers. Better than that we
should fail that million men should die on
the battlefield. 1t is not often that men can
have the privilege to offer their lives for a
principle and when the opportunity comes,
it is only the coward that does not welcome
it with gladness. Life is of no value in
comparison with the spiritual principles
from which it gains its worth, No matter
how many lives it costs to defend or secure
truth, or justice or liberty, truth and justice
and liberty must be defended and secured
Self-preservation must yield to Truths pres
ervation. The little human life is for to-
day-the principle is eternal. TO die for
truth, to die open-eyed and resolutely for
the " good old cause" is not only honor
but reward. Suffering is a gift not given
to every one" said one of the Scotch mar.
tyrs in 1854, "and desire to bless the
ord with my whole heart and soul that He
has counted such poor thing as I an
worthy of the gift of suffering.-AhantiC

THE PAST AND THE PRESENT. - Lorenz
Harte, relic of the Grand Army of the
First Napoleon, now an inmate of the Cook
County Poor-house, had an interview with
Prince Napoleon. County Agent Hanson,
learning the wish of the old soldier kindly
conveyed him to the fremont. The Prince
noticed the absence of three fingers from one
of the soldiers hands.
"Where did you lose your fingers p
"In the retreat from Moscow. l was at
tached to the cavalry, and in one of the
charges of those villainous Cossacks, stroke
from lance deprived me of my fingers.
"But," and the old veterans eye shone with
the old battle.light, 'my saber finished him,
sire"
"This, sire, was done at Lodi" exhibiting
terrible scar upon his left shoulder, made
by grape shot.
"And this" bareing the calf of his left
| leg, showing the mark of a bullet through
| and through it, was done at Arcola."
"This saber cut upon my head was re-
ceived at Austerlitz, and so was this, SIRE
tenderly holding up the Gross of the Legion
of Honor bestowed upon him by Napoleon
for special service upon that bloody field.
When the veteran arose to 60, the Prince
pressed a we'll filled purse into his hand
| and gave him assurance that France had mo-
| forgotten her veterans, and that liberia
| pension should be provided for him.
