The CAxpHoR SroRx. .oLAss.-Dsaler In phil.
osophicsl and optical instruments sell simple
storm glasses which are used for the purpose OF
indicating approaching storms. One Of these
consists Of glass tube, about ten inches In
length and three fourths Of sn inch In diane.
ter, oiled with fluid containing camphor, and
having It's mouth covered with piece OF blsd:
der perforated with q needle. A tall phial will
answer the purpose nearly a. well ss the ten
inch tube. The composition placed within the
tube consists Of two drachms OF camphor, BALI
drachm Of pure saltpetre and half drschm
Of the muriats Of ammonia pulveriied and mixed
with about two ounces Of proof spirits. The
tube IL usually suspended by thread near
window, and the functions Of its contents are
as follows II the atmosphere Is dry and the
weather promises to be settled, the solid parts
Of the csmphor In tho liquid contained In the
tube will remain ut the bottom, and the liquid
above will be quite clear; but on the approach
Of o change to rain, tho solid matter will grad
ually rise, and small crystalline stars will foat
about In the liquid. On the approach OF high
winds, solid parts OF the camphor will rise IN
the form Of leaves and appear near the surface
in state resembling fermentation. These In
dications are sometimes manifested twenty. y.four
hours before storm breaks out After some
experience In observing the motions OF the CAM
phor matter In the tube. the magnitude OF
coming storm may be estimated; also Its direc-
tion inasmuch as the particles lie closer togeth.
er on that side Of the tube that Is opposite to
that from which the coming storm will approach.
The cause Of somo Of these indications Is % yet
unknown, but the leading principle Is the solu.

ity In water, combined with the fact that the
drier the atmosphere the more aqueous vapor
