How Verdigris Is Made.

Verdgris is termed by chemists 'tribasic
acetate of "copper"" and is formed by the ac-
tion of acetic acid upon metallic copper in the
presence of oxygen. There are several meth
DDS Of conducting the manufacture; in one
the refuse of grapes after the expression OF
the juice in wine makings used as the source
OF the acid which rises in vapor from the de-
composing residuum. In another vinegar is
used, the copper being dipped in it at inter-
walls; in third fanne,s are wrung in vinegar
and wrapped around the copper which Is then
laid where it will be acted upon by currents
of air.
The grape refuse is used at Montpelier, in
France, in the following manner. The cop
per in very thin sheets is rubbed with vine
gar and laid away for time in wa m boxes
where the requisite corrosion is merely il /
tiated. In the meantime the grape refuse is
packed in brrrels and allowed to remain until
it begins to undergo acetic fermentation.
This accomplished, portion of the material
is spread In the bOttIm of ditch lined with
brick. On this is placed layer of the pre-
pared copper, then more grape refuse, then
more copper, and so on. until the pit Is full.
When the grape residuum becomes white its
effect is spent The sheets are then re-
moved and exposed to the air. As soon as
they become dry they are wet with water
and again exposed, and so on six or seven
times in succession, until the layer of verdi
girls having become sufficiently thick is
scraped off. This done, the plate is again
rubbed with vinegar. and in the grape refuse,
ETC., undergoes again the same treatment ur,
til completely exhausted.

4 Stage Drivers RemiDiscARee.

Everybody in California knows, or ought to
know, or at least knows of Col Andrew Jack
son Gambil, familiarly called, by his friends,
Jack Gambill," for short, in early times
a pioneer packer in Trinity and Siskiyou.
Aware of the fact that the colonel had in ear
ly life d led the responsible position of stage
driver in Tennessee and Alabama, the writer
once asked him If he had ever known Land
Admiral Reside. "Know old Reside, Judge !?
Why, never knew anybody else; he was a
trump, you betF' Having struck tavorite
theme, he continued; druv stage for the
admiral out OF Montgomery the whole of the
winter, and it was mighty rough, ! tell you.
Thar had been power of rain, equal to Cali
fornia, aud the roads were awful heavy: in
fact, in some places it was just as much as a
four-hoss team could possibly do to pull an
empty stage. Veil, in addition to the regular
mail under lock and key in the leather bags,
there was always lot of canvas sacks fllie /
with about ton Of documents and seeds,
mostly the latter, franked by memners of Con
gress. I'd start out about two o'clock in the
morning, with all this deck load, making
things awfu.ly heavy. As would be about
startin', the admiral would take me one side,
and confidentially remark, Jack, you've got
a big load of passengers and q tremendous
large mail; you'd better distribute the Con-
gressional matter as soon as you can.' 'Al

THE NEwsPAPER.-Rev. Robert Collyer
preached sermon last week upon ''News-
papers," his text being from the second chap
ter OF Daniel, verses 81, SO and SO, in which
he said
As the newspaper makes tributary to its
purpose the finest results of science and dis
covery, so also 1t captures the finest power
OF the current thought and life. DR.. Chalm-
ers said, many years ago, that the best think
ing and the best writing of his day was done
for the newspaper. 1t was perfect wonder
to him how such matchless ESSAYS as he read
every day could be written on the spur of the
moment, in the clash and clang of the inrens-
e't life of the world, and VIII; n each question
that came up for discussion had been sprung
then and there on the writer. 1t is not too
much to say that the newspaper article, on
the average. Is as much better now as the
papers are better than those of thirty years
ago, on which Chalmers based his wonder.
1t is the result of this devouriDg enterprise,
fed by ample means, which searches through
every corner and Granny of the land for men
and women of the finest ability, and then
fastens them with golden chains, as the old
Roman conquerers fastened kings, each in
their own place. And, not content with the
best thought, it secures, at the same time,
VIC hcOueot enterprise. IL stuuS news 10
