Quicksilver Waste.

At the new Almaden Quicksilver
Works, some years ago, It became
necessary to pull down portion Of
the old retorting furnaces to make
room for other machinery. Upon in
yestigation it was discovered that the
ground where the furnaces had stood
was completely saturated with quick.
silver. The company set q body Of
hands 10 work upon the spot with
hydraulic pipes. aud the amount Of
quicksilver which WAS sluiced out in u
short space Of time was prodigious.
The deeper the work proceeded, the
richer was the yield of mercury Points
were reached where the liquid metal
could be dipped mp with ladies, and II
was ascertained that even the bed rock
"a soft tertiary sandstone-was COM
pletely saturated with the liquid min-
eral. Much Of this porous rock was
duarried and retorted, but 40 length
the cost OF the work exceeded the profit,
and the work was abandoned. = I-ir-
