SCIENTIFIC.

e IMPROVEMENTS IN MtsiG PRINTrNd.-
M. Lourdel, the well-known French
photographer has made some ingeni-
Gus improvements in music printing.
In the latter art, as is we'll known, it is
necessary to have, first of all, the com
position lightly skctched on sheets of
tin, after which it is engraved on the
plate by workman, who holds
punch in his left hand and a hammer
in his right. AS the design has to be
transferred, it is engraved reversed,
which requires both an experienced
eye and steady hand. In order to
save the large expense Of the sheets OF
tin, NJ. Lourdel's plan is to take piece
of transfer paper, which has been pre-
viously lined and spaced; the work.
man has before him composition
case like a printers, which contains in
each division tool, at the extremity
of which Is musical sign; beside him
Is q pad impregnated with transfer
ink-he therefore lays the ruled trans
fer paper before him, and with the
right hand he takes the musical signs,
notes, etc., inks them, and then prints
the paper without the slightest effort,
and with entirely satisfactory results.
It is simply a matter of regularity and
rapidity, speed being easily acquired
after little practice. The music is
then transferred to the stone, and
proofs taken at will.

MAGNETIC IRON SAND.-The inv

MAGNETIC IRON SAND.-The investi-
cation made of the circumstances at
tending the wreck of the Ottawa, on
the Taraniki coast, tends to confirm
the belief, long since entertained by
scientific men, that the magnetic sand,
which there abounds in such immense
quantities, is the cause of the steering
compasses Of ships and steamers run
ming along shore in that region becom-
ing deranged. This has been alleged as
the cause of the loss of the steamer Air
dale, and some three or four other yes-
sells. 1t will be remembered that some
fifteen years ago, many vessels were
cast ashore on the South American
coast, and, after many close investiga-
lions, it was discovered that the base
of some OF the mountains along the
coast line contained large quantities
Of iron ore.

FIRE-PRooF JoIsT. - An ingenious
kind of fire-proof joist recently intro
duced, consists of slip of wood five
inches wide, by five-eighths of an inch
thick belted between two Hanged strips
Of quarter inch iron, making beam
quite as strong as those of wood Or
dinarily employed. The iron sides, in
addition to affording strength, it is
claimed, render the joist substantially
fire-proof, while the centre Of wood az

sides, but this has now been success

INITIATING ENAMEL ON IRoN.-A SIM
pie and beautiful process Of initiating
enamel on iron, has recently been in
troduced. The process consists in pro-
ducing on iron various designs Of diff
ferent colors, and initiating tho vitro-
enamel in the following manner: A
crystallized appearance is given to tin
ned iron by means of mixture Of
water and sulphuric and nitric acids,
applied thereon, and then carefully
washed off. An impression of design
is made on suitable transfer paper, on
which coatings of solid white and sill
yer bronze dust and colors are ap-
piled, according to the effect desired
to be produced. The plate, prepared
in this manner, is coated with mix
ture Of turpentine and copal va. .sn;
it is then heated, the design trans
ferred thereon in the usual way, and
the plate baked and polished.
