''Mr. Cross experiments were subse.
quently tried by Mr.. Walker, secretary
to the society. with entire success, and
with every precaution as to the intro
duction of any foreign substance that
might contain the eggs of these insects.
He was also equally successful when the
experiment was conducted in All atmoS-
phere of pure oxygen gas. These exper-
iments have been certified to by the most
respectable authority; and vet there are
persons obstinate and ignorant enough to
deny the possibility of the production of
life from such substance as flint.
''As what we are about to mention is
of similar nature, we expect that the
same class of persons will be incredulous
as to the truth of our statement.
''But truth is mighty and must pre-
vail, and we trust soon to give ocular
demonstration of the facts detailed.
eve shall now follow the language Of
the paper, but give brief outline Of the
facts recorded.
1t seems, that for more than fourteen
years, Prof. Getting, of Bruenberg, man
we'll known in the literary and scieti6c
world, has had his attention directed to
the production of animal life bv means
Of galvanism.
This was a daring thought, but the
professor, with the zeal and devotion
worthy the old alchemists in whose foot
steps he was following, persevered against
obstacles that would have discouraged
any man less sanguine than himself; and
at last has had the satisfaction of seeing
his patient labors crowned with success,
| that will place his name in the foremost
rank of that galaxy of bright stars who
preceded him in the great field of dis
covery.
The professors first experiment was to
hatch chickens from the egg by the cm.
plovment of artificial heat after the man
ner of the Egg ptians. In this he was
entirely successful, and perfected SIM
pie and compact apparatus to maintain,
by means c, hot water, an equal temper.
ature for any period of time.
This being accomplished, he turned his
attention to the production Of the egg.
This was no easy matter; but after In
Vulnerable experiments. during period
often years, the details of which would
fill volume, he succeeded in making a
correc: analysis of all egg. One step was
accomplished but the most difficult was
yet to be taken-the mysterious combi-
nation of the elements SO as to form a
compound similar to the natural articles.
Encouraged by his success, the doctor
set about his almost hopeless task with
determination to Surmount every OBJ
stacle. He felt satisfied that it was only
by means Of gavanism that this objec,
could be accomplished, and directed al
his energies to the construction Of bat
terry Of constant, equal, and moderate
power
After trying nearly every kind Of battery
in use, he had almost begun to despai,
when, by accident, he learned that con
slant battery of moderate power hae
been constructed in England by placing /:
plate of zinc and u plate Of copper in al
ordinary fower.pot, and keeping tn
earth moistencd with ammonia.
He immediately constructed such I
one. After various notifications, he sue
{ cecded IN adapting it to his purpose ; ant
had the satisfaction, after nearly four

restrained himself, however, and ne1
