The wonders of science will never
cease. A French gentleman. NJ. De Ia
Bastie, has recently discovered and per
fected a process by which glass IL rem
dcred so tough as to fairly be called
unbrcs kable. He plunges plates or anv
articles of glass, while heated almost to
the point Of melting, into bath OF hot
oil. Then, gradually cooling. the sub.
stance which is usually so brittle seems
to absorb enough of the oil to wholly
chan re its character. No alteration is
visible. The former brilliancy and
transparency remain, But q new and
peculiar strength is acquired. R.marka-
bic facts are given in illustration of the
decided change Effected by this process.
Glass dishes thus prepared may be thrown
upon the floor or dashed together without
injury. Window panes dropped upon
iron gratipgs rebound unbroken, and it
requires repeated aud vigorous blows of a
hammer to fracture plate of glaes one
fourth of an inch thick It il difficult to
overes innate the practical value Of such .
discovery as this.
