JACOBS WELI.-In the new Quarter
ly Statement of the Palestine Explora-
ton Eund we read: =
"One OF the few sites in Palestine, the
identity of which has never been assailcd.
is that Of Jacobs Well. 1t is situated q
mile and half east of Nablus, on tho
edge of the Plain Of Mukhua, and on the
eastern base of Mount GerMim. Cap
tain Anderson, who examined il in lS6I;
cleared out the mouth, and was lowered
by p rope to the bottom. He found it
seyenty-livc feet deep, of circular form,
wish diameter of Z feet inches, and
Tired throughout with rough masonry
The bottom of the well was perfectly dry
;;n May, lii; the presence 9: :. small
unbrokcn pitcher proved that water is
sometimes found in it. Captain Andcr-
son thinks. however, that the wel,-into
| which every visitor throws stone-was
formerly very much deeper. Besides the
stones, debris of n ruined church, built
over the well In the fourth century, has
fallen into it and helped to fill it up.
An offer has been made by DR.. Nathan
icl Rogers, of Exeter, one of the subscri-
bers &c the fund, of ESQ towards the
complete cleaning out Of this we'll, so
rich i'll Scriptural associations. The
committee have accepted his offer, and
propose to perform this work on The re-
tern of the survey party. 1. is estima-
ted that an additional ESQ will be re-
quiled for the labor, making fl00 in all
and il will be cxpedient to have the
work superntended by the English OFF.
GERS of the Fund. When cleared out
however, steps should be taken to pre-
vent its being filled up again, and the
committee would like 10 surround the
mouth of the we'll with somo kind o
memorial stone work the nature aud de-
sign of which will be matter of careful
consideration.

In this diagram we have n clear illus.
tralion of what have cndcavorcd to
state To you. Plain bone without the
animal part, is tri cui,ic phosphate, phos-
plioric acid, lime, lime, lime; 6i-cacic
phosphate is phosphoric ncil. lime, lime,
water; mona Jnyic phosphate is phn+ilio-
ric acid, lime, water, water. Mr. Davis
VII act upon the three Gme phosphute
and change it over into The one lime phos-
phatc with his vitriol. lie begins with
an insolublc substance, that il. nsolublc
in water, and leaves oil with one that is
soluble. All the phosphoric acid hcld
by three equivalents Of lime is now held
only by one. If he took fine ground raw
bone, he would reach the same result 80
far IA chemical action is concerned, but
he would have pasty mass, very diff
cu!t to dry. :: ne took the Charleston
powdered phosphate roch9. he would
have dry aud manageable powder after
the reaction is over. Therefore, you can
not well act upon raw bones either fine
or in small bits satisfactorily, but you
can upon bone char, or the rocks of the
Charleston mari beds.
Now, you ask. if this supcrphospha,c
will remain soluble as it is for long
time? Ianswcr, probably not all OF it.
The mono-basic phosphate has ten
tlcncy to 90 back, or reccrt, as the change
is sometimes termed, and this means that
it will to some extent, that is, the phos-
phoric acid, take up another equivalent
OF lime in the compound and thus be-
come dibasic phosphate. regard this rs
a not unfavorable change, for the reason
that it is more slowly soluble in the soil,
it is not So quickly available, and there
fore is more enduring in its action upon
crops. 1t is not certain but that we shall
tind it better to convert all of our phos-
pilates into the bi-bdSic form, rather than
into the moHo-Gasic, rs tina. form of acid
may be too strong to be assimilatcd by
plants. We do not yet know precisely
in what condition the acid is taken mp :;
we certainly know it must be soluble in
water. however"
