Utilizing the Sums Heat. rFroY, fba T,oDdoD GIoba1

| A French inventor is said to have contrived an arrangement of mirrors by which the suns rays may be so concentrated as to work a | steam-engine It is not the first time this has | been attempted, and probably will not be the | last The utilization of the suns heat for 1 such purposes has long been dream of in- ventors, and the future may very possibly see | something of importance accomplished in l this direction. Such an invention as this will probably be combined with another announc- ed year or two back, but of which we have
 since heard nothing. This consisted of a plan for storing solar heat. Powerful convex mirrors were brought to bear on mass of
 metal upon which the heat of the sun was in tensifed to such an extent as to bring it to a
 very high temperature In that condition it
 was inclosed in carefully constructed non
 conducting box until required for use. The
 storage of water in frozen condition has be-
 come so simple matter that 1t cannot be re-
 garded as altogether Utopian to look forward
 to the time when the storage of highly heated
 bodies will also be practicable and easy. On a small scale and with moderate degrees of heat it is done now, indeed 1t is obviously quite as easy to preserve high temperature as low one. The invention alluded to af- forded the means of laying up store of solar heat and also an arrangement by which store might be drawn upon at pleasure. That would obviate the one great difficulty in the utilization of the suns heat, viz, the fact that the great lumlnary IS not always shin ing, and will rarely show himself precisely when he is wanted, in our attitudes at any rate. There is nothing absolutely impossi- ble or impracticable in either of these inven- tions, or in their combination, but the fatal objection to any scheme of the kind hitherto conceived is, that it requires an outlay far beyond what will be compensated by the re- sults Taking interest on the necessary out lay into account such eontrivances cannot as vet be made to pay The future may see this difficulty overcome, and then his solar eminence may find he has good many little odd jebs to attend to as round the world he shines"
