Of Insurance Commissioner, and We
wish him success.--He has made 4

are certain the public good will be best

Missouri didn't get crumb from the

trust our Governor will not follow the

OCCUR to him that North and Central

oistently made in the appointments.

THE STORAGE OF ELECTRICITY,
From tie Times ofIOh Jane

We published this morning a letter from
Sir William Thomson, supplementary TO
that in which II. |. r. S. on the 10th Of
May, gave the first account Of the convey
uuce tiom Paris to Glasgow OF u box cou-
taining active electricity in a portable
torm aud it would certainly appear, from
both communications, that applications OF
ever widening utility are opening up
before the most potent Of natural forces,
which seems to be rapidly becoming also
the most manageable. Our readers will
remember that = +. |. r. S" related how
he witnessed in Paris, on the 9th Of May
the charging OF tour Ut Faure's batteries
with electricity obtained from an ordinary
Groves battery. The four batteries were
iuclosed IN a wooden box about u cubic
foot in measurement, and weighing, with
it's ,conteuts. about 75lbs. This box Of
''electric euergy" was handed by NJ. Faure
to our correspondent, who brought it with
him across the Channel, and, after 70
hours Of travelling, delivered it to Sir
William Thomson at Glasgow, in order
that the power Of its charge might be
made the subject OF observation and ex-
pertinent. The box was believed TO
contain electricity in quantity equivalent
TO q millloa foot pounds and we now
hear that this belief has been fully borne
out by experiment. No appreciable loss
was incurred during the transit and the
energy put into the tour batteries in Paris
remained in them until it was applied to
working purposes in Glasgow. so com
pletely was the apparatus under command
that one of the four batteries was detached
from the rest. and carried to another place
to supply the force required for an cleo
trio cautery. A single battery, when
reacharged, was left alone for ten days, and
it then yielded to Sir William Thomson
26O,OO0 foot pounds, so that the original
estimate OF u million foot pounds for the
whole box was probably somewhat under
the marx. Further Investigations are
required in order to discover what are the
limits, if any, of the power to preserve
electric energy unwasted but sufficient is
known to show that it can be preserved
long enough for many important practical
applications. That which Sir William
Thomson regards as likely to be the first,
st least 10 polut OF time. is the use Of
Faure's batteries 10 private houses, as
, 1881-07-13

the general application OF electricity to
industrial and domestic purposes.
To those who remember the solicitude
which was expressed, not many years ago,
about the gradual exhaustion ::of the Eng
lish coal fields, and about the inevitable lOsss
whenever that exhaustion reached the
point of famine. of English maritime ADD
manufacturing supremacy, it will be curl
Gus to think OF a possible near future, ia
which the " black diamonds" SO highly
priced by our forefath ers and by our.
selves, may have passed quite out of
the range Of practical application, and
may possess none but an historical
interest, as the sources OF our mechanic
cal power when we did not know how to
obtain it in q better way. We believe
it was Sir William Thomson himself who
once spoke of Niagara as the natural aud
proper chief motor for the whole of the
North American Continent ; and it now
seems quite within the bounds of possibility
that persons who are now living NAV
witness the application of this chief motor
to the indicated uses. It is possible that
they may see electricity brought by electric
railways from The coasts, or from the
estuaries of tidal rivers, and delivered ia the
great towns for the fulfIment of all the
purposes for which coal is at present
either directly or indirectly employed;
and it would not be easy to exaggerate the
benefits, from many points of view. which
such a su substitution of electricity for coal
would afford. If we can imagine the
atmosphere of London smokeless and clean
uncortam;uated either by the solid or by
the gaseous products OF combustion /; with
flowers and fruit f1ourlshing In town gar
dens with our rooms, and especially our
public rooms and places of assembly.
freed from the heat which gas occasions.
and with nature and art manifest 10 their
true colours by night as we'll as by day; our
pictures uninjured, our precious metal q
uncorroded and, indeed, with many Of the
chief features OF EMBELLISHMENTS which
now arise from the aggregation OF masses
of people so much a!ieviated az to ba
scarcely perceptible, We shall be- able
to form some estimate Of the advantages
which the displacement of coal, it's congo.
ne's aud it's products, by electricity, would
be not only likely, but sure to accomplish.
Such is the future which can be foresha-
dowed with some certainty for our desceu.
dants, even if not for ourselves; and a great
step 10 the direction of its being brought
about, q great step towards lifting it from.
the region of mere hypothesis into that of
high probability, was taken when the little
box, with its stored million of foot pounds
of electric energy, Yves conveyed by our
correspondent from Paris to Glasgow.
