The Ndferidi OHf Of Uhich OUI
Fire cent COIN IN N0de

Since thu convenient live cent coin
which in common talk is called ~ nick
el, has come into general circulation,
| the question above is asked either men
tally or orally hundreds of times every
| day, and but few get an intelligent an
swcr. In China and India, white
copper, called pack tong, has long been
known, and has been extensively used
both there and in Europe for counter
| fciting silver coin. About the year 200
Il peculiar ore was discovered in the
copper mines of SaXony, which had the
appearance of being very rich, but in
smelling it yielded no copper, and the
miners called il kupfernickel, or false
copper. In 1854, Constadt announced
the discovery of Il new metal in kupfrr-
nickel, to which he gave the name Of
nickel. 1t was in combination with ar
senic from which he could relieve it
only in parts. The alloy of nickel and
arsenic which he obtained was white,
brittle and very hard and had II melting
point nearly AS high rs cast-iron. 1t
was not until 1923 that pure nickel was
obtained by analysis of German silver,
which had for Il number of years been
produced at Suhl in SaXony. Its com
| position was a>Ccrtaincd To be copper
| 10 parts, zinc ;, and nickel 1. If more
| nickel be used the alloy is as white as
silver and susceptible OF u very high
polish, but becomes too brittle and hard
to he hammered or rolled. and can be
worked only 10y casting. Pure nickel
is white metal which furnishes read
| lily in the air Unlike silver, it is not
| acted on by the vapor of sulphur, and
even the strong mineral acids attract it
but slightly. Nickel has the hardness
OF iron, and like it, has strong magnetic
properties. but cannot be welded and is
soldcrcd with difficulty. Pure nickel
has heretofore been used chiefly for plat
ing, for which purpose its hardness and
power to resist atmospheric influences
admirably adopt it. Within the last
year the French have succeeded in roll
ing the metal into plates, from which
spoons and other table furniture may be
pressed. Nickel bronze, which consists
Of equal parts of copper and nickel,
with little tin, may he cast into very
delicate forms, and is susceptible of
a high polish. Mines of nickel are
worked at Chatham, Conn, and Lancas-
ter, Pa, and it is said to be found at
Mine LIE Motto, Mo, and at several
points in Colorado and New Mexico,
where but little attention is paid to it.
1t is extensively mined in SaxOny and |
i'll Sweden, but the late discovery OF
new ore "a silicatc of nickel in New |
Caledonia will probably suspend the
use of the arsenical ores, and yet bring
nickel into common use. Switzerland, |
in the year 1852, made a coin of German |
silver, which is identical in composition |
with our nickel coin. The United |
States made nickel cents III 1856, and |
eight years later coined the . cent pieces.
Belgium adopted nickel coinage in 1860
and Germany in 1873. England has
lately coined pennies for Jamaica, but
at home she and France adhere to the
clumsy copper small change.

THE PRESIDENT.

Last Saturday Il sudden and nnfavor-
able change in the condition Of President
Garfield took place: lie was seized with
!. deatlly chill, and for Is time it was
feared that his last hour was at hand.
The startling news flew over tale city Of
Washington like wiIaire .and was tele-
graplcd from one end Of the country 10
the other, creating tho utmost grief and
CONSERVATION everywhere.
Fortunately, however, the President
weathered the new dagger and seems
again Oh tho high road to recovery. Tbe
temporary tronblc was caused by All OBJ
struction to the flow of pus from the
wound. Tho attending surgeons made
an incsion which restored the wound to
it's former condition ard at once relieved
the unfayorable symptoms of their pa
tent.
The President has completely rallied
from this setback and is now better
than at any time since he was shot. Sew
eral small pieces of bone-fragments Of
a fractured Or injured rib-i,ayp been
taken from his wound during the past
week. Tho location Of the ball is said
to have been discovered, and it seems
likely that the liver has not been injured
as was supposed to be the case. No
present attempt will be made to remove
the bullet.
