SHIPPING LOCOMOTIVES.

How American Engines arc Packed for
Shipment to Foreign Shores.
Pittsburgh locomotives are now
shipped to every part of the civilized
world. Their levers are operated by
the hand of the japanese engineer, as
well as by the dark-skinned engine
driver of the South American Govern
ments.
Messrs. Fl. X. Porter will ship six
engines to Buenos Ayres, Argentine
Republic, South America, to be used
on a railroad which runs between that
city and the coffee plantations lying
out in the country. They are of special
sizes, with nine-inch cylinder and
sixteen-inch stroke. A young Law
renceville mechanic, Mr.. William
Byers, will accompany the engines to
their destination and sunerintend their
reconstruction.
The greatest obstacle to be overcome
in shipping of such freight to foreign
markets is in packing them. Each OF
these engines has been put together in
their works, and has been subjected
to a severe test. This is necessary,
as the contract demands that the en-
before they are accepted by the rail
road company. They are then taken
apart, and ec.ch piece of the engine is
packed in a separate box, which is
made expressly for that purpose.
About /, 500 feet of the best hemlock
lumber is required to pack one of these
little engines. They are shipped to
New York, and from thence by a sail
ing vessel to their destination.
Each is supplied with automatic and
steam brakes. The air brake has not
vet been introduced. The couplings
also differ slightly from engines used
on American railroads. The furnaces
are SO constructed that either coal or
wood can be used as fuel.
This is the first shipment of engines
ever made to Buenos Ayres by this
firm, which enjoys the reputation of
being the first firm to introduce an en-
CINE into Eastern Asia.-Pittsburgh

THE VENOM OF SNAKES.

Pigs the Only Warm BloOded Animals Not
Affected by the Poison.
From the time of FOntana, the first
writer on the subject (1767), to the
present, a multitude of theories have
been preached as to the composition
and nature of snake poision. This be-
ing the age of microbes, it was natural
that its lethal qualities should be as
cribed to the presence Of microscopic
organisms theory, however, which
has been disproved by actual expert
ment. The venom of the cobra di ca
pellO and the fer de lance, inelosed in
a sterilized vessel and exposed for
three hours to a temperature of 125 de-
grees Centigrade, still retains its Pc
culiar properties. It is effective even
when mixed with alcohol or ammonia,
and resists the action of the most pow
erful acids, such as caustic potash and
nitrate of silver. Snake venom In its
natural state, though somewhat like
ordinary saliva, is less fluid and
more gummy, its color varying
from amber to clear yellow. 1t
dries rapidly on exposure to the
air, when, while retaining it's natural
color, it becomes CLASSY and shining.
The latest authority on its chemical
composition is NJ Armand Gautier.
After Analysing many specimens he has
come to the conclusion that the active
principle of all snake venom is animal
alkalOid analogous to that which is
found in a purifying body; and how
deadly that is, many an unfortunate
surgeon, accidentally inoculated while
making an autopsy, has found to his
cost. The venom is neither a virus
nor a ferment. 1t is a septic principle
like stryehnine and digitalis, and, like
strychnine and digitalis, it acts always
in the same way, other things being
equal. Hence assuming the correct
ness of M. Gautier's theory thevenom
of the English viper and the cobra are
practically Identical. the bite of the
| latter being more fatal simply be-
cause nature has provided him
with a greater abundance of
septic matter. According to DIR. Weir
Mitchell and other authorities the
glands of the viper contain 10 cent?
grammes of venom, those of the rat
/ JloSnak6 from 10 TO Of C6QBl gfdmmeS,
of the Indian maya 1.30 grammes. The
virulence of the venom, or rather the
| vigor of the serpent, is, moreover,
modified by climate and temperature.
In the higher parts of Martinique, for
instance, the poison from snakes is
much less dangerous and much less
| frequent than in the valleys and
plains. The greater freshness of
mountain air lowers the snake vitality,
and though his store of venom may be
the same he strikes his enemy or his
prey with diminished energy. Snakes
only enjoy the fullness. of their powers
in low ATTITUDES. Cold stuPefies them.
The European viper becomes torpid in
winter, and menagerie snakes are
reused with difficulty from their
habitual languOr. On the other hand,
cold blooded Observation-Disclosures fishes,
frogs, turtles and snakes themselves
are imperviOus to the poison which the
latter secrete. The only warm
blooded creatures proof against it are
pigs. an immunity which they owe to
the thickness of their adipose tissue.
