NOTES ON PARIS GREEN.



Paris green is the most useful aud
valuable of the arsonicas used ms in
sccticidcs. As is well known, its action
Is more rapid and effective than that OF
London purple, and having dedn'to
chemical composition IL ought to I've
subject 10 variation in the amount Of
the active agent, arsenic, Its use as an
insccticide has enormously extended
of late years, and upward of 1900 tons
are annually employed in the United
States. besides 400 tons in Canada. The
chief difficulty in using Paris green is
the readiness with which IL settles -
the bottom of the tank or reservoir of
the spraying apparatus. This Is be-
cause IL is rather coarse powder, very
much less finely divided than London
purple, which latter fact gives the
purple certain advantage
A recent conversation with one of the
leading manufacturers OF Paris green
has brought ont the fact that this
coarsencss of grain and the accompany
ing difficulty in using Paris green In
water suspension is quite unnecessary.
IL seems that the market has hitherto
~ iblOIti
the lighter color having been deemed TO
indicate adulteratiou. IL seems. how
ever. that the darker color Is simply due
to the larger size of the crystals. II
the green were reduced TO an impalpablc
powder, which would make IL much
more satisfactory as an insecticide. IL
would lose the intensity of its color and
become whitish. This manufacturer tells
me that for a number of yearshe was
able practically TO control the market,
because lac had discovered q means OF
crystallizing the green in unusually
large PARTICLES, securing very
dark-colored product, although he
was aware that for the use in
tended the product so obtained
was much less valuable. Yet Che
darker green, with it's accompany
ing larger sized crystals, is more diff.
cult 20 manufacture and hence cx.
pensiye.
Itscems, therefore, tina all these
years we have been using a poison
which could have been had ut less ex-
pcnse and in a much more satisfactory
form,--Inscct Life.

aSATIATED WITH GOLD.n

Alex. Del Mar, one of the leading
authorities of the world on finance, is
sure that the silver question is settled
forever. The question of gold will soon
be an anxious one, and on this point he
has revolutionized his views He was
one of the authors of the theory that
gold was becoming inadequate for the
commercial uses of the world, ON account
of its limited production, while the use
of it was constantly extending. This
theory the bimetallists took up and
worked with the greatest energy. The
condition that he feared few years ago
has been totally changed by the dis
covery of the cyanid process, which per-
mits the profitable working Of the lowest
grade of ores. Now he thinks it likely
that the world will be "satiated with
gold" Ores can now be worked at a
cost of from 81 to s1.25 a ton, thus
giving profit on all that contain more
than that, and of this grade there are
imitless quantities. He says:
Gold is the most commonly diffused Of all
the metals. 1t is even to be obtained, and
has been obtained, from salt. There is an
almost continuous line Of hills, filled with
low-grade ores stretching from Alaska to
Patagonia This is the Mother Lode. know
of a single hill in California which has been
explored enough to demonstrate" nearly
40, 0O0, 900 tons of low grades, which numer-
Gus engineers have averaged at $40 ton,
but which, for safety's sake, we will put at
SIS ton. 1t is veritable quarry, and, with
adequate machinery, can be all cleaned up
in few years. aaid
He recommends the imposition of a
slight seigni0rage say, p per cent
to retain the gold coined in our own
country. He claims that the miners
have no more right to have their gold
coined free of charge than the lumber
men have to have the Government work
up their product free of cost into chairs
and tables.

A MATTER OF pRERosArrvEs.

1t seems clear to us that the sup
porters of the Congressional right of in
reference in Cuban matters have much
the best of the argument. The Consti-.
tuition being silent on the subject, the
Presidents claim to exclusive power in
dealing with foreign affairs, except
where otherwise provided, rests solely on
precept, precedent, and general practice.
He has assumed this because it is the
prerogative everywhere of the Chief Ex-
ecutive of a Nation.
But the exercise of powers not
specifically regulated by the Constitu-
ton is subject to continual modification,
and the power to make this modification
| must rest with Congress. Congress is
the direct representative Of the people,
and, broadly speaking, can assume any
of the powers not specifically granted
| by the Constitution to the other two
branches OF the Government. This is
the natural course in any free Govern
ment. Therefore, as the Constitution
has not definitely bestowed upon the
President the sole right, or any right,
except by implication, to recognize for
eign Governments, to determine which
of two shall be recognized, when an In
surrection shall have become a revolu
ton, etc, that power can be with entire
right assumed by Congress
Practice and precedent do not count
for as much as Secretary Olney and hi
supporters would have them. 1t i

Congress may override the veto. Thel
