much as forty grains of the metal be-
Ing distilled in the time of a few min
utes. He recently resumed his expert
ments in this direction, and an account
Of these IS found in a communication
to the French Academy Of Sciences.
The metal is shown to boil readily in
the furnace at a temperature Of 2,4O0
degrees c., 100 to $50 grains being con-
verified to the gaseous condition within
two or three minutes. BY condensing
the vapor on cold body, either filiform
gold or small cubes of crystallized gold
are obtained. Like copper, gold at its
boiling temperature Is found to dis
solve small amount Of carbon, which
is freed again in the shape of graphite
at the moment Of solididcation.-Sci
