The walls of the fortress of Ciudad Rodrigo, in Spain, are of concrete. The marks of the boards which retained the semi-fluid matter in their construction are everywhere perfectly visible; and besides sand and gravel, there are large quantities of round bowlder-stones in the walls, from 4 to 6 inches in diameter, procured from the ground around the city, where they abound. Schroder's cement: coal-ashes, 100; hydraulic cement, 16; Portland cement, 1 part. Work in a pug-mill and mold. Cooley's: coarse pebbles, 60; rough sand, 25; lime, 15. Semple: pebbles, 80; rough sand, 40; lime, 10. Concrete-wall building. The mode of building concrete walls is indicated by the cut, in which the mass of mortar is held between facing walls of brick and inner boards, the latter being temporary. Con-crete′--press. A machine in which a mass of concrete is pressed into the form of a building block. The concrete is placed in the hopper m, and, when the slide n and the lower slide are

arnish the metallic surface. Hollow vessels are silvered by pouring in the solution and turning them round and round. Other oils or grape-sugar are also used. Vohl has a solution of gun-cotton in caustic potassa, to which is added a solution of nitrate of silver, followed by sufficient liquor of ammonia to redissolve the precipitate. The resulting argentiferous liquid is applied to the glass, which is heated over a water-bath until offervescence ensues, when the silver is deposited. Cooley recommends: Mix saccharic acid with solution of nitrate of silver, decant, apply, precipitate by solution of ammonia, and heat to render deposit brilliant. Glass-soap. Peroxide of manganese used to remove from glass the green color due to the presence of iron. Glass-sol′der-ing. Guinand, of Brenetz in Neufchatel, acquired the art of soldering together pieces of glass. When the line of junction was marked by globules of air or particles of sand, he ground out the latter on the

oard on the end of the pole, effectually glazes the paper. This primitive mode of glazing is now generally superseded by the process of calendering between two rollers of polished steel, which effects the result in a more perfect, durable, and rapid manner. The edges of books may be marbled in a similar way. For this purpose a mucilage of linseed, allowed to simmer at a gentle heat for five or six hours, may be used instead of the more expensive gums. The varieties are thus cited by Cooley (Practical Recipes, page 753): soap, thread, rice, tree, wax marbling, according to the style of associating the colors, placing them on the mucilage, the use of combs, threads, etc., to dispose the colors, and the choice of materials. Mar′ble-pol′ish-er. Marble is first rubbed with sandstone, and the beater, afterwards with pumicestone. It is polished by hand with a linen cushion and emery-dust for colored marbles, and with the powder of calcined tin for white marbles, the emery bein

g upon the powder. Pyrophone. Two other recipes are given by Brande:— Mix 3 parts of lampblack, 8 parts of carbonate of potassa, 4 parts of dried alum. Calcine as before. Or, 27 parts of sulphate of potassa, 15 parts of calcined lampblack. Heat to redness in a crucible, and keep in a stoppered bottle. Or, heat tartrate of lead red-hot in a glass tube and seal hermetically. Break the tube and shake out the powder, which inflames spontaneously by contact with the air. See Cooley's Cyclopaedia, page 1084. A pyrophorus for cigars is described as follows: Neutral sulphate of iron is treated with diluted nitric acid and precipitated; the resulting oxide is reduced by heat in a tube through which a current of hydrogen is passed. This is combined with a sulphide of aluminium and potassium and a small amount of carbon. A portion of this is placed on the end of a cigar, the breath is inhaled, and by the affinity of certain particles of the composition for oxygen the i

e wood appears to afford no immunity from its attacks. Oil of creosote seems to be the only effectual preventative; piles saturated with this substance were unattacked after being submerged five years.
