So thin as to look as if they would

for such a formation. He supposes
that there has been un epoch when
nitrogen compounds were disengaged
from the volcanoes, just us thero were
porphyritic mouatains, which have
given rise to the beds of kaoliu and
other clays. In general, the sultpetre
exists in the form of saccliaroid soda

nitrate nn?l iodate of potash, chlorides

f Thompson's JBctupsiso TjIoht.- What
is known as >tlk*e Thompson eclipsing
light is being satisfactorily adopted
on some pu?'ts of the English coast
This apparatus consists of a train of
wheels earryuug the noocssary screens
for ecii]>slng the lights. Throe screens
are cttrt'led round tho light once in
about 'eleven seconds. Two of these
mo narrow, while n third has twice
the 'breadth; the result of this being
to give two short eclipses and one
long oolipse the eftectto an outside
observer being two short Intervals of
darkness and on? Ituag one, or, in
other words, dot, ?'.ot, dash, in accordance
with the Morse telegraph alphabet.
Then follows and interval of
uninterrupted light, after which the
eclipse are rer-eatocW Formerly, a
illxed red light, was thought the best
arrangement, but the "objection to this
is its liability to be mistaken for a
ship's port l'*ght, and the comparatively
short 'iiitaucw from which it
oau be dlscen ied.
