Priestley a short.time after. having die
i'covered oxygen, ascertained that plants
had the power of decomposing carbonic
acid.gas, and vitiatedair. exhaled from
the.lungs of animals. and noxious gases,
arising from de.composed. ,vegetable mat
ter-rendering. these. exhalations perfect
pure by appropriating .the deleterious
natoms to their own organization, and
thro ing off the pure portion, which again
wias fit for respiration.
In 1776, Cavendish presented. to- the
Royal .Society of London, an esay onu
infliamable air. He describes it as the
lightest. known substance, and that by
eombustion .with oxygen, water was the
only result ;~ hence - the term hydrogen
early applied to this gas. Cavendish al
so discovered the composition of the
atmosphere and demonstrated very
clearly that-the air is composed of-oxygen
and nitrogen, in a state of mere mechani
cal combination. le was led to this con
clusion from the circumstance that in pass
ing currents .ol electricity through cott
mon air, he was enabled to generate ni
trous and nitric acid.
These beautiful experiments of Caven
dish, laid the foundation for that most

Scheele about the same time discovered
chlorine. This discovery of S hee,--ini
conjunction with tiheTalors of his eminent
cntemporaries, contributed to invest
chemistry with -a degree,. of interestrd
importance, which gave it an -entirely
new and distinct aspect, and - an elevated

-The discovery of the chemical influ
cnces of electricity, dates- an important
epock in the history of cbemisrry. an J.is
one of the most fertile sources of its re
cent progress. The first discoverer of the
applicatioteof electrieity to the bodies of
recently killed animals, was made by
Galvani. an anatomist of Bologna, who
lived about the year 1790. le observed
that by placing two plates of different
metals upon a portion of the flesh of a
frog. that spasmodic or convulsive con
tractions were produced. From this dis
covery of Galvani, i: led philoshphers to
the observance of the great analogy be
tween Galvatnistn or electricity. and inner
vation Valta improved titis form of
electricity considerably; he invented the
Pile of Volta. and about the year 1800 the
chemical powers of the Voltaic Pile was
observ-d in regard to the decomposition
of certain salh-< in solution, and water, by
Mr. Nicholsont these were, however.
more correctly investigated shortly after
wards.. by the distinguished French chem
ist. M. Berzelius. But in the hands of
Sir Humptirey Davy. the Vultaic Pile led
to more important and extraordinary re
stits than to any of his co .temporaries.
Anterior to 'he ttme of Davy, the alka
lies and alkaline ep.7ths, w~ere regarded by
chetnists. as simpalle .-relemnentary bodlies.
But Davy in 1807, aucceeded in decomu
posinig these substances,by means of a pow
erful jgalvanic aparatus, and showed that
the basis of these alkalies are metals,
Iwhich have a powerful affinity for oxynen,
and united with it in definite proportions.
Davy rendered great service to chemistry
by his numerous discoveries, and also by
correcting the false opinion wrhich parev9ail
ed, that oxygen- was the only acidifying
principle--he' d'emonitrated the existence
of acids twithlout oxycsti, andl laid the foun
dation of the theory uof the hydracids.
T1o these great researches of Davy, he
added that of the discovery of the safety

attention to the analfsls of stie minerals,
and several of the mineral'*aters. This
branch of chemaistry was greatly extended
and imtproved by Klapreth. who spent at
it his long and laborious- life. Another
