Extract

By means of a large quantity of solid carbonic acid, obtained from the University Chemical Laboratory, it was found possible to solidify, and maintain in the solid form for a considerable time, a large mass of mercury. Preliminary experiments made about a year ago, in the usual manner, by means of a triple circuit (iron, german silver, mercury), did not give results of a satisfactory kind. This was apparently due to the difficulty of maintaining steady, or steadily varying, temperatures.
