That the trials of the past month have not been successful in the. estimation of those who were in charge or = interested appears evident; we have not been able to learn the precise cause, Probably the roasting was found to require too much time, and the fuel, after all, was too costly, as compared with ordinary roasting.

A statement of the times required to roast different charges, and the results in general. from some of the late. metallurgists of the French mil!, would surely be worthy of record, for comparison with the ordinary air roasting. We surmise, further, that the roasting was done in part only to the stage of sulphata, since that is all that a low red heat would effect ; while a light red, or white heat, such as is requisite for perfect amalgamation or chlogjnation, would have de» streyed the cylinder. : What was known several years ago as the “Rivot process,” was an attempt to accomplish similar results chemically. furnace,—into which steam was injected from above; but it was not successful, owing, as is stated, to the impossibility of excluding air in the stirring that was found necessary.
