288 Ghe Mining and Scientific Breas,
At
Incentous Meruop.—The ordinary methods
of crushing large masses of cast iroo into fragments are both cumbersome and expensive,
but by the means which has lately been described in Les Mondes, this operation inay be
conducted with considerable ensé. The new
French method consists io drilling 2 hole in
the mass of cast iron for abont ore-third of its
thickness, filling this with water, closing it with
a steel plug which fits accurately, and letting
the ram of a pile-driver fall on the plug. ‘he
very first blow splits up the nruss.
Tris said that 279,000 gallons of wioe, worth
more than five hundred thousand dollars, was
made during the past season on tbe south
shore of Lake Erie.
Traces of lithium, rubidum, titapium, and
vanadium, as well as of copper, lead and tin,
have been discovered in basaltic rocks at
Giesseo, near the Hartz Mountains.
