LU CIFER-MATCHUES.

Since the beginning of the present century,

* it may with truth be affirmed that, by the | many inestimable benefits which have reeul t- ed from the application of e@ciemee to our every-day wants, heman fife bas gained in

duration, and its pleasures have increased a thousand/eld. Of these henefits, nut the least important, in atiity and convenience, is the commen lvecrfer-match.

The old methods of obtaining light were | very clumsy and uncertain, compared with it The earliest recorded plan was that of rub- bing together two pieces of dry wood, such as

laure! and ivy Chat was followed by the **flint and eteel,”’ a method whieh remained in goneral use in this country till about thirty-five years ago. The plain splint dipped

in sulphur ts an old invention, and may be viewed as the original form of the Jacifer- match

e} c

Previous to the introduction of é@ lucifer match in 153. various kinds of chemica! wmat- ches were tried. but with little success ow ng to their expense, and the danger attending their tse the“ Eupyrion,”’ ** Promethean,’ and ** triction '’ matches were the most important of these early attempts. he Eapyrion con- eisted of a aplintof wood dipped in sulphur, and afterwards tipped with @ puste concain- ing chlorate of potash, colophony. and cam When a light was desired, it was dipped inte @ little esalphurie acid in a bottle. and rapidly withdrawn .when the ehlorate of pot- ash, owing to the strong chemical act whica ensues between it and the acid, burst inte fame, and set fire to the wooed. Th match wae introduced ic 1 S07. and was sold

one shilling per box The Promethean

S mateh was invented in 1828. and wae a modi-

is

f _Beation of the Eupyrion. It consisted of a roli of gammed paper, containing at the one

+ end a mixture of cbiorate of potash and gum, and a small glass bulb filled with sulphuric acid, aod was ignited by breaking the bulb e With « pair of pliers, and allowing the chio- *rute of potash und acid to come inte contact The friction-match was first made in [832, and resembled the Eupyrion iv every respect With the exception that the paste with which it was tipped contained the additional ingro- dient of sulphide of antimony, and instead of being dipped in acid to cause ignition, it was merely rudbed firmly between glass-paper.

. A gear afterwards, phosphorus was intro- into the match composition, and luei- fer maiches were manufactured for the first tims, although ina much less pertee: form than at present. Ic is remarkable that phos- was not thought of before that period the purpose of match-making, as \t was discovered so far back as the year 166), and its peculiar property of being easily i,nited frietica was known soon afterwards When phosphorus was discovered, it was re- garded merely as a chemical curiosity, and wae sold .for four guineas an ounce: now, howerer, it has become an article of com- merece, and may be bought for less thao ball a crown per pound. In a lucifer-mateh manufactory, the first department you enter is that in which the wood is cutinto splints. Rach plank is sawn into thirty bleeks, and theee, by means _ » of lamcets set in a frame which is worked by a steam, are cut inty splints abowt four and a * half ieches long. Une frame may readily feom two to three mi!lions of splints = The epiints are next cvilected into

ed'ec. and dried by exposure in an oven to the temperature of 310 degrees Fahrenheit. They are then conveyed to the sulphur- house, where both ends of eacti bandle are dipped in sul The nest and last process is called “« dt .* and consists in tipping the ends of the epliota in the phosphorous a xture The composition of thie mixture differs «ceord- ing te the country in which the mateles are to be consumed. Matches for use ws mist cli- mates, sach as our own. contara less pliospho- tue than those for use in warm countries, as phosphorus, when it becomes moist, | ses its property of combustion. A match eompo- sition for use in England should contain two parts of phosphorus, four parte of eblurate of potash, two parte of gum, three parte of powdered glass, and a little vermiliion or other eviouring matter.

™ phorus is the most important in- * gredient im the mateh composition, ag this is it which i\mites when the match is subject to friction, he combustion being conveyed to wood by the chlorate of potash and

> sulphur. The gum is introduced for the pur- pose of making the mixture adhere, and also

*te protect the phosphorus from the a:tion of thearr. Matehes which contain a cons: jerable quentity of chlorate of potash make « snap- peng noise when ignited, while those which ¢entain a emall quantity of that eu'stance make little noise, aad require less friction for their igntion.

To return to the process ef manu‘acture,. _ he splints, after being su) phured, are vonvey-

ed to avother room, in which are arranged '* plates of stone or iron, civered with the phosphorus comporition to the depth of an inch, and heated underneath by steam, for the purpose of keeping the mixture in s fluid etate. The splints are dipped, once, twice, or even oftenersf neeessary, then dried; and as both ends are tipped with the compos: tion, they are next divided, each splint forming two matches. In some manu- factories, the eplints are divided before the composition ie added. The marches, alter being packed in boxes, are ready for the tnarket.

The rapidity with which these various Processes are gone through 1s truly astonish- ing, it being net vnusual in large works to introduce the raw wood into the siw-mills in the morning, and a few hours afterwards, @o ship it in the form of lucifer-mate) es.

_ The manufacture of matches is one attend. } with considerable danger, owing to the inflammable natureof the materials used: Gad these operates engaged in tipring the inte with the composition, are liable to be attacked by a very distressing disease in the jower jaw. eaused by the fumes of tha phos- horus. This evil, however, may be avoided ¥ the uee of amorphous phosphoras, a modi- fication of the ordinary kind, which is quite innocuous and destitute of odour.

Another improvement io this industry was coudé peesotly in the substitution of parafine for sulphur as the substance to convey com- bustion to the splint. The very noxious eulphoroas fumes which the ordinary lucifer match evolves when lighted, are thus dune away with.

Many attempte have been made of late to seduce the hiahility of matches to ignite by friction, as trom this cause very serous eal- amities have originated. Aa ingen: us plan, devised by a continental manufacturer, re- duces this risk toa minimum I[t consists in dividing the match comp sition into two parts, placing the one on the end of theeplint, and the other containing the phosphorus, on the side of the box. By this means. the match will only ignite whee rubbed against the box.

The statistics of the lucifer-mateh manu- facture are very extraordinary. Austria, which ia# the great centre of this industry, exports about two thousand five hundred tons of matches annually. One maker sells one | thousand four hundrea matehes for one farthing,another offers five thousuod in boxes for fuurpence. In France and Swe jen also, the manufacture is very extensive. In this country, two hundred and fifty millions of | matches are used dai/y, which is at the rate of exght per day tor every indwidual. Of this enormous number, we only manufacture one-fifth, the other four-fifths being imported | from the continent.—Chambers's Journal. |

The unequalled success that has attended the applica- tion of this medicine in al) cases of

These formidable diseases are, unfortunately, of frequent occurrence; for the most part they creep | on gradually, but may be prevented by proper pre- cautions.

From L. J. RACINE, Esq.,

of La Minerve, Montreal. “ Having experienced the most gratifving results from the use of Ur. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, 1 am induced to express the great confidence which I have in its efficacy. For nine months [ was most cruelly afflicted with a severe and opstinate cough, accompanied with acute pain in the side, which did not leave me, summer or winter, The svmptoms increased alarmingly, and so reduced was { that I could walk but a tew steps without resting to recover from the pam and fatigue which so slight aa exertion occasioned. At this juncture I commenced taking the Balsam, trom which I found tmmediate relief, and after having used four bottles | was completely restored to health. I have used the Balsam in my fam- ily, and administered it to my children, with the happiest results. 1 am sure that such Canadians as use the Bal- sam can but speak in its favor. It is a preparation which has only to be tried to be acknowledged as the remecy par exrcelience.**

A CURE FOR WHOOPING COUGH.

St. HyacintHys. C.E., Aug. 2), 1856. Messrs. SetH W. Fowie & Son

Gentlemen :—Several months since a little daughter of mine, ten years of age, was taken with Whooptn Cough in a very aggravated form, and nothing we coul do for her seemed in any way to relieve her suffering. We at length decided to try a bottle of Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry. In three hours after she had commenced using it, she was greatly relieved, and in less than three days was entirely cured, and is now well. I have since recommended the Balsam to many of my neighbors, who have used ft, and in no case have [ known it fail of effecting a speedy cure.

You are at liberty to make any use of the above you think proper. If it shall induce anybody to use your Balsam I shall be giad, for I have great confidence in it.
