There is J ;n Rural Press. also another prominent feature which has puz-' zled astronomers, even to the present day. I From many of tbe ringed mountains, notably I from Tycbo, Copernicus and Kepler, are radia-1 tions, extending in some cases hundreds of ' miles, which at tho full of the moon glisten with a remarkablo brightness. They shine as brilliantly under the oblique as under the ver tical rays of tho Hun a fact yet unexplained; they pass over the topi and through the craters of volcanoes, and down through the valleys in an uninterrupted course. Of the many theories concerning them, perhaps tho most reasonable is that they are veins of matter ejectod from below during somo great volcanio or earthquake disturbances, and in many respects they re semble ourwn trap-dykes andseims. Since the time of Galileo, astronomers have painfully, patiently and perseveringly mapped every detail of the moon's surface, until we havo lunar topographical charts more accurately constructed than any hitherto constructed of the earth's entire surface Photography has recently aided largely in this work. By careful experiments it has beon proven that the light of the full moon Is only 1 600,000 part of that of tbe sun, and that BUo gives only one-sixth as much light as would a pure white diso; therefore, she is nearer black than white. An equal sized globe of fire-brick or clay thrown into tne orbit of tho moon would furnish us with light as bright as our own luminary.

Phosphor bronze, which has recently been introduced with some eclat as an alloy of cop per and bronze, proves not to be an alloy, but a true chemical combination of copper with phosphorus, or a phosphide of copper in defi nite proportions. The union of the two may be through the cold or the hot process, the cold sufficing for certain applications, being prefer able indeed to combinations produced by heat. By the hot process the introduction of simple bodies other than the metals or metalloids is prevented. Tbo copper used in the process must be commercially pure. Of the tbree kinds of phosphorus the operator may take bis choice; tho ordinary, the amorphous, and the earthly biphosphates. Tbe amorphous is tbo most expensive, and is also tho best. Ac cording to Delatot, the percentage of phos phorus varies from two to four, between which there may be an infinity of degrees, al though for industrial purposes five varieties meet all the requirements. These are formed with two per oent. of phosphorous, two and a half per cent., three, three and a half and four; per cent. Above four phosphor bronze is useless, but between tbree and fonr Bper to be supeiior The price of phosphor bronzo, unworked, should not ex ceed that of copper more than ten per cent. With regard to the patents which have been taken out for tho manufacture, it may be re marked that phosphor bronze and its use as a compound dates far anterior to both, tbe Amer ican anil .European pateuis. isotu tne cold small, however.

A Stupendous Work. Tho international comniitteo on tho con struction of the submarine tunnel between France and England having reported the en tire feasibility of tbo project, it is probable that the work of tunnelling uuder tbo Straits of Dover will be commenced at once, and puxlird forward vigorously to completion. Tho suc cessful construction of this mighty work will not only bo a triumph of engineering skill but will tend larpely to cement peaceful relatious between the twonatlous, lucreaso business, and will iu tbo end, no doubt, prove a pioQtable in vestment to capitalists engoging in it. A con temporary calculates that over a million trav elers will annually pass through it on the oars, estimating them by tho number that now yearly embark at Calais, Dieppe, Boulogne, ; Havre, etc., most of whom would prefer tbo tuunel. I day. Cold phospborizatiou is described in tbe following: "Clean copper, held in the vapors of phosporus, is successfully hardened." Years ac.o iu our metallurgical practico, says Mines, Metals and Arts, we made phosphorites of copper, lead and tin, and arsono-phosphidea of copper and antimony, both by melting the metals, and also from tho ores. The author cited above, says, (page 430) " Fhoephorus combines readily with most of the metals, and adheres tenaciously to them." We may reasonably expect phosphorus in anv metal which is smelted in the presence of phos phoric acid ana caruon ami Hydrogen, there fore tho presence of bone, or bone ashes, in an ore or iu a slag, will cause the metal to con tain phosphorus. The best means for forming a phoHf buret, is to heat a phosphate in the preseuco of carbon. Phosphorus is more easily oxidized than sulphur, and combines In this condition readily with the alkali uo earths. We may, therefore, by these means, remove phos phorus. It also causes metals to be very fusible, more so than any other mibstauco, but dis poses them to be brittle wheu cold." Fhkk from Pkuiunk. Dr. K. Mongrand writes to the Societe d' Acclimatization that he has carefully studied the life history of fifty grammes of eggs of tho Yama Mai (Japanese oak silk worm).
