A bill is before the legislature of Quebec which is intended to give power to mnni- I cipalitiea to grant exemption from taxation to any manufacturers establishing new busisnesaes and to the workmen employed in such manufactories for a term of years. On strict examination and on theoretical grounds merely the plan no doubt is at fault in that all have an equal duty to bear their share of taxation; but when there is an object to gain, and the members of a town corporation and the electors are the judges of the importance of this. and who, we may be sure, will not abuse the power placed in their hands, then such provisions of legislation become etfcctive means ot encouraging manufactures. A law some- what similar to the one proposed in Quebec isin operation in Ontario, where it is ac- cepted aa a useful piece of legislation. The sister province of Quebec is believed by many to be peculiarly adapted to be the seat of manufactures. There is water power _in abundance, a numerous population cut 06' from agricultural employment during the long months of winter, at which time also internal navigation is brought to a standstill and a large body of men are ren- dcred idle. To give protable employment to these men manufactures are needed, which should be established and favoured in all suitable localities. I -_--r. English and Canadian Blankets from $2 to $10 per pair.

All the virulent acids nnd insoluble. gnaw away any straining vessel, we put into glass recepta- cles, sure that they will stay there without misch ef. Now, in the first place, it is not literally true that common glass is complete- ly insoluble; by continous boiling, chemists have succeeded in getting pure water to dis- solve a small percentage of it, but the quan- tity is very small and the process very troublesome. But by slightly chang`-ng the component elements of the glass, making it more alkaline, that is, putting in more soda and potash, we get a substance which has many of the properties of glass, along with otliets which seem quite inconsistent with 3 all our notions. Principal among these is its solubility, or capacity of being dissolved or boiled down with water to a limpid uid. n syrup, ajelly, or a paste, according to the agiount of water and the material employ- e . And so we get to water glass, or soluble silicate. What renders this compound es- pecially useful is its quality of drying and hardening by heat or exposure to the air, thereby regaining its glassy qualities, and :1 hardness such that one kind, to use Mr l"eucbtwan;:er's words, assumes it vitreous and conchoidal fracture, and a hardness such as to give sparksaon steel, without the brit- tleness of int. Its id form allows of its being applied as a paint or varnish for numberless purposes of use or beauty. Thus the author speaks of employing it insteaol ordinary paint for covering the guns, and other iron objects at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. \Vuod, having absorbed a suicient quantity of the stuff. becomes harder and more durable, and interesting experiments have been made in railroads with prepared wooden rails instead of iron; while for fence posts, railroad sleepers, wharf piles, and endless other purposes where wood is exposed to decay, the use of wood saturated with glass is of immense advantage. It is known that silica. is to he treated ma I [g= CHEAPER THAN icumpxasr, _ mm glass IE or immense advantage. known that silica is to he treated as an acid, and a peculiarity of alkalies is that the more potent and biting of them take acids from their weaker brethren when the three are brought. together. Thus when we mix the silicate of potassa or soda. with lime, the lime takes up a quantity of silica and forms a silicate of lime, which is nearly or quite insoluble. Thus with sand, lime. and water glass, we get a hard, durable stone, proof against weather and atmosphere, re and water. The mass is of course uas y when rst manufactured, and may he moulded and worked like so much putty. So here we have a splendid future in the fabrication of tiles, building blocks, archi- tectural mouldings and ornaments, statues, vessels, linings of cisterns, and a thousand other matters, of use and of beauty. By using an admixture of alumina or clay, we get a so-called hydraulic cement, or one which hardens under water. The interest excited by the diamond dis- coveries in South Africa is likely to be largely increased by the favourable report of D.-. Ehuw. After a survey of the ezrire Veal region, he concludes that the soil rich- est in precious stones has hitherto been un- touched. As yet the diggers have chiey 0c cupied themselves with sifting the alluvial gravel, which, by s succession of strange geological changes, has been deposited on the summits of the Kopjes and in the cre- vices between the basaltic boulders. In the valleys there is s. considerable accumulation of sand above the gravel, and its removal in- volves more labour than the diggers care to expend at present; but in time this will be done, and the bed of the stream diverted from its usual channel. Here, in the opin- ion of Dr. Shaw, "a superior diamondiferous gravel will be worked.
