The first practical trial of the bydraatin working gear trok place at Gibral- tar on 10th May, when the gun in the Napier of Magdala Battery was dred experimentally under the superintendence of Major A. W. Whita, Royal Artiliery, and Major J. English, Royal Engineers, who were sont from England to re- port on matters connected with those guns, Those offers represented respectively the Do- partment of the Director of Artillery, and that of the Inspector-General of Fortunations. Five rounds were fired, the Erst one with a blank charge only, and the remainder with Palliser projectilan weighing 2,000 fbs. each, the charges increasing gradually till the maximum of 450 lbs. privaatio powder was reached. The gun was quita under contral, bat some defects were stiuable in the loading apparatus. The affect of the con- cassion on the neighbonzing houses was trifling. The newest addition to our already pretty long list of intoxicating drinks is spelen brandy. M Lavat, a French chemist, is said to have succeed. ed in causing that watery fruit to yield a potent spirit. He took the juice of six pounds of water- riclon pulp, and, having added a certain quantity of free sulphuric asid, he warmed the mixtaré, upon which the sugar became transformed into a mixture of glucose and levulose. This product, which fermonts directly, yielded to quaris uf perfectly normal alcohol. A rain surumer often renders this fruit so watory as to have large quantities of it mysold on the hands of the melon- growers in the moist and fertile valleys of France; and it is by no means improbable that they may be able to turn M. Lerat's dis- opvery to practical account. The number of potart and ednetivo liquids of an intoxicating aracter which are capable of being extreetod from fruits and vogatubias soms endless; while no one edems able to hit upon a temperance drink that is even palatable.
