Paxton, (blind,) Westmoreland, for flower vases, card basket, reticule, made of beads, and child's knit garment and tidy, $3.

C. S. Brewster, Geddes, exhibited a barrel of solar salt, of the first quality, and, in the opinion of the committee, equal if not superior to any made in this country, or in Europe, Silver Medal. Lambert's Fictorial Anatomy, Transactions.

A specimen of Compound Rail for Railroads, offered by John F. Winslow, Troy, from the Mount Savage Works, Maryland, Silver Medal. This rail, by being compounded of two parts divided vertically, allows the joining to break joints, whereby it becomes a continuous rail, doing away with the plating and battering of the joint on the old rail, and admits a great saving in castings and fastenings at the joints, spiking down being entirely sufficient; and is found in use to cause a great saving in the wear and tear in machinery and the repairs of the track.

Specimens of American Blister and Cast Steel, exhibited by Dr. George H. Smith, manufactured by Dr. Smith and Dr. A. K. Eaton, Rochester, by their newly discovered process by which the time, and consequently the expense required, is very greatly reduced. The quality, particularly of the cast steel, after subjection to the most severe tests both as to strength and hardness, (as in turning chilled iron) and in the finest cutting edge, has been found to be unsurpassed. Whenever tried it has been admitted to be equal or superior to any hitherto used.

Mr. E. Phiney presented a large cube of Anthracite Coal weighing 2,200 lbs., from the Diamond Mine, Lackawana, Penn., owned by the Lackawana & Western Railroad Company. It is a beautiful specimen of that article, and it is thought, will compare with

the Lehigh varieties. It is situated on a direct railroad route from Rochester to the Mines, and can be afforded there for a trifle less than $5.00, or at Ithaca for $3.95 per ton, Silver Medal.

PAYENIZING TIMBER.

Committee-Hon. Daniel Lee, Ch'n, C. Dewey, E. W. Leavenworth. Wood is exposed to two natural forms of decay, called the dry rot and the wet. To counteract the operation of the causes tending to either or to both of these, has long been a great desideratum ; scientific men have labored on this object, and various methods have been proposed. The introduction of some of the salts which were designed to have a specific action on the ligneous tissue, has been the prominent plan, but as this must be done by the use of aqueous solutions, an exposure to water and the action even of moist air, would slowly and surely remove the salt from the wood. To the use of common salt, acetate of iron, and even of corrosive sublimate, as in the Kyanizing process, this difficulty proved insuperable.

The Payenizing process is a vast improvement upon all the past, and may ultimately realize all the advantages to be expected from such appliances. This process is purely chemical and involves a principle not before introduced. It is this, one salt, as copperas, is introduced into the pores of the wood, as before; then another salt as muriate of lime (chloride of calcium) is injected in the
