The first experiment under tblt bead waa to prove that the lightning passes through the too uuctor; without harm to either the conductor or surrounding objects, to the ground, and thence away. Here the Professor remarked that no experiments were so uncertain in their resuita as experiments with electricity, and that the audience must consequently overlook any want of success. This caution, however, unnecessary, at the first experiment proved ft' complete sacoess. A "Leydeu jar" wasckarged at the electric machine, nd then placed upon a table. To Professor then brought near it a small baliof cotton, faateued npon the extremity of a we tat rod, the cotton being previously sprinkled with pulverised rosin.
