Butcommercially it is required to ascertain the proportions of cane sugar, uncrystaUizable sugar,water and impurities, and this is accomplished most successfully by means of the polarizingsaecharometer proposed by Biot and improved by Solcil. The following is a description ofthis beautiful instrument:—Two tubular parts, t t, and t T\fi(/s. 627 and GiS, constitute. tlie principal part of the s iccharometcr. The light enters v, tln-ough a Xicols prism q,shown separately, fiff. 627, at o, and passes tirst an achromatic polarizing prism p, andshown separately at i and afterwards through a plate of quartz of double rotation at p\which is also shown at (j. This plate is composed of two semi-discs cut pori)endicularly tothe of crystallization ; but, though exactly of ccpial thickness and equal rotating power,the one turns the ray to the right, while the other turns it to the left. At y/, the ray passesa plate of quartz of single rotation, and at / l\ two wedges of quartz endued with the i)owerof rotation, but in a contrary direction to the preceding plate. These two wedges are againrepresented in a, and arc so made that by turning the milled head n, the sum of their thick-ness can be increased or diminished at ple
