. The work and position of the metallurgical chemist; also references to Sheffield and its place in metallurgy . The Royal Institution Laboratory, showing Faraday at work. Plate Faraday lecturing before H. the Prince Consort, December 27th, 1855. on reaching its portals was astonished to find a pleasant sub-tropical climate, as Sir James had instituted there his liquid airplant, and there Avas also a choice of well-cooled drinks in Dewarsilvered vacuum flasks. As Dixon says, even if Dewar has notreached the absolute zero, he has himself hewn the only way bywhich the Nadir of Temperature can be reached, and he hasapproached it near enough to point out the chief landmarks ofthat region where Chemical Action and Electrical Resistancedisappear. Such a record is one with which the successor ofDavy and Faraday may rest well satisfied. It may be of interest to refer to this historic building whereDewar works, the Royal Institution, Albemarle Street, London,founded by Rumford in 1799, where some of our greatest menhave for very little stipend given their lifes work to Scientificeducation, and where the permanent Lecturers have been notonly of national but interna
