Factory and industrial management . erranean workings, by embracing the numerous detachedvillas of Herculaneum, will eventually cover so extensive an areathat one of the most essential provisions of the engineering faculty willbe the installation of a suitable and effective system of mephitic vapors from continuing sources are encountered—a condition of affairs which there is no reason to apprehend—such asystem of ventilation is expected to be attained in a natural and inex-pensive way. A continuous draft of fresh and invigorating air fromthe sea is expected to find its way to the shafts; and this draft can bediverted at pleasure to any desired part of the openings. Provision ismade in the working plan for a cheap and effective device to overcomeany interruption that may occur to the natural draft. A small fire de-partment, with installation of running water, hose pipes, ladders, andhand implements, completes this interesting plan for the excavationand exhibition of the buried city of GENERAL VIEW OF THE SANDVIKEN IRON WORKS. MINING AND INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS IN SWEDEN. By John Geo. Leigh. In a preceding article Mr. L>igh reviewed broadly the principal mining, mechanical andgeneral engineering uudenakings or projects now receiving attention in Sweden. Thepresent paper is concerned chiefly v/ith the individual characteristics and equipment ofthe leading establishments.—Thf Editors. AS indicated in the preceding article, the countries with whichSweden has the largest commercial intercourse are theUnited Kingdom and Germany. In each case, indeed, thetrade is more considerable than appears from official statistics, forthere can be no doubt that a not insignificant percentage of productsshipped to Denmark, and consequently classed as exports to that coun-try, are in reality destined for England or Germany.
