Chloride of Lime as a DiMnfcctant.
Chloride of lime has long ben used a n A
infectnnt, on Recount ol lU cheapness aiu Its
superior eflicacj. No other article can h had
in uflicient quantities t be substituted for it.
Permanpanate ol potatat one of the best dis
infectants we have; but its high price would
effectually preclude iti application by the ton;
'phenlc acid and phenate ol lime are also excel
lent for some pui poses, but must alwa8 remain
dear; and there are numerous other compounds
of Talueina small way, but none ol them can
replace the chloride ot lime.
The action ol chloride of lime as a disinfectant
is not irenerally understood. Strictly speaking,
bleaching and dislntectins; are one and the same
thinp. In bleachme. the coloring mutter is de
composed by the chlorine; the hydroiren of the
color either combining with the chlorine t. form
hydrochloric acid, or Koing to the oxycea to
form water. In the proce?s of disinfecting, the
bjdroecu of the bad pises is at once seized upon
by the chlorine, or bv the ozoue, and the odor
is thus destroyed. The operation is Identically
the same as in bleaching. The only difference
is that in the one cane the hydrogen of the color
is removed, and in the other the hydrogen ol the
dor.
It Is probably true that all substances which
bleach will also di.siniect; yet there aro sun
stances which will disiniect wnicn will not
bleach, but these compounds are no', properly
speaking, disiniectanrs. They accoinphih their
work rueativelv operaung as preventives
rather than as cures. This distinction oui?ht to
be understood to prevent mistakes. For exam
ple, creosote retards the decay ot many organic
substances, and so do alcohol, glycerine, puemc
acid, etc., and thus they may be said to disin
iect; but it the bud ga-u'8 have begun to arise
they would not prove edicient. They cannot
destroy what has already been created. In the
practce of medicine U is necessary to suit the
remedvtothe disease, and the smite is true in
'.ho application ol disinfectants; but lu the lat
ter cae the range of evil is not so great. The
fir-t is a question ot medical practice; the lat
ter, one of chemical reliction. Wtiere ammonia
Is evolved, Baits ol iron can be used, but chlo
ride ot lime can also be applied; and there are
very lew itrtancps where chlorine will not ac
complish the result better than any other agent.
In the use of chloride of lime, care should be
taken not to have too much of It in coniined
anartmentu. and purchasers should beware ot
old stock which lias lost its virtue from long
storage. Not anticipating an unusual demand,
the English manufacturers have coniined their
production of this article to their own wants,
and there is a likelihood ot a limited supply for
a short time. This Is unfortunate, for this city
alone will require more than live hundred casks,
and Southern and Western cilies will be large
consumers during the coming summer. We
dare sny that the Board of Health appreciate
the importance ol securing an ample supply
before the price is run up by speculators to un
usual figures; and private citizens can also
avoid the inevitable rise by promptly securing
all that they may require during the summer.
The powders must be kept in closed vessels, and
tised in moderate quantities. Too much chlorine
is highly deleterious, and may occasion diseases
of the throat and a permanent cold. Ou this
account it is often wise to have some other well
recommended disinli ctaat to be employed wtiere
chlorine would prove inconvenient.
The cheapest and best remedy of all Is perfect
cleanliness. There will then be nothing to dis
infect, and oi.ly wa.er will bo in demand. N.
Y. Evening Jfost.
Phenic Acid as a Disinfectant.
At a recent meeting of the Agricultural Society
ol France, M. Chevreul showed that phenic acid
is not a disinfectant in the same degree as chlo
rine, but that it prevents the decomposition ot
bodies with which it is brought in contact. Ex
tensive use is made of this material to destroy
the odor of stables. A white powder, consisting
of a mixture of phenate ot lime and sulphite of
soda is prepared and sold for the purpose. One
quarter of an ounce a day to each horse,
sprinkled in the stalls, is sufficient to totally
destroy the odor of the place. In England the
cost per head does not exceed two dollars a
year, its employment ou board of vessels or
cars used tor the transportation of animals
would prove of the utmost value, and in some
countries is largely practised.
M. Lcmaire has shown that a small quantity
of pheuic acid, benzine, aud analine suffices to
destroy microphytes and a large number of ani
mals belonging to the radiata, insects, mollusks,
and vertebrata; In lact. all of the lower animals
fly from the odor of these substances. An
aqueous solution containing one per cent, of
phenic acid instantly destroys the itch Insect.
In the case of insects destructive to vegetation
it cannot be employed upon the leaves, as it de
stroys both the plant and the animal at the
same time, but mixed with coal-tar, earth, and
sand, it can be applied some distance from the
root".
When phenic acid is introduced into the earth
or a heap ot manure, animals which appeared
to be devoid of animation suddenly wake up
and disappear with marvellous rapidity, and by
impregnating the air of a granary or magazine
in which wheat or meat is kept, all insects are
excluded. The odor of the acid disappears very
rapidly on exposure of the grain or meat to the
air, so that no trace of it remains. It thus ap
pears that lor stables, granaries, magazines,
and all places liable to be infested by insects or
lower animals, phenic acid is one of the safest
and most economical of the remedies hitherto
proposed. The bUu'phide ot carbon, which
has very similar effects upon animal life, is
itself so disgusting as to preclude its use near
human habitations. It has, however, been ex
tensively employed in granaries to destroy the
weevil, and tor the vaporizing of seed previous
to sowing.
Benzole, benzine, coal naptha, coal tar, some
varieties of petroleum, and the products of the
distillation of pit coal, gum benzoin, and of
some kinds of rosin, yield phenic acid in greater
or less quantities. The valuo 01 coal tar as a
disinfectant can be traced to this souree. Phenic
acid Is sometimes called carbolic acid, hydrate
of phenyl and phenol. It is capable of very
extensive application, and may be produced
cheaply.
Co lieu grounds have also a dlsiafecting pro
perty, and have long been used in the sick room
and lor the purification of the air of hospitals.
Whether the oil of wiutergrecn would destroy
the larva! of insects Las never been observed,
but as the distillation of this class of bodies
fields phenic acid, it would be worthy of a trial,
t may be that destructive distillation is neces
sary in order to prepare the peculiar principle
bo obnoxious to the lower animals.
NItro-Glycerlne Mr. Nobel's Experiments.
Mr. Nobel, who name has been frequently
alluded to of late in connection with nitro-giy-cenne.
made a number ot experiments on Friday
with that destructive agent in the presence of
several gentlemen, in a quarry near Eighty-third
street, between Eighth and Nicth avenues. Per
haps no manufacture of modern days ha so
suddenly risen into notoriety as nitro-glycerine,
but, unfortunately, that notoriety has been at
tended with circumstance! painful in the recol
lection of the public. The object of Friday's
experiments was to test the force and
power of nltro-glvcerine when exploded in
open or confuif d spaces. Mr. Nobel states that
the article can be rendered inexplosive by in
troducing into il spirits of wood. That when it
is necessary to bring out the lull strength of its
destructive properties, some water only is re
quired to be added, aud that, with precaution,
it may be carried Hbout or stored with perfect
safety. This statement, on the partof Mr. Nobel
cannot be received as correct in toco of tho facts
that have transpired in relation to the terrible
explosion on beard the European, at Aspinwall,
aud we believe it will be a long t me before the
community can indulge in the belief that nitro
glycerine is an article that may , be as safely
packed in our stores and warehouses as paper or
dry goods.
Air. Nobel commenced his experiments by
throwing a small quantity of the glycerine on a
, piece oturon aud striking it with a hammer.
The glvcirine exploded only at the point of con-
1 tact. The report was louder than thatot a mus
ket. He then placed some glycerine in a vial,
and packed it into a small wooden box tilled
'with sawdust, lie introduced into the box a
fuse, to one end of which was attached a copper
percussion cap, tilled with powder, and having
fired the lusc it burned into tho sawdu-t. Tnc
sawdust Ignited and produced a heat quite po
erlul enough to explode the glycerine, which it
did with a report almost as loud as that of a
small cannon. It is needless to say that the box
was blown into a thousand fragments. He applied
a lighted match to a small quantity of the
glycerine, which did not explode. This was for
the purpose of showing that the article is not
dangerous unless very strong heat Is used. Ac
cording to his own experiments, Mr. Nobel has
proved that It Is highly destructive and danger
ous, If struck with lorce. The concluding ex
periments consisted of the blasting of two rocks,
wh eh was effected apparently to the satisfac
tion of Mr. Nobel's friends. In one inbtance,
splinters were le.bed high into the nlr, and. in
another, the rut it into w hich a holo six feet
had been bored, charged with about a pound
and a half ot the glyceriuo was broken up into
several piece, some of which were forced Into
a skyward flight. No accident occurred, and the.
experiments were, brought to a close at half-poist
five o'clock, hav ing lasted about two hours.
