3IEERSCHA VM AND AMBER.
Meerschaum Las been supposed by many to
te Bea foam, irom its lightness and whittoh ap
pearance. Ita name, too, gives the same Im
pression. It Is, however, a kind of claj, com
posed of hydrate of magnesia, combined with
Bilex or flint. It is found in different parts of
Europe, in Spain, and in the several countries
at the head of the Mediterranean. It also
abounda in large quantities in Natalia. It is
generally found in the forms of veins in ser
pentine and also in tertiary deposits. It has
also been found iu Asia Miuor in alluvium, ap
parently the result of the icouiponitiou of
carbonate of magnesia belonging to neighbor
ing serpentine rocks. It is largely collected
there for the manufacture of cigar-tubes and
pipes, the town of Kouii h furnishing the prin
eipal supplies. When first taken out of the
earth it is soft, and makes lather like soap,
and from this latter ciroumstauce it is often
used for washing by those who live in
places where it is obtained. When exported
it is roughly bew into blocks, and some
times into rude pipe shapes, and freed
as far as practicable from the associated mine
rals which impair its juality by interfering
with the carving and smoothing of its surface.
I'eBth and Vienna were at one time famed for
the manufacture of meerschaum pipes and
tubes, but other places now equal them. Many
of these wares are very handsome, aud cost
large sums of money. The fine yellow and
brown colors which are so much admired in
the pipes, and which can only be produced
after long smoking, are caused from the fact
that the meerschaum is kept for some time in
a mixture of wax and fatty matter. A portion
of these is absorbed, and being subsequently
acted upon by the heat and tobacco fumes,
assumes various shades of color. The lichtest
qualities are generally too porous to produce
the best pipes, and the heaviest are generally
rejected from suspicion of their being artificial
produots. Th artificial pipes are made from
the pariBgs of the genuine material, whioh,
being reduced to fine powder, in boiled in water
and moulded in blocks, sometimes with the
addition of clay. After drying and contract
ing they are ready for the carver.
This kind is known as "Massakiipfa," or
Massa bowls. The value of pipes and cigar
tubes imported into the United States in 1858
amounted to $1100,000. A recent publication
eays:
"The best and purcHt meerschaum bears a
bluish tin se, and lis Niirfnue In covered wllh
very small slur-shaped flecks. This klud, how
ever, is seldom seen lu this country. Denomi
nating this as tiieliit quality, there are several
Inferior qualities, eacu dltferent from the
others, yet genuine meerschaum. A pecu
liarity of the first quality is its capability of
receiving a high polish, aud having a perfectly
even nnd smooth surface, aud coloring evenly
throughout, whence it Is termed 'Hplegel
Meerschaum,' tpiegel being the German word
for mirror. The high price or this grade has for
some lime prevented its general use lu this
country, but as this firm imports it iu the
rough, and work it themselves, they have of
late ovorcome this objection to a great extent.
The reason lor boiling meerschaum, bo unin
telligible to most people, is very easily ex
plained, hike nlf varieties of clay, meer
schaum when exposed to air becomes dry and
hard, in which condition it never would ab
sorb the nicotine, or oil of tobacco, which gives
It tLe rich color that smokers so highly prize.
When boiled in oil or wax, the particles of clay
are forced opnrt by the heat, and tho oil or wax
introducing llktlf between them, retains lis
position uiou cooliDg. Aguln. when the plpo
is heated by smoklig, tho particles of tho
meerschaum eepuinte, the oil or wax becoming
melted exudes, and the nicotine takns its
place, end Imparts its own rich color. This In
the philosophy of what Is popular.'y termed
'coloring a meerschaum.' "
It may here be added that a meerschaum
cannot be polished until it has been boiled.
This firm also give some good rules for color
ing piiea. Till the pipe loosely at the start,
and only half full, smoke slowly, the object
being to keep the pipe as cool as possible
under the circumstances. Do not allow it to
cool too rapidly after smoking. Never cover
a pipo, because the oil that exudes from the
meerschaum will be absorbed by the material
of which the cover is composed, and the result
will be blotches on the pipe.
Lightness of weight or ability to float in
water are not tests of genuine meerschaum.
The difference, however, between the bogus
and the genuine is apparent when the pipe is
heated: the imitation being unable to expand
or contract uniformly, cracks when heated,
and the oil or wax in it not being equally ab
sorbed, slowly burns, and in burning emits a
most offensive smell, Probably no mineral
substance presents features of interest so
peculiar aa does amber. Obscure in its origin,
found in loose pieces in alluvial deposits, or
scattered along the coast after severe storm3
Lad swept the bottom of the Sea, it was re
garded by the ancient Greeks and Romans
with superstition and mystery. They coa
sidered that this substance, clear and trans
parent, was beautiful tear drops, shed by the
sisters or l'haaou, ana petunea as tney ieu
into the sea, and the electrical phenomenon
exhibited by this substance added to its mys
tery. It was even believed by some of the
philoFophers to be ponpessed of a soul. It
was believed by others to be the tear drops of
seabirdB, and in a couple of lines by an old
poet, the hero is made to say to his lady love,
that, if she accept his suit,
'Around her shall glisten the loveliest amber
'That ever the sorrowing sea bird has wopt."
The Arabs, noticing the electrical pheno
mena, gave it the name, in their language, of
"Aarube," or catch-chaff. And now when its
mystery and obscurity have departed before
the light of science, it must still be regarded
with peculiar interest for its singular history
and qualities. Amber is now generally under
stood to be a fossilized vegetable gum. The
trees from which it exuded stood iu forests of
past epochs, and are now found forming strata
of bituminous wood beneath beds of sand and
clay. The wood is more or less impregnated
with the amber; and this is also met with de
pending from the trunks in the form of stalac
tites, and again in rounded pieces, mixed with
pyrites and coarse sand, under the layer of
trees. Such a bed is worked as a mine for the
amber near the coast of Prussia. The fossil
stratum is from forty to fifty feet thick,
and is followed to the depth of 100
Jeet below the surface. In some other
countries it is found in beds of brown coal and
of lignite, aud it is probable that the pieces of
it picked up on the sea Ehores have been
washed out from the extension of these repo
sitories beneath the waters of the sea. On
the Prussian coast of the Baltic, between
Konigsberg and Memel, amber is more abund
ant than at any other known locality, and it
j. from this source that the Mohammedan
-countries are principally supplied. Amber
Las for ages been used for ornaments, such as
necklaces, bracelets, and breastpins. In
Kurope the cloudy or milky amber is considered
the finest. Amber is divided into two kinds,
I'leisen and Krd lit.rin.hein. The former is
found in the water. The latter is obtained in
mines, and is connilered the most valuable,
lxjiug harder and clearer. Its value as mouth
pieces all smokers can appreciate, and iu Tur
key as high as 2000 Lave been paid for one.
Messrs. Kaldenberg U Hon Imported the
largest piece of amber ever seen in this coun
try, and manufactured it into an entire pipe f
No. & London, beud Size, and whJoU is now
on exhibition In Taria. It is rarely, however,
the case that a piece so large as this can be
found. At present the chief atnW diggings
in the North of Prussia are near New Kuhren,
Urusterort, Lapohnen, and Hansohen. The
fishing and picking of amber from the sea
gives employment to large numbers of per
sons. After a storm, when the waves are
going down, the men wade out and get the
seaweed which is borne in from the waves, and
from it the women and children pick the pieces
ofamlwr. This mode of procuring it is less
laborious and often more productive than
digging it. Amber is not only used for pipes
and ornaments, but a find varnish is made
from it; also an oil nsed in medicine, and suc
cinic acid, a useful reagent in chemical in
vestigations. The largest piece of amber known is one of
eighteen pounds weight, now in the roral
cabinet at Berlin. It was found in Lithuania,
twelve miles back from the Baltic. A piooe of
amber of a pound weight is worth about if.r0,
and to such a degree is electricity exoited from
it in the process of working it, that the work
men are often affected with nervous tremors,
and often have to change the pieces they handle
that the excited electricity may be dispr.sd.
Amber is also found in some localities in this
country; the principal pointB beim? Amboy,
New Jersey, Oay Head on Martha's Vineyard,
and Cape Sable in Maryland.
