It certainly looks like it, if we consider the evidence adduced by a correspondent of a French journal, who has been dip- ping into the “Tales of Mystery and Imagination.’ The passage upon which this gentleman rests Poe's claims is contained in ‘‘The Unparalleled Adven- ture of One Hans Pfaall’ It is worth while quoting it in fail: . “I then took opportunities of convey- | ing by night to a retired situation east | to | contain about 50 gallons each, and mo | six tin tubes 8 juches | in diameter, properly shaped and 10 of Rotterdam fivesiron bound casks, of a larger size; feet in length; a quantity of a particu- lar metallic substance, or semimetal, which I shall not name, and a dozen demijohns of a very ogmman acid. The gas to be formed from thesé latter ma- terials is a gas never yet generated by any other person than myself—or at least applied to any similar purpose. 1 can only venture to say here that it is a constituent of azote (nitrogen), so long considered irreducible, and that its * density is about 37.4 times less than of | hydrogen. It is tasteless, but not odor- less; burns, when pure, with a greenish flame and is instantaneously fatal to animal life. Its full secret I would “make no difficulty in disclosing, but - that it of right belongs to s citizen of Nantes, in France, ditionally communicated to myself." It must be confessed that the mysteri- ous gas evolved by the force of Poe's imagination has not a little in commen with the argon, whose acquaintance we ‘are now privileged to make some 50 .years later. The ‘‘particnjar metallic substance or semimetal,’’ used by Hans Pfaall, has its fellow in clevite, from which we have been led to understand argon has been extracted when treated with an acid, after the manner of the weracious Dutch balloonist. If the new | gas is not precisely regarded as ‘‘a con- stitnent of nitrogen,’’ it has at least been declared by some to be an allotrop- jo modification of it. No doubt the phys: jeal and chemical qualities of Edger Allan Poe’s gas are not exactly those of argon. But what of that? Instead, for - example, of being 87 times lighter than ‘hydrogen, argon, we anderstand, is very much heavier. It mnst be remembered, however, that Hans Pfaall had to make a journey to the moon. Had his gas been heavier, how could he have dropped a ‘couple of ballast bags on the head of Mynheer Superbus Van Underduk, and bave disappeared above the clouds al- ‘most before the worthy burgomaster had recovered himself? The romancer, even when he is a man of science, must surc- ly be allowed a little ‘latitude with his chemistry. — Westminster (tazntte. = | the same man a second time. k thonght,”’ nasiber are simple | o are attracted | wd, apd who can be readily | recognize a by theif indifferent and gap- | by whom it was con- PROMPTLY ANSWERED. | Gemetal Ryan's Conundrem Didnt Yiother Eo the Irishman For a Moment, { Owe of General Ryan's peenlinrities | is that he never tells the samé story to Nat long | ago he was talking about his travels in i the United Kingdom. ‘I had said he, “that | Irish wit and repartee were only | fomnd om the stage or in Levers nr {but 1 came away from Ireland wn | very different en. “Iwas stopping ‘at a fun, and a game of o 31 Dress.
