The name of the chemical agent ammonia date* tuck to mnotc antiquity. In Europe the chief source of the supply of nnimunia up to the latter part of the last century was Egypt. It was made originally from raun-r* dang collected in lie- ueightairboal of the temple of Jupiter Ammon, heiico the uauiu ammonia. Tlie dnqqiing* wen- collected in March and April hy AralK, then dried and burned ami tin- soot collected. Thi* was Bold to tiien-haiits, apd ammonia was collided from the soot by a chemical prucM*. It is now almost entirely inadu from erode gas liquor in illuminating gas inaiinfacturie*. Only half as lunch ammonia is made in smnmcr as in win-, ter. Hence ammonia is always more costly in summer. Furthermore, ammonia is rxtomdvrly Used in the manufacture of artificial ice.—New York Hon.

The number of lunatics in the asylums of the city of Berlin, which wa* 1.382 in UB2-8S, amounted to 2,528 in 1889.

In the period referred to tho increase in the population was 22.40 per cent-, while the increase in the number of lunatics was 50.79 per cent. The number of insane persons in confinement in the whole German empire rose between Jan. t, 1881, and the same date in 188G, from 34,270 to 42.600, bring an increase of 24.5 in the fire years, as against an increase of 3.0 per cent, in the general gipulation in the same period.—Chicago
