SULPHUR, SELEXini, TF.LLtT.IUH, AND THEIR COM- I'uUNDS WITH OXYliEN AND HYDROGEX. I. Sulphuk, . . S= 16. Specific gravity of vapour at 8i4, . . . . 6.617 Specific gravity of vapour at 1800% . . . 2.219 Atomic volume at 824', Atomic volume at 1800, i NATIVE sulphur is a substance widely distributed in nature, occurring chiefly in volcanic districts, and in the strata with which gypsum is associated.

In the valleys of Noto and Mazzaro, in Sicily, it is found in great quantity, intermixed with clays containing gypsum, and it is from this locality that the greater part of the sulphur found in commerce is still derived. From the metallic sulphides, particularly iron pyrites, FeSo, it admits of being extracted; but thus obtained, it is of inferior value, in consequence of containing arsenic, an impurity neverfound in the Sicilian sulphur. The bisulphide is heated in conical clay tubes, set with a slope towards the smaller ends, which project some distance from the furnace, and are furnished with eduction gutters which allow the liberated sulphur to flow off in the melted state into water. The pyrites in 100 parts includes 53.33 of sulphur, and of this one- fourth is expelled, which corresponds to half an atom of sulphur. By raising the heat the product might be doubled; but the residual sulphide, FeS, would molt...
