'' incur a penalty of tweiilyllve dollars, and for any serovided with three square holes, one in the centre, five-tenths by four-tenths of an inch, and two smaller ones, thrce-tenthf- by two-tenths of an inch, close to the sides and opposite each other. These three holes may be closed and uncovered by means of a slid(! moving in grooves, and having perforations corresponding to those on the lid. In moving the slide so as to uncover the holes, the oscil- lating lamp is caught by a pin fixed in the slide, and tilted in such a way as to bring the end of the spout just below the surface of the lid Upon the .slide being pn.shed back so as to cover the holes, the lamp returns to its original posi- tion. Upon the cover, in front of and in line with the mouth of the lamp, is fixed a white bead, the dimensions of which rej)rcseut the size of the test flame to be used. The bath or heated vessel consists of two flat-bottomed copper cylinders (24 B.W.G.;,an inner one of three inches in diameter and two and one-half inches in height, and an outer one of five and one-half inches in diameter and five and three-quarter inches in height; they are soldered to a cir- cular copper plate (20 B.W.U.) perforated in the centre, w hich forms the top of the bath, in such a manner as to enclose the space bet ween the two cylinders, but leaving access to the inner cylinder. The top of the bath nrojecls both out- wards and inwards about three-eighths of an inch ; that is, its diameter is about thre(> fourths of an inch greater than that of the body ol the bath, while the diameter of the circular open- ing in the centre is about th(! same amount less than that of th« inner cylinder. To the inner | rojeclion of the top is fastened, by six small screws, a Hat ring of ebonite, the screws being sunk below thi! surface of the ebonite, to avoid metallic contact between the l);itli and the oil cup The exact distance between the sides and l)ott(ini of the inner cylinder and of the oil cup is one-half of an inch. A split socket similar to that on the cover of the oil cup, but set at a right angle, allows a thermometer to be inserted into Die space between the two cylinders. The bath is further provided with a funnel, au overilow pipe, aud two loop handles. 24 The bath rests upon a tripod stainl, to tlu' riiiy- of which is attached a copper cylinder or jacket (2-1 I'.AV'.d.) Ilniij^cd at the top, and of such dimensions lliat tiic l)alh, while lirmly resting on the ring, just touches with its project- ing top the inward-turned llange. The diameter of this outer jacket is six and one-half inches. One of the three legs of the stand serves as supiwrt for the spirit lamp attached to it by means of a small swing bracket. The dis- tance of the wick holder from the bottom of the bath is ono inch. Two thermometers are provided with the apparatus, the one for ascertaining the temperature of the l)ath, the other for determining the Hashing point. The thermometer lor ascertaining the temperature of the water has a long bulb and a space at the top. The scale (in degrees of Fahrenheit) is marked on the tube. It is fitted with a metal collar, fitting the socket, and the part of the tube below the collar should have a length of about three and one-half inches measured from the collar to the end of the bulb. The thermometer for ascertaining the temperature of the oil is fitted with collar and the scale is cut on the tube in a similar manner to the one described. It measirres from end of the collar to end of bulb two and one-quarter inches. Note. — A model api)aratus is deposited at the Weights and Measures branch of the Inland Revenue Department. Direclioni /or Applying the Flashing Test. 1. The test apparatus is to be placed for use in a position where it is not exposed to currents of air or draughts. 2. The heating vessel or water bath is filled by pouring water into the funnel until it begins to How out at the spout of the vessel. The temperatixre of the water at the com- mencement of the test is to be one hundred and forty degrees Fahrenheit, and this is attained in the first instance either by mixing hot and cold water in the bath, or in a vessel from which the bath is filled, until the thermometer which is provided for testing the temperature of the water gives the proper indication ; or by heating the water with the spirit lamp (which is attached to the stand of the apparatus) until the required temperature is indicated. If the water has been heated too highly, it is easily reduced to one hundred and forty degrees by pouring in cold water little by little (to replace a portion of the warm water) uufil the thermometer gives the proper reading. When a test has been completed, this water bath is again raised to one hundred and forty degrees by placing the lamp underneath, and the result is readily obtained while the petroleum cup is being emptied, cooled, and refilled with a fresh sample to l)e tested. The lamp is then turned on its swivel from under the apparatus, and the next test is proceeded with. 3. The test lamp is prepared lor irse by fitting it with a piece of flat plaited candle wick, and filling it with colza or rape or fine sperm oil up to the lower edge of the opening of the spout or wick tube. The lamp is trimmed so that when lighted it gives a flame of about fifteen hundredths of an inch in diameter, and this size of flame which is represented by the projecting white head on the cover of the oil cup is readily maintained by simple manipulation from time to time with a small wire trimmer. When gas is available it may be conveniently used in place of the little oil lamp, and for this purpose a test-flamo arraugemeut for use with gas may be substituted. 25 4. The bath having been niised to the proper temparatur>', the oil to be tested is introdiiecd into the jxHrolcuin cup, being poured in slowly until the level of the licjuid just reaehes the point ol' the .gauge \vhi(;h is lixod in the <;up. In warm weather the lenii)eniture of the room in which the samples to be tested have been ki'pt should be ()l)served in the lirst instance, and il' it exceeds sixty-live degrees the samples to be tested should ')e cooled down (to about sixty- five degrees) by iniini'rsing the bottles' containing them in cold water, or by any other convenient method, or it' tlw sample is much brlow that temperature, it should be raised so as not'to he l(!ss than sixty degrees ■ when phiced in the test cup. The lid of the cup, with the slide clo.sed, is then' putou, and the cup is placed into the bath or heating vessel. The thermometer in the lid of the cup has been adjusted so as to have its bitlb just immersed in the liquid, and its position is not under any circumstances to be altered When the cup has been placed in the proper position, the scale of the thermometer faces the operator. 5. The test lamp is then placed in position upon the lid of the cup, a pendulum beating seconds or a lead or plumb lino mea.suring thirty-nine inches from its point of su.spen- sion (o the centre of tlu; i)lumb weight, fixed in a conve- nient iwsition in front of the operator, is set in motion, and the rise of the thermometer in the petroleum cup is waiched. When the temperature has reached about ninety degrees the operation of testing is to be commenced, the test-flame being applied once for every rise of one degree, in the followir.g manner : — The slide is slowly drawn open while the pendulum per- forms three oscillations, and is closed during the fourth oscil- lation.

[Assented to 2ht March, 1881.] WHEREAS doubts have arisen as to the true intent and meaning of the word "capital" in the eleventh sub- section of the seventeenth section of " The Consolidated Rail- wai/ Act, 1879," hereinafter called " The Railway Act," and it is expedient to remove such doubts : Therefore Her Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate and House of Commons of Canada, euacti as follows : — 1.
