Hitherto,\nit has been thought that mercury was\nan unalterable piemeni.\nExperiments with a so-called electric arc furnace filled with mercury,\naccording to Dr. Meithc, destroyed the\nintrinsic stability of the mercury ancl\nby a slow process caused its partial\ndecomposition into gold.\nAlthough Pro!
