     summary: The quantity of silver contained in sea water is very small indeed. Using this as a boiler, a pipe made of a pewter plate, and a wooden cask as a receiver, he set to work, filled the pot with sea water, put an ounce of soap therein to assist in purifying it, and placed it on the fire.

     summary: There is another little laughing Peake now, a boy at that, and at last accounts Darry--it is hard to call him by any other name--heard that he is destined to be christened Joseph Darry Peake. The three of them plunged into the bushes alongside the road, and were lost to sight, leaving Darry half sitting up on the road, plastered with mud, and ruefully surveying the strip of cloth in his hand.

     summary: Nothing so heavy as sea water, in those mighty shocks, those enormous falls of which sailors truthfully speak, and of which none but those who have witnessed them, can calculate the tremendous greatness and power. Is it not the universal element of life? Much engaged with these and the like reflections, I called upon an illustrious chemist, a man at once positive and sound, an innovator no less prudent than bold, and I abruptly asked him this plain question--What, in your opinion, is that whitish, viscuous matter which we find in sea water?
