It has been observed that rocks of a crystalline structure do not nitrify so readily when they are without the substances which have just been named. The calcareous and magnesian rocks which are most favourable to nitrification, under the influence of animal emanations and of vegetables in a state of decomposition, are those which are the least coherent, or which are the most porous, such as chalk, tufa, &c. In those countries where the soil does not undergo spontaneous nitrification, certain arrangements of circumstances, known to favour the production of saltpetre, are made: artificial nitre-beds are prepared. In the north of Europe where the rocks are granitic, in a hut or shed built of wood, a mixture is made of common earth, of calcareous sand or marl, and of wood-ashes. This heap is watered with the urine of herbivorous animals, and the mixture is stirred or shifted from time to time to favour the access of the air; and with the same view, the workmen are very careful never to beat or press the heap, which is generally from two to two and a half feet in thickness, and usually of the whole length of the hut or shed. Experience has shown that the process of nitrification goes on best in the shade.

With this kind of mortar, solid walls or masses from twenty to four and twenty feet in length, by about six feet and a half in thickness, are built, rods of wood being introduced during the construction in considerable numbers, and in such a way that they can be pulled out when the mass has acquired suf...
