Abstract
ON reviewing the science of electro-chemistry and its application to modern manufacturing processes, one is struck with amazement at the enormous strides which have been made within the last ten or twenty years. On studying works on-chemistry little more than ten years old, hardly a reference is found to the use of electricity in metallurgy, s till less in regard to the manufacture of metallic salts, or of the non-metals, and absolutely none in reference to the preparation of organic chemical bodies, at any rate on a large scale.
