(Chemistry applied to the Arts, Manufactures, &c.)

The pharmaceutical chemist, Roque Moschini, recommends the following ingredients:
Lactate of iron ... 1 gramme.
Gallic acid ... 0'60 »
Pulverized gum-arabic ... 5'00 »
Do. refined sugar ... 2'00 »
Hot water ... 100'00 »
The whole to be mixed; and if care has been taken in the selection of the gum the ink obtained by this process will be found fluid, incorruptible, and congenial to the steel pen.
