THE DAILY OPINION. TUESDAY MORNING:::: OCTOBER 1. A Great Secret Divulged.—The New Process of Petrifying Human Flesh.—Not long a>.o I spoke of the lost secret for pe- trilying human flesh, of the persevering attempts made in Italy to rc-discover it, and of the discovery, while making these researches, of another method of preserv ing flesh, perhaps quite as valuable as the lost one. At the Great Exposition, Dr. Burnetti, of Padua, the finder of the new method, was honored with a gold medal, And with the true spirit of a man of science, he came forward tne other evening at one of the meetings of the International Medi cal Congress, now in session at the School of Medicine of Paris, and divulged his secret. The great amphitheatre of the School was crowded with distinguished medical men from all parts of the world, and when the Italian savant had concluded tUb speech he was rewarded with an ova- Mon which must have been a full compen sation for any losses he may have suffered llrom having his secret passed into the pub lic domain. The following details are suf- fleient to enable any anatomist to avail kimself of this important discovery: The process of Dr. Burnetti, which he explained in French with method, and in a pure and elegant diction, comprises sev eral operations, viz: 1. The washing of the piece to lie preserved. 2. The degraissage, •r eating away of the fatty matter. 3. The Vanning. 4. The desiccation. 1. To wash the piece, M. Burnetti passes «current of pure water throughout the Mood vessels and various excretory canals, mnd then he w ashes the water out by a cur- gent of alcohol. 2. For destroying the fat, he follows the Alcohol with ether, which he pushes, of aourse, through the same blood vessels and AXcrctory ducts; this part of the opera tion lasts some hours. The ether penetrates Abe interstices of the flesh and dissolves all the fat. The piece, at this point of the process, may lie preserved any length of time* desired, plunged in ether, before ] needing to the final operations. For the tanning process, 31. Burnetti dissolves tannin in boiling distilled water. ,And then, after washing the ether out of the vessels with distilled water, ho throws khis solution in. 4. For the drying process Dr. Burnetti places the pieces in a vase with a double Aottom, filled with boiling water, and he tiJta the places of the precedingliquids with warm, dry air. By the aid of a reservoir, in which air is compressed to about two Atmospheres, and which communicates by A stop-cock and a system of tubes, first to a vase containing chloride of calcium, then with another heated, then with the vessels and excretory ducts of the anato mical piece in course of preparation, ho es tablishes a gaseous current which expels in a very little time all the fluids. The op eration Is now finished. The piece remains supnle, light pre- aerves its size, its normal relations, its •olid histological elements, for there are no longer any fluids in it. It may be han dled without fear, and will last indefinite ly. The discovery is a magnificent one, And the sooner medical schools are provid ed with full cabinets of natural and patho logical pieces the better.—Paris Corres pondence N. Y.

Its line extends from Sacramento, on the tidal waters of the Pacific, eastward across the richest and most populous parts of California, Nevada and Utah, continguous to all the great Mining Regions of the Far West, and will meet and con nect with the roads now building cast of tho Rocky Monntains. About 100 miles are now built, equipped and in running operation to the summit of the Sierra Nevada. Within a few days 35 miles, now graded, will be added, andffhe track carried entirely across the mountains to a point in the Great Salt Lake Valley, whence fur ther progress will be easy and rapid. Iron, materials and equipments are ready at hand for 300 miles of road, and 10,000 men are employ ed In the construction. The local bussioess upon the complete! portion surpasses all previous etsimatc. The figures for the quarter ending August 31, are as follows in GOLD: Gross Operating Net Earnings, Expenses, Earnings $487,579 64 $86,548 47 $4*1.031 17 or at the rate of two millions per annum, of which more than three-fourths are net profit ordess than 100 miles worked. This is upon ihe aettfd, legiti mate traffic of the road, with its terminus in the mountains, and with only the normtl ratio of government transportation, and is exclusive ot the materials for the further extension <f the road. The Company’s interest liabilities luring the same period M ere less than $125,000. Add to this an ever-expanding tiircpgh traffic and the proportions of the future business become immense. The Company are authorized to continue their line eastward until it shall meet and connect with the roads now bufding east of tho Rocky Mountain ranges. , Assuming that they will build and control half the en tire distance between San Francilco and the Missouri River, as now seems pitiable, the United States will have invested In the comple tion of 865 miles $28)592,000* or at the aver age rate of $35*000 per mile-not Deluding an absolute grant of 10*000*000 adren oi the Public Lands.
