THE PHOTOGRAPHIC NEWS. [July 30, 1880 being thrown headlong in the mud, by reason of the legs of the tripods and their own becoming mixed. One member caused a hearty laugh by calling out, “ I’ve lost my leg ; ” meaning one of the legs of the stand. However, like most things, the puddle came to an end, and we found all safe and sound on looking thingsover. Immediately after this we came upon the most charming miniature pool it had been our lot to see ; it was not more than a dozen yards across, and yet, with its surroundings, it made up a picture worthy of the highest artistic treatment. After this there were not many more plates exposed, though there seemed scope for many very good pictures being made, both roar foreground bits, and distant views. We passed through a grand wood, seeing pictures at every turn ; but it was now late, and the members were beginning to wish for the resting place. Very soon after the welcome hostelry was reached, and a substantial tea was set before the men, who, by reason of the delightful ramble they had enjoyed, were prepared to do full justice thereto. Ualk in the Studio. Photography by Gaslight.—In a communication forwarded just as we are proceeding to press, Mr. P. M. Laws informs us that the burners used in the Clock Tower of the House of Parliament are similar to the one used by himself, and were erected many years ago by Messrs. Edmondson and Co., of Dublin. We learn further that Messrs. Mawson and Swan have taken the sole agency for Great Britain and Ireland for them. SHEFFIELD Photographic Society.—This Society will hold its meetings in future at the Freemason’s Hall, Surrey Street, on the first Tuesday in the month, at half-past seven. Annual meeting in October. A Photographic Dispute.—In this action, last week, Mr. Dixon, a photographer, carrying on business at 112, Albany Street, sued the defendant, Mr. W. Ward, a pianoforte manu facturer, of 100, Great Russell Street, to recover the sum of £4 odd, being the value of two proofs from a negative taken of one of the defendant’s pianofortes, as well as for the negative itself. The defendant said that it was distinctly understood that the negative should not be charged for in the account charged. The plaintiff contended that it was preposterous to say that he would execute at the price the defendant wished to pay. The negative was charged at the lowest possible charge, seeing that the defendant could print several copies, by which ho might secure a considerable income. His Honour said it was preposterous to suppose that a negative supplied to the defendant was not of material value. There was no doubt that the charges for the proof were fair and reasonable, and the charge for the negative was equally so. Under the circum stances he considered that the plaintiff was fully entitled to recover the full amount; his claim as obtaining a negative apparently never entered into the contract; and if it had, the plaintiff would be fully entitled to the amount he claimed. Judgment was entered accordingly for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed. 0J Guxresgondents. AU ConintU)iNations connected with Advertisements and Business to be addressed to Messrs. Piper and Carter, “ Photographic News'* 1 Office, 5, Castle Street, Holborn, E.C. Advertisers are request'd to make all Cheques payable to Messrs. Piper and Carter, and crossed “ Vnion Bank, Photographic News Account. 11 Tyro.—The line of experiment you are engaged upon is well worth purs fling, and we should like to be favoured with your further observations when ready for publication. An Enquirer.—The addition of a trace of tincture of iodine to the collodion will generally overcome a tendency to fog. You do not say whether the collodion with which you “ refilled the pourer 11 was old or freshly brom-iodized ; if the latter, this was certainly the cause of all the subsequent plates fogging. Yellow spots on recently sensitized paper are to be accounted for by traces of hypo or dust of pyrogallic acid getting into the sheets of blotting-paper between which you say they were preserved over night. Try and wait until they are dry, and lay them together under prcssuie until the morning, thus avoiding the use of blotting-paper. Gustavus Mace.—Under the conditions described in your note and accompanying sketch, we should be disposed to advise you to build your glass house on the following plan:—The length, 21 feet, permits of your taking off, say, 3 feet 6 inches at either end for the dark chamber, that is, if no spare ground for this little room can be got on the north side, which you say is “ open.” It would be desirable to lay the flooring a foot at least off the ground, and more, if surrounding buildings interfere at all with your lighting. The north aspect is best to work by in all seasons, so keep this for your main light, and fully glaze it, making a double ridge roof, with the apex considerably thrown over towards the south, so as to give plenty of top light in case you want it. It is easily screened off at midsummer, and comes in very handy in winter. The south wall to the eaves and up to the ridge should be permanently closed in, and likewise the ends of the room ; you can then have double backgrounds, and work either way—a great convenience for pairs of portraits. With a good width (10 feet) you may have the eaves on north side, say 6 feet 6 inches from floor, and a foot or more higher on the south side. The dark room need not occupy the entire width, so that there would yet be space for the entrance doorway at the same end of the building. 11. O. B.—We have noticed at times the needle-shaped crystals you mention as being formed in the alkaline pyrogallic developer, but, not having analysed them, we cannot say of what they are composed. Bromide of silver is known to be slightly soluble both in ammonia and alkaline bromides. A. B. K.—See Photographic News of the 27th Feb., page 100. You will see the proper strength of solutions for intensifying gelatine plates as used by Mr. England. II. Bray.—Carmine or lake red is usually employed. For matt varnish, take— Sandarac ounce Canada balsam 1 drachm Sulphuric ether 7 ounces Benzole 3 ,, See an article in our Year-Book for 1873 on the subject. 1 Rich. Huck.—Thank you for communication. Our columns are rather crowded at the present moment, but we may have room shortly. An Amateur (Bristol).—A light coating of wax or india-rubber varnish should aid you in securing better adhesion to the plate during development. If not either of these, there is no other way than edging with clear varnish. An Old Hand with a Poser.—The advice given to the pre ceding enquirer may be in part applicable to your case, but from the admirable specimens forwarded, printed, as you say, eighteen months or two years ago, it is clear that all ordinary precautions were taken. We have known these spots to be almost inseparable from the practice of photography at the seaside. Is this your case ? Judging from the marine views sent, wo think it likely that the sea air is responsible for traces of chlorides getting into the paper, and by inducing moist conditions bringing about the first indica tions of fading. It is well known that show-cases at the seaside have to be made extraordinarily tight to exclude sea spray and moist air. Pyro.—The intermediate transparency for producing an enlarged negative may very well be a carbon print developed on the glass; or, as Dr. Monckhoven showed some years ago, the collodio -chloride process may be employed. For collodion transfers you would use an ordinary negative. G. W. Hale.—The cartes and cabinets pourtraying incidents in the Plymouth Regatta of 1878 are certainly very creditable, and prove, as you say, the capabilities of wet collodion. The fact remains, however, that gelatino-bromide plates are even more sensitive, and if you propose resuming your camera work at the present time, we should advise you to give the newer process a trial. G. Morgan.—1. Comparing the formula with that given by Capt. Abney on the 21st May last in the News, we should say the gelatine emulsion, when washed and filtered, ought to measure about 7 ounces. 2. The maintenance of an uniform temperature in the room and drying chamber is all-important at the time of coating your gelatine plates. On this point, see an article by M. Bascher in our next, from which you may glean many valu able suggestions, and which may help you through your troubles from frilling. PATENTS. COMPILED BY DES vaux AND COLTON.
