ard and tenacious alloy used as a substitute for steel. Its composition varies but little from that of the usual gun-metal, — 90 copper, 10 tin, — which, in making a gun, is cast upon a copper core of less diameter than the bore. The piece is then reamed out until it is 1/4 inch less than the bore intended. Conical plugs of hard steel are then driven through it by hydraulic pressure, which confers upon the metal the peculiar qualities. It was patented by S. B. Dean, Boston, Mass., May 18, 1869, and an order was given in 1870 by the U. S. Ordnance Office for some guns made by his process. His claim reads: As a new manufacture, a bronze gun, in which the metal immediately surrounding the bore is put in the condition that is produced by the process of condensation set forth. Colonel Uchatius, director of the Arsenal at Vienna, uses an alloy of 90 to 92 per cent of copper and 10 to 8 per cent of tin, and casts under a pressure of 80 tons, producing a very hard, tenacious metal,
