The alloys which we used in the following experiments were in the form of very thin hard-drawn wires,—the same as those whose thermo-electric properties we described in a paper published in the Transactions of this Society in 1877. They were prepared by Messrs. Johnson and Matthey of Hatton Garden, London. In giving their constitution we rely upon the authority of the manufacturers, as the quantities we had were too small to admit of our having them analysed.
