Spurious composition, may, from its failure, have become preju- 
diced against the use of Asphalte, the following are neared 
as some of the distinguishing qualities of the wentine mater 
The Asphalte of Seyssel is of a light colour, closel; 
Yorkshire stone, has a smooth surface (without mente ginger), 
and joints almost inpeYCUpubley $ v4 is also free from smell, is not 
acted upon by change of temperature, and is at all times dry and 
warm, and remarkably Pleasant to walk upon, and, from its elas- 
ticity, ’nevereracks. ici aoe material, on the contrary, has 
a dark and dirty- ioouine, appear sents a rough and coarse 
surface, and, poe its prittieness, 4 is able to crack, particularly 
in frosty weat In consequence of the above qualities, the 
genuine ay (being perfectly impervious to wet) has been 
used with great advantage for roofing ; it can be laid down toany 
extent, presenting one uniform surface, and is far superior to 
lead, as it is not liable to expansion or contraction in consequence 
of any change in the t Seropgerir. For covering of arches, (to 
prevent the “percolation of wet,) it is invaluable, the Greenwich 
Railway Company alone having covered upwards of 400,000 su- 
perficial feet; it has also been used on the Great Western, Bir- 
mingham, Ta to asa South Western, Brighton, Blackwall,
