  By

  The 
  sulphuric 
  acid 
  in 
  U 
  during 
  the 
  course 
  of 
  the 
  

   experiment 
  rose 
  in 
  the 
  tube, 
  showing 
  that 
  the 
  hydrogen 
  

   diffused 
  as 
  quickly 
  as 
  the 
  tube 
  T 
  supplied 
  it. 
  

  

  Only 
  a 
  very 
  small 
  fraction 
  of 
  the 
  original 
  charge 
  was 
  found 
  

   to 
  be 
  on 
  the 
  gas 
  after 
  diffusion, 
  as 
  the 
  deflexion 
  per 
  minute, 
  

   as 
  the 
  diffused 
  gas 
  enters 
  I, 
  was 
  found 
  to 
  be 
  less 
  than 
  2 
  per 
  

   cent, 
  of 
  the 
  deflexion 
  obtained 
  by 
  allowing 
  the 
  gas 
  to 
  enter 
  

   I 
  directly.

  Having 
  seen 
  that 
  the 
  hydrogen 
  in 
  diffusing 
  carries 
  

   with 
  it 
  no 
  appreciable 
  charge, 
  it 
  is 
  interesting 
  to 
  know 
  

   whether 
  the 
  electricity 
  is 
  carried 
  to 
  the 
  sides 
  and 
  gets
