AB - THE flame referred to by Major Herschel (NATURE, vol. xxvii. p. 78) is simply that of carbon monoxide, which may be observed in most coal fires, after the hydrocarbons are consumed, burning with a pale blue flame. Any yellow tint is of course due to sodium present in the coal. The production of carbon monoxide depends more upon the arrangement of, than the quality of, the coal. Major Herschel will find the reason of its presence give in any text-book on chemistry.
