On some new Electrochemical Researches on various Objects particularly the metallic Bodies from the Alkalies and Earth and on some Combinations of Hydrogene. Read November 16 1809." together with the controversy papers by Davy and Gay-Lussac & Thenard."Mr. Davy having from the commencement of his electro-chemical researches communicated the several steps of his progress to the Society The Royal Society takes the present opportunity of reporting the results of his further inquiries under four principal heads. First on the nature of the metals of the fixed alkalis. Second on the nature of Hydrogen and composition of ammonia. Thirdly on the metals of the earth; and Fourthly he makes a comparison between the antiphlogistic doctrine and a modified phlogistic hypothesis."Abstract. He further gives arguments for considering potassium and sodium which he discovered in 1808 as a element.""Gay-Lussac had a slight rivalry between himself and the creation scientist Sir Humphry Davy. Davy was chemically preparing Potassium and Sodium through an electrical current and this made Gay-Lussac and Thénard envious of his success. They too decided to perform the same task but they had no battery at their disposal as Davy had so they had to form another way to chemically prepare the two elements. In 1808 they used a red-hot iron fused to potash the water-soluble form of a manufactured salt containing potassium to perform this task a method that Davy admitted had its advantageous qualities. Gay-Lussac and Thénard were successful in preparing Potassium and continued to make a full analysis of its chemical properties and began to use it for their own experiments. In 1809 Davy performed the same task using it to reduce Boron in Boracic acid." </em> unknown

Boisbaudran's paper: pp. 322-324. <br/><br/><em>First apperance of the paper in which Boisbaudran revealed his discovery of a new earth that precipitated had a unique spectrum. De Boisbaudran named it samaria after the mineral from which it was derived. The mineral samarskite is named for a Russian mining engineer and Chief of Staff - Corps of Mining Engineers Colonel Vasili Evgrafovich Samarsky-Bykhovets."Samarium was discovered by French chemist Paul Émile Lecoq de Boisbaudran in 1879. He noticed in his research that impure didymium praseodymium and neodymium with other impurities seemed to contain more than just didymium based on spectroscopic work on various rare-earth minerals. When Lecoq de Boisbaudran added ammonium hydroxide to a concentrate prepared from the mineral samarskite he observed a precipitate that formed before the didymium Weeks and Leicester 1968 p. 685.

Peltier's use of small samples of these nonductile materials was fortunate because the anomalous behavior of these materials led him to construct a thermoelectric thermoscope and to measure the temperature distribution along a series of thermocouple circuits. He discovered that a cooling effect can take place at one junction and an excessive heating at the other. He then confirmed this discovery by using an air thermometer in place of the thermoscope. Peltier did not pursue the effect he had discovered and its importence was not fully recognized until after the thermodynamic work of William Thomson twenty years later."DSB X p. 500.Wheeler Gift no 2684. - Ronald's Library p. 389. - Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1834 P. </em> unknown

A few scattered brownspots. <br/><br/><em>First printing of these classic papers in chemistry in which the authors announced their discovery of Strychnine. This was the first alkali of vegetable origin to be discovered after morphine. This discovery and their discovery of chlorophyll brought them international fame. The first small paper contains the announcement of the discovery and the second long memoir contains the elaborate exposition of the discovery."Strychnine was only the second alkaloid to be extracted the first was morphine. Pelletier and Caventou wanted to name their new alkaloid vauqueline after Nicolas Vauquelin one of their associates who had refined the technique of ether extraction for use in isolating alkaloids. However the officers of the Académe des Sciences in Paris rejected the idea on the grounds that a respected scientist’s name should not be paired with a deadly poison. In addition to strychnine the pair isolated other important compounds from plants including caffeine chlorophyll and the anti-malaria drug quinine. Paul L.

Johannes Müller showed tis paper to his brilliant pupil du Bois-reymond. Du Bois interest was caught at once.
