CHEMICAL LABORATORY.
A building planned and erected for the purpose is exclusively used as
a chemical lecture-room and laboratory. It is completely fitted with the
most approved appliances, and stocked with apparatus, models, materials
and specimens. The commodious lecture-room, with work and store
rooms attached, is provided with every convenience for exhibiting a complete
series of experiments illustrating the lectures on General Chemistry.
The large room assigned to Analytical Chemistry will accommodate
fifty working students, and is furnished with work tables, gas, water,
and all proper laboratory fixtures; and all requisite apparatus, chemicals,
minerals, materials for analysis, etc., are kept constantly supplied by
home purchase and importation.
A very large number of specimens, constituting a Museum of Industrial
Chemistry, has been collected, at much expense and pains, in this
country, England, France and Germany, illustrating the products and
processes of Chemistry applied to the Arts and Manufactures, and so arranged
as to be a most valuable aid to the student of Industrial Chemistry.
