After adverting to the three known methods of subjecting a liquid tension, viz., (i) the method of the inverted barometer, (ii) the centrifugal method devised by Osborne Reynolds, (iii) the method of cooling discovered in 1850 by Berthelot, and pointing out that the first two afford means of measuring stress but not strain, while the third gives a measure of strain but not stress, the author proceeds to describe the manner in which he had used the method of Berthelot in combination with a new mode of determining the stress, and had succeeded in obtaining simultaneous measures of tensile stress and strain for ethyl alcohol up to a tension of more than 17 atmospheres, or 255 lbs. per square inch.
