358 PROCEEDINGS OF THE SCIENTIFIC ASSOCIATION.

The Secretary read the following Report : —
As Secretary I have to present the following statement of
the progress of the Association during the past twelve months,
and of its condition at the end of that period.

The numbers of the Association do not show any augmen-
tation since the last Report. This is in some measure owing
to the fact that the names of several of our former members
have been removed from the list in consequence of non-com-
pliance with the rules.

We have elected 5 members and 2 corresponding members
during the preceding year ; one of the latter has been elected
a full member, and is included in the former number. Three
of the previous members have been removed from the list,
and three have resigned, leaving the composition of the Asso-
ciation as follows : —

Members 25

I Tonorary Member 1

Corresponding Members 11

Total 37

being a decrease of one member and an increase of one cor-
responding member as compared with the previous year.

The finances are, is to be noted, in a prosperous condition.
The balance, however, would not have been so large had not
the Fourth Part of our Proceedings fallen below the average
size, owing to the paucity of papers read during the first half
of the year now under consideration. On the other hand
during the last three months our expenses have been much
increased by our meetings taking place in a room in a public
building, and the necessity we have been under of providing
some articles of furniture as well as refreshments for the
members. Though this will be felt more in the ensuing vent.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY.

359

I see no reason to fear that our finances will prove insufficient,
a proper degree of economy being maintained.

The hope expressed by the Secretary in his last report that

the sale of the Proceedings would show an increase in the

year just ended, has been amply realized, and it is gratifying
to see so respectable an addition to our resources under this

head ; much of this is due to the sale of our Proceedings in

England, a publisher in London having undertaken the

Agency there.

The latter paper which is a valuable contribution to our
stock of knowledge relative to this Island, will appear in the
next Part of our Proceedings. As it will occupy much space,
special arrangements have been made by which the expense
of printing will not fall on the Association.

Donations of various publications have been made by the
Sociedad de Ciencias of Caracas, and the exchange of our
respective proceedings has been agreed-to by that Society and
ourselves. It is much to be wished that other scientific bo-
dies in this part of the world, of which there are unfortunately
but few, would similarly unite with us in the diffusion of
valuable information.

Allusion has already been made as to our having obtained
a place of meeting in a public building. Our accommoda-
tion.- are, however, anything but satisfactory, and it is to be
hoped that before long better arrangements on this point will
be made.

I should bring under the notice of the Association the ne-

-ity which will soon arise for binding the papers and books

presented to the Society, and of adopting sum,' rules whereby

Buch donations may be made more accessible to the members

for reading and reference.

HENRY F. J. GUrPY,

CARE — VOYAGE ROUND TRINIDAD. 361

The following communication was read : —

Notes of a Voyage round the Island of Trinidad in

October, 1868.

By Thomas William Carr.

(Communicated by the President.)

Part I.
(abridged.)

Mr. William Tucker Laving invited me to accompany him
on a coasting voyage, I gladly took advantage of his invita-
tion, with a view to make myself better acquainted with the
geography and natural history of the island. We sailed from
Port-of-Spain on the 11th October last, and ran down to
Monos to take in ballast. We neared that Island towards 3
p.m. during a southerly squall heralded by thunder and ac-
companied by driving rain, the wind veering round to east,
and going down in about three-quarters of an hour as the
storm passed by to the West.

We were fortunately so close to our destination that we
were able to gain shelter behind Dominique Point, and run
into l'Anse Maho in the bottom of Dehert Bay, anchoring just
as the squall and gloom reached their height. We lay
nearly landlocked ; and the storm, by the rapidity of its pas_
sage, not having had time to raise a sea in the Gulf, we were
in still water.

This squall recalled to our minds that it was the anniver-
sary of the last Hurricane by which the island had been vi-
sited : this, the only Hurricane of which I (or Mr. Tucker)
had had any experience, set in near midnight of the 11th
October, 1847, lasting in strong but fitful blasts for about 3

hours. Trinidad was swept by the southern skirt of a Hur-
ricane, which having exerted its full force in passing over
Tobago, ran in a path nearly parallel with our Northern
shores, striking Carupano and Pampatar (Margarita.) Its
influence was slight to the south of the Caroni and the Oro-
pouche rivers, and in Naparima it was not felt at all. In
Trinidad, Toco suffered most, being nearer to the heart of
the storm than any other exposed quarter. In town, the Dry
river ran wild, and the bridges were carried away. In the
vallies running down through and from the northern range of
mountains, Cacao estates suffered from the fall of the Bois
Immortels ; fallen Bamboos choked the Carenage road where
it passes through the Hope estate in the mouth of the Diego-
Martin valley, and Plantain and Manioc fields suffered much.
Beyond the injuries and the wreck of the boats and droghers
in our harbor, no further notable harm was done. The lar-
ger craft held to their anchors, as they generally have done
here in similar cases, thanks to our excellent holding ground
(mud), to our enclosed position, and to the merely third or
fourth-class character of the few Hurricanes by which we are
visited. Only four Hurricanes are recorded as having touched
this island within the present century ; they occurred on

18th October, 1809.

12th August, 1810.

23rd June, 1831.

12th October, 1847.
That of 1S31 was the worst, and was felt throughout the
Island — the wooden jetties at San Fernando and Port-of-
Spain were destroyed, many feluccas wrecked and several
si lips were driven on shore, but the bottom being mud these
were subsequently hauled back into deep water unhurt. On
this occasion also the Dry Paver overflowed its banks.

A small tree, 12-15 feet high, not unlike, in stem, branch-
ing and proportions, that I can recollect a standard Apple
tree to be, and that grew pretty commonly along the cliffy
shores, presented a beautiful appearance, having shed its
leaves, or nearly all, and being in full blossom with delicate
bright-yellow spreading-petalled flowers. The long narrow-
based expanding yellow petals remind one of the orchid-like
flowers of the Stigmaphyllon convolvulifolium, a wild vine
miming over wild shrubs in the outskirts of Port-of-Spain, or
of the S. diversifolium, a scandent shrub with a smooth man-

ove-like leaf very common in Mangrove swamps. It is
Gomphia nitida. It flowers profusely on short panicles, and
would be very ornamental in a garden when in flower. To
my surprise, a person who accompanied us, a native of Monos,
in answer to an inquiry as to Lta common name, said it v.
' Mangle Blanc' : whereas this was stated by Mr. Criiger to
be Laguncularia racemosa, a Combretad. Trivial names .

not so, over the world, with Cedars, Oaks, Beefwoods, &c, ?
Such confusion shows the value of a fixed systematic nomen-
clature, but as this can never come into common use, we
should endeavor, in common names, to hold to some special
and if possible the aboriginal name of a plant, as Mammee
instead of Maruniee-apple, Jambolan instead of Java-plum
or its absurd Creole alternative of Prune manage, Avocado
instead of Avocato-pear, Alligator-pear or Zaboca, and so on
through numberless instances. I once asked an old black
man what, if any, common name was given to a pretty pink-
flowering plant (Stachytarpheta mutabilis) — pointing to it —
"wha' we caal 'im, hea'about ? — Queen- Victoria dressin'-
gown-bush, — da he naim, — putty flower !"

On the beach of l'Anse Caribe a Conchologist would look
in vain for a single shell ; yet a friend who stayed there ten
days during last month, December, brought back from it not
less than 30 species, in various condition, whole, broken, and
fragments. We had been talking of shells before he went
down, and when there, having little occupation or variety of
modes in which to pass the time, his household amused them-
selves with seeking shells by scraping aside the stones and
fine gravel. Columbella mercatoria, JVassa antillarum, Ce-
rithium valgatum, Cerithium versicolor and Purpura auri-
culata, were numerous ; Murex pomiformis, Columbella lae-
vigata, Capulus intortus, Nerita praecognita^ Siphonaria
lineata and the handsome Triton pilearis were pretty fre-
quent— the remainder were generally single specimens or
fragments — these were all what a malacologist would call
dead shells, indicating nevertheless the existence of as many
living species of mollusks in the sea washing that shore.

On the very narrow beach cleared of the bushes for a land-

ing place, there were a number of Trigona Mactroides, the
valves united but the animal invariably gone — they had ap-
parently been gathered for cooking, and, after boiling, the
meat had been taken out without breaking the hinge. The
same remark applies to the Asiphis rugosa and the Venus
crenulata also found here in considerable numbers. I saw no
other shells here than those four sorts. The bottom of this
bay is probably too calm to allow of shell fish or dead shells
being driven ashore on its beaches.

ed. Pillar lip smooth, flattened or hollowed out, bright pink ;
outer lip denticulate, obsoletely striate within. Height 40
millimetres, greatest breadth 27 mill., longest diameter of

A species somewhat resembling P. mancinclla, but with
a sharper spire and a more decided striation. The sutural
lamellae are well developed like those of P. coronal a. There
i strong ridge round the base. Gulf of Paria.

Cardium eburniferum n. sp.

Shell a little angularly suboval, moderately tumid : exter-
nally marked with irregular orange-brown spots, and adorned
with 35 narrow imbricated ribs closely covered towards the
margins of the shell with numerous porcellanous semitubular
tubercles, which are thicker anteriorly ; posterior edge nearly

straight, strongly serrate. Hinge-teeth -, -, , — strong.

Interior salmon-color, growing white towards the strongly
dentrate margins which are yellowish. Height 52 mill.,
length 45, thickness 40. South Coast of Trinidad (T. W.
Carr).

Cardium haitense Sowerby.

Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. vol. vi, p. 52, pi. x, f. 11.

An oblique subovate shell with 20 — 24 radiating nodose
rather square ribs wider than their finely crenate interstices.
Allied to C. subovale Brod.

This was originally described by Sowerby as a fossil from
Haiti, but I have dredged two small examples of it in the
Gulf of Paria.

This species was described as a fossil, but I have since as-
certained that it is likewise living on our coasts, having been
collected by myself on the shores of the Gulf of Paria, and
by Mr. Carr on the South Coast. Its umbones are often,
pink or red, which color is visible inside as well as outside
and the shell has a hairy epidermis, generally worn off at the
umbones. Height 17, length 24 mill, The following is the
original description : —

" Transversely subrhomboidal, with a strong wide carina-
tion running from the umbo to the posterior angle ; ornament-
ed with many (36-38) squamosely nodose radiating ribs each
with a fine subsidiary thread-like rib in the nrrrow interstice ;
anterior margin short, rounded ; posterior margin strongly
sinuate, angulate above with the hinge-line and forming a
more rounded angle with the strongly crenate lower margin.
Hinge-teeth small in the middle of the straight hinge, but
becoming larger and diverging considerably towards the
angles ; ligamental area more or less grooved, especially an-
teriorly."

Th racia diss im L lis.

Ovatc-oblong, compressed, white, roughened by numerous
line granules which are generally arranged in lines radiating
In >m the umbo; trar ely excentrically plaited ; anteriorly
rounded, posteriorly vertically truncate, with a keel (most
prominent on the smaller valve) running from the umbo to
the lower posterior angle. Height 27, length 40, thickm

diate between T. plicata and T. magnified, differing from the
former in ornamentation and general shape. On a tablet in
the British Musenm the name dissimilis is applied to our
species ; but I have not been able to find any authority for
that name, which I now adopt for the shell.

The animal is furnished with two long siphons separate
for the whole of their length and coarsely fringed. The
epidermis along the posterior margin extends beyond the
the shell and covers the bases of the siphons.

" On the Manufacture of Sugar by Evaporation." By The
Hon. Henry Stuart Mitchell, M.D, Ph.D.

The last communication which I had the pleasure of sub-
mitting to tbe Association, was an examination of the me-
thods in use or proposed for obtaining the juice of the Sugar
Cane in as nearly a state of sugar and water as possible.
Experience has decided clearly in favour of slicing the cane
and then washing out the saccharine element with water.
This may be done in more than one way, but it may be af-
firmed that science points out as the most perfect mode that
in which the cane after the process of slicing is exposed to
such a heat under 212° as will be sufficient to fix the albu-

370 PROCEEDINGS OF THE SCIENTIFIC ASSOCIATION.

men-oil and colouring matters and at the same time prevent
any degenerating process from beginning through the action
of the air on vegetable ferment or otherwise till ample time
elapse for driving off the superfluous water and isolating the
whole sugar in a state of purity. It was further stated that
the next best mode of extraction, where the desiccation of
the slices was undesirable, would be to macerate the slices as
they fell in vessels containing water dosed appropriately with
bisulphite of Lime. In either case the displacement of the
sugar would be attained in the former methods entirely, and
in the latter to extent of about nine-tenths of the whole but
of somewhat inferior purity. Whenever the slightest impu-
rity occurs, it should be at once removed by filtration,
through charcoal, as it may be safely maintained with Dmitri
Davidou, probably the best practical writer on the manufac-
ture of Beet-root sugar, that previous to evaporation, "the
juice must be in a slate of perfect purity." To this axiom
every manufacturer who hopes for success must implicitly
conform, and the planter in these colonies who chooses to
incur the extra expense and trouble, will yet find it much
easier to do so in the earlier stages of manufacture, than
in manipulating the comparatively weak but complex juice of
the Beet in Europe, or in refining, an originally low quality
of Muscovado.

To attain such purify animal charcoal is the agent almost
universally employed, but wood charcoal and many shales
possess similar power and though in less degree have been
occasionally used a institutes. To gentlemen com
with this Colony it must be interesting and may be profit-
able to know, thai in the Bitumen which exists so abundantly

which carefully manipulated, equals animal charcoal in de-
colorising power, while it communicates no unpleasant smell
to the nitrate, and as refuse becomes a valuable cane-manure
To return to the subject of these remarks, the Evaporation of
Cane-juice. It is clear that whatever the mode employed, the
end to be obtained is in all instances the same, namely, to
get rid of the superfluous water in the shortest time, aud
with least injury to the remaining sugar — in other words, to
expose the largest surface of liquid to the largest heating
surface under such circumstances as do not necessarily involve
deterioration of the liquid. Omitting for the present any
consideration of Vacuum-pan working, which is the most
perfect as well as the most expensive, I shall confine thesa
remarks to evaporation from the inclined plane and by the
Shower.

The Inclined Plane or tray was originally described by its
Inventor in 1S37, as a shallow trough 6 metres long and 2
metres wide, made of copper and heated by steam, with the
lower end at such an inclination, that the Beet-root juice
when poured on the upper part in a state of " perfect purity"
took two minutes and-a-half to reach the lower end, whence
it fell in a continuous stream, marking 22J degrees of Beau-
me, the temperature on the surface never marking above 72°
of Reaumur (167° Fahr.) This inclined plane was imper-
fectly divided throughout its whole extent by transverse per-
pendicular flanges alternately attached to the opposite sides
of the tray in such a manner that the liquid in its descent
had to traverse the whole breadth of the pan before escaping
at the free end of each flange to course along the next one — ■
each flange thus acting as a dam or gutter till the liquid
reached its free end, descending to the next, and so on, till

the liquid to be evaporated come in contact with, many hun-
dred feet of evaporating surface. A blast of air along this
surface as proposed by the inventor, but not put in execution
by him, would, if heated or even dry, have more than doubled
the evaporative effect. Dmitri Davidou then proceeds to
state the results obtained in the following language : " Les
produits bruts que j'ai obtenus l'annee passee (1836) de la
betterave tres alteree, a l'aide de mon plan incline (apres
lequel j'achevai la concentration du sirop dans un cylindre
tournant) avaient la blancheur de la neige et offraient l'aspect
du sucre en pains par le rapprochement compacte de leurs
crystaux, mais comme les sirops n'avaient point subi Faction
violente du feu, la saveur, etc."

These results are brilliant, and it is not astonishing that a
pure juice (for Davidou insists on purity as essential) should
when rapidly evaporated by steam in a copper vessel at a low
temperature produce a white concrete, the wonder is that a
system so simple and presenting such advantages, should
have remained in abeyance till within the last 3 or 4 years,
when it has been revived by Mr. Fryer in the introduction of
the Concretor. This last, a modification of the inclined plane
and cylinder of Davidou, appears to be a wonderful improve-
ment on the canon coppers, producing in a single concrete
form, easily made, handled and shipped with little or no loss,
what was formerly shipped with great trouble as the two
separate articles, sugar and molasses with an eventual loss
on their aggregate of seldom less than 12 or 14 percent.
Mr. Fryer rates the gain at something over £4 per ton by
employing the Concretor ; I am inclined to place it much
higher if the apparatus be worked with care, not that it will
ever give or was ever intended to give a white concrete like

Davidou's, its iron surface cannot be kept as clean as that of
the copper plane, nor can its open fire be as carefully regu-
lated as a steam supply. Yet the principle is one whose
adoption must lead gradually from one modification to another
till it end in the production of pure concrete or loaf sugar ;
this was probably not intended by Mr. Fryer, but to me the
conclusion appears to be inevitable and not remote.

The second method of evaporation to which I would direct
your attention is the " Shower ;" a process which may dispute
the palm with the inclined plane of Dmitri Davidou or the
more recent Fryer's Concretor — inasmuch as the surface it
exposes, either to steam or heated air, is practically unlimited,
and the heat does not rise high enough to scald the fingers,
The application is as follows : premising as in the preceding
mode that the cane-juice to be operated on is perfectly pure,
it is received into a vessel heated by steam or otherwise ; to
this is adapted a pump, endless belt or other suitable elevator,
which by its action raises the liquid to be evaporated to any
given height above the receiving vessel, into which it again
falls through a sieve or perforated surface in as many drop-
ping rills as there are perforations in the sieve ; through this
" Shower," which gives its name to the apparatus, dry or
heated air may be driven or not, according to the speed of
evaporation required. It is clear that by increasing the
height of the Shower and the amount of dry air driven
through its particles or drops, the superfluous moisture may
be driven off with such speed as to cause almost instantaneous
evaporation. The action of the apparatus when used with
water illustrates its power more clearly. When applied to a
vessel 3 feet wide by 5 feet long 2 feet deep, in which the
water was made to boil fiercely, the temperature of the water

immediately sunk to 150° fahrenheit, nor could the skill of
the fireman raise the heat higher, as long as the " Shower"
was in action. This mechanism, including the Fanner blast,
was worked successfully on a practical scale before Lord
Harris, the Governor of Trinidad, and several Members of
the Legislative Council, in 1849, and those present satisfied
themselves, ihat while the Shower was in full action and the
evaporation at its quickest, the syrup could be handled with
impunity. The importance of using cane-juice or syrup in a
state of perfect purity is so great, that you will perhaps
excuse me for adding a few words on this subject, and recom-
mending to your careful examination an automatic or self-
acting process for clarifying and cleansing cane-juice or other
materials in the earlier stage of evaporation. It was borrowed
originally from Cuba, and subsequently patented in Trinidad
and Demerara.
