- W2000761674 abstract "It is only within a short period that the science of electricity has in any manner been applied to the arts, but it offers to our use a powerful agent that will soon be directed in a thousand ways to the improvement of our chemical processes and manufactures. We have already its assistance in the rapid transmission of intelligence by the galvanic telegraph— in the multiplication of engraved plates—in the art of gilding and silvering metals—in assaying ores—and lastly, in that I now bring under your notice, the firing of gunpowder in blasting rocks, either in quarries, mines, or subaqueous operations. This application of the electric fluid was carried into effect by me, long before the discoveries I have mentioned, for it is now many years since I attempted to introduce it into the mining district of Cornwall, and it is right that it should have your first and most earnest attention, it being mainly directed to the saving of life, and preservation from injury, to the poor labourer, who, by the use of the old process of blasting, was too often unhappily deprived either of life, sight, or limb. Such being the object for which I first contrived an apparatus for this employment of electricity, I am sure you will join me with equal ardour in spreading a knowledge of the process, and in inducing workmen and masters to use this safe and powerful agent in their daily operations in mines and quarries.
