    "... le stéréoscope est venu donner à la photographie une portée nouvelle et un intérêt inattendu. Ces vues de la nature, que l'instrument de Daguerre nous fournit avec tant de simplicité, d'abondance et d'économie, mais qui ne représentent, comme tous les dessins, que des surfaces sans relief ni profondeur, le stéréoscope permet d'en faire de petits tableaux, dans lesquels la nature se présente telle qu'elle apparaît à nos yeux. Dans cette boîte magique, la peinture devient sculpture, les détails les plus minutieux apparaissent, une image muette s'anime, une photographie devient un buste, dont un sculpteur peut s'inspirer [...] Le stéréoscope fut découvert en 1838, et la photographie rendue publique en 1839. Ainsi, ces deux inventions se sont produites presque simultanément, comme s'il fallait que l'une arrivât précisément pour faire comprendre toute la valeur et l'importance de l'autre !..."

    " ... La question de la ventilation dans les habitations privées, dans les lieux de réunion publique et dans les hôpitaux, est donc une de celles qui doivent le plus préoccuper les hygiénistes et les amis de l'humanité. Il ne suffit pas d'ouvrir aux souffrances du pauvre un asile où lui sont prodigués les secours les plus assidus et les soins éclairés des maîtres dans l'art médical. Il faut encore pourvoir, dans nos hospices, au renouvellement constant et parfait de l'atmosphère des salles, où tant de causes de viciation et d'altération prennent continuellement naissance. Il faut enfin assurer à l'individu dans son habitation, les meilleures conditions hygiéniques, sous le rapport de l'air respirable. Cette question, dont on s'embarrassait à peine, il y a quelques années, est devenue, dans ces derniers temps, l'objet des préoccupations des hygiénistes. Nous nous attacherons, dans cette Notice, à résumer les travaux des physiciens modernes sur les meilleurs moyens d'assurer une ventilation régulière et suffisante..."

    " ... En France les bouchers fondaient eux-mêmes les graisses, et avec ce suif fabriquaient les chandelles. Une corporation de chandeliers fut établie en France vers 1016, sous le roi Philippe Ier, et régularisée vers 1470. La lanterne fut imaginée vers les premiers temps du Moyen âge. C'était une enveloppe de métal, pourvue d'une lame transparente de corne et renfermant une chandelle ou une petite lampe. Les lanternes se fabriquaient chez les peigniers-tabletiers, qui avaient le privilège de travailler la corne. Les lanternes se portaient à la main. Quelques-unes étaient placées, pendant la nuit, sous une statuette de la Vierge, à la porte de certains couvents. On ne pouvait songer à les placer aux coins des rues, pour dissiper les ténèbres de la nuit, car les voleurs et larrons n'auraient pas tardé à faire disparaître ces indiscrets témoins et dénonciateurs de leurs crimes et méfaits. Sous Louis XI, le prévôt avait fait commandement aux Parisiens, par ordre du roi, d'avoir armures dans leurs maisons, de faire le guet dessus les murailles, de mettre flambeaux ardents et lanternes aux carrefours des rues et aux fenêtres des maisons. Mais cette ordonnance était restée sans effet. Quelques promenades du guet, plutôt disposé à demander grâce aux voleurs qu'à les poursuivre, voilà tout ce qu'on faisait, au XVIIe siècle, pour la sécurité des rues de la capitale pendant la nuit..."

    " L'origine des puits artésiens n'est pas aussi récente que pourrait le faire supposer leur nom, tiré de la province d'Artois. En France, c'est en effet dans la province d'Artois qu'ont été creusées les premières fontaines jaillissantes, et de là le nom qui a prévalu. Mais bien des siècles avant que la province d'Artois fût constituée, les peuples de l'Orient connaissaient l'art d'aller chercher dans les profondeurs de la terre l'eau des nappes invisibles, et de la faire monter à la surface du sol, où on l'employait pour tous les usages domestiques et pour les besoins de l'agriculture. Les oasis qui parsèment les déserts de la Syrie, de l'Arabie et de l'Egypte, ne doivent leur fertilité qu'à des sources d'eaux jaillissantes pratiquées par la main de l'homme. Or, quelques-unes de ces oasis étaient déjà célèbres dans les premiers temps de l'ère chrétienne, ce qui fait remonter à une époque assez reculée l'origine des puits forés..."

    " Aucune découverte n'a excité, autant que celle des aérostats, la surprise, l'admiration, l'émotion universelles. Il n'y eut en Europe, qu'un cri d'enthousiasme pour les navigateurs intrépides qui, les premiers, osèrent s'élancer dans le vaste champ des airs. En effet, jamais l'orgueil humain n'avait rencontré de triomphe plus éclatant en apparence. L'homme venait, disait-on, de marcher à la conquête de l'atmosphère. Ces plaines infinies, dont l'oeil est impuissant à sonder l'étendue, désormais devenaient son domaine; il pouvait à son gré parcourir son nouvel empire, il régnait en maître sur ces régions inexplorées. Ainsi le monde n'offrait plus de barrières, l'espace n'avait plus d'abîmes que son génie ne pût franchir. On s'abandonnait de toutes parts, à l'orgueil de cette pensée; on applaudissait à ce résultat inespéré des sciences physiques qui, à peine à leur naissance, venaient de donner un si magnifique témoignage de leur puissance. On ne mettait pas en doute la possibilité de régulariser bientôt et de diriger à travers les airs la marche de ces nouveaux esquifs, et la navigation atmosphérique apparaissait déjà comme une création prochaine..."
