There Was a great deal of such acrid discussion by wordy savants of the times, who tried to settle everything by argument. Experimentation was regarded as rather undignified and even smacking of relations with the devil.

Having treated this subject more in the manner of a poet than a scientist [savant], the result is that it is difficult to know exactly his [Dumas s] thought.. . . Whether this statue should be in bronze, in marble, or in ivory the material is of little importance, says M. Dumas it is always the same statue, the same type. In effect, it little matters that this sulfate is a salt of copper, or of lead or of iron it always belongs to the sulfate type. But where do we stop ammonium sulfate, sulfuric ether, alum, do they belong to the sulfate type 54...

At this point, Lavoisier was primarily interested in doing research that would impress the academicians. He read his first paper to the Academy as a visiting scientist (that is, a non-member) on February 27,1765. It dealt with a topic that had been pursued by some of the chemists in the Academy and was titled The Analysis of Gypsum. Gypsum was the mineral from which plaster was made, so it was a topic with practical applications. The two referees appointed by the Academy to judge the paper reported favorably on it and recommended it for inclusion in the Academy s Savants etrangers collection. It is probable that some sort of behind-the-scenes deal had been made because both referees were friends of Lavoisier s father. 

Baudelaire, quoted in Senior, 95 .. . c est Satan [Hermes] Trismegiste / Qui berce longuement notre esprit enchante, / Et le riche metal de notre volunte / Est tout vaporise par ce savant [aljchimiste. ... 

The preceding analysis only too plainly shows the wretched state of our laboratory in Mexico, after having been for thirty years under the direction of so distinguished a chemist as M. Elhuyar, the discoverer of wolfram and cerium[ ]. It is true that under the old government, this savant found himself obliged to become a man of business, undoubtedly much against his inclination for it is impossible that he who has once imbibed a taste for science can ever abandon it (5).

Antoine Baum6 stated that die purest alum came from Civita Vecchia near Rome and that a good grade of it was also made at Solfatara. He based his account on die Abbe J.-A. Nollet s description, read before the Academie des Sciences in 1750, of his visit to the Solfatara alum works and on the Abbe Mazeas s memoir on the alumte mines of Tolfa, Italy, and Polinier, Brittany, which was pubhshed in volume five of the Savants etrangers (148). 

If the few experiments which we have been able to perform have not afforded us that certainty of the existence of bromine as a very simple body which in the present day is properly required, we consider it at least very probable that it is so. The memoir of M. Balard is extremely well drawn up, and the numerous results which he relates would not fail to excite great interest, even if it should be proved that bromine is not a simple body. The discovery of bromine is a very important acquisition to chemistry, and gives M. Balard honorable rank in the career of the sciences. We are of the opinion that this young chemist is every way worthy of the encouragement of the Academy, and we have the honor to propose that his memoir shall be printed in the Recueil des Savants Strangers (16, 29).
