Gower at twenty years' old invented one of the earliest anticipations of the Patent Log, and in 1800 had built at
Itchenor in Chichester Harbour the 'Transit,' 'a ship of remarkable speed, four-mastetl , with sails of peculiar character,
which beat the goveriiinent sloop Usprey out of all comparison in a trial of speed ; and became almost the ablest ship and
yacht designer of his day, besides an inventor of many valuable naval appliances.'

Thomas Gray w^as a native of Leeds, and as a boy had seen Blenkinsopp's famous locomotive at work on the Middleton
cogged railroad. He was one of the first to advocate the building of a 'general iron road,' more especially one between
Liverpool and Manchester, but shared the usual fate of prophets in his own country, and died poverty-stricken and
broken-hearted in 1848 (/). JV. B.).

Thfi above work however, which first appeared in 1822, may be said to have materially contributed towards familiarising
the idea of a general railway system, although his own plan— cog wheels on cog rails— proved as impracticable as un-
necessary.

The above edition contains some interesting plates of railway carriages, and plans of a ' General Iron Rail-way for
Great Britain and Ireland '.

scarcity.

was his proper province. In his preface to the 'Principles,' after being at some pains to prove himself a Whig, he
declared his intention of proposing a philosophy, English, Cantabrigian, and Clarensian, which he ventured to call
the ' Greenian ', because his name was not much worse in the letters which composed it, than those of Galileo and

'Gregory St. Vincent is the greatest of circle-squarers, and his investigations led him into many truths: he found
the property of area of the hyperbola which led to Napier's logarithms being called hyperbolic. Montucla says of him,
with sly truth, that no one has ever squared the circle with so much genius, or, excepting his principal object, with so
much success. His reputation, and the many merits of his work, led to a sharp controversy on his quadrature, which
ended in its complete exposure by Huygens and others.'— Pro/, de Morgan.

' He discovered the expansion of log (1 + x) in ascending powers of x, . . . In the Opus Geometricrim he used
indivisibles.'— jr. W. R. Ball.

His method dudvs plani in planum, employed in Book VII of the above work, is important in connexion with the
invention of the differential calculus.

'It was the first textbook composed on gravitational principles, and remodelling astronomy in conformity with
physical theory. Newton thought highly of it, and communicated for insertion in it his ' lunar theory ', long the guide of
practical astronomers in determining the moon's motions. The discussion in the preface, in which the doctrine of
gravitation was brought into credit on the score of its antiquity, likewise emanated from Newton.'— D. N. B.

All the above editions contain the celebrated ' Canon Triangulorum ', * the first table of its kind published, which did
for sines and tangents what Briggs di I for natural numbers.'— D. N. B.

' The honour of the invention of Logarithms, next to the Lord of Merchiston, and our Mr. Briggs, belongeth to Master
Gunter, who exposed their numbers upon a straight line ' .—Oughtred.

' Gunter was the first to use the terms cosine, cotangent and cosecant for the sine, tangent, and secant of the comple-
ment of an arc. To him are also due the invention of the surveying-chain, a quadrant, and a scale, and the first observa-
tion of the variation of the compass . The name of Gunter' s Scale, or Gunter' s Lines, is usually given to the 3 lines to be
seen on almost any sector, and marked N, S, T, meaning the lines of logarithmic numbers, of logarithmic sines, and of
logarithmic tangents. . . . Many rough problems in areas, heights, cubic contents, and other matters, may be performed
through the agency of Gunter's Scale '.

• Gunter introduced a simple form of slide rule, or as he called it, a ' line of numbers ' which provided a mechanical
method for finding the product of two numbers.'— IT. W. R. Ball.

First Edition of the collected work. It is the author's most important work, and may be said to have laid the
foundation of vegetable physiology. ♦ Much of his work was devoted to the study of the loss of water which plants
suffer by evaporation, and to the means by which the roots make good this loss. In these subjects many of his experi-
ments remain of fundamental importance. . . . Finding that gas could be obtained from plants by dry distillation, he
was led to believe that gas might be condensed or in some way changed into the substances found in plants. In thus
recognising that the air may be a source of food to plants, he was a forerunner of Ingenhousz and de Saussure. ... In
first opening the way to a correct appreciation of blood pressure, Hales's work may rank second in importance to Harvey's
in founding the modern science of physiology.'— Francis Darwin, F.R.S. .,. ^

' He not only exactly measured the amount of blood pressure under varying circumstances, the capacity of the heart,
the diameter of the blood-vessels and the like, but also by an ingenious method measured the rate of flow of blood in the
capillaries in the abdominal muscles and lungs of a frog.'— Sir M. Foster.

A passage in the first volume shows him to have known in one of its aspects the important phenomenon called Osmosis
— completely recognised and explained only in 1877 by Wilhelm Pfeiffer.

8867 HAMILTON (Sir William Rowan, Royal Astronomer of Ireland) Lectures on Quaternions :

I ~ containing a Systematic Statement of a New Mathematical Method, with some Geometrical and

Physical Applications, only edition, with diagrams, thick 8vo. cl., uncut (very scarce),

£2. 7* 6d Dublin, 1853

This important work embodies the author's invention of quaternions, ' giving him right to rank in originality and insight
with Diophantus, Descartes, and La Grange ' [R. E. Anderson). The Introduction (pp. 64) is especially valuable as giving
an historical account of it.

' Professor Wallace, etc. etc. etc. with very kind regards from the author.'— Inscr. on title.

' [n 1835 Hamilton published his 'Theory of Algebraic Couples.' He regarded algebra 'as being no mere art, nor
language, nor primarily a science of quantity, but rather as the science of order of progression.' Time appeared to him as
the picture of such a progression. Hence his definition of algebra as the science of pure time.'— Pro/. Gajori.

' Applying the laws of optics he proved that under certain circumstances a ray of light passing through a crystal will
emerge not as a single or double ray but as a cone of rays. This theoretical deduction involved the discovery of two laws
of light ; and under the mathematical aspects was pronounced by Sir John Herschel to be 'a powerful and elegant piece
of analysis ', while Prof. Airy, on the physical side, said ' it had made a new science of optics '.' — D. N. B.

Many of the most characteristic of Sir William Hamilton's uncompromising criticisms, including the ' Edinburgh '
review of Victor Cousin, according to Lord Jeffrey ' the most unreadable thing that ever appeared in the Review and
' sheer nonsense ', and ' On the Study of Mathematics as an Exercise of Mind ' (pp. 78), a sharp attack on Dr. Whewell,
and another on Professor de Morgan ' as a logical critic and reasoner ', who replied to it at length in his Budget of

The author, a member of the firm of Charles Mackintosh & Co., of London (the eponymous originators of mackintoshes),
was the founder of the indiarubber trade in England, and may even be held remotely responsible for the motor-car
pandemonium. His chief inventions were those of ' masticated ' indiarubber, and of hard indiarubber, and in connexion
■with vulcanised indiarubber.

' Although Hancock was not the inventor of vulc anising in the strictest sense of the word, he first showed that
sulphur alone is sufficient to effect the change, where as Goodyear employed other substances in addition. Hancock
also discovered that if the vulcanising process is conti nued, and a higher temperature employed, a horny substance,
now called vulcanite or ebonite, is produced '.— D. N. B.

Draught of the Wheels of a Clock, etc., a Manuscript, wholly in Harrison's handwriting-,
neatly written on 1^3 pp. ofioriting-paper, sm. 4to. old vellum^ £4. 4* Saec. XVIII.

The second part of the manuscript (pp. 77-143) treats of the author's scale of music, and the whole appears to be the
original MS. of ' A Description concerning such Mechanism as will afford a nice and true Mensuration of Time, together
with some Accounts of the Attempts for the Discovery of the Longitude by the Moon ; as also an Account of the
Discovery of the Scale of Music,' published in 1775.

8958 The Principles of Mr. Harrison's Time-Keeper, with Plates of the same, published

by Order of the Commissioners of Longitude, toith 10 folding plates on copper, 4to. sewn (rare),
£1. Is 1767

8959 Another Copy, contemporary hf. calf, £\.3sQd

The fullest account published descriptive of Harrison's famous 4th chronometer (preserved with the three preceding
time-pieces at Greenwich Observatory), for which he received the parliamentary grant of £20,000.

The preface and ' Notes taken at the Discovery of Mr. Harrison's Time-Keeper' were written by Nkvil Maskelyne,

pr., F.R.3.

8960 : Mr. Sanderson's Mechanicks: a Transcript of the Manuscript Lectures on

Mechanics by Nicholas Saunderson, F.B.S., wholly and very neatly written on 304
>ages, with numerous diagrams, by John Harrison when a young man, with some
IS. additions by him written at an advanced age, sm. 4to. old calf £10. 10* [c. 1710]

An exceedingly interesting manuscript, which may be said to have been the basis of Harrison's mechanical knowledge.
Dr. Samuel Smiles, in his biographical sketch on Harrison, refers to the above MS. in the following words : ' In the
meantime Harrison eagerly improved every incident from which he might derive further information. There was a
clergyman who came every Sunday to the village [Barrow, near Barton-on-Humber] to officiate in the neighbourhood ;
and having heard of the sedulous application of the young carpenter, he lent a manuscript copy of Professor Saunderson's
discoveries [recte lectures] . The blind professor had prepared several lectures on natural philosophy for the use of his
students, but they were never intended for publication. Young Harrison now proceeded to copy them out, together with
the diagrams. Sometimes, indeed, he spent the greater part of the night in writing or drawing."
The above is the actual MS. copy prepared by Harrison himself.

8961 A True and Full Account of the Foundation of Musick, or, as principally therein,

of the Existence of the Natural Notes of Melody, AN" UNPUBLISHED MANUSCBIPT,
neatly tvritten on 182 pp., and wholly in the handwriting of John Harrison, 4to. old
vellum, £5. 5s [c. 1770]

Harrison besides being an expert mechanician was also a noted musician, the only work published by him on the
subject being however an ' Account of the Discovery of the Scale of Music ', added as an Appendix to his ' Description
concerning such Mechanism as will afford a nice and true Mensuration of Time ', published in 1775, thus giving all the
more interest to the above MS.

' He had a musical ear, and made experiments on sound with a curious monochord of his own invention, from which
he constructed a new musical scale or mechanical division of the octave, according to the proportion which the radius
and diameter of the circle have respectively to the circumference.' — D, N. B.

about 200 II. and including original information, in portfolio, £1. 1* S(BC. XIX.

The above Harrison manuscripts would be of great value to anyone intending to write a much-needed biography of the
inventor of the gridiron pendulum and the compensation curb in chronometers, and the first man to find a surb
means of finding the longitude at sea. The scanty biographies of him hitherto published are wholly inadequate and
incomplete, and few people have heard of the self-taught Englishman to whom the whole world has been indebted ever
since.

8965 : [Harrison (John ; grandson of * Longitude Harrison ')] Memoirs of a Trait m the

Character of George III., authenticated by Official Papers and Private Letters in Possession
of the Author : with Appendix of Illustrative Tracts, etc., abridged from the Origmal Work in
Manuscript, by JoHAN HORRINS [anagram], Gent., 8vo. hf. cL, uncut {scarce), I5s 1835

Dealing exclusively with the last payment of £10,000 to John Harrison, tardily and unwillingly paid by the Board of
Longitude on the intervention of King George III. himself. The work is especially directed against Dr. Maskelyne, the
Astronomer Royal, who is supposed to have shown special hostility to Harrison in order to advance his own imperfect}
method of finding the longitude by lunar distances only.

8966 THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT, neatly written on 1376 pages, 16 parts 4to.

sewn, £5. 55 ^^^' ^^^A

A very interesting manuscript, very rich in information regarding John Harrison's life and work. Only a very small
portion of it has been printed in the above published work.

8970 HAKRISON (John, ' Longitude Harrison ') : Maskelyne (Nevil, pr., f.r.s.. Astronomer Royal)
Account of the Going of Mr. John Harrison's Watch, at the Royal Observatory, from
May 6th, 1766, to March 4th, 1767, M'ith the Original Observations and Calculations of the same,
published by Order of the Commissioners of Longitude, 4to. (pp. 84), sewn {rare), lis Qd 1767

This work forms perhaps the best testimonial, against the attacks of Harrison and Mudge, to the scrupulous fairness of
the Astronomer Royal in testing the new chronometers ; though, as mentioned above, Harrison was kept out of the
covenanted reward as long as possible for reasons which some have imputed to Dr. Maskelyne. The conditions under
which they were examined agree on the whole with the Kew rules of the present day.

An appendix contains ' Observations of Equal Altitudes of the Sun taken at Portsmouth, Jamaica, and Barbadoes,
according to the Time of Mr. Harrison's Watch.'

To Dr. Hassall we almost wholly owe our deliverance from the shameless and criminal adulteration of the first half of

was itself to bring to an end without the help of the law ! The law may have to keep a sharp eye on the adulterator still
but if we are sometimes robbed we are very seldom poisoned ; so let us remember Dr. Hassall !

One of the most important early works on electricity, containing a description of the first electrical machine
WITH A GLASS CYLINDER (invented by the author), which was 'turned by a winch and rubbed by the hand ', as well as
descriptions and illustrations of an improved air-pump of his invention, founded on his discovery of the ' lateral
communication of motion in air.'

In his preface he mentions that ' the Nature and Laws of Electrical Attractions have not yet been much considered by
Any'. In the above work and his contributions to the Royal Society he carried further the tentative observations of
Dr. Gilbert and Boyle on electricity, and by his experiments may be said to have laid the foundation of that science. He
certainly was the first to discover the electric spark. He also determined the relative weight of water and air, and
ascertained the refractive index of various fluids.

The above second edition contains a Supplement (pp. 86) of 24 new experiments, which is not contained in the edition
of 1709.

' He is regarded by some historians of chemistry as the greatest chemist who preceded Lavoisier. He was the first to
point out the imperative necessity for employing the balance in chemistry, and by its means showed in many instances
the indestructibility of matter in chemical changes. He was the first to coin the word gas (derived according to some
from the Greek x^OQ, and according to others from the Dutch geest), applying it to elastic aeriform fluids. He was also
the first to take the melting-point of ice and boiling-point of water as standards for the measurement of temperature. It is
in his works that the term saturation is first employed to signify the combination of an acid with a base ; and he was one
of the earliest investigators of the chemistry of the fluids of the human body.'

Dr. William Henry is perhaps best known for having ascertained (in the above paper) the true composition of
ammonia, which had been heretofore taken as a chemical compound containing oxygen. He also established the fact
that the amount of absorption of a gas or of a mixture of gases by a fluid is dependent on the pressure. He was one of
the most cultivated members of the Manchester society of his time, and should please the age we live in for having chosen
as his doctoral thesis the entrancing subject of Uric Acid !

•Hobbes in his De Corpore produced his solutions of some ancient puzzles, especially the squaring of the circle . . . John
Wallis showed unsparingly the manifold absurdities of his solutions ... In 1666 Hobbes once more took up the hopeless
task of defending his own phantasies and attacking Wallis. Wallis published his last retort in 1672. Hobbes in 1674
again published some of his pretended solutions, and as late as 1678, at the age of ninety, fired his last shot in the Decamsron

Very little is known of this Dutch alchemist, who is supposed to haye flourished at the end of the XlVth Century,
and to have acquired great wealth in teaching his ' art '. According to Prof. H. Kopp he wrote more fully of the
philosopher's stone than was the custom with the alchemists of the time.

The above Avork includes also two works by Isaak Hollandus, the author's father, viz. Vegetabilia, and Opus Minerale.

d' H. Lloyd (very rare), £4. 4s Jo. Martyn and Ja. Allestry, 1665

' a book full of ingenious ideas and singular anticipations. It contained the earliest investigation of the ' fantastical
colours ' of thin plates, with a quasi-explanation by interference, the first notice of the ' black spot ' in soap-bubbles, and
a theory of light, as ' a very short vibrative motion ' transverse to straight lines of propagation through a ' homogeneous
medium '. Heat was defined as ' a property of a body arising from the motion or agitation of its parts,' and the real nature
of combustion was pointed out in detail, eleven years before the publication of Mayow's similar discovery ' {v. Nos. 1296-7,
ante).— Miss Agnes M. Gierke.

Besides being the first large work illustrating microscopical objects, all engraved by the author himself, it contains the
invention of the compound microscope and of the wheel barometer, an explanation of the twinkling of the stars,
important investigations on the refraction of light, and a passage first suggesting homogeneous immersion objectives for
microscopes.

copperplates, folio, large and sound copy in old panelled calf {Joints mended) ; rare, £2, 10* 1705

In the above work the author ' inferred the action of a solar repellant force in producing the tails of comets ; suggested
the motion of the sun among the stars ; and propounded correct notions as to the nature of fossils and the succession of
living things on the oarth.'— i). N. B.

In the fourth essay he explains gravitation as a 'propagated pulse' of the ether. The fifth essay (pp. 277-450) is
geologically of importance for first evolving the author's diluvial theory, A copious account of this discourse is contained
in Sir Charles Lyell's ' Principles of Geology '.

Waller's ' Life ', which is partly autobiographical, is still the chief authority on the author's life.

On p. 420 is the following curious MS. note, referring to the earthquake of July 23rd, 1690 : ' This I observed, it was on
a Saturday on 7 Afternoon, w". I was talking w"*. Queen Mary at Kensington, who thought yt. some of ye. house was

Properties ; the Doctrine of its Loci ; the Maxima and Minima of Spherical Lines and Areas :

The author was son of a private soldier in Fort George, and was a self-taught mathematician, while working as a cork-
cutter, carpenter, and flax-dresser.

' His reputation as a mathematician rests mainly on the ' Treatise on Spherical Geometry.' When discussing some loci
of spherical angles and triangles, and certain lines drawn on spherical and cylindrical surfaces, the author notes many
analogies between the properties of lines meeting on the surface of the sphere and those drawn to meet a plane
circle.'— D.N. B,

' In 1S06 Howard began to keep a meteorological register, and published the result of his observations in his * Climate of
London '. His instruments were, from a modern jioint of view, rude and insuflicieut ; but for the early years of the
century his are almost the only observations that have been preserved.' — D. N. B.

9513 A Cycle of Eighteen Years in the Seasons of Gt. Britain; deduced from Meteoro-
logical Observations at Ackworth, Yorks., 1824-41 ; compared with others before made for a like
Period (ending with 1823) in the Vicinity of London, with 5 plates, 8vo. cl., 5s 6d 1842

An elaboration of the author's theory, first mentioned in his ' Climate of London ', in 1818, of ' alternate periods of 7 and
10 years, the former ascending, the latter descending in the scale of heat.' It was Giuseppe Toaldo (v. Nos. 4868-9, ante)
who first suggested the 18 years' cycle.

9514 Essay on the Modifications of Clouds, 8vo. cl. {scarce), Qs6d 1832

'This essay gave him a scientific fame. It applies the methods of Linnaeus to the varying forms of the clouds. The

pound modifications, the best known of which is the Nimbus or rain-cloud. These names have been generally adopted by
meteorologists'. — Thomas Hodgkin, D.C.L.

' Hullmandel's practice and study resulted in the discovery of a new mode of preparing the stones. . . . Among the
many artists who availed themselves of his processes for the reproduction of their drawings were Stanfield, David Roberts,

with auto, of Brook Taylor, F.B.S., inventor of the calculus of finite differences, on title
(very rare), £4. 4s Parisiis, F. Muguet, Regis typographus, 1673

' a work that ranks second only to Newton's Principia and constitutes historically a necessary introduction to it.
The book opens with a description of pendulum clocks, of which Huygens is the inventor. Then follows a treatment of
accelerated motion of bodies falling free, or sliding on inclined planes, or on given curves— culminating in the brilliant
discovery that the cycloid is a tautochronous curve. To the theory of curves he added the important theory of ' evolutes."
... In Huygens's assumption that the common centre of gravity of a group of bodies, oscillating about a horizontal axis,
rises to its original height, but no higher, is expressed for the first time one of the most beautiful principles of dynamics,
afterwards called the principle of the conservation of vis viva. The 13 theorems at the end relate to the theory of
centrifugal force in circular motion. This theory aided Newton in discovering the law of gravitation.'— Pro/. Cajori.

' Hymers was not a mere mathematician. He travelled largely on the Continent, and was well read in Classical
authors. His books exhibit much acquaintance with the progress of mathematics on the Continent. He bequeathed all
his property to the Mayor and Corporation of Hull as a foundation for a Grammar School 'to train intelligence in
whatever rank it may be found amongst the population of the town and port '. An obscurity in the wording of the will
rendered the bequest invalid, but his heir-at-law spontaneously offered the Corporation £40,000. to fulfil Hymers's

Passenger Transit on Railways, byE. M. S. P., cr. 8vo. cl. (very scarce), 15* 1861

Intended as an antidote to Smiles's 'Life of George Stephenson", and of great interest in connexion with early railway
engineering. William James not only made the earliest survey of the Liverpool and Manchester, but elaborated schemes for
a general English railway system in 1820, and from London to Rochester, Shoreham, and Portsmouth in 1823, utilising the
old Surrey Iron Railway of 1801. After being a very wealthy man he became bankrupt and was imprisoned in the Bench,
and his son William Henry died a pensioner at Dulwich College in 1873.

' It appears to be based on family papers ' (D. N. B.), and claims for W. H. James against George Stephenson
the invention of the tubular boiler ; but this really seems to have been the water-tube boiler.

Including the author's important papers on thermo-electricity, and his propounding the law of the conservation of energy
through his determination of the mechanical equivalent of heat. His name is well-known in electrical science as the unit
of thermo-electricity, and by Joule's Law, giving the algebraic formula for determining it.

9920 On the Air Engine, roy. 4to. (pp. 16), setvn {plate wanting), 4s 6d 1851

Tliis paper contains Joule's invention of a fuel-saving liot-air engine which allows of greater ranges of temperature

than are obtainable in the steam engine. It includes an additional note (pp. 3) by Lord Kelvin : ' Synthetical
Investigation of the Duty of a Perfect Thermo-Dynamic Engine founded on the Expansions and Condensations of a

' Describing a determination made by observing the heat produced by compressing air and the energy requisite for the
compression ; the result was 798 foot lbs. In this paper he obtained the important result necessary to justify his
procedure that ' no change of teniperature occurs when air is alloAved to expand in such a way as not to develop
mechanical power'.'— ii. T. Glazebrook, F.R.S.

One of the author's most important papers, giving the results of his experiments on the production of heat by friction,
which made him one of the originators of the theory of the conservation of energy. ' The introduction to the paper
contains a very fair account of the labours of others in the same field. A long series of observations, conducted with
the utmost care, leads to the result that ' the quantity of heat capable of increasing the temperature of a pound of water
(weighed in vacuo, and taken at between 55" and (30° F) by 1° F requires for its evolution the expenditure of a mechanical
force represented by a fall of 772 lbs. through the space of one foot.' For nearly 30 years this result of Joule's stood
alone as the one satisfactory determination of a physical constant.'— /J. T. Olazebi'ook, F.R.S.

The chapter on balances and pendulums, written by Capt. Kater, is of special importance, as it inclmles the author's

important investigations and discoveries on the subject, e.g. his Balance and Compensation Pendulum.

Captain Kater's scientific career began with his share in the triancrulation of the Malabar and Coromandel coasts in
1802. He afterwards prepared standard measures for the Russian Government, and thenceforward pursued astronomy,
and also devoted much time to pendulum experiments by the adoption of the ' knife-edge ', and produced a seconds-pendulum
of extraordinary delicacy, which served in the establishment of our present national system of standard weights and
measures.

triumph was the discovery of the constitution of the ' aromatic compounds ' by Kekule himself, but which shortly
afterwards had to give way to Frankland's theory of valency.

The second work, which is hardly les.s iniportant than the Dioptrice, contains the tirst correct physiological explanation
of the defects of sight, with a theory of vision, the tirst suggestion of the undnlatory theory of light, an approximately
correct formula of refraction (pointing out the relation between the sine of incident and refracted rays), the first announce-
ment of one of the principal axioms of photometry, his method of calculating eclipses, .still in u.se, etc. etc.

'In a short chapter on conies inserted in his Pamlipomena, published in 1004, he lays down what has been called the
principle of continuity, and gives as an example the statement that a parabola is at once the limiting case of an ellipse
and of a hyperbola ; he illustrates the same doctrine by reference to the foci of conies (the word focin^ was introduced by
him) ; and he also explains that parallel lines should be regarded as meeting at infinity. He introduced the use of the
eccentric angle in discussing properties of the ellipse.'— ir. W. R. Ball.

Original Edition of Kepler's second great work (' his chief work'— ir. W. 11. Ball), containing for the first time his
'third law' : The .square of a planet's periodic time is proi-ortional to the cube of its mean distance from the sun. As
is well known, his three laws formed the groundwork of Newton's discoveries, and are the starting point of modern
astronomy.

It is dedicated to James I. The passage ' fidei defensor inter Chiisti fideles' is inked in the second copy.

This was the only volume ever published by Hansch, who bought the whole of Kepler's MSS. for 100 florins, and
received 4000 Horins from the Emperor Charles VI. for editing the aDove volume. A proposed second volume was never
published, as no further funds were Ibrthcoming from the Emperor.

Hansch afterwards sold the collection in Frankfort for S28 florins, where it was discovered by v. Murr, and purchased,
at Euler's instigation, by the Empress Catherine of Russia for 2000 roubles. Frisch's edition is based on it.

Father Kircher was one of the foremost scientists of Germany during the XVIIth Century, and although his works
do not contain many new discoveries, they are invaluable for giving au encyclopedic view of the sciences treated as they
were known in his time. For the historian of physical science they are indispensable.

' Klaproth's researches in analytical chemistry were rightly looked upon at that time as patterns for the younger
generation of chemists. They aimed at establishing the composition of minerals by means of improved analytical
methods, and thereby laying the foundation for a chemical classification of them. His observations were so exact as to
result in the discovery of various elements and earths, viz. uranium, titanium, and zirconia, while at the same time he
corrected and amplified results which had been arrived at by others on many new substances.'— Pro/. E. v. Meyer.

The scientific account of the tremendous volcanic outbreak in the Eastern Archipelago, probably the greatest eruption
on record, which destroyed on the spot or by a resulting tidal wave 36,500 lives, and set up a series of concentric atmo-
spheric waves which travelled at least three times round the world. It produced for more than two years, by dust
thrown up to an immense height, the most lovely atmospheric effects throughout the world, which were painted for their
beauty by an artist at CheLsea, Mr. Ascroft. before anyone had gnes-sed to what cause they were due.

Included in the volume are: Volcanic Phenomena and the Ejected Materials, by J. W. Judd, f.r.s. ; Air Waves and
Sounds caused by the Eruption, by Lt.-Gen'. Sir R. Strachev ; Sei-^^mic Sea Waves, by Sir W. J. L. Wharton ; Unusual

' The Abbe ' La Caille, who, like Franz Liszt, never proceeded beyond Deacon's Orders, is perhap.s best known for his
four years' astronomical mission to the Cape of Good Hope in 1750, when he was the first to group and to name most of
the Southern constellations. According to Lalande, ' La Caille a fait a lui seul plus d'observations et de calculs que
tous les astronomes de son temps reunis. On doit admirer du moins kurs extreme exactitude, giace du soin qu'il prenait

These two works form the account of the author's geodetic mission to Peru, in conjunction with Bouguer, Juan, and
VWoa^qq. v. ante), for measuring the meridian near the equator, in co-operation with another mission sent to Lapland and
led by Maupertuis, Clairaut, and Celsius, to measure the meridian near the North Pole. The result of these two missions
first established the correctness of Newton's views of the earth having the shape of an ellipsoid— a fact previously much
doubted as the result of a faulty meridian-measurement by Cassini and Picard.

' This is the account of the scientific operations, divided into 2 parts. The first relates to the goedetical measurements,
and the second to the astronomical observations. Pp. 239-5S contain an important discussion of Picard's operations '. —

The first exhaustive treatise on the subject ever written, and still of value. The preface (pp. 48) consists of an
interesting account of its invention (unduly prejudiced in Leibniz's favour), and of its development.

'Lacroix [1765-1S43] etait un des derniers liens qui rattachaient I'ancienne Academic des Sciences k la nouvelle, et on
le v6n6rait comme un debris vivant du dix-huiti6me aikcle.'—Biogr. Gen.

Born in gr;at poverty, he was driven to science by the chance reading of Robinson Crusoe, which set him studying an
old treatise on navigation to enable him to discover his own island, and this carried him on to the serious study of
geometry at the College de France.

' The mechanical cause of the movement of all the bodies within the solar system is occasioned by the sun's moving
swiftly round his axis, and thereby projecting the rays of heavy liquid light on them in transverse lines, driving them
round his body as the sole centre, and under the Almighty Being, the cause of all our visible system,' — Preface.

' Analytical mechanics was brought to its highest degree of perfection by Lagrange. His aim is to dispose once for all
of the reasoning necessary to resolve mechanical problems, by embodying as much as possible of it in a single formula.
This he did. Every case that presents itself can now be dealt with by a very simple, highly symmetrical and perspicuous
schema ; and whatever reasoning is left is performed by purely mechanical methods. The Mechanics of Lagrange is a
stupendous contribution to the economy of thought.'— P?o/. E. Much.

Father Lana was a friend of his fellow-Jesuit Kircher {q. v. ante), and though believing with most savants of his day-
in Perpetual Motion, was a genuine observer and experimenter. He is also noteworthy as the first suggester of the.
Balloon ;see the next article), and his calculations regarding its practicability were checked and approved by Leibniz.

' The above work may be regarded as an attempt to explain various theories advanced in the Prodromo [v. infrn'^. The-
third volume, which did not appear until the author's death [out of nine volumes intended by him], is said by his.
bibliographer Eyries to be 'tr^s-rare'. It would require an explanatory volume to give an idea of this work, wliich is
truly a cyclopaedia of all sciences connected with natural philosophy.'— Libri Catalogut.

It describes a large number of 'perpetual motion' machines, while one chapter treats 'of motion which is calledi
ftlectric attraction '.

Tliis work i.s of great importance in the history of ballooning as having been the first to formulate a theory of
aerostatics. The author proposed — besides many other curious experiments— to exhaust hollow globes of copper, which^
being li-jhter than the air, were to raise the vehicle placed underneath. Plate II {No. 2421 ante) illustrates this idea,,
which, impracticable itself, nevertheless formed the basis of Montgolfier's invention.

The Reverend Doctor Lardner was a pushful person who knew how to make use of the knowledge-hunger of his time,
and impressed Thackeray as a literary quack who advertised his cyclopsedia at dinner-parties. He followed up hi.s
elopement with a lecturing tour in the United States and Cuba which brought him in £40,000., and then settled in Paris.

on ihe electric arc, simultaneously with Sir Humphry Davy, polarized electricity, his theory of diamagnetic phenomena,
etc. etc.). De la Rive was one of the founders of the electro-chemical theory of galvanism, which, slightly motlified, was
accepted by Faraday ; he was also the inventor of the first gold-plating process, for which he received a prize of SOOO
francs from the Paris Academy.

Sir John Bennet Lawes was a character of very unusual type— an Etonian and a country squire of long descent — who
was born both a chemist and a great man of business, turned his endowments to the creation of a great private fortune,
and spent the whole of that fortune in experiments for the benefit of the community. Though his great services were not
unrecognised in his lifetime he is far from being remembered as the very remarkable man he was, and is one more
illustration of the exceptional men of the Nineteenth Century in England being so many, that nearly half of them escape
notice in the crowd of their fellows.

'The reform of language eftected by Lavoisier was an indispensable prelude to the reform of [anti-phlogistic] thought.

exigencies of recent progress.'— E//ci/. Brit.

* In this work all substances are divided into elements and compounds . . . Compounds were cla«8Jfied as binary and
ternary, and these de8ignations were in great part retained later on, although it was found necessary to extend their
meaning as chemistry developed. To the binary compounds belonged the acids . . . and the oxygen compounds of the
metals, which, as bases, were placed opposite the acids . . . The principal ternary compounds were the .«alts, produced
by the combination of bases with acids . . , The advance which is shown by this classiticatiotj of chemical compounds is
very great. In place of false assumptions and designations devoid of any system, we find a correct idea of the qualitative
composition of substances, and a rational nomenclature according with it.' — ProJ. E. v. Meyer.

COLLODION PROCESS. The latter (according to J). N. B.) ' in 1S50 successfully applied collodion to photography. . . . The
first account was published in the ' Chemist ' March 1851.' Le Gray however in the preface to the above work states that
he had already made the discovery in 1849, but attachetl little importance to it, and recommends it only • sous le rai>port
de la finesse et de la rapidite.' Pp. 89-111 give a description of his collodion process. The announcement of the discovery
appeared in the English translation of 1S.50 (q. v. infru),

10687 Practical Treatise on Photography, on Paper and Glass, translated by Thomas

Cousins, post 8vo. (pp. 24), seivn (scarce), 10s Qd 1850

In the appendix the author announces his invention of the collo«lion process, which however had already been
discovered and used by Frederick Scott Archer, who unfortunately for himself never thought of taking out a patent, and
after a few years died a poor man.

'I have just discovered a process upon glass, by hydroflaoric ether, the fluoride of potassium and sotla dissolved in
alcohol 10^ mixed with sulphuric ether, and afterwards saturated with collodion ', etc. etc. etc.— i'. 24.

Important for containing the evid^-nce, as embodied in the correspondence between Leibniz and Jean Bernoulli, on the
question of the rival claims to priority of the invention of the calculus between Newton and Leibniz. It was the only
serious claim published in Leibniz's favour, and a tardy reply to the Commercium Epiatolicum {v. No. 3282 ante), which
gave the evidence in Newton's favour.

However little the merits of Leibniz's claim may be a.s to its origination, there can be no doubt as to the superiority
of his notation to Newton's fluxional one, which being stubbornly adhered to at the English universities, prevented
this country from having any important share in the progress of the calculus for more than a century after.

apud eundem, 1674
The third and last English edition, and the rarest of all, being unknown to Lowndes, Watt, and Allibone. The im-
pressions of the engravings (of which the plates were either retouched or reengraved) are unusually clear.

The work is a highly interesting storehouse (once of great popularity, and now rare in all its editions') of a multitude of
mathematical, astronomical, and physical problems. It was based on the work of Baciiet de Meziriac (v. Nos. 204 and
6901, ante), and included, besides numerous original problems by the author, some taken from Cardan ; and in its turn
formed the foundation of the Avorks of Mydorgue, Ozanam, Montucla, and Hutton.

Among the more interesting problems are, besides the one mentioned above by M. Libri : ' How to make an instrument
that helpes to heare' (the speaking tuba, the invention of which is ascribed to Sir Samuel Morland in 1671), 'a lampe
which goeth not out, though one carries it in one's pocket', several magnetical problems, including 'a secrecie in the
Magnes, for discovering things farre remote ', ' of the Tliermometer ', ' how to weigh the lightnesse of the ayre ', ' of longi-
tude and latitude ', 'how to make a clocke with one wheele', 'how to mike a perpetaall motion', etc. etc. etc.

A collection of the four memoirs on the parturbations of Uranus which led to the discovery of Neptune, with a fifth
part added: 'Est-il possible de deduire des Observations d'Uranus la Position du Plan de I'Orbite de la Planete
Troublante ? '

The discovery of Neptune by calculation and its immeiiate verification by the telescope is one of the romances of
astronomy. Le Verrier achieved the former, and communicated its exact position to Dr. Galle at Berlin, who at once
observed it. It had two results for Ls Terrier of an unusual kind for a scientist : Louis Philippe at once made him tutor
to the Comte de Paris, and the Department of the Manche elected him willy-nilly to the Legislative Assembly.

An attack on Lawes and Gilbert (qg. v. ante)), who questioned (quite rightly) Liebig's statement that plants took up
nitrogen directly from the air. Liebig defends this view, and brings forward in support peas and beans, which produced
nitrogenous food on unmanured soil. Later researches have shown that this is due to the nodules on the rootlets of these
plants, which cause, through bacterial action (symbiosis), the conversion of the nitrogen of the air into nitrogenous salts.

10855 LIFE-BOAT MODELS submitted for the PREMIUM offered by Admiral Algernon Duke
OF Northumberland, f.r.s. : Report of the Committee appointed to Examine them, \vith List
of the existing Life-Boat, Rocket, and Mortar Stations, with Abstract of the Wrecks in 1850, ivith
13 folding tinted plates by Joseph Prowse, of Woolwich Dockyard, of the models, and coloured
wreck-charts of the Northumbrian coast and of the British Islands, folio, cl. {scarce), 125 6ri 1851

The prize was awarded to James Beechino, of Great Yarmouth, whose model was that of the first self-righting lifeboat
ever built. The work was issued for presentation only.

The fourth Duke of Northumberland was a rather unusual Duke, and a noblehearted man. He entered the Navy as a
volunteer when he was twelve, and served for ten years, becoming acting-Captain of Lord Exmouth's flagship. At the
peace lie travelled in the East and was one of the early explorers of Egyptian antiquities, which led him to bear the whole
cost, till he died, of E. W. Lane's enormous Arabic Lexicon. He went out with Sir John Herschel to the Cape in 1836 for
observing the Southern Constellations, and maintained his .scientific interests to the end. But he loved his eld calling of
the sea best of all, and this led him to his lifelong work for the National Life-Boat Institution, of which the above
competition was a part. He became First Lord of the Admiralty in 1S52, and though a sailor of the old war was a pioneer
of steam power in the Navy. The only regrettable action of his life was the redressing, at great expense, of the interior
of the great feudal castle of Alnwick in the finicking mode of the age of Louis Quatorze.

^ Lord Avebury's father was a striking example of the union of great business ability with success in exact science. He

♦ showed the former in piloting the family bank through the bad panics of 1S47 and 1857— his death saved him from the
I terrors of Black Monday in 1866. ' His laborious researches in physical astronomy were mainly directed towards the
■ simplification of methods ; and he introduced uniformity into the calculation of lunar and planetary perturbations by

' Deluc made very numerous experiments on the atmosphere ; inquiring into the modes of production of clouds, rain,
hail, dew, etc. ... He enunciated a point of the highest importance when he endeavoured to show that the amount of
water-vapour in the atmosphere, or in any closed vessel, is independent of the density of the air in any other gaseous sub-
stance in which it is ditfuswi, a theory which was subsequently proved moreclearly by John Dalton.' — Prof. W. J. Horrison.

Perhaps the author's most important alchemical work, and according to Prof. E. v. Mayer, one of the few genuine
ones of the many works attributed to him.

Raymond Lull's unfortunate reputation as an alchemist has unhappily marred or obscured what should have been
Ills true fame as a natural philosopher, and his glory, almost unique in the later Middle Ages, as a Christian missionary.
As the former he may be con8idere<l as a forerunner of Francis Bacon, while his greatest work, the Ara Gencralis .live
Magna, was afterwards developed by Giordano Bruno. As the latter he shone with a zeal and bravery which few have
Surpassed before or since, and the tortures he underwent on his preaching Journeys to the Muslims of Tunis and Algeria
were only ende<l by his death by stoning at Bou<,^ie in the year 1315— a Medieval union of science and faith ;,doritied by a
l)athetie heroism whose memory has long been let to fade away.

are of a height of more than 1000 feet, while several are over 2000. The actual construction never got beyond the four
great steel legs, which after being an eyesore in the landscape and a left-hande<l monument to the late Sir Edwaid Watkin
were blown up with dynamite as a useless white elephant a few years ago.

for his romantic pan^itage, but for much good scientific work. He was also noteworthy for having, when appointed by

intersection of a side of the one with a side of the other be made to travel along a straight line, the intersection of the other

on the number of imaginary roots of an equation, suggestetl by Newton's theorem ; and of one containing the well-known
rule for finding equal roots by means of the derived equation. In this book negative quantities are treated as being not
less real than positive quantities.'— JT. W. R. BcUl.

' The first logical and systematic exposition of the method of fluxions. The cause of it was an attack of [Georgel
Berkeley [Bp. of Cloyne] on the principles of the infinitesimal calculus [v. .Yo.s. 6144-5 ante]. In it he gave a proof of the

theorem that /(x) =f(o) + xf (o) +-775-/" (0) + ... He also gave the correct theory of maxima and mirinia, and rules

for finding and discriminating multiple points. This treatise is however especially valuable for its solution of numerous
problems in geometry, statics, the theory of attraction, and astronomy'.— H'^. W. R. Ball. It also contains in a revised
form the author's prize essay on the gravitational theory of tides.

' Gifted with a genius for geometrical invpf-tigation second only to Newton's, Maclaurin had no need to abandon
Newton's methods in favour of any easier ; and it was nattirally more gratifying to his patriotism to develop the fluxional
calculus to its fullest extent than to resort to the difterential methods in use on the Continent. Tlie re«ult was that
Maclaurin, the one mathematician of first rank trained in Great Britain in the Eighteenth Century, confirmed Newton's
exclusive influence over British mathematics ; and for three generations it was left to Continental mathematicians to
develop the modern methods of mathematical analysis '. — D. N. B.

He sprang from ancestors long settled on the wild island of Tiree, the nearest land to the Skerryvore Lighthouse, who
had removed to Inveraray a<ter the Civil Wars. On the outbreak of the 'Forty-five he organised thedefences of Edinburgh
against the Jacobite troops, and worked day and night in planning and superintending the hastily raised fortifications.
The result broke down his health, and he died prematurely in June, 174(5, aged forty -eight— the j^cr/errv/ Mm ingeniunt

Hegelian toreorcanise the British Army in the Twentieth in the person of the present Lord Chancellor.

did all that he could to reconcile the continually augmenting discrepancies between theory and facts ; he paid no heed to
proportions by weight, for it was only in this way that he could maintain the phlogistic hypothesis. And even although
it was proved to ba erroneous and untenable several years before his death, he was still unable to renounce it.' —

Medicale, couronne le 6 Aoiit 1783, par I'Academie Royale des Sciences, Belles-Lettres et Arts
de Rouen, 8vo. sewn (rare), 15* 1784

This work has the merit of being one of the first to treat soberly the subject of electro-therapeutics at a time when
electricity was thought to be a panacea for every known disease, and when generally far more harm (referred to on p. 100.
than good was done by the, electrical enthusiasts.

11386 [ ] Notions Elementaires d'OPTlQUE ; with 2 copperplates, 8vo. boards, uncut {slightly

Though now chiefly known as one of the most hideous monsters of the Terror, and as the author of L'Ami du Peuple,
the revolutionary journal, Marat was previously the author of works of no small scientific value. He was one of the first
to attack Newton's emission theory of light— a heresy which prevented his election to the French Academy. He
translated Newton's Opticks into French (q. v. post).

The above work gives the author's own theory — a curious variety of the corpuscular one.

This, like the rest of the author's works, is full of original ideas and experiments. Pp. 345-53 contain an interesting
chapter, ' Des Ph6nomenes electriques relatifs a I'Ebranlement de la Lumiere,' in which he attempts an explanation of the
phenomena.

In this work the author attempts to give, by his theory of a Jlnide igne, a mechanical explanation of the phenomena
of heat.

Marat stayed many years in England, and some time, as a teacher of French, in Edinburgh, where he published in 1774
a revolutionary pamphlet ' The Chains of Slavery.' On the recommendation of certain Edinburgh physicians he received
the degree of M.D. from St. Andrews University. According to Chambers's Encyclopaedia, he was already dying of 'a
loathsome skin disease ', contracted while hiding in the sewers of Paris from Lafayette's police, when he received his
death-blow from Charlotte Corday. Tlie last two works contain the Privilege from Louis XVI. to his * bien ame, le
sieur Marat', who afterwards was the most ruthless promoter of his murder.

All his scientific works are now very rare.

Matthie.ssen's invcBtigations into the electric conduclivityof copper were of great importance from the rapid expansion
of telegraphy.

' He showed that the discrepancies of previous observations and the low conductivity of certain samples of copper
supposed to be pure were due to the presence of minute quantities of other elements.'— D. N. B.

Heidelberg, 1898

11689 MAYER (Hermann) Clavis Analytica zur Bestimmung der Mineralien : nach einer
einfachen und sichern Methode, nebst einer vollstiindigen Cliaracteristik, 2 vols. 8vo. in 1, hf. blue

Longitudinaria? [curd Nevil Maskelyne, sac, S.R.S.] ; with 2 plates, 4to. hf. brown calf neat
(RARE), with bookplate of Lord Blantyre, 12* G* Londini, 1770

11691 Another Copy, old half calf {joints broken, and some II. soiled or mended), with

numerous additions to the Tables in a neat contemporary hand, 10.9

Mas»kelyne'8 preface, and the explanatory matter, are given in both Latin and English.

FiBST Edition of these celebrated tables, for which the author was recommended by Bradley as worthy to share in the
prize ottered by Parliament for finding the longitude at sea. IJy Act of Parliament Mayer's widow was awarded £30CM).

' Mayer was the first who constructed lunar tables of sutticient accuracy for the great practical purpose of finding the
longitude at sea. This he did by means of Euler's theory and a skilful discussion of observations.'— Pro/'. R. Grant.

11692 Theoria LUNiE juxta Systema Newtonianum, edita Jussu Pra3fectoruni Rei

Longitudinariie ; with diagrams, 4to. (pp. 58), sew^x. Is 6d ibid., 1767

11693 MAYER (Johann Tobias, Univ. Erlangen ; son of the above) Grundlicher und
AUSFLHRLiCHER Unterricht zur PRAKTiscHEN Geometrie, 2. vermehrte Auflage; within

Jolding plates, 3 vols. 12nio. boards. Is Qd Goettingen, 1792-5

A treatise on surveying and surveying instruments, and according to Prof. Moritz Cantor ' the most important work
on its subject published during the Second half of the ISth century '.

11694 MAYER (Julius Robert v.) Beitrage zur DYNAMiKdes Himmels, inpopularer Darstellung,
erste Ausgrabe, 8vo. hf. cl. (scarce), os lleilbronn, 1848

In this work the author shows that the sun would long have lost his radiating energy were it not renewed by swarms
of meteorites constantly falling in. He also developed in it the theory of tidal friction independently of Kant, who
first propounded it.

11695 DieMECHANiK der Warme, erste Ausgabe, 8vo. hf. morocco, with auto, of Prof.

Lloyd Tanner, F.R.S. , 45 Stuttgart, 1867

a collection of the author's works, viz., the above Beitrage, ' Bemerkungen liber die Kriifte der unbelebten Natur,' * Die
organische Bewegimg in ihrem Zusammenhange mit dera Stoffwechsel ', ' Ueber das Fieber', and 'Bemerkungen Uber
das mechanische Aequivalent der Warme'. The last, which was originally published in Liebig's Annalen in 18«2, or
5 years before Helmholtz's paper {v. No. 9109, ante), first established the principle of the conservation of energy. It
remained neglected (and partly ridiculed) by the scientific world, until Prof. Tyndall called attention to its importance in
18G2, in a lecture before the Royal Institution.

So little was then known of its author that Poggendorff stated in his Handivorterhuch in 1863 that he was ' supposed
to have died in a lunatic asylum in 1858.' Mayer actually died 20 years later in 1878, after a belated and tardy recognition
of the merits of his work.

11696 MAYNARD (Henry N., manager Viaduct Works, Crumlin, Mon.) The VlADUCT WORKS'
Handbook: a Collection of Examples from Actual Practice of Viaducts, Bridges, etc., with
Tables of Prices, Weights, and other Information useful in designing and estimating Wrought
and Cast- Iron Work, with tinted folding Jront. of the Crumlin Viaduct, and numerous full-page
and other woodcuts, roy. 8vo. cl.y Is 6d 1868

Added is a Description and Illustration of the author's Patent Iron Abutment for Bridges (1871).

11697 MAYOW (John, m.d. ; f.r.s.) Medico-Physical W^orks : a Translation of Tractatus V
Medico-Physici, unth portrait, and 6 plates {2 folding), cr. 8vo. cl., 4s Edin., 1907

Mayow may be said to have laid the foundation of anti-phlogistic chemistry (although it was not fully developed until
Lavoisier) by liis theory of combustion contained in the first treatise. He was moreover the first to give a good physio-
logical explanation of the function of breathing, and the discoverer of the double articulation of the ribs with the
spine. He also gave a theory of chemical aflinity, and a mechanical explanation of the act of jumping.

11698 [MEAD (— )] The Construction of Maps and Globes. I. Contains the various Ways of
projecting Maps, exhibited in 15 different Methods, with their Uses. II. Treats of making divers
Sorts of Globes, both as to the Geometrical and Mechanical Work ; with Appendix wherein the

important rendu a la litterature inusicale'.— /•ctis-.

The author was a well-known crank, who in turn offered for sale his supposed discovery of constructing the triremes
of the ancients to the French government, and his revision of the Old Testiment, after a novel method of his own, to the
British government for the paltry sum of £20,000. He also pretended to have discovered the authentic text of St.
Jerome's commentary on the Book of Job, supposed to have been lost, for which he refused an offer of 10,000 florins.

Following an invitation to Sweden by the learned and eccentric Queen Christina, Meiboni caused the musical
instruments of the ajicients to be made from instructions contained in the above work in order to revive the ancient
Greek music before the Swedish court. As he further insisted on improving the performance by the accompaniment of his
own harnh voice, the attempt caused great nierrimeut. He considered himself insulted, and in a lit of rage boxed the
ears of the Queen's phvsician. which at once put a stop to the revival of ' classic' music, and to his further stav in Sweden.

very neat XVI. Century hand (very rare), £3. 15* 1550-4

The above lirst edition of the Doctriiue, the only independent scientific work published by Luther's fellow-labourer in
the Reformation, is excessively rare, and was unknown to Graesse, Poggendorff, and Kiistner. The former quotes the
editions of 1555, 1559, and 15S7, while the other two only knew an edition of 15SL The work is not mentioned at all by-
Brunetand Ebert.

According to Kiistner, the first book of the Doctrina contains a more lucid exposition of astronomy than is to be found
in many treatises published during the XVIII. Century.

Melanchthon also wrote prefaces to Arati Ph8enomena,1521, Purbachii TheoricsR, 1534 [v. No. 35t'.2, ante'], Schoneri
Tabuhc AstronomiciTj, 1536, Alfragani Rudimenta Astronoraica, 1537, Joannis de Sacro Bosco Libellus de Sphaera,

The work contains memoirs by Laplace (1), Berthollet (20), Gay-Lussac (10), Thenard (10), Biot (9), Humboldt (3),
Malus (3), Dulong (2), de Candolle (2), Descostils (2), Berard (1), and Arago (1). That by Laplace is ' Sur le mouveraent
de la lumiere dans les milieux diaphanes ' ; among Gay-Lussac's is the iniportant one ' Sur la combinaison des substances
gazeuses ' (vol. II, p. 207), in which he first expounded the law of volumes named after him. One of Dulong's memoirs
gives an account of his discovery of chloride of nitrogen (the most powerful and unstable explosive known), which cost
him an eye and three fingers.

The above copy belonged to F. J. D. Arago, a MS. note in vol. I, in Prof. Story-Maskelyne's handwriting, reading :

The author's first publishetl work. It is rare, and was unknown to Poggendorff, Prof, de Morgan, Graesse, Brunet, and
the author's biographer in Biogr. Gen., nor was there a copy in the Libii Library.

The work is of interest as being entirely devoted to fractions. According to G. Libri, the author's Geometrice Speciosoe
Elementa, published in 1659, dealt with Newton's binomial theorem— a palpable mistake, as Sir Isaac Newton did not
publish it until 16G9 in his De AnaXysi per Aequationes.

' An exceedingly interesting collection, Avhich is of very rare occurrence, and seldom to be found complete. Father
Mersenne was in constant correspondence with all the most celebrated men of his time. e. g., Galileo, Torricelli, Pascal,
Descartes, Fermat, Rnberval, and others, and in this collection has publishul, besides his own writings, most important
works and letters of his friends not to be found elsewhere, and including not only their discoveries but also their
scientific quarrels '. — Lihi'i Catalogne.

The work consists of the following independent treatises, with separate titles : De Mensuris, Ponderibus et Nummis ;
Hydraulica Pneumatica ; Ars Navigandi ; Harmonia Thecrica, Practica [Musica], et Mechanica Phsenomena;
Ballislica et Acontismologia ; Universae Geometrise, Mixtseque Mathematicse Synopsis, et bini Refractionum Demon-
stratarum Tractatus ; Jsovse Observationes Physico-Mathematicte, quibus accessit Aristarchus Samnius de Mundi
Systemate.

Of special importance is his suggestion (Phtenomena Hydraulico-Pneumatica, p. 96) of a reflecting telescope, by
recommending the use of two concave mirrors opposed to each other.

' The preface to the Cogitata contains a statement (possibly due to Fermat), that, in order that 2P - 1 may be prime, the
only values oip, not greater than 257, which are possible are 1, 2. 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 31, 67, 127, and 2')7 ; the number 67
is probably a misprint for 61. With this correction the statement appears to be true, and has been verified for all
except 21 values of p. . . . Tlie theory of peifect numbeis depends diiectly on that of Mersenne's numbers'. —

' He introduced the principle that the probability of a compound event is the product of the probabilities of the single
events composing it, and the whole subject, Todhunter remarks, ' owes more to him than to any other mathematician,
with the single exception of Laplace'.' — Miss Agnes M. Gierke.

' His Avork on the theory of probability surpasses anything done by any other mathematician except Laplace. His
principal contributions are his investigations respecting the Duration of Play, his Theory of Recurring Series, and his
extension of the value of Bernoulli's theorem by the aid of Stirling's theorem. — Prof. Cajori.

' De Moivre's most important work. He demonstrated in it his method of recurring series, created ' imaginary trigono-
metry ', through the invention of the theorem known by his name, and generalised Cotes's 'Theorem on the Property of
the Circle ' (p. 17). Naude's presentation of the book to the Berlin Academy of Sciences produced the election by acclama-
tion of its author as a member. Leibnitz, who made de Moivre's acquaintance in London, vainly endeavoured to secure
for him a professorial position in Germany ; and his foreign origin similarly barred the way to his promotion in England.
So he continued all his life to support himself by teaching, and answering questions on the chances of play and the values
of annuities. Yet he was one of the commissioners appointed by the Royal Society in 1712 to arbitrate on the claims of
Newton and Leibnitz to the invention of the infinitesimal calculus'.— ikfiss Agnes M. Clerke.

recoil being used to raise a counterweii^ht which would bring the gun up again to the firing position. This method had
the further advantage, that it lessened the strain on the platfirm ' -Col. E. M. Lloyd, R.E.

The author enjoyed a great reputation as an astrologer, and the fultilment of his horoscopes (ejj. the deaths of
Gustavus Adolphus, Cardinal de Richelieu, Cinq-Mars, etc.) gained him the patronage of many eminent personages of tlie
time. He was often consulted by Cardinals Richelieu and Mazarin, the latter of whom allowed him a pension
of 2,000 livres, which (contrary to his usual practice) was paid regularly. His most eminent service to science was an
attempt to determine the longitude by lunar and stellar distances.

' The arithmetical machines, originally presented to Charles IF. in 1602 [sic], were manufactured for sale by Humphry
Adanson, who lived with Jonas l^oore in the Tower of London. By means of them the four fundamental rules of

This copy is from the library of George Rennie, c.e., f.r.s., and belonged originally to William Ludlam, pr.,
mathematician (1717-88), who has written on the flyleaf an account of the author's water engine at Windsor, which ' raised
water from the Thames i30 feet above the top of Windsor Castle at the rate of CO barrels per hour by eight men ' (/>. N. B).

Ths above is a very rare, if not unique, i^-.fw, not only from having a i)ortrait added, but also for having, in place of the
' Almanac Perpetuel ' usually occurring, a ' Table des Pieds Quarrez et Pieds Cubiques '.

Tliis is the author's most important work (no English edition of which has ever been published), and includes his
invention of the y>ZK?i5rerj)itmj), containing the gland and sturting box— a contrivance often erroneously attributed to
.James Watt. The appendix contains ' Reflexions tres-curieuses sur la Proportion Continue', 'Table pour la Quadrature
du Corcle ', and Huit Problemcs de Mechanique proposezaux plus habiles Machinistes du Siecle',

' Morland was one of the chief mechanicians of his time. His most important discoveries were in connexion with
liydrostatics. The problems connected with raising water to a height by mechanical means were receiving a great
amount of attention during the middle of the XVII. century, and to the discoveries in this fleld (in which Morland bore an
important part) are largely attributed the subsequent rapid development of the steam-engine and the accelerated rate of
evolution in mechanical science generally.'— D. N. B.

In the original MS. of the alK)ve work (preserved in the British Museum) the author made an important suggestion for
employing steam for working pumps, which made him one of the first to demonstrate the practical utility of steam-power.

' The plunger i)ump was invented by Sir Samuel Morland, and patented by him in 1G75. The best feature in Sir
Samuel's invention is the stutting-box. This last-named contrivance, whose universal utility is testified by its very
general use, and without which the steam engine could scarcely exist, is undoubtedly the invention of this distinguished
and ingenious man, and alone ought to render his name immortal '.— Willw/m Pole, F.R S.

This paradox (which is not budgeted by Prof, de Morgan) attempts to explain the course of comets in agreement with
the author's geocentric system.

'Zadkiel 'Tao Sze' as a Lieutenant in the Navy seems queer nowadays, but such he was before he took up with
astrology. Whether he was a fool or a charlatan can never be proved ; but he showed much bravery on active service
before he was twenty, and was equally brave in saving life afterwards. He became a stubborn paradoxer as well as the
most popular prophetaster of his time.

' a standard text-book on the subject.'— P?-o/, Mahan.

This edition contains four additional articles in the Appendix, which include one ' On the Rolling of Ships ', containing
the formula by which the dynamical stability of all ships of war has since been calculated, and * one of the most ex-
tensively useful results of Moseley's nxathematical labours ' (D. N. B.).

Another is the article on the observed motion of the lead on the roof of Bristol Cathedral under changes of
temperature, ' which caused him to advance the tlieory that the motion of glaciers might be similarly explained.'— D. N. B.

'Moseley's chief merit is the introduction into English of the methods of the French elasticians, notably Poncelet's
conception of work. . . . The book contains a good deal which might be useful even to the practical student of to-^ay, for
many of the problems considered are not to be found in the ordinary text-books.'— Tod/nfnter £ Pearson' s History of

experimented on within recent years with negative results.

Although one of the first to treat analytically such subjects as molecular x)hypics and ether problems, the author

This copy belonged to Dr. Nevil Maskei.vne, the Astronomer Royal, and contains in his liandwriting ' From the
author of the Appendix ' on flyleaf, as well as corrections and numerous long pencil notes on margin, in which he replies
to the objections advanced against him.

' These [Mudge's green and blue chronometers] were submitted to the same rigorous tests as the first, but like it, they
were described by the astronomer royal as not having satisfied the refjuirements of tlie act. A controversy ensued, in
which it was stated that Maskelyne had not given the timekeepers fair trial, but that they had gone better in other hands
both before and after the period during which they had been under observation. Mudge's case was strongly urged in a
pamphlet issued by his eldest son, entitled ' A Narrative of Facts ', 17!i2. Maskelyne retorted in ' An Answer to a
Narrative of Facts ' {v. ,Vo. 11542 ante), and the controversy closed with the younger Mudge's ' Reply to the Answer '
(1792). ... It is curious that Harrison entertained similar grievances against Maskelyne {v. Nus. 8965-G and 897(>, mite), and
it was currently supposed that the astronomer royal had a scheme of his own for finding the longitude by lunar tables
which disposed him to apply ultra-rigorous tests to the chronometers.'— Z).A''.B.

• The publication of this splendid monograph fonns a notable epoch in the history of modern geology, and well entitles
its author to be enrolled among the founders of the science. For the first time, the succession of fossiliferous
fonnations below the Old Red Sandstone was shown in detail. Their fossils were enumerated, described, and /igured.
It was now possible to carry the vision across a vast series of ages, of which hitherto no definite knowledge existed, to
mark the succession of their organisms, and thus to trace backward, far further than had ever before been possible, the
history of organized existence on this globe.'— Sir A. Geikie..

lighting at Philips & Lee's mill. This paper is the earliest practical essay on the subject, Tlie Rumford gold medal,
bearing the inscription 'ex fumo dare lucem', was awarded to Murdock for this paper, which concludes with these

if the bill, charging Murdock with plagiarism, he issued on 4 May 1809 ' A Letter to a Member of Parliament.' This

arithmetic of the day. The extraction of the square and cube root could also be performed by their help, in cou.junctiou

as to theirs/ application of the gas, as an
economical substitute for oils and tallow,
in the production of light for public and
private purposes. This is what I have
claimed, and for which I have been
honoured with the Royal Society's gold
medal ; disgraced, I should rather say,
if I have no claim to the merit thus
imputed to me.

But how has this committee stripped
me of my claim ? Did the German
Diller, by his philosophical fire-works at
the Lyceum, by " his large lustres of
little flames in the centre of the room,"
exhibited for the amusement of the
curious and ignorant, make the ap-
plication of gas to purposes of public
and private utility ; guarding, as I
am infonned he did, at the same
lime, his mode of proceeding, with all
the mercenary caution of a juggler ?

An account of the application oftficGAnfrom Coal
to a'commicat purposes. Inj Mr. Willmm
MuRDOCK, read before the Royal Society, on the
^5th February, ISO?,, and printed in the Phi"
losophical Transactions for that year.

The facts and results intended to be corumunicated in
tliis paper, are founded upon observations madp during
«^he present winter at the Cotton Manufactory of Messrs.
Philips and Lee at Manchester, where the light obtained
by the combustion of the Gas from Coal is used upon a very
large scale ; the Apparatus for its production and appli-
cation having been prepared by me at the Works of Messrs.
Boulton, Watt, and Co. at Soho.

The whole of the rooms of this Cotton Mill vhicli is I
'believe, the most extensive in the united Kingdom, as well
as its counting houses and store roomsi and the adjaccnl
dwelling house of Mr. Lee, are lighted with the Gas from
Coal. The total quantity of light used durmg tlie hours
of burning, has been assfirtained by a comparison of sha-
dows, to be about equal to the light which 2500 moulj
Candles, of six in the pound, would give; each of the
candles with which the comparison was made, consuming
at the rate of /o of an ounce, (175 grs.) of uliow per
hour.

The quantity of light is ncre«arily liable to some vari-
ation, from tlie difficulty of adjusting all the flames so as
to be perfectly equal at all times. But the .idmirable pre-
cision and exactness with which the busmcss of this Mill
is conducted, afforded as excellent an opportunity ol
making tho comparative trials 1 had in view, ;is is pcrhups
likely to be ever obtained ir general practice. And tli<'''
experiments being made upon so large a scale, mid for jt
considerable period of time, may I think be assunwid <\s n
«ufficientlv accurate standard for dttcrmimii'' iha atlvan-

an adept in astrolof^y, wlio had found a new metliod of casting the horoscope.

Towards the end of his life he never left his room for fear of meeting a violent death elsewhere. Curiously enough his
decaying body was fouinl after all in his room, he having been murdered there in spite of all his precautions.

Thk ABOVK IS THE FIRST ISSUE OF THE FIRST EDITION. A re-issuc was published in the same year with a new title,
having a different imprint. This second issue is somewhat less rare than the above, although copies of either are now
practically unprocurable. No copies of either can be traced as having sold at auction during the last twenty years.

The interest of the first edition of what prohaUn r/)nstitutes the most important printed work on exact science ever published
need hardly be emphasised. It shx)uld also be noted that the first edition has never been reprinted in any form.

The cost of printing the first edition was borne by Edmund Halley, f.r.s,, who edited and saw it through the press,
and added the Latin verses reprinted in all the later editions. The idea of Mr. Samuel Pepys, p.r.s, giving the Society's
imprimatur to Newton's Principia is tickling.

Owing to the importance of the work and the comparatively small number of copies printed, the first edition became
rare almost immediately after publication. Sir David Brewster, in his Life of Newton, mentions (Vol. I, pp. 312 and 337):
' The impression was quickly sold. A copy of the Principia could scarcely be procured in 1691. . . , Cotes states in his
j)reface to the second edition that copies of the first were scarce, and could only be obtained at an immense price. Sir
William Browne, when at colle;fe. gave more than two guineas for a copy, and owing to the difficulty of procuring one at
a reasonable price, the father of Dr, John Moore of Glasgow transcribed the whole work with his own hand.'

This edition contains considerable additions by the Author, while the chapters on the lunar theory and the theory of
comets were much enlarged. It was edited by Roger Cotes, f.r.s , whose preface (pp. 10), in which he vigorously attacks
the Cartesian philosophy then still in vogue at the universities, and refutes an assertion that Newton's theory of attraction
is a cawsa occulta, is of great historical importance. It also contains a new preface by the author, the Latin verses on him
by Edmund Halley, the Astronomer R lyal, and an ' Index Capitum ' and ' Index Rerum Alphabeticus ' at end, both by

Less than 20 copies were printed of this edition, all of which were reserved for presentation.

' This edition, the last published during the .author's life-time, and the one on which all subsequent ones are based, was
edited by Henry Pemberton, m.d,, f.r.s., and contains a new preface by Newton, and a large number of alterations, the
most important being the scholium on fluxions, and the additioji of a new one on the motion of the moon's nodes, to
which I may add an account of some additional experiments on the resistance of the air to bodies falling through it, and
the use of some fresh astronomical observations in book III.' — W. IV. R. ball. It also contains Ilalley's verses and

Tlie above work is one of the ^'reat classics of optics. It expounds Newton's corpuscular or einission theory of light,,
and first contains his important optical discoveries in a collected form. The above first edition also contains two
important mathematical treatises left out in the later ones, viz., ' Enumi'ratio Linearum III. Ordinis', and 'Tractatus de
Quadratura Ciirvarum ', containing his invention of the ' fluxional ' calculus. They were here published for the first time,
«specially with a view to assert Newton's rights to the discovery of the calculus (of which the controversy with Leibnix
was then just preparing). In his introtluction to the Tructatus he states that he had invented the ' method" in 1G65-G—
thus claiFuing priority over liCibniz. According to the Advertisement, ' the ensuing discourse was written at the desire
of some Gentlemen of the Royal Society, in lt)75. He reveals therein also his peculiarity of shrinking from every kind of
publicity, when he complains that he had delayed the printing 'to avoid being engaged in disputes about these
matters'.

The last passage of the Advertisement is of importance in connexion with the Newton-Leibniz controversy: ' In a
Letter written to Mr. Leibnitz in lOTC ... I mentioned a Method by which I had found some general Theorems about
8<iuaring curvilinear Figures . . . And some Years ago I lent out a Mai.uscript containing such Theorems, and having
since met with .some Things copied out of it, I have on this Occasion made it publick '.

Philosophy of the ancient Greeks' (partly adopted in the third Edition, by adding after 'Benefactor': 'as their
Ancestors did under the Government of Noah and his Sons before they corrupted themselves ').

In this edition the number of queries at the end of the work is increased from 16 to 31, including the celebrated one
(No. 28) : ' Are not all hypotheses erroneous in which Light is supposed to consist in pression or motion propagated
through a fluid medium ? ... If it consisted in pression or in motion propagated either in an instant or in time, it would
bend into the shadow. For pression and motion cannot be propagated in a fluid in right lines beyond an obstacle which
stops part of the motion, but will bend and spread every way in the quiescent medium which lies beyond the shadow.'
Query 17 discusses the double refraction of Iceland spar. It also contains a new and interesting preface.

' At the end of the 3rd book I have added some Questions. And to shew that I do not take Gravity for an essential
Property of Bodies, I have added one Question concerning its Cause, chusing to propose it by way of a Question, because
I am not yet satisfied about it for want of Experiments.'— ^rf?;er<isemcn« //.

The first Latin Edition, translated by Newton's disciple Dr. Samuel Clarke, afterwards Rector of St. James's,

This, like all the other works of this monster of the Terror, is very rare (v. Xos. 11385-91, ante). The ' Opticks' were
previously translated into French by Pierre Coste in 1725, and reprinted in 1722. This translation appears however to
have been very unsatisfactory, for the editor characterizes it as ' defectueuse, infldele et obscure, servile et barbare '.
Marat's translation is by no means a literal one, and should be of special interest, as it was Marat who first, in France,
dared to attack Newton's corpuscular theory.

Marat's translation was apparently unknown to Sir David Brewster, as he only mentions that of P. Coste.

This work was published by William Whiston, pr., f r.'s., who 'extracted a somewhat reluctant permission from
Newton to print it. Among several tjew theorems on various p ants in algebra and the theory of equations Newton here
enunciates the following important results. He explains that the equation whose roots are a solution of a given
problem will have as m;iny roots as there are different possi hie ca.ses. . . . He extends Descartes's rule of signs to give
limits to the number of imaginary roots He uses the principle of continuity to explain how two real and unequal roots
may become imaginary in passing through equality . . . and shows that imaginary roots must occur in pairs. . . .
The most interesting theorem cmfained in the work is his attempt to find a rule (analogous to that of Descartes for
real roots) bv which the number of imaginary roots of an equation can be determined.' — W. W. R. Ball.

This is the celebrated report drawn up by order of the Royal Society, and consisting of a selection from the corre-
spondence ot John C >llins, f.r s with some of the most celebrated mathematicians of the time, which substantiated Keill's
charj^e afrainst Leibniz of having derived the fundatnental ideas of his calculus from papers by Newton, said to have been
comn.unicated to him through Collins and Oldenburg.

Although greatly biassed in Newton's favour, the work is nevertheless ' a repertory of the utmost value to the history
of science ' {D. N B.), and is now excessively rare.

The above is, according to Gray's Bibliography of Newton, the earliest of the two issues of the first edition.

1256S NEWTON (Sir Isaac, p.r.s.) : Commercium Epistolicum : Second Issue of the Second

Edition, with diagrams, 8vo. old calf {joints cracked), with 7 pp. of MS. notes at end in an

XVIII. Century hand, headed ' Addenda', £1. 10* Londini, J. TonsonetJ. Watts, prostant

The second edition, besides being a complete reprint of that of 1712, contains a new address to the reader (pp. 0), ;i

'Recensio Libri qui inscriptus est Commercium Epistolicum' (pp. 59), an Appendix (pp. 2), and an ' Annotatio' (pp. 4).

The address and Recensio were written by Newton himself— a fact first announced by Prof, de Morgan, and confirmed by

Sir David Brewster. The latter did not know of the edition of 1722, and only mentions (Life of Newton, v, II, p. 75) that

'in the year 1725, a new edition of the Commercium was published.'

12570 Second Issue of the 1725 Edition ; loith diagrams, 8vo. old hf calf ( one joint

a^acked) ; VERY RARE, £2. 2s ib., apud eosdem, 1725

This va.s the last is.sne of the last edition pubUslied (save for the French reprint), and is of great interest for a cancellation
in Newton's preface. In all the previous issues of the 1722 and 1725 editions occurs the passage : ' Quie novie Principiorum
editioni prtemissa sunt. Xewtonus non vidit antequara Liber in luceni prodiit. Quie de Quaistionibus Philosophicis
disputata sunt D. Des Maizeaux a D. Leibnitio et aliisaccepit et in lucem edidit,' with a note referring to Leibniz's letters
to Des Maizeaux. In the above issue however the pas.sage 'a. D. Leibnitio et aliis accepit' and the note is cancelled.
This was probably done at the time when Newton decided to leave out of the third Edition of 172(5 the Scholium referring
to Leibniz {vide uotr to .Vo. 12510).

' It is due to historical truth to state, that Newton supplied all the materials for the Commercium Epidoliati/ni,, and that,
though Keill was its editor, and the committee of the Royal Society the authors of the Report, Newton was virtually
responsible for its contents.' — Sir David Brewster.

excerpts from Cavalieri, Descartes, Fermat, Hudde, Ricci, Barrow, and Sluze, which ultimately led to the discovery
ot the infinitesimal calculus. At end is a chapter by Lefort (pp. '.)) : ' Caractere des publications du Commercium

In this interesting letter, which wa.s sent out to 1500 scientists, the anonymous author offers 250 francs for the
publication of a certain passage in a Leibniz MS. (referred to by Dr. H. Sloman, but said to have been purposely left out
in Gerhardt's edition, and since then disappeared alt »rfether from its home in the Royal Library of Hanover), which would
conclusively prove that Leibniz borrowed his ditterential calculus from a Manuscript by Sir Isaac Newton.

12615 MORGAN Augustus de : f.r.a.s., Univ. Coll., London) Newton ; his Friend : and his
Niece, edited by his Wife [Sophia Elizabeth], and by his Pupil, Arthur Cowper Ranyard,
F.R.A.S., 8vo. cl. {.scarce), 7s 1885

Dealing with an episode in Newton's life little referred to by his biographers, but characteristically mentioned by
Voltaire : his relations with Charles Montagu, first Earl of Halifax, his friend and political patron, and his niece Cathkrink

{scarce), 10s 6d Univ. Press, Oxford, 1838

The name of Stephen Peter Rigaud will be familiar to Old Westminsters as that of the father of Stephen Jordan
Rigaud, whose House in Little Dean's Yard is still known by his name, and who died of yellow fever in the West Indies
within a year of his consecration to the Bishopric of Antigua. Professor Rigaud himself was a capable astronomer, but
was still more remarkable for his accurate knowledge of the literature and history of the subject, and as a mathematical
antiquary and bibliographer with no rival previous to de Morgan. It is to him that, in the first instance, we owe much
of our information about Newton and the history of his discoveries. 'The Historical Essay is an admirable exposition of
the facts then known, and contained much new and interesting matter about Halley, whose life Rigaud intended to
write'.— i). N. B.

The appendix contains : I. Newtoni Propositiones de Motu : Early Notice on Fluxions (from an original paper in
Newton's handwriting), Newton and Huygens, On the Cause of Gravitetion, Halley's Review of the Principia, Unpub-
lished Correspondence, etc.

• Robinson was an ardent admirer of Newton, and tried to account for animal motions by his principles, and to apply
them to the rational treatment of diseases. He attributed the production of muscular power to the vibration of an
ethereal fluid pervading the animal body, a doctrine essentially in accord with modern views.' — D. N. B. He attempts
to prove that ' icther causes gra\ity by giving bodies a mutual tendency to one another.'

'The story that this train of thought [on gravitation] was aroused by seeing an apple fall is due to Voltaire, and is
given in his ' Philosophic de Newton' . Voltaire had it from Newton's step-niece, Mrs. Conduitt. For many years
tradition marked the tree in the garden at Woolsthorpe : it was shown to Sir David Brewster in 1814, and was taken
down in 1820.'— D. N. B.

This was really one of the very finest patent cases which ever brought grist to the scientific Bar. The trial was of the
greatest importance in connexion with the patent rights for the manufacture of cordite, which has ever since been the
standard smokeless powder used throughout the British Army and Navy, and which it was claimed was merely a Govern-
ment plagiary from Mr. Alfred Nobel's ballistite. The chief experts for plaintiffs were Prof. W. Odling, f.r.s., Alfred Nobel,
and [Sir] H. E. Roscoe, f.r.s., and for defendant (in reality the Crown) [Sir] James Dewar, f.r.s., Sir Andrew Noble,
Prof. Georg Lunge, [Sir] Edward Frankland, [SirJ William Crookes, and Oscar Guttman. Lord Romer found for the
Crown, and the judgment was upheld by the Court of Appeal and the House of Lords.

a very interesting work, full of suggestions in electricity and magnetism, a subject which fills pp. 51-397 of the book.
It was his first work on electricity and magnetism, and unknown to Poggendorff, who mentions the Questioni sul Magne-
tismo, 1824, as his first publication. The illustration of the magnet already gives the lines of force— many years before
Faraday.

The author was the discoverer of Nobili's Rings, the coloured transparent films of metal deposited by electro-chemical
action. He also invented the thermo-inultiplier, discovered the present form of the galvanometer by combining Schweigger'a
multiplier with Ampere's astatic needle, and was the first to prove that fluids inc -ntact show an electro-motive action.

One of the author's most valuable works, including a description of his electrical machine. The author mjftle
numerous interesting experinients with the Leyden jar, which name he introduced in honour of the supposed
inventor, CnN.f:us of Leyden, in ignorance of the actual inventor, E. G. v. Klkist of Cammin. To show its powerful
action, he electrified before the King ISO Carthusian monks who formed a line !tOO feet long.

He propounde<l a twofold-motion fiuid hypothesis of electricity, by which he attempted to explain electric attraction
and repulsion ; investigated the intlneiioe of electricity on the germination of seeds; and constructed a primitive
electroscope consisting of two linen threads, which, being projected on an arc of 1S0°, were to show the amount <>f the
electric charge by the rate of their angular divergence.

The author was the discoverer of endosmosis, and in France is considered the father of experimental physics. Besides
giving his invention of an improve<l percussion apparatus, the above work is still of value for containing perhaps the most

John Cope, Bart, (very rare), £10. 10s A. M.for Humphrey Robinson, 1628

The above is important as the first great English work on artillery, and valuable for the copious and minute descrip-
tions and illustrations of contemporary ordnance.

In his Epistle to the Reader the author asserts that his book is an original one, and not a translation from Diego
Ufano's Artillerie, although most of the plates were taken from this work, as published in Frankfort in 1621. He com-
plains in the dedication to Charles I. that ' my wrongs and discouragements hath hitherto hindred the publication '
of the work.

Among the complimentary verses is one by Captain John Smith, President of Virginia, who signs himself * Hungari-
ensis ', in remembrance of his taking part (in the Austrian army) in the Hungarian war against the Turks.

'Sir John Cope Bart.' is not identical with Lt.-Gen. Sir John Cope ('Johnnie Cope'), who was defeated by Prince
Charles Edvvard at Prestonpans.

This work is numbered from page Tl to 92, with a title and dedication to the Duke of Buckingham. It was published

In the dedication to the second Duke of Buckingham (' Zimri ') the author complains of the ' penury of expert gunners

and understanding men, and the weaknesse of the present meanes to breed more hereafter '.

Neither of the above important works was known to Lowndes, who only mentions the author's ' Mathematical

The second work, beginning with signature Ee 1, and ending with Kk 10, was evidently taken from the author's
' Trigonometrie ', in order to supplement the first.

12772 Trigonometrie, or, the Doctrine of Triangles, shewing the Mensuration of Right

lined and Spherical Triangles, with the Grounds and Demonstrations thereof. Both performed by
that late and excellent Invention of Logarithms, after a more easie and compendious Manner,
than hath been formerly taught. Whereunto is annexed (chiefly for the use of Seamen) a
Tre.\tise of the Application thereof, in the three principal Kinds of Sailing ; with exact
Tables of the Suns Declination, etc. etc. etc., 7th Edition, bein*? diligently Corrected, in divers
difficult Places explained ; New Tables of the Stars right Ascensions and Declinations added, and
the whole Work very much enlarged, by the Author himself [with Logarithmic Tables],
with numerous diagrams, sm. 4to. contemporary calf {binding slightly damaged, but a sound copy),
15s B. W.for W. Fisher, 1678

ContainiDg at«nd the ' Logarithmes of Absolute Numbers from a unity to 10,000', and 'A Triangular Canon Logarith-
Diicall, or, a Table of Artificiall Sines, Tangents, and the Complements Arithmetical of Sines supplying the use of Secants,
the Radius 1«,0000000, and to every degree and minute of the Quadrant.'

Referring to Briggs's work on logarithms, the author in his preface mentions : * Though we both handle the same thing,
yet it is in such a different manner, that there is scarce any one proposition handled by us both.'

Between 1633 and 163.5 the author measured a degree of the meridian between London and York, and in it first em-
ployed the compass to avoid deviations from the route measured— a fact unnoticed in D. N. B.

He was sent out by the Bermuda Company to survey the islands in 1616 (when he was accused of dishonest collusion
with the Governor), and is of interest to Americans as having in 1623 patented lands in Virginia, though it is doubtful
whether he ever went there.

* He personally measured, partly by chain and partly by pacing, the distance between London and York, making
corrections for all the windings of the way, as well as for the ascents and descents. He also, from computations of the
sun's altitude, computed the difference of latitude of the two places, and so calculated the length of a degree of the
meridian. Considering the roughness of his methods and the imperfection of his instruments it is not surprising that his
result was some 600 yards too great ; but even so it was the nearest approximation which had then been made in
England.*—/). N. B.

The celebrated ' Coloquious dos Simples e Drogas da India' of Garcia da Orta were first published at Goa in 1563. The
author went out to India in 1534 as physician to his feudal lord Dom Martin da Sousa, afterwards Governor of Goa, and
stayed there until his death in 1570. Travelling extensively along the western seaboard of India and in Ceylon,
Garcia gathered botanical and pharmaceutical knowledge at first hand wherever he went. He formed a large ' physic
garden ' in Goa, and another in Bombay, on the site now occupied by the Victoria Gardens. The ' Colloquies ' was in all
probability the first European book printed in India ; it contains the first descriptions of many Indian plants now in
widespread medical use, and of their application to such diseases as cholera and dysentery. Clusius in his ' Aromatum
Hisfx)ria' made a short, unsatisfactory precis, and the Italian and the French translations are very inferior to the
original. Sir Clements Markham was engaged on his translation from the standard Portuguese edition, at Lisbon
and Madrid, for the greater part of three years. On the proposal of Sir George Birdwood the publication was under
the patronage of the Secretary of State for India. The work has more than a scientific interest, for it is enlivened by
entertaining anecdotes of the manners and customs of the people among whom Garcia tla Orta carried on his researches.

This is the first English translation of this famous book, and it will be found to appeal not only to the Botanist and
Pharmacist, but also to the many students of Indian subjects, as well as the lover of Belles Lettres, who will be

This work; which was unknown to the author's biographer in D. N. B., describes his invention of converting
old smooth-bore ordnance into rifled guns by inserting tubes of coiled wrought iron — an inner tube of more ductile and an
outer of less ductile metal — in cast-iron guns suitably bored out. ' Guns so treated were found on trial to give excellent
results, and the method afforded means of utilizing the large stock of cast-iron smooth-bore ordnance . . . at one-third of
the cost of new guns. Some thousands of these ' converted guns ' have taken their place in the armamen of our
fortresses and coast batteries ' (D. N. £.)— as built during the invasion-scare in the the early 'Sixties.

This work contains the invention of the steam digester, and, forming part of it, that of the Safety Valve. The
latter exerted a great influence on the progress of the steam engine, as it did not form part of the engines constructed
before this (e. g. Savery's and the Marquess of Worcester's).

The work was originally published in English, in 1G81, as 'The New Digester'. This French edition contains an
' Advis ' by Claude Comiehs, in which he describes an improved form of the digester.

The above second edition is as rare as the first, and perhaps preferable to it on account of its typographical execution.
The author, perhaps better known as I.ixa di Boroo [or BurgoJ, the name he took on entering religion, was the first to
introduce symbols in algebra.

' In the arithmetic Pacioli gives rules for the four simple processes, and a method for extracting square roots. He
deals pretty fully with all questions connected with mercantile arithmetic, in which he works out numerous examples, and
in particular discusses at great lengtli bills of exchange and the theory of book-keeping by double entry. This i>art was
then the first systematic exiKjfcition of algoristic arithmetic. . . . In the algebra he discusses in some detail simple and
qixadratic equations, and problems on numbers which lead to such equations. He mentions the Arabic classification of
cubic eciuations, but adds that their solution appears to be as impossible as the quadrature of the circle. . . . Though
much of the matter described is taken from Leonardo's Liber Alxici, yet the notation in which it is expressed is superior to
that of Leonardo,' etc. etc, etc.— IF. W. R. Ball.

' In the mathematical writings of the monk Luca Pacioli symbols began to appear. They consisted merely in abbrev-
iations of Italian words, such as p for piu, m for mcno, co for com . . . ' — Prof. Lajori.

' II y a dans ce grand recneil une methode fort ingenieuse pour la resolution de plusieurs Equations indeterminees du
second ou du quatrieme dcgre. ... On y voit la re.solution des equations derivees du second degre, et celle de certaines
equations exponentielles. Dans (luelques problemes relatifs a la legle des partis, le calcul des probabilites se montrw
pour la premiore fois. . . . Enfin on y trouve I'application de lalgebie ii la geometrie et une multitude de faits, relatifs a
diverses branches des connais-sances humaines et fort utiles aux personnes qui veulent 6tudier I'histoire des sciences.

This was perhaps the first suggestion lor a monorail line, as afterwards retluced to practice on the Lartigue system, as
on the Listowel and Ballybunion Railway. It was to follow the contour of the country, slightly raised on posts or trestles',
the trucks being drawn by a horse walking beside it. One plate gives a general view of the line, and the other con-
structional details. The resistance tables are compiled from the Cheltenham, Llanelly, and other tramroads of the time.

This copy belonged to J. Eliot Hodgkin, f.s.a., and bears his bookplate, and some MS. additions. According to his

authority, the work is ' exceedingly rare, as it is one of the most important books for the history of the Steam Engine.

In it is contained" the remarkable mention of a high-pressure steam-engine for driving paddles for the propulsion of a

vessel, on which is based by French writers the claim of Papin to the invention of the steam-engine.'

The work is also of great importance for containing Papin's invention of the centrifugal pump. Added is an

interesting account thereon by Mr. Hodgkin, as published in Eiigincerimj for 1890. It was unknown to Querard,

' In 1714, tenders being invited to stop the breach in the Thames embankment at Dagenham in Essex, Perry offered to
do the work for £25,000. The contract wa«, however, given to W^illiam Baswell, who asked only £16,300. Boswell having
found his task impossible, the work was entrusted to Perry in 1715. He completed it successfully in five years' time ; but
the expenses so far exceeded anticipation that, though an extra sum of £15,000. was granted to him by parliament, an<l a
sum of £1,000. presented to him by the local gentry, Perry gained no profit by the transaction. He published an account
thereof in ' An Account ' etc. {sirpro).'—D. N. B.

He had a singularly chequered career. As a commander of the fireship Cygnet he surrendered after a very slight
resistance to a French privateer. He was court-martialled for dereliction of duty in not setting fire to his ship before the
Frenchmen boarded her, found guilty, and sentenced to a fine of £1,000. and ten years' imprisonment in the Marshalsea.
In lt)08 he proceeded to Russia, engaged by the Tsar Peter, to .supei intend the naval and engineering works in that
country, to leave fourteen years later afraid for his life after humbly reminding the Great Tsar that he had only paid him
one year's salary. Subsequently he embarked upon the above unlucky venture (/>. N. B).

' Petri published an excellent treatise, which went through four [recti- five) editions. It deals with arithmetic and
geometry, as well as with l)ook-keepiug, and treats the subject succinctly and well. The improvements in the matter of
stock-taking and of making a peritxlical trial-bilanoe are incorporated. . . . Petri introduces for the first time two
important departures from the older methods. . . . He no longer journalises all transactions seriatini, but occasionally
groups the kindred items . . and takes a step towards the separation of the books of primary entry. He introduces an
' Expenses-Book*, and at the end of every montli transfers the total to cash account by means of the journal. . . . Petri's

Mines), folio, old calf (small part of blank margin torn out of portrait, but A LARGE AND SOUND
COPY) ; VERY RARE, £2. 12* 6d T. Basset, 1670

This rare work is verj valuable for giving an account of the state of mining in England during the XVIIth. Century.
It was undertaken at the request of Prince Rupert and Lord Shaftesbury. Large extracts from it are given in Hunt's
' British Mining'.

The fine portrait is to be found only in a few copies of the work, it having evidently been subject to the ravages of the
grangerizer or print-seller of the past. It is of a much earlier period of his life than that to the ' Fleta Minor' {supra),
and is not mentioned in />. N. 11.

Interesting for containing some extraordinary and interesting speculations i'u molecular physics. In 'his dedication to
the Duke of Newcastle the author states the work to contain three parts : ' I, an Endeavour to explain the intricate
Notions, or Fhilosophia Prima of Place, Time, Motion, and Electricity ; II. to excite the World to the study of a little
Mathematicks by shewing the use of Duplicate Proportions in some of the most weighty of Humane Affairs ; III. Chymerical
Speculations, to consider such points and proportions, even in Atoms (such, whereof perhaps a Million do not make up

Universe. '

The author was one of the earliest and foremost supporters of the contact theory of voltaic electricity, and much of the
work is directed against the chemical theory advanced (by Wollaston, Fabbroni, and Ritter) to account for electric
action. He also revised Volta's contact series, and was one of the few who appreciated the importance of Ohm's discovery.

The book is probably the first instance of the u.se of graphic statistics, of which in the preface the author claims to be
the inventor. He was the younger brother of .John Playfair the geologist, and had a struggling, rough and tumble life,
from his first employment as a draughtsman at Boulton and Watt's to his death in London in 1823. He Avas in Paris in

work is not mentioned in D. .V. B., but has peculiar interest in connexion with the invaluable method which it introduced,
and which was apparently still little used in Prof, de Morgan's day. It was employed however to flue effect by Florenck

' Pliicker discovered that a piece of tourmaline, which is itself feebly paramagnetic, behaved as a diamagnetic body-
when so hung that the axis of the crystal was horizontal. Faraday, repeating the experiment with a crystal of bismuth,
found that it tended to point with its axis of crystallization along the lines of the field axially. The magnetic forces
acting thus on crystals by virtue of their possessing a certain structure he named ma^ne-crifstallic force. Pliicker
endeavoured to connect the magne-crystallic behaviour of crystals with their optical behaviour, giving the following law',

' The System der analytischen Geometrie, 1835, contains a complete classification of plane curves of the third order, based
on th3 nature of the points of infinity. The Theorie der algebraischen Curven, 1839, contains, besides an enumeration of
curves of the fourth order, the analytic relations between the ordinary singularities of plane curves known as ' Pliicker 's
equations ', by which he was able to explain ' Poncelet's paradox '. The discovery of these relations is, says Cayley, ' the
most important one beyond all comparison in the whole subject of modern geometry.' By considering space [in Geometrie
de-": RoAimes'i as made up of lines he created ' a new geometry of space '. Regarding a right line as a curve involving four
arbitrary parameters, one has the whole system of lines in space. By connecting them by a single relation, he got a
' complex ' of lines ; by connecting them with a twofold relation, a ' congruency ' of lines '.—Prof. Cajori.

This was a wonderful idea indeed, for a quasi-cantilever bridge of timber, buildable without centring, and of apparently
unlimited span. The author justly claims that its ' principles, shape, construction, and extent difler wholly from all other.s
before invented ', and breaks out into much verse in the metre of his namesake, e.g.,
' Let the Broad Arch the spacious Hudson stride,
And span Columbia's rivers far more wide.

Neapoli, apud Matthiam Cancer, 1558

The first edition of this work in its original and more popular form in four books is of excessive rarity, Riccardi, who
apparently could trace no copy of it( 'rarissiiiia edizione '), being unable to give a collation, while other bibliographers
state that it only contained 3 books.

The Magia Naturalis in four books is quite a difl'erent work from that in twenty, and contains far more occult and
superstitious matter than the latter, which made it however only tho more acceptable to the contemporary reader. The
author mentions therein the camera obscura without the lens, the discovery of which is generally ascribed to Leonardo da
Vinci, but was really first mentioned by Levi ben Gersou in a work translated in a.d. 1.342 under the title ' De Sinibus et
Cordis.' The camera with the lens was first described in the work rewritten in 20 books. Porta also mentions that the
declination of the magnetic nesdle varies with the longitude, which he assumed erroneously could be ascertained by the
magnetic variation. The work was written at the age of 15, and is dedicated to Philip II. of Spain. The work as above
■contains the ' Experimentorum Omnium Magiie Naturalis Index ' (pp. 10), which is absent in the secimd edition of Antwerp,
1564, and other reprints.

* De tons les ecrits de Porta ce fut celui qui eut le plus de succes ; dhs sa premiere apparition, on le traduisit en plusieurs
langues, et I'empressement du public fut tel, ce livre fut lu avec tant d'avidite, il passa par tant de mains, que cet usage
continuel a detruit les premieres editions, et que Ten connait plus que des reiaipressions .... Ces apparitions
prodigieuses, ces miracles, etaient le roman de I'epotiue : et c'est ci vrai que lorsque, apres des longs travaux, I'auteur le
tit imprimerde nouveau avec de si notables additions, en le purgeant d'un grand nombre de pro<.liges imaginaires, ce livre
perdit considerablement de sa vogue, et fut bientftt relegue pariiii d'autres ouvrages du ragme genre.'— G. Libri.

13522 Another Copy, v^hite vellum {engraved title wanting, but a very sound copy), 8s 6d

A very neatly printed edition. The engraved title is dated 1650. Porta's Magia Naturalis in Twenty Books is quite a
different work from that in Four Books, first published in 155S, and is one of the most important works on natural
science published during the XVIth Century. Many of the superstitious and even puerile passages of the latter were left
out in this work, and sixteen new books were added. It is a great storehouse of fact and fiction, brought together from
every available source and from private conversations, during the author's extensive travels in Italy, France and Spain.
Some of the books were afterwards published in an enlarged and separate form.

Of great interest is book VI, which shows that the production of artificial gems must have been far advanced in Porta's
time. The seventh contains some important observations on the magnet. The most important however is the seven-
teenth, which contains Porta's invention of the camera obscura with the lens, and the laterna magica, afterwards
improved by Father Kircher. A passage of the tenth chapter has also been quoted to ascribe to him (mistakenly) the
invention of the telescope.

13523 Natural Magick : in Twenty Books, wherein are set forth all the Riches and Delights

of the Natural Sciences, ivith engraved title {including portrait) by B. Gayicood, and numerous

Thomas Young and Samuel Speed, 1658

13524 Another Copy, oldhf. calf {wanting printed and engraved titles, Table (3//.), and pp.

353-4 anc? 359-60) ; a cheap copy, £1. 1*

This English edition, the only one ever published, has now become very rare, presumably from the constant use this
favourite book had to undergo.

The Natural Magick was the last great storehouse of science with its myriads of ' facts ' without any experimental proof
or confirmation. It is interesting as having— perhaps the most typical of its kind— been published on the eve of the
beginnings of eKp&rimental physics, started by William Gilbert and Sir Francis Bacon.

' Stahl's disciple and pupil, Johann Heinrich Pott, enriched chemistry by many valuable observations. . . . With
regard to the nature of phlogiston itself, he expressed the opinion that it was ' a variety of sulphur '.'—Prof. E. v. Meyer.

' Pott vereinigte eine griindliche Kenntniss der chemischen Wissenschaft, wie sie seiner Zeit vorlag, mit einem rastlosen
Streben nach Forderung derselben. Er hatte eine ungemeine Geschicklichkeit in dem praktischen Thelle der Chemie,
eine unermiidete Ausdauer bei den langwierigsten Untersuchungen ; und was er auf diese Weise neu erlangt hatte, theilte
er rait einer Offenheit und Klarheit mit, welche fiir die damalige Zeit hoch anzuschlagen iat.'—H. Koirp.

extramundane corpuscles, the earliest attempt — after Newton's own — to find the cause of gravitation. Le Sage's theory
was again taken up by Lord Kelvin, in 1871, who declared it would be 'a perfectly obvious consequence of the

In this work Dr. Priestley appears as the benefactor of the Man about Town, by discovering Soda-Watkr. His
method was to produce carbon dioxide by pouring sulphuric acid over chalk, and then to lead the gas into a narrow-
necked Ixjttle tilled with water, which was inverted in a bowl full of water. He gives directions for using it medically
(as a cure for cancer, ulcer, scurvy, etc.), and claims for it exceptional antiseptic properties.

The a]x)ve volume (especially in this tirst edition) is of in.portancein connexion with the controversy as to the priority
of the discovery of oxygen between Priestley and Lavoisier. On p. 320 he mentions that, while staying in Paris, he
mentioned to Lavoisier the experiments he had made with uu'rcuriu.-i calcinatm, and those he meant to perform with the
new gas obtained, adding : • Lavoisier presently found what I have called ckphlotjisticatal air, but without investigating
the nature of it, and indeed, without being fully appri.sed of the degree of its purity.'

This Yolume also contains Dr. Priestley's method of 'impregnating water with tixed air', the 'production and
properties of dephlogisticated air' [oxygen], etc. etc. etc.

' Priestley's electrical work is mostly sound, and much of it is brilliant. It shows him at his best. The ' History of
Electricity' supplies an excellent account of previous work both treated historically and sunimari.sed systematically, and
his own reflexions and experiments. ... He anticipated tlierein Henry Cavendish and C. A. de Coulomb in the important
suggestion that the law of electric attraction is that of the inverse square, deducing this from an experiment suojgested by
Franklin.'— i). N. B.

This work contains not only the most copious history of tlie subject written at the time, but many valuable original
periments of the author's. Of special interest are the chapter.s 'Theories of Electricity' (pp. 441-06 of 1st Ed.), and
few Experiments in Electricity, made in 1700' (pp. 573-733 of the first Edition). Among the latter the second Edition
first contains three new ones : ' Experiments in which rings, consisting of all the prismatic colours, were made by electrical
explosions on the surfaces of metals (containing the discovery of ' Priestley's rings ')' : ' Experiments on the lateral force of
electrical explosions' (shoiving the oscillatory nature oftheclrctric du<cTiorgc — a discovery erroneously mentioned in D. N. B. as
hav-ing been made in 1770, and anticipating one by Sir Oliver Lodge), and 'Various Experiments on the force of Electrical

' He was led to study gases by watching the process of fennentation in a brewery next his house ; and in March 1772
he read the first paper, ' On Different Kinds of Air'. It was inspired by the work of Stephen Hales, Joseph Black, and
Cavendish. This essay marked an epoch in the history of the science. In the first place, Priestley set forth improvements
in the methods of collecting gases, and especially the use of mercury in the pneumatic trough, which enabled him to deal
for the first time with gases soluble in water. He announced the discovery of marine acid air (hydrochloi'ic acid) and
nitrous air (nitric oxide), and showed the feasibility of substituting the latter for living mice as a nii-ans of measuring the
goodness of air, a suggestion which led, in the hands of Fontana, Jjandriani, Cavendish, and others, to exact eudiometry.
He .showed that in air exposed over water, one-fifth disappears in processes of combustion, respiration, and putrefaction,
and that plants restore air vitiated by these processes ; ami that no known gas conducted electricity. The paper also
contained a proposal to saturate water with carbonic acid under either atmospheric or increased pressure, which led to the
creation of the mineral- water industry. In the same dissertation Priestley noted, without conunent, that he had produced
two other gases, which were designated respectively carbonic oxide and nitrous oxide, and that he had disengaged from
nitre a gas which further examination would have juoved to be identical Mith the as yet undiscovered oxygen. The ]iaper
was awarded the Copley medal of the Royal Society, and was at once abstracted at length by Lavoisier and criticised by
him.'— 7^. N. B. The above work was unknown to Poggendorft".

The Arithmetic of Nicomachus formed the basis of thac of Boethius, and 'remained for a thousand years a standard
authority on the subject.' ' It was tlie first exhaustive work in which arithmetic was treated quite independently of
geometry. Instead of drawing lines, like Euclid, he illustrates things by real numbers' {Prof. Cajori).

a very storehouse of learned ignorance. In spite of all that was known at the time, the author attributes atmospheric
pressure to the action of the ' ajtherial particles darted from the celestial bodies '. These particles have also to do duty in
explaining vegetation, smell, and the subjects mentioned in the title. There is also a description of a curious contrivance
to ascertain the longitude. Lcway appears to have been quite unknown to the learned author.

' In a treatise entitled Observations on a General Iron Rail-imy (4th edition, London, 1823) it is proposed to employ
Blenkinsop's engines and rack rail, of which views are given. The author exhibits the utmost contidence in regard to
the future of the locomotive engine. . . . The pamphlet was published anonymously, but is stated to be from the pen
of Thomas Gray, a native of Leeds ('Railways, .Steamers, and Telegraphs', by George Dodd, 1S68, p. 15). ... He would
appear to have been the earliest to propose the construction of the Manchester and Liverpool railway— as a locomotive
line.'— GaAlovay's Steam Engine, p. 210. The construction work was largely to be done by the forced labour of the varied
criminal class with which England then swarmed.

ISai) as ' Hera path's Railway and Commercial Journal,' a weekly paper in quarto. The social as well as the scientific

13836 RAILWAYS :— A Brief Statement of the Advantages which will result to the Public

with Estimate of the probable Return to the Subscribers, with large folding route-map and view
of Brunswick Steam Wharf, East India Docks, 8vo. (pp. 42), sewn (SCARCE), 10* 6fl? 1837

This was an advance prospectus of the Blackwall Railway, the next metropolitan line after the Greenwich Railway.
It suggests locomotive traction, although steam rope traction was actually adopted and worked for many years. At end
is the engineer's report by Sir William Ci bitt, k.r.s., p.i.c.e., the constructor of the South Eastern R.ailway.

13837 : Practical Inquiry into the Laws of Excavation and Embankment on Rail-

and to point out tne Means by which the greatest Expedition and Economy in Execution may be
obtained, with Appendix, by a Resident Assistant Engineer, vHth '^folding lithographs, 8vo.
cL, uncut (SCARCE), 15s 1840

The author claims this to be the first attempt to reduce to formulas the estimating of earthwork, which had hitherto
only been done by rule of thumb. ' Few men, not even contractors, make out their estimates of expenditure and time
on any fixed principles, . . . and hence doubtless arose the late disastrous effects on the railway system.' The last
plate quaintly illustrates ' The Bredon Cutting, as it appeared in March 1840.'

13838 : Sub-Railavays : the Streets of London made Perfect, as they should be, without

Opening? the Ground for Sewers, Pipes, or any other Purpose, with folding plate of a Holborn
Viaduct, 8vo. (pp. 20), sewn (VERY scarce), 12* 6rf Effingham Wilson, 1835

This is a curious and probably the very earliest adumbration of an underground railway, besides a sewer and pipe
subway, which had already been suggested, ' in order to clear the streets from the danger of walking and riding in them
from the unusual speed and frequent racing of omnibusses and cabriolets, modern vehicles unknown till within these
few years, and to preserve the streets clean from a great proportion of the filth and nmd they contain.' No railway of
course was yet open in London. The method proposed was cut-and- cover.

Ramsden was perhaps our greatest mathematical instrument maker, the son of an innkfeper at Salterhebble, near
Halifax, and called by Delambre ' le plus grand de tons les artistes '. 'The demand from all parts of Europe for his
incomparable instruments was greater than could be satisfied bv the constant labour of sixty workmen. His life was
one ot extreme frugality. His lavourite scientific authors were Euler and Bouguer, and in advanced years he learned
French enough to read Boileau and Moliere. Most of his evenings were spent drawing plates by the kitchen fire, a cat
on one side, a mug of porter and plate of bread and butter on the other, while some apprentices sat round, and he whistled
or sang. In consequence of his disregard of gain he left but a small fortune, mostly divided by will among his workmen.

' The most valuable of the kind that was possessed by those times.'— Donaldson's AgriculL Biog. It is dedicated to
rharles I. wlien Prince of Wales. Nothing seems to be known of the author, who is not included in D. N. B., and was
unknown to PoggendorfT. The various books comprise : I. The Elements of Qeonietrie, with Theorems ; II. The Use and
< )peration of the former Theorems ; IH. The Exact Operation of Instrumental Dimensions by divers meanes ; IV. The
Le^all Part of Survey. In the 3rd book the author describes 'the use of an Instrument of mine owne, which I call the
Pn-achn; and of a Chayne, which I call the Lk>:i,iw.ll Ch-iynf, with the divisions and parts thereof: which rightly
\ nderstood and practised is farre more vsefuU and absolute for speed and exactnesse, then any yet euer vsed *.

Sir Robert Rawlinson was here the pioneer of what we unconsciously recognise as the Waterworks Style of architecture
—and a very praiseworthy attempt it was, and a chai-acteristlc detail of the Gothic Revival. He based it on the tall
towers built witli such lavish emulation by the nobles of Pisa and Verona, and on the Moorish towers of Spain. It must
be familiar to Londoners in the excellent chimney of the Pumping Station by the Grosvenor Bridge, and less generally
at the two great outfalls at Barking and Crossness.

The author tries to prove that the analysis of light ainl heat by the glass prism is a delusion. The following are some
of his axioms : • Blackness is compounded of bine, red and yellow rays, and there is as strong a reflection from black as
from any other coloure<l substance ' (p. 1): 'Atoms change colour with every change of condensation' (p. lt>4) : 'The
colours in Newton's experiment were occasioned by the l.lack light, reflected from the inner margin of the hole in the
(luire of paper ' (p. 258). There are nevertheless some sound remarks in this jiainstaking paradox.

on the broadside. His object was to produce shorter ships of great handiness, and to develop their end-on fire without
sacrificing their weight of broadside. . . . The Bellerophon., the first ship designed by Reed after he took office, was
typical of many others that followed, and marked a great advance towards the realisation of the desire-- qualities. . . .
■Structurally also the BeUerophon was an important ship, for in her Reed introduced a new system of framing, known as
the longitudinal and bracket frame system, which was better suited than the old method to the use cf iron, which was

The first work is the Thifd Edition of Regiomontanus's trigonometry, a second having been published in 154<;.
Appended is 'Tractatus super Propositiones Ptolemaei dfi Sinubus et Chordis ', by Gkor<. Pkukrbach (Purbachius), the
teacher of Regioniontamis.

' This is the earliest modern systematic exposition of trigonometry, plane and spherical, though the only trigono-
metrical funi'tions introduced are those of sine and cosine'.— ir. W. It. Ball.

' Regiomontanus and Purbach adojited the Hindoo Aiw in place of the Greek chord 0/ <l<mU'' Vie ar>: Region lontanus
t?inphasised the use of the ^f/ir^' /*( in trigonometry, and following out some ideas of his master, calculated a table of
tangents ... He was the author of a complete treatise on trigonometry, contAinin;^' solutions of both plane and spherical
triangles. The form which he gave to trigonometry has been retained, in its main features, to the present day. . . .
Regiomontanus ranks among the greatest men that Germany has ever produced. '^P/o/. Cojorl.

Nothing is known of the author of the .second work, who is not mentioned by Montucla or Poggendorlf(whoinistaVenly
attributes the work to liegiomontanus), or in other bibliographies. It forms an appendix to the tirst work, and is
especially interesting for its junnerous well-executed woodcuts, which include many on artillery bombarding fortro.<se.s,
which are still based on the contemporary notion that the projectile travels in a straight line, and after its strength is
spent, drops vertically (c. .Vo. S212"Hie).

Poggendorff mentions a Johannes Xoviomagus (Jan Bronckhorst), 1404-1570), who for some time professed mathematics
at Rostock ; but there is no evidence to connect him with the above Daniel Santbech Xoviomagus.

'If the number were sufficient of those who wish to take their notions of liberal education in Europe at the lime

staiiip it as the best book for such a purpose. . . . The Arithmetic has a frontispiece representing lioethius at one table
with Arabic numerals before him ; and Pythagoras at another with counters. Pythagoras among the Greeks, Apuleius
and Boethius among the Romans, were often made the inventors of arithmetic. The arithmetic is divided into speculative
and practical. The former is a summary of Boethius, often in the words of John de Muris. Tiie latter is a short treatise on
Algorithm, as it was called, or the rules of computation by the Arabic numerals. There is also computation by counters,.
fractions, common and sexagesimal, and the rule of three. Many works of fifty years later do no more difficult questions,'

made from Hawksmoor's draughts a calculation to estimate tlie fall of the water at the intended bridge at Westminster,
and >onie conjectures as to the i>robable effect on the navigation.' — /'. .V. li.

Nicholas Hawksmoor was the 'scholar' and greatest pupil of Wren, and helped in building St. Paul's. He did much
work at Queen's and All Souls Colleges at Oxford, but his most interesting works to Londoners are St. Mary Woolnoth in
Lombard St. and his many East End churches under Queen Anne's ' Fifty" scheme, which include St. Anne's, Limehouse,
St. Georges in the East, and that noble church, Christ Church, Spitalfields.

The above volume is specially interesting for having belonged to Joh.v Rkxxik, who afterwards actually built New
London Bridge, still the noblest bridge in England. The works added by him are : Memorial concerning Hexham Bridge,
by John S.meaton, f.r.s., with a brief Reply by a Freeholder (1782) : A Copy of Mr. Mylnes Opinion and Report to the

14070 RENNIE (Sir John, c.e., f.r.s., p.i.c.e.; completer of London Bridge and of the
Plymouth Breakwater) HISTORY OF CIVIL ENGINEERING, AN UNPUBLISHED
MS. on over 800 pp., in 12 vols. (v. IV. missing) folio, parchment, £15. 15* [ 1839-? 74]

A very interesting Manuscript, which must have formed the basis of Sir John Rennie's presidential address to the
Institution of Civil Em^ineers on the history of Civil Engineering, in 1846. Some of the volumes bi^ar extensive
alterations and corrections, the work having evidently been designed for publication. This is borne out by a passage in
the author's Autohioifraphy (p. 456) : ' I also design to write a history of engineering, enlarged from my address to the
Institution of Civil Engineers, and a life of my revere<l father. All these I have already sketched out, and I hope to com-
plete them, if it please God to spare my life a few jears longer.' None of these works were carried out, although the
author's wish had been gi anted.

THE ORIGINAL SCHEME OF THE GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY :

14071 : Book of Reference of a Portion of the Pro,jected Line of the Northern Rail-
way, extending from London to Cambridge, containing the Names of the Owners or reputed

for making a Rail Road from London to Cromford, a Manuscript on 138 pp., prepared for
Sir John Rennie, 4to. roan, £1. 1* [c. 1837]

This would have made the Great Eastern the original ' Great Northern ' railway, and lacking endless tunnels a much
more comfortable line. But it stuck at Cambridge. It is plain from the ab jve interesting MS. that the first intention of
all was to make it.join the very early High Peak Railway, which still exists as a mineral line from Buxton to Wirksworth.

on the great succession of English civil engineers, but a big one on the order of knighthood. ' He was the last of his race,

a very rare edition, unknown to Graesue and Ebert ; while Brunet does not mention rhe work at all. Prof, de Morgan

The Languedoc Canal was the first important one constructed (between 1607 and 1081) in France, and connected the
Bay of Biscay with the Mediterranean ; thus avoiding the long detour by the Strait of Gibraltar. ' It proved the proto-
type of the modern ship-canal, though, as its d»>pth is only (i^ feet, it is not adapted for vessels above 100 tons. The
Gironde and the Garonne give access up to Toulouse; and from this point, the Languedoc Canal, or Canal des deuxMers,
148 miles long, rises gradually by locks to a summit level of fiOO feet at Naurouse, and then descends in a similar manner
to Xarbonne on the Gulf of Lyons, the number of locks being 119.'— Prof- L. F. Vrrnon-Harcourt.

' In March, 1885, Sir Howard Grubb mounted for Dr. Isaac Roberts, at Maghull, near Liverpool (his observatory has
since been transferred to Crowborough in Sussex), a silver-on-glass reflector of 20" aperture, constructed expressly for use
in celestial photography. A series of nebula-pictures, obtained with this fine instrument, have proved highly instructive
both as to the structure and extent of these wonderful objects ; above all one of the great Andromeda nebula.' — MUs
Agnc.^ M. Gierke.

' With a view of obtaining very prolonged exposures, Roberts spared no trouble or expensft in providing his telescope
with an exceedingly perfect driving-clock, and at length Grubb succeeded in supplying him with one, electrically controlled,
which met his requirements. With this Roberts has made successful exposures, even 4 hours in length, with astonishing
results, particularly in respect to nebulaj. The Pleiades have been shown to present an almost continuous mass of
nebulous matter ; the great Orion nebula has been traced far beyond the old limits, whilst the Andromeda nebula, ' novr
for the first time shown in an intelligible form *, has proved to be a vast Saturniform body. ... A single plate exi>osed on
a region in Cygnus has shown more than 1(5,003 stars ; whilst the spiral nebula in Canes Venatici has been depicted with

the translator exposed tue lallacies of the Cartesian system, 'then still all-powerful at Cambridge University.

14420 RONALDS (Sir Francis, f.r.s. ; inventor, in 1816, of the electric telegraph) Descriptions of
an Electrical Telegraph, and of some other Electrical Apparatus, 2nd Edition [with Preface],
with 4 plates (one folding) of the installation and the electrical apparatus used, 8vo. cl. (SCARCE),
12* 6d 1871

This work contains the account of the electric telegraph invented by the author, which transmitted signals from his
house at Hammersmith (occupied later on by William Morris, the poet, and known as 'Kelmscott House ') over a system
of wires S miles long, by observing at one end the divergence of a pair of pith balls when a charge of electricity was sent
into the other.

• Ronalds's instrument was of real practical use, and the brilliant idea of using synchronou.sly rotating discs, now
employed in the Hughes printing apparatus, was entirely his own. The only defect in his invention was the comparative'
slowness with which a succession of symbols could be transmitted '.—D. N. B. He at once offered the invention to the
Admiralty, and was officially answered that now the French war was over telegraphs of any kind were wholly needless,
and that no other than the semaphore then in use would bo adopted. The inventor published the above account first in
1823, and then dropped telegraphy for good.

This second edition contains uninteresting preface dated Ba^^ie, Od. 9, 1871, and written in the inventor's 83rd year
and 48 years after the publication of the first edition. There are however only 4 plates, instead of the 8 contained in the
original edition.

It is pleasing to remember that an Englishman, Dr. William Gilbert, wrote the first scientific treatise on electricity
in Elizabeth's reign, and another invented the electric telegraph in George the Third's, and another' wireless telegraphy
(on the Flat Holm in the Bristol Channel) in Queen Victoria's.

This work was unknown to PoggendorfT (who does not even m«nition the author), Lowndes, and AUibone. Pp. 305-461
treat of the obsolete Method of Exhaustion, with applications to draw tangents, to find the maxima and minima of
curves, and to quadratures, yet the author does not even remotely refer to Newton's Method of Fluxions, or the principles
underlying it. The author was doubtless an ancestor of Joseph Philip Ronayne, railway and hydraulic engineer in
Ireland and California, and Home Rule M.P., who died in 1870.

This work, which is not noticed by Lowndes or Poggendorff, contains the important suggestion of reducing friction by
letting the axle run on the top of friction wheels, which in their turn have axles running on other wliPinls. This suggestion
does not seem to have been adopted, but is undoubtedly the forerunner of ball-bearings. It was however used in the
friction wheels of Atwood's machine to reduce friction to a minimum. The work also describes contrivances ' to take off
the friction of a truck of any single, double, treble, etc. blocks,' 'to diminish the friction of a pendulum by the application
of a single sector,' 'a method of cancelling the friction of all wheel-carriages,' etc. The author also claims that he was
the first to discover that friction does not depend on the extent of the surfaces in contact, but on the pressure.

The ' Rolling Cart' depicted in the third copy is a prototype of the modern road roller.

lasting HOROMETER, etc., with 4 folding copperplates, sm. 8vo. (pp. 59), sewn {very rare),

The author claims to have overcome the difficulty of taking observations in cloudy or misty weather by his Fluid
Quadrant, which does not require the observation of the horizon. 'Till the Invention of this Instrument, no Altitudes at
Sea could ever be taken to Exactness, nor -no Lunar Observations, till now, could ever be exact enough for discovering the
Longitude' (p. VIII).

The above work was quite unknown to Watt and AlUbone, who only mention the author's ' Wheel Carriages'; nor is

The author objects to the cyclonic theory of storms, and advances one of his own, mainly based on the quantity of

atmospheric electricity.

He was a very interesting personality. A native of Oxford, he was the son of a cabinet maker, to which trade, and that

of a paperhanger, he was brought up, while his parents at the same time excited in him a passion for meteorology and

astronomy. Befriended by Profe.s.sor Baden Powell (q. v. ante), he eventually became an assistant at the new University

Museum, and pursued his scientific interests till he died an old man in 1892.

a valuable complement to Joule's researches (v. Nos. 9919, 9921, and 0924-5 ante).

' One of the most accurate determinations on the mechanical equivalent of heat (supra) was made by H. A. Rowland.
The part of the work which received greater attention than Joule had given it, was the subject of thermometry. Joule
used Mercury thermometers. Rowland, for convenience, used a mercury thermometer ton, but compared it with an air
thermometer and then reduced his data to the absolute scale. Rowland paid attention also to variations in the specific
heat of water for difterent temperatures. Starting with the water at different temperatures, he obtained by friction of
water in a calorimeter different values for the mechanical equivalent. This variation in the values he attributed to
changes in the specific heat of water. The latter was found by him to reach a minimum at 30' C.'—Prof. Cajori. Added
is an ' Appendix containing the Comparison with Dr. Joule's Thermometer' (pp. S).

tinuous adjustment of the carbon points then proved an insuperable practical difficulty.

' A subject of which little was then known, and which was introduced to the ordinary student by Salmon's labours.' —
Bp. Bernard.

'Salmon helped powerfully towards the spreading of a knowledge of the new algebraic and geometric methods by the
gublication of an excellent series of text-books.'— Pro/. Cajori.

' Upon these four treatises his fame as a mathematician rests. . . . Salmon's methods made little use of the calculus,
or of the quaternion analysis invented by his contemporary. Sir W. R. Hamilton ; nor, again, did he ever handle the
non-Euclidean geometry. His strength lay in his complete mastery of geometric and algebraic processes, and this,
coupled with his indefatigable industry as a calculator, enabled him to produce original work of permanent value.' —
Bp. Bernard.

The always striking fellowship of theolog.y and mathematics has seldom had a greater example than in Dr. Salmon,
and the weight it lent him was a source of strength to the Irish Church throughout the throes of disestablishment
and reconstruction.

an enormous coal bill, and the scheme came to an end, as mentioned in the next article. Jt had one final modified trial in

' In his treatise on ' Air and Fire* lie showed that the air consists essentially of two gases, one of which supports
combustion whilst the other does not. The former he identified with the ' Uxed air' he obtained from saltpetre, nitric
acid, black oxide of manganese, and other .substances. He endeavoured to associate several phenomena with the action
of this gas, particularly connecting it with the respiratory function and the growth of i)lants. Incidentally he prepared

' We may point out that a vast amount of tedious research may frequently be saved by consulting its pages when
investigating matters relating to que.st.ions of design, working and organisation. Special attention is also given by the
editorial staff to the capital outlay and working costs of existing undertakings . . . ' Science Abstracts ' is not, like many
periodicals, of purely ephemeral interest ; its value increases at an increasing rate as time goes on. Already its seven fat

The work is nevertheless scientifically important for the contributions to the atomic theory which it contains. The
author accepts physical, as distinct from mathematical, minima as the smallest no longer physically perceptible parts of
a body, and attacks in this connexion the doctrines of Aristotle. His atomistic theory found many foflowers, among
others Otto von Guericke and Johannes Sperling.

Chiefly interesting for the fact that it was still considered neces,«ary at so late a date to write a defence of the
Copernican System. The author was a friend of Samuel Pepys, and took part in the campaign against the Duke of
Monmouth as an officer of artillery at the battle of Sedgemoor.

This work is of importance in connexion with the attitude of the Roman Catholic Church towards the Copernican
System. It was the first orthodox work based on it, and therefore immediately objected to by the Papal Censor, who
expected the author to treat the system as an hypothesis devoid of proof. The author refused and appealed to Pope
Pius IX., who finally decreed that the Copernican system might thenceforward be taught without hindrance.

A most interesting manuscript collection :

14879 : MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION, containing Hundreds of Mathematical and Astro-

with the ' Ladies' Diary ', and his extensive and very interesting Correspondence with
Mathematicians of the Time, including Draughts or Fair Copies of his own Letters,
5 vols, folio, boards, £10. 10* 1730-58

This very interesting Manuscript Collection is important from the number of original problems either suggested by the
author himself or by his correspondents which it contains, together with their solutions. It should form no unimportant
contribution towards the history of mathematics during the time it covers.

The following is a list of the more important autograph letters contained in it :— Henry Beiqhton, f.r.s., editor of the
' Ladies' Diary ', 1713-44 : Sir Francis Blake, f.r.s., 1708-80 (21 long and interesting letters, iirith problems) : Alexander
BuLLER, of Philadelphia, 1741 : Martin Folkes. f.r.s., antiquary, 1600-1754 (3 letters): Robert Heath, mathematician,
editor of the ' Ladies' Diary ', 1744-53 (3) : John Landen, f.r.s., 1719-flO (2 letters on his Theorem, one long and very interest-
ing) : John Michell, pr., f.r.s., Woodwardian Prof. Geology, astronomer, 1724-93 : John Muller, Prof. Fortification and
Mathematics, R. Academy, Woolwich, the author's rival, 1699-1784 (3 letters, one with a long reply which may have caused
the enmity between the two): John Robertson, f.r.s., first master R. Naval Academy, Portsmouth, 1712-76: Anthony
Thacker, editor of the ' Ladies' Diary ' (4).

It also contains the manuscript of the following memoirs by Simpson : Some Account of M. Silvabelle's Tract on the
Precession of the Equinox (pp. 3) ; Farther Attempt to facilitate the Resolution of Isoperimetrical Problems (pp. 4): Of
the Fluents of Multinomials and Series affected by Radical Signs, which do not begin to converge till after the Second
Term (p. 1). There is also Simpson's caustic reply (apparently never published, having numerous cancellations and cor-
rections) to John Muller, who accused him of having pirated his worthless 'Elements of Mathematics', and the further
correspondence on this quarrel.

The building of the Eddystone Lighthouse has made Smeaton's name a household word among successive generations of
Englishmen until to-day. It was built in 1756-9 of large shaped granite blocks, and was the greatest work of its kind
hitherto undertaken, and remained in use until 1879, when it was rebuilt as a monument on Plymouth Hoe, as the rock
which formed the foundation had become greatly weakened by the sea.

' Smeaton's .«»tory of the Eddystone lighthouse is t^ld in a very effective manner. It possesses an interest almost
dramatic, exhibiting a contest between a strong, skilled, and determined man, and the most tremendous forces of nature.'
— Samuel Sviile.'i.

Earl Stanhope was the first to make known the principle of the return stroke of lightning. ' He contended that when
a large cloud is charged with electricity it drives out a considerable portion of the electricity in its neighbourhood, which
often returns to its original position with such violence and in such quantity as to destroy life.'— TF. P. Courtney.

The English translation of this important work, which laid the foundation of crystallography and stratigraphy, and
contains a theory of the earth which makes him the first of ' Neptunists,' was published only two years after the
apjiearance of the Latin original printed in Florence. The translator was unknown both to Halkett and Lain{< and Watti.

' His genius is most apparent in his geological works ; in those few smaller treatises, for example, in which his casual
observations of the soil of Tuscany, the quality of the earth's strata, their relative position and the fossils they contain
lead him to nothing less than the foundation of the modern science of Geology. Steno was the first to demonstrate that
non-fossiliferous layers were the most ancient, that the layers consisting of marine sediment were originally circumscribed
by even, horizontal planes etc. etc., and finally he was the first to describe in detail the forms and manner of formation of
crystals, showing that opposite sides were parallel, and many other matters of a like nature.'

(pp. 16), sewn (very scarce), £1.1* 1817

' He made numerous experiments on the combustion of the escaping inflammable gases at Killingworth colliery, and
eventually designed a safety lamp, by controlling the entry of the air to support combustion, and the escape of the
products of combustion by the use of small tubes for the gases to pass througli . On 21 Oct. 1815 the first lamp was
actually tried, on 4 Nov. a second improved form, and on 30 N')v. a third still better were tested. On this last occasion
he entered with his lamp with perfect safety into parts of the workings which were full of gas. Sir Humphry Davy
had, unknown to Stephenson, been working on the same subject, and practically at the same time that Stephenson's long
experiments bore fruit in his lamp, Davy brought out his well-known [gauzp] safety lamp {v. Nos. 977 and 7203, a7ite). A
tierce controversy raged for several years on the question to whom was due the credit of this solution of a problem
fraught with life and death to so many thousands of miners. A national testimonial to Davy produced a testimonial to
Stephenson, and he was preseuted with £1000. and an address. There can be little doubt that the two inventions were
quite independent of each other, and that both men practically reached the same solution by different methods at the
same time.' — Prof. T. Hudson Beare. Sir Humphry's lamp soon became known as the ' Davy', and Stephenson's as the
' Geordie'.

The third of the great triplet of early lighthouses which fascinated our youthful imagination— the Eddystone, the Bell
Rock, and the Skerryvore, and in the wildest situation of them ail.

' It still remains a standard book ... He designed and carried out ten lighthouses, including Skerryvore lighthouse
tower, the finest example for mass, combined with elegance of outline, of any extant rock tower. This tower, which is
exposed to the full fetch of the Atlantic, is built on a rock 14 miles from the nearest land, the island of Tyree. The work
was begun in 1838, but a storm swept away the temporary barrack, and another had to be erected in its place. The
foundations of the tower involved the excavation of 2000 tons of material. . . . The tower rises to a height of 138 ft., is
42 ft. in diameter at the base, gradually decreasing to 16 ft. at the top.'— D. N. B.

duced prismatic rings above and below the central belts, thus securing equal distribution of light all round, and extending
dioptric action throughout the whole height of the apparatus. He also suggested the spherical mirrors placed on the

the diameter of the bass is 42 ft., diminishing to 1.') ft. at the top. . . . The cubic contents of the tower are more thaii
double those of the Eddystone, from which it differs in many respects owing to its far more difficult and dangerous site.

'His crowning invention was his ' azimuthal condensing system of lighthouse illumination.' Xo attempt had previously
been made to allocate the auxiliary light in proportion to the varying lengths of the different ranges and the amplitudes
of the ares to be illuminated, or, where a light had to show all round the horizon, to weaken its intensity in one arc, and
with the rays so abstracted to strengthen some other arc, which from its range being longer required to be of greater
power.'— jD. iV^. B.

A 'possible hindrance to German success in world-domination may exist in a certain limitation in the national mentality,
which while allowing to the Statebound scientist much success in poisoning and other arts of destruction, has not tended to the
development in one family of such brilliant gifts in the avis of peace and the realm of the imagination as those with which mankind
was endowed in eighty years from Robert to Robert Louis Stevenson.

' It is however on his Statics and Hydrostatics, published (in Flemish) at Leyden in 1586, that his fame rests. In
these works he enunciates the triangle of forces— a theorem which some think was first propounded by Leonardo da Vinci.
Stevinus regards this as the fundamental proposition of the subject. Previous to the publication of his work the science
of statics had rested on the theory of the lever, but subsequently it became usual to commence by proving the possibility
of representing forces by straight lines, and thus red ucing many theorems to geometrical pro])Osit.ion8, and in particular to
obtaining in this way a proof of the parallelogram (which is equivalent to the triangle) of forces . . . Stevinus also found
the force which must be exerted along the line of greatest slope to support a given weight on an inclined plane— a problem
the solution of which had been long in dispute. He further distinguishes between stable and unstable equilibrium. In
hydrostatics he discusses the question of the pressure which a fluid can exercise, and explains the so-called hydrostatic
paradox.'— JT. W. R. Ball.

A full account of this classic of statics will be found in Prof, E. Mach's ' Science of Mechanics." The above original
editions are excessively rare, the work being generally quoted by historians of mathematics from the Latin translation

' The first two books deal with surds and incoinmensurables, and are ISnclidean in form. The third is on algebra, and
is noticeable for having called general attention to the German practice of using the signs -t- and - to denote addition and
subtraction. ... It used to be said that Stifel was the real inventor of logarithms, but it is now certain that this opiniou
was due to a misapprehension of a passage in which he compares geometrical and arithmetical progressions. Stifel is said
to have indicated a formula for writing down the coefficients of the various terms in the expansion of (1 + x)n if those in
the expansion of (1 + x)n-l were known.'— IT. W. R. Ball.

plates : Analyse des Infintment Petits, pour I'Intelligence des Lignes Gourbes, par le
Marquis de I'Hospital, 2^ :£dition ; with 1\ folding plates — 2 vols. 4to. in 1, old hf. calf {back
damaged), with long presentation inscription by James Lockhart [ivell-known amateur mathema-
tician), 8s ' 1735-16

L'Hospital's work was the first published in French on the differential calculus. Stone's was originally published
with his English translation of the first work, and was later translated into French as the first worfc published in that
language on the integral calculus.

briefly and plainly laid down ; as also, a Short Account of the Uses of the Lines of Numbers,
Artificial Sines and Tangents ; 2nd Edition, with 3 folding plates, post 8vo. (pp 44), sew7i
(rare), 7s 6d 1728

The authorship of this brochure is not noticed in D. N. B., AUibone, or Poggendorff, and was unknown to Halkett
and Laing, but may be inferred from the preface being signed E. S. Stone also revised the new edition of Gunn's Treatise
of the Sector in 1729.

and diagrams, 8vo. old calf, roughly rebacked {title and some II. soiled), 5s 1743

15101 Some Reflections on the Uncertainty of many Astronomical and Geographical

Positions, with Regard to the Figure and Magnitude of the Earth, the finding the Longitude
at Sea by Watches, and other Assertions of the most eminent Astronomers ; with some Hints
towards their Reformation and Emendation, post 8vo. (pp. 135), sewn, 6s 1766

'Consisting of a series of propositions attacking the accuracy of the conclusions of astronomers concerning the shape
of the earth and other matters of a .similar kind.'— D. N. B.

' Exposing the weakness and insufficiency of the arguments and proofs of those who will have the figure of the earth
spherial or spheroidical, with some hints tending to shew the uncertainty of the truth of the Newtonian physical
part of astronomy.' — p. 17.

illustrated by an Arithmetical and Geometrical Construction of the Transit of Venus over the
Sun, June 6th, 1761 ; with a new and general Method of determining the Places where any Transit
of this Planet, and especially that which will be June 3d, 1769, may be best observed for the
Investigation of its Parallax, with numerous diagrams, post 8vo. (pp. 108), seimi, 4^ Oxford, 1758

'In this very valuable contribution Stoney explained from inductive reasoning the absence of hydrogen and helium
from the atmosphere of the earth, and the absence of an atmosphere from the moon and from the satellites and minor
planets of the solar system. His paper gave rise to controversy, but Stoney's position was unshaken. His investigations
as to helium are of great importance in view of recont enquiries into the length of geological epochs, and into the past
history of radio-activity of the materials of the earth's crust.' — D. N. D.

This important work contains not only a description of the chief di.«!COveries of the time, but also an account of the
author's own inventions, e. g., the differential theimometer, which was wrongly claimed by Sir John Leslie, f.r.s.e., and
of the double-acting air-pump, erroneously ascribed to Francis Hauk.sbee, p.r.s. He was also the first who replaced the
stop-cock of the old air pump by a valve.

There is also an interesting account of the aerostatic projects of Francesco Lana {q. v. ante), which he followed up by
similar experiments.

'Tachenius proved himself an independent in'-estigator, to whom chemistry is indebted both for extremely valuable
observations and for speculations deduced from these . . . Among his other valuable observations, he contributedi
materially to elucidating that problem which Boyle considered the most important of all, viz. a knowledge of the
composition of bodies. It was with him that the lirst serviceable definition of the term ' salt,' as a compound of an acid
and an alkali, originated. His statements on the composition of various compounds show great acuteness, which is also
seen in the value which he laid ou certain reactions as tests for different substances. Tachenius thus laid the foundations
of qualitative chemistry in a more systematic manner than his predecessors.'— Pro/. E. v. Afet/er.

The editor contributed to it, in 1813-14, a long and important series of papers, ' in which the atomic theory was applied to
elucidate the composition of a very large number of compounds. These contributed largely to making the theory known,
especially on the Continent of Europe.'— D. N. B.

It also contains two anonymous papers, written in 1815, on the relation between the atomic weights of elements and
the Hpecific gravity of their vapours. These were written by Dr. William Prout, who afterwards developed from them
his erroneous hypothesis that hydrogen is a primary matter frotn which the other elements are formed by various
condensations.

' His great discovery was the interpretation of the previously known fact that water will ri.se in a suction pump only to
the height of about 32 feet — the idea that the column of fluid is sustained by the pressure of the atmosphere on the open
surface of fluid. The vacuum in the barometer is the Torricellian vacmcm ; and the barometer is sometimes called the
Torricellian tube. Torricelli al.so effected the quadrature of the cycloid— in this he was anticipated by Roberval— and
made other mathematical discoveries. To him is due the fundamental principle of Hydromechanics ; and he made and
greatly improved both tele.scopes and microscopes.'

According to R. Stuart {Historical and Descriptive Anecdotes of iSteam Engines, Vol. II., p. 61S). the anthor, who is not
included in the Biographie GetiArale, 'came to England in 1716 to obtain information regarding the mode of mining
followed at Newcastle. He remained in the neighbourhood for some years, and Avas employed as an engineer at a coal-
mine; he was a pupil of Desaguliers, and some of his improvements on the diving bell are described in the Doctor's
Experimental Philosophy. He returned to Sweden in 1726, and erected an atmospheric engine [swpral, the parts of which
he got fabricated in England. He was captain of mechanics, and military architect to the King of Sweden ; and was in
correspondence with some of his friends in the Royal Society until his death. He invented a mode of warming
conservatories by hot water.' According to the Record of the Royal Society, he was elected a Fellow in 1731.

Venetiis [c. 1595]

An extremely rare and interesting work of which three varieties are known : two having the descriptions only in Latin
and Italian, one issue of which has only 40 plates, and the third as above with the descriptions also in Spanish, French,
German, and 19 plates. This issue is the rarest of all. Some of the plates are of great ijnportance, e. g. plate 3S ' Homo
volans ', giving a perfect representation of a parachute, plates 34-36 suspension bridges, of which no. 34 is the earliest
description of one wholly of iron, 49 a diving belt, 41 a digging machine, 43 a rope-making machine, 40 a boat with paddle
wheels going up a river, and a great variety of wind, water, and mechanically-driven mills, oil presses, etc. Plate 4
represents ' Ecclesia Sibenici '

The author, a native of Sebenico, Dalmatia, was Bishop in Partibus of Canadium, in Hungary, and in his later years
appears to haved lived in Venice. There is a full description of the work in M. Libri's Histoire des Sciences McUMmatiqiies,
where it is termed ' un ouvrage tr^s rare qui ne se trouve guere indiqud par les bibliographcs.'

At the end of the descriptions is a List of Machines of the author's own invention, ' fra le quali veramente alcune sono
interessantissime ' (Riccardi).

' Belle edition '.—Brunei.

In his most important work. In Artem, ' the earliest work on symbolic algebra, explaining how algebra could be applied
to the solution of geometrical problems', he 'introduced the use of letters for both known and unknown (positive)
quantities, a notation for the powers of quantities, and enforce<l the advantage of working with homogeneous equations
. . . One of his improvements was that he denoted the known quantities by the consonants B, C, D, etc., and the unknown
quantities by the vowels A, E, I, etc., the other was to introduce new .symbols to represent the square, cube, etc. of
quantities whioh had already occurred in the equations . . . The.se two improvements were almost essential in any
further progress in algebra. . . . Vieta's works on geometry are good. He applied algebra and trigonometry to help him
in investigating the properties of figures ', etc. etc etc.— Jf, W. R. Ball.

Vitello's work contains not only a suoimary of all that was known on optics to the ancients and to Alhazen, but also
a number of original investigations,

' A work on optics less diffuse and more systematic than that of Al Hazen, on which it was based. Witelo explained
the twinkling of stars as due to the motion of the air, and showed that the effect was intensified if the star was viewed
through water in motion. He pointed out that the rainbow was not formed by reflexion alone, as was taught by
Aristotle, but was due to both reflexion and refraction.' — Prof Cajori.

The existence of a separate edition of his works was unknown to Poggendorff and Heller, who only quote the edition
published with Alhazen's works in \57i.

The second piece is the first complete edition of Euclid's works. The above copy contains the three preliminary 11., with
an address by Philip Melancthon, which were abstracted in nearly all cases by the clerical censor- an interesting instance

An elementary work which seems to have sufficed for the needs of a university education in the latter end of the
Seventeenth Century.

The author was Master of University College, Oxford, and went over to Rome on James II. 's accession, who
charged him with the uphill task of Romanising the University. Walker only succeeded however in getting 'the curses
of all both great and small' (Anthony d Wood), a sentiment also expressed in some contemporary doggerel, which was sung
by the undergraduates :

' Oh, old Obadiah

One of the classics of mechanics, containing the first exhaustive treatment of the theory of the collision of bodies con-
sidered as imperfectly elastic bodies— being the .solution of a problem propounded by the Royal Society— while Sir
Christopher Wren and Huygens treated the subject simultaneously, but confined their theory to perfectly elastic bodies.
On these investigations, according to Prof. Mach, Sir Isaac Newton based his researches contained in the Principia.

' Wallis geht von dem Grundsatze aus, dass das Moment, das Produkt aus der Masse (Pondus) und der Geschwindigkeit
(Celeritas), bei dem Stosse maassgebend sei. Durch dieses Moment wird die Kraft des Stosses bestimmt. Stossen zwei

Bishop Wat.son's success in chemistry was' at first a remarkable tovr de force, as on his appointment to the chair his
acquaintance with the science was absolutely nil, and he muzzed it up (ut ainnt Wentmonasterienses) for fourteen months
straightaway, with the help of experiments with an operator from Paris. He then quickly became a skilled original in-
vestigator, as shown above. This hard mental application was unneces.sary on his appointment to his next chair, that of
the Regius Professor of Divinity, in which, after a manner which should endear him to the editor of the S-pcctator, he
neglected systematic and historical theology, and lectured out of his inner consciousness.

machine the gla.«s globes, etc. have not the electrical power in themselves, but only serve as 'the first movers and
determiners of thac power '. He agrees with the Abbe Nollet in regarding electricity as existing normally everywhere
in a state of equilibrium, and regards the electrical machine as comi>arable to a pump which accumulates electricity on

' The MS. was shown to Newton and Wren. It was praised by Locke . . . Whiston's speculation was meant to supersede
the previous theory of Thomas Burnet. He confirmed the narrative in Genesis on Newtonian grounds, explaining the
Deluge by collision with a comet \—>iir Leslie Stephen.

' Whiston was one of the first who ventured to propose that the text of Genesis should be interpreted diflTerently from
its ordinary acceptatiin, so that the doctrine of the earth having existed long previous to the creation might no longer be
regarded as unorthodox . . , Locke pronounced a panegyric on his theory, commending it for having explained so many
wonderful and before inexi)licablp things.'— ,S'irC/iarZ€« Lyell. The work was attacked by John Kkill (v. No. 10021 ante).

It is a touching fact in Eighteenth Century Arianism that whatever doubts it may have had as to the cardinal fact of
Christianity, it was as unswervingly faithful to the Deluge as his wife was to Mr. Micawber.

Including ' New Experiments and Observations [made at the Pantheon] on the Nature and Use of Conductors,' by B,
Wilson (pp. 69).

'He had a long coutroversy with Benjamin Franklin on the question whether lightning-conductors should be round or
pointed at the top [asserting that pointed fonductors attracted the lightning], and was supported in his views by George
III., who declared his experiments were sufficient to convince the apple-women in Covent Garden.' — D. N. B. The above
was the author's last eff'ort in the advocacy of ball-shaped conductors, which in the above case gained strength from the
fact that the Purfleet Powder Magazine, which was provided with pointed conductors, was struck by the lightning.

Including his experiments with three powerful Leyden jars, when he obtained sparks that could be seen at a distance
of 200 yards in broad daylight. From their discharge he inferred that the phenomena of lightning and thunder must be
the result of an electric discharge on a large scale. Winkler was also the first to mention that the earth was a good conductor
of electricity.

One of the classic contributions to stereo-chemistry.

' Wislicenus has attempted to explain phenomena of this kind [metamerism] by the aid of an hypothesis propounded
by van t'Hoff and Lebel. According to this hypothesis, which was designed with the object of explaining the optical
activity <^f isomeric compounds, the centre of gravity of an atom in carbon is supposed as in the middle of a tetrahedron,
and its four affinities as at the four corners .... Wislicenus has made this hypothesis the basis of his discussions and
experimental researches.' — Prof. E. v. Mi'ycr.

the interference of light undulations which had traversed different paths, and concluded with the proposition 'Radiant
light consists of undulations of the luminiferous ether'.*— D. N. B.

First edition ok tub first important star atlas. ' Bayer, the German astronomer, was the first to improve on the
old plan [of distinpuishinj? stars by the locality they occupied and their constellations, e.g., Oculm Tauri for a Tauri],
which he did by publishing in 1603 a celestial atlas, iu which the stars of each constellation were distinguished by the
letters of the Greek alphabet, Bayer's letters are still in common use.'— TAc late G. F. Chambers, F.R.A.S.

An earlier attempt to classify stars was made by Alessandro Piccolomini (v. Nos. 8625-8 and 13298 ante), who used
Latin letters for distinguishing four different magnitudes.

'During above 30 years he inculcated the elements of chemistry upon enthusiastic and continually growing audiences.
' It could not be otherwise ', Robison wrote in 1803. ' His personal appearance and manner were those of a gentleman,
and peculiarly pleasing. His voice in lecturing was low, but fine ; and his articulation so distinct that he was perfectly
well heard by an audience consisting of several hundreds. His discourse was so plain and perspicuous, his illustrations
by experiments so apposite, that his sentiments on any subject never could be mistaken, even by the most illiterate ; and
his instructions were so clear of all hypothesis or conjecture, that the hearer rested on his conclusions with a confidence
scarcely exceeded in matters of his own experience.' His lecturss had thus a powerful ett'ect in popularising chemistry ;
and attendance upon them even came to be a fashionable amusement '.— 2). N. B.

15633 MORGAN (Augustus de ; f.r.a.s., Prof. Mathematics, Univ. Coll., London) A Budget of
Paradoxes, revised and edited with full Bibliographical Notes and Index by David Eugene
Smith, Teachers' College, Columbia University, 2 vols. 8vo. (pp. 1000), cl. Chicago, 1915

One of the most interesting and witty books ever written, and invaluable for its history and bibliography of some
scientific fallacies, e.g. ' circle-squaring *. It contains besides a large number of anecdotes, etc. on mathematical and
scientific subjects. ' He had a love of puns, and all ingenious puzzles and paradoxes, which makes his ' Budget of
Paradoxes' as amusing as it is learned.' — Sir Leslie Stephen.

' It is by far the most individual book of the age— individual, not merely in its own .singularity as a book, but as
presenting with a marked degree of clearness and exactness the personality of one who was never quite a man among
other men. ... To sum up, this is a book that should be read by those who care about circle squarers and all manner of
jokes, mathematical and other ; by those who care to make the acquaintance of Augustus de Morgan, which it is
well worth while to do ; but above all by those who care to be led into right thinking and warned from wrong.' — Prof.
W. K. Clifford.

The work is now rendered additionally valuable by the bibliographical notes and index by Prof. D. E. Smith. The
original edition has been out of print for many years, and is very scarce.

'A work of great merit. Had it been studied more diligeutly by writers of text-books in England and the United
States, many a lax and loose method of analysis hardly as yet eradicated from elementary text-books would have been
discarded over half a century ago. Cauchy was the first to publish a rigorous proof of Taylor's theorem. He greatly
improved the exposition of fundamental principles of the ditterential calculus by his mode of considering limits and his
new theory on the continuity of functions.* -Prof. Cajori.

The author was the victim of one of the most remarkable and barefacei forgeries ever committed. Starting with the
purcha.se of a spurious correspondence by Pascal, in which the latter claimed all the discoveries made by Newton, the
forger, Lucas, a half-educated frequenter ol the Bibliothi-que Nationale, was encouraged to the production of the ino.st
extraordinary forgeries, which were all bought greedily and in good faith by the simple matheftiatician. They included
' autograph ' letters of Socrates, Aristotle, Alexander the Great, Cicero, C.nesar, Cleopatra, and St. Jerome ; besides Judas
Iscariot, Lazarus after his resurrection, and even the Blessed Virgin Mary ; and every one of them written in modern

as was possible by the application of ordinary algebra. . . . The law of quadratic reciprocity, which connects any two odd
primes, was first proved in this book. Gauss called the proposition ' the gem of arithmetic' . . . The work also contains
the useful theorem by which, when it is possible, an indeterminate equation of the ^nd degree can be reduced to the form

* By considering space as made up of lines he created ' a new geometry of space'. Regarding a right line as a curve

involving four arbitrary parameters, one has the whole system of lines in space. By connecting them by a single relation,

he got a ' complex ' of lines ; by connecting them with a twofold relation, a ' congruency ' of lines '.—Prof. Cajori.

* Like all of Riemann's researches, those on functions were profound and far-reaching. He laid the fouadation for a
general theory of functions of a complex variable. The theory of potential, which up to that time had been used only
in mathematical physics, was applied by him to pure mathematics.' — Prof. Cajori. The above contains also his celebrated

'Embodying the chief discoveries of its author.'— PT. W. R. Ball.

' A subject of which little was then known, and Avhich was introduced to the ordinary student by Salmon's labours.' —
Abp. Bernard.

' Salmon helped powerfully towards the spreading of a knowledge of the new algebraic and geometric methods by th&
publication of an excellent series of text-books.' — Prof. Cajurl.

' Upon these four treatises his fame as a mathematician rests. . . . Salmon's methods made little use of the calculus,
or of the quaternion analysis invented by his contemporary, Sir W. R. Hamilton; nor, again, did he ever handle the
non-Euclidean geometry. His strength lay in his complete mastery of geometric and algebraic processes, and this^
coupled with his indefatigable industry as a calculator, enabled him to produce original work of permanent value.'—
Abp. Bernard.

The always striking fellowship of theology and mathematics has seldom had a greater exami)le than in Dr. Salmon r
and the weight it lent him was a source of strength to the Irish Church throughout the throes of disestablishment
and reconstruction, as well as to Christian evidence.

have endeavoured to api)ly some of the results to the vortex atom theory of matter.' — Preface. It was awarded the
Adams Prize of Cambridge University.

Written under the aegis of the Helmholtz-Kelvin Vortex Theory, when the indestructible ether vortex, moving in an
absolutely frictionless medium, was supposed to be the last word in the question of the constitution of matter, it yet
bids fair to contribute towards its explanation even under the spell of the Electron Theory.

' In this work he reduced the study of what he called pure mechanics to a system. It is the earliest attempt to
develop, with anything like completeness, the science of machines considered from the kinematic point of view, without
reference to the forces which are at work or to the energy which is transmitted.'— D. N. B.

Professor Willis, like Dr. Whewell, was one of the rare examples of a mathematician who cared for Pointed Architecture,
however natural, on its constructional side, such an interest might seem. His study however went far beyond Dr. Whe well's,
and he was, with Mr. Freeman, one of the ablest amateur authorities on English architecture, and his advice^was of much
value in the restoration of many of the Cathedrals.

' Miller developed a system of crystallojjraphy which was far more simple, symmetrical, and adapted to mathe-
matical calculations than any which has yet been devised. Miller's system was published in 1839 ; it quickly obtained
favour, and has more than maintained its ground with mineralogists.'— Pro/. Bonney, pr., F.R.S.

' His system gave expressions adapted for working all the problems that a crystal can present, and it gave them in a.
form that api)ealed at once to the sense of symmetry and appropriateness of the mathematician . . . He thus placed
the kf'vslone into the arch of the science of crystallography.' — rrof. Story- Ifaskelyne, F.R.S.
