' 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. 8807 La STATIQUE des VEGETAUX, et I'ANALYSE de 1'AiR : Experiences Nouvelles lues a la Societe Royale de Londres, Ouvrage traduit par [G.

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, whereas Gocdyear 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.

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 Saundersou'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.1 THE ABOVE IS THE ACTUAL 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.

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 in 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 Original Work in Manuscript, by JOHAN HORRINS [anagram], Gent., 8vo. hf.cl., uncut (scarce), 15s 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. 5s Scec.

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. Clerke. 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. 9432 * POSTHUMOUS WORKS, containing his Cutlerian Lectures, and other Discourses, read at the Royal Society, in which, 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'h.

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 ' evolntes.' ... 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. '—Prof. Cajori.

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.

Compounds were classified as binary and ternary, and these designations 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 salts, produced by the combination of bases with acids . . . The advance which is shown by this classification 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.' — Pro/. E. v.

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, . . .

Is Lerebours et Secretan [1852] This work, besides being a resume of all then known of photography, gives several new processes ; but is of still greater interest in connexion with the rival claims of the author and FREDERICK SCOTT ARCHER (1813-57) to the discovery of the COLLODION PROCESS. The latter (according to D. N. B.) ' in 1850 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 attached little importance to it, and recommends it only ' sous le rapport de la finesse et de la rapidite.' Pp. 89-1 11 give a description of his collodion process.

It was the only serious claim published in Leibniz's favour, and a tardy reply to the Commercium Epistolicum (v. No. 3282 ante), which gave the evidence in Newton's favour. However little the merits of Leibniz's claim may be as 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. 10701 CORRESPONDANCE avec OLDENBURG, COLLINS, NEWTON, GALLOYS, et VITALE GIORDANO, publie"e par C.

It was based on the work of BACUET DE MEZIRIAC (v.

Later researches have shown that this is due to the nodules on the rootlets of these plants, which causev through bacterial action (symbiosis), the conversion of the nitrogen of the air into nitrogenous salts. •10847 TRAITE de CHIMIE ORGANIQUE : Edition Francaise, considerablement augmented par I'AUTEUR, et publie"e par CHARLES GERHARDT, 3 vols.

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 ho 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 1852, 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. 10S56 LIMBIRD (James) ACCOUNT of the STRATA observed in sinking for "Water at BOSTON, Lines., 4to.

Meyer, 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 his 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 considered as a forerunner of Francis Bacon, while his greatest work, the Ars Generalis sive 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 ended by his death by stoning at Bougie in the year 1315— a Mediaeval union of science and faith glorified by a pathetic heroism whose memory has long been let to fade away. 11039 LTJNAKDI (Vincent, Secretary to the Neapolitan Ambassador) ACCOUNT of the FIRST AERIAL VOYAGE in ENGLAND, in Letters to his Guardian CHEVALIER GHERARDO COMPAGNI, written under the Impressions of the various Events that affected the Undertaking, first edition, with fine portrait by F.

The cause of it was an attack of [George] Berkeley [Bp. of Cloyne] on the principles of the infinitesimal calculus [v. Nos. 6144-5 ante]. In it he gave a proof of the theorem that f(x) = f(o) + xf (o) +^ff" (o) + . . . He also gave the correct theory of maxima and mirima, 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'.— W. 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 investigation second only to Newton's, Maclaurin had no need to abandon Newton's methods in favour of any easier ; and it was naturally more gratifying to his patriotism to develop the fluxional calculus to its fullest extent than to resort to the differential methods in use on the Continent. The result 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 after 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, 1746, aged forty-eight — the perferviflum ingenium Scotorum thus moving a mathematician to defend Edinburgh in the Eighteenth Century as it has moved our greatest • m He&elian to reorganise the British Army in the Twentieth in the person of the present Lord Chancellor. 11236 MACLAUBIN (James Scott; F.C.S.)

The last, which was originally published in Liebig's Annalen in 1812, or 5 years before Helmholtz's paper (v. No. 9109, ante), first established the principle of the conservation of energy.

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 Testament, 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, Meibom caused the musical instruments of the ancients 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 harsh voice, the attempt caused great merriment. He considered himself insulted, and in a fit of rage boxed the ears of the Queen's physician, which at once put a stop to the revival of ' classic ' music, and to his further stay in Sweden. 11728 MELANCHTHON [hie MELANTHON, germanice SCHWARZERD] (Philipp) DOCTRINCE PHYSICS ELEMENTA, sive INITIA, dictata in Academia Vuitebergensi, ex postrema Autoris Recognitione, cum Rerum et Verborum Indice ; editio princeps [col. :] Basilece, ex ojfic.

Century hand (very rare), £3. 15s 1550-4 The above first edition of the Doctrince, 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 1587, while the other two only knew an edition of 1531. The work is not mentioned at all by Brunet and Ebert. According to Kastner, 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 Phenomena, 1521, Purbachii Theories, 1534 \_v.

If. 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.

Father Mersenne was in constant correspondence with all the most celebrated men of his time, e. g., Galileo, Tonicelli, Pascal, Descartes, Fermat, Rnberval, and others, and in this collection has published, 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 '. — Libri Catalogue. The work consists of the following independent treatises, with separate titles : De Mensuris, Ponderibus et Nummis ; Hydrauliea Pneumatica ; Ars Navigandi ; Harmonia Thecrioa, Practica fMusica], et Mechanica Phenomena; Ballistica et Acontismologia ; Universe Geometric, Mixtseque Mathematics Synopsis, et bini Refractionum Demon- stratarum Tractatus ; Nova? Observationes Physico-Mathematiae, quibus accessit ARISTARCHUS SAMNIUS de Mundi Systemate. Of special importance is his suggestion (Phenomena 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 of p, 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.

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'.— Miss Agnes M.

The above is a very rare, if not unique, i>wi(-e, not only from having a portrait added, but also for having, in place of the ' Almanac Perpetuel' usually occurring, a ' Table des Pieds Quarrez et Pieds Cubiques '. This is the author's most important work (no English edition of which has ever been published), and include.-; his invention of the phmger pump, containing the gland and stuffing box — a contrivance often erroneously attributed to James Watt. The appendix contains ' Reflexions tres-curieuses sur la Proportion Continue', ' Table pour la Quadrature du Cercle', and Huit Problemes de Mechanique proposez aux plus habiles Machinistes du Siecle', ' Morland was one of the chief mechanicians of his time. His most important discoveries were in connexion with hydrostatics. 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 field (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 above 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 pump was invented by Sir Samuel Morland, and patented by him in 1675. The best feature in ttir Samuel's invention is the stuffing-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 '.—William Pole, F.R S. 12159 HYDROSTATICKS : or, INSTRUCTIONS concerning WATER WORKS collected out of the Papers of SIR SAMUEL MORLAND [with Preface by his Son JOSEPH MORLAND], containing the Method which he made Use of in this Curious Art, with 5 woodcuts, 16mo. contemporary sheep (RARE), £1. 5s John Lawrence, 1697 ' Containing an account of various methods of raising water, and tables of square and cube roots.

' 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 requirements of the 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 ', 1792. Maskelyne retorted in ' An Answer to a Narrative of Facts' (v. No. 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. Nos. 8965-0 and 8970, ante), 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.' — D.N.B. 12244 MUDGE (Major-Gen.

(pp. 980), d., uncut (SCARCE), 15s 1840 The author is perhaps best known for his process of making steel by melting in crucibles iron-ore mixed with a suitable proportion of carbonaceous matter— practically the same as the ancient Hindoo process for wootz— which he sold for £3000 to a Sheffield firm. The work contains also important papers on the hot-blast furnace, the reduction of iron ores, and on iron alloys. ' The chief of Mushet's inventions was perhaps one patented in 1800 for the preparation of steel from bar iron by a direct process. His other patents relate to the extraction of iron from cinder and to improvements in tke process of puddling iron.'— D. N.

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 probably constitutes the most important printed work on exact science ever published need hardly "be emphasised. It should also be noted that the first edition 7ias 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 preface to the second edition that copies of the first were scarce, and could only be obtained at an immense prio.e. Sir William Browne, when at college, 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.' 622 HENRY SOTHERAN & CO., 140, STRAND, W.C., AND 43, PICCADILLY, W.

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 causa occitlta, is of great historical importance. It also contains a new preface by the author, the Latin verses on him by EDMDND HALLEY, the Astronomer Royal, and an ' Index Capitum ' and ' Index Rerum Alphabeticus ' at end, both by the Editor.

It expounds Newton's corpuscular or emission 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, vis., ' Enumcratio Linearum II [. Ordinis', and 'Tractatus de Quadratura Curvarum ', containing his invention of the ' fluxional ' calculus. They were here published for the first time, especially with a view to assert Newton's rights to the discovery of the calculus (of which the controversy with Leibniz was then just preparing). In his introduction to the Tractatus he states that he had invented the 'method' in 1665-6 — thus claiming priority over Leibniz. According to the Advertisement, • the ensuing discourse was written at the desire of som* Gentlemen of the Royal Society, in 1(575. 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 1676 ... I mentioned a Method by which I had found some general Theorems about squaring curvilinear Figures . . . And some Years ago I lent out a Manuscript containing such Theorems, and having since met with some Things copied out of it, I have on this Occasion made it publick '. 12537 ANOTHER COPY, without the Two Mathematical Treatises, with 12 folding plates, 4to. old calf (joints cracked) , £1 . 5s [ 1704] The above consists of the optical part only, with a neAv title, without date, place, or printer's name, but giving the author's name.

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.' — Advertisement II. 12541 THIRD EDITION, corrected, with 12 folding plates, 8vo. old calf, or, old calf, neatly rebacked, 12$ apud eosdem, 1721 This is a literal reprint of the foregoing edition, save fora few corrections and the addition of one passage in the last sentence in the work referring'to Noah and his sons, as pointed out in the note to Newton's annotated copy of the second edition (No. 12539, supra). 12542 - — FOURTH [FINAL] EDITION, corrected, with 12 folding plates, 8vo. old calf, or, old calf, newly rebacked (RARE), 17s 6d William Innys, 1730 This was the last edition revised by the Author.

In all the previous issues of the 1722 and 1725 editions occurs the passage : ' Quae novas Principiorum editioni pnemissa sunt, Xewtonus non vidit antequam Liber in lucem prodiit. Quoe de Qusestionibus Philosophicis disputata sunt D. Des Maizeaux a D. Leibnitio et aliis accepit et in lucem edidit,' with a note referring to Leibniz's letters to Des Maizeaux. In the above issue however the passage '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 1726 the Scholium referring to Leibniz (vide note to No. 12510). ' It is due to historical truth to state, that Newton supplied all the materials for the Commercium Epistolicum, 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. 12571 COMMERCIUM EPISTOLICUM . . . ou CORRESPONDANCE de J.

It was his first work on electricity and magnetism, and unknown to Poggendorff, who mentions the Qvestioni 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-multiplier, discovered the present form of the galvanometer by combining Schweigger's multiplier with Ampere's astatic needle, and was the first to prove that fluids in contact show an electro-motive action. 12704 NOETHER, (Max; Univ.

He propounded a twofold-motion fluid hypothesis of electricity, by which he attempted to explain electric attraction and repulsion ; investigated the influence of electricity on the germination of seeds ; and constructed a primitive electroscope consisting of two linen threads, which, being projected on an arc of 180°, were to show the amount of the electric charge by the rate of their angular divergence. 12739 LECONS de PHYSIQUE EXPERIMENTAL^, 6e Edition ; with front, and over 100 folding copperplates,' 6 vols. 12mo. old hf. calf, 15s 1764 12740 HUITIEME EDITION ; with fine portrait by Beauvarlet after La Tour (sjjlendid impression), and over 100 folding copperplates, 6 vols. 12mo. contemporary mottled calf extra (portrait and afeiv II. slightly water-stained in vol.

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.

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.

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 1635 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.'—/).

(250 COPIES PRINTED, ONLY 200 OF WHICH ARE FOR SALE), £2. 2s 1913 The celebrated ' Coloquious d'os 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 Tndia ; 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 Historia ' 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 da 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 agreeably pleased by its quaint and curious style, so reminiscent of the Dialogues in Walton's 'Angler.' 'In spite of occasional bombast or intolerance a remarkable book; and all who are concerned with the history ot simples are under great obligation to Sir Clements Markham for his painstaking translation from a language which lew are able to read '.—Times. 12836 OSBORN (Henry Stafford, Lafayette College) PRACTICAL MANUAL of MINERALS, MINES, and MINING : Suggestions as to the Localities and Associations of all the Useful Minerals, Methods for their Analyses, and Hints on the various Operations of Mining, including Architecture and Construction, 35 plates with 111 figures, roy. 8vo. cl., Is tid (p. £1.

' 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 length bills of exchange and the theory of book-keeping by double entry. This part was then the first systematic exposition of algoristic arithmetic. ... In the algebra he discusses in some detail simple and quadratic equations, and problems on numbers which lead to such equations. He mentions the Arabic classification of cubic equations, but adds that their solution appears to be as impossible as the quadrature of the circle. . . .

The contract was, however, given to William Boswell, 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 or £15,000. was granted to him by parliament, and 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. (supra).'— 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 1698 he proceeded to Russia, engaged by the TSAR PETER, to superintend 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.

He introduces an ' Expenses-Book ', and at the end of every month transfers the total to cash account by means of the journal. . . . Petri's book is truly one otprhnary entry.' — Richard Brown.

The book is probably the first instance of the use 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 1S23. He was in Paris in 1789 and probably took part in the taking of the Bastille, but afterwards quarrelled with the Revolution. The above work is not mentioned in D. N. 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 fine effect by FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE, who found her ' coxcombs ' trump cards against Lord Panmure, and the best of all means of bringing the state of the Army in barracks home to the English people. >1343l PLUCHl£ (Abbe Noel Antoine) The HISTORY of the HEAVENS, considered according to the Notions of the Poets and Philosophers, compared with the DOCTRINES of MOSES, translated by J.

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 Geamnt,-i< des Raiimes] 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.

The Magia Naturalis in four books is quite a different 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 canuraobscura without the lens, the discovery of which is generally ascribed to Leonardo da Vinci, but was really first mentioned by Levi ben Gerson in a work translated in A.D. 1342 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 needle 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 Magut- Naturalis Index ' (pp. 10), which is absent in the second edition of Antwerp, 15o4, and other reprints.

Porta's Magia Naturalis in Twenty Books is quite a different work from that in Four Books, first published in 1558, 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 hpwever 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, with engraved title (including portrait) by R.

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

A. de Coulomb in the important suggestion that the law of electric attraction is that of the inverse square, deducing this from an experiment suggested by Franklin.'— D. N. ZJ. This work contains not only the most copious history of the subject written at the time, but many valuable original experiments of the author's. Of special interest are the chapters 'Theories of Electricity' (pp. 441-1*6 of 1st Ed.), and 'New Experiments in Electricity, made in 1706' (pp. 573-733 of the first Edition). Among the latter the second Edition iirst 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' (shovring the oscillatory nature of the electric discharge— a discovery erroneously mentioned in D. N. K. as having been made in 1770, and anticipating one by Sir Oliver Lodge), and ' Various Experiments on the force of Electrical Explosions '. 13669 OBSERVATIONS on DIFFERENT KINDS of AIR, with folding copperplate by J.

' He was led to study gases by watching the process of fermentation in a brewery next his house ; and in March 177:.' 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 (hydrochloric acid) and nitrous air (nitric oxide), and showed the feasibility of substituting the latter for living mire as a means of measuring tin goodness of air, a suggestion which led, in the hands of Fontana, Landriani, Cavendish, and others, to exact eudiometry. He showed that in air exposed over Avater, one-fifth disappears in processes of combustion, respiration, and putrefaction, and that plants restore air vitiated by these processes ; and that no known gas conducted electricity. The paper also contained a proposal to saturate water Avith 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 comment, 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 proved to be identical with the as yet undiscovered oxygen. The paper was awarded the Copley medal of the Royal Society, and was at once abstracted at length by Lavoisier and criticised by him.' — D. JV. JB.

Appended is 'Tractatus super Propositiones Ptolemaei de Sinubus et Chordis ', by GEORG PEUERBACH (Purbachius), the teacher of Regiomontanus. ' This is the earliest modern systematic exposition of trigonometry, plane and spherical, though the only trigono- metrical functions introduced are those of sine and cosine '.— IF. W. R. Ball. ' Regiomontanus and Purbach adopted the Hindoo nine in place of the Greek chord of doitUc the arc. Regiomontanus emphasised the use of the tangent in trigonometry, and following oufc some ideas of his master, calculated a table of tangents ... He was the author of a complete treatise on trigonometry, containing 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." — Prof. Cajori. Nothing is known of the author of the second work, who is not mentioned by Montucla or Poggendorff (who mistakenly attributes the work to Regiomontanus), or in other bibliographies. It forms an appendix to the first work, and is especially interesting for its numerous well-executed woodcuts, which include many on artillery bombarding fortresses, which are still based on the contemporary notion that the projectile travels in a straight line, and after its strength is -spent, drops vertically (i-. No. 8212 ante). Poggendorft" mentions a Johannes Noviomagus (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 Noviomagus. 13994 BEGNAULT (Henri Victor, de VInstitut; F.R.S.)

E., with 3 folding plates, and woodcuts, 8vo. cl., 6s 1850 This is the work that contains the author's imaginary discovery of od, a physical force intermediate between electricity, magnetism, heat, and light, to which the phenomena of hypnotism (then ' mesmerism ') are to be due. In its narrower sense it agrees perhaps best with Prof. Forel's neurokymc*. The subject may still offer a lield of speculation to the scientilic mystic in connexion with the undiscovered octaves of ether waves. It consists of 2 parts, the first treating of ' Physico-Physiological Researches on the Imponderables, in their Relation to the Vital Force ', and the second of ' Magnetic or Odylic Light.'

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, 'now for the first time shown in an intelligible form ', has proved to be a vast Saturniform body. ... A single plate exposed on a region in Cygnus has shown more than 16,003 stars ; whilst the spiral nebula in Canes Venatici has been depicted with most wonderful distinctness.' — G. F.

His Discourse on . . . Fluxions (v. II) is a reply to Bp. Berkeley's Analyst (v. Nos. 347 and 6144-5, ante), and 'a very clear, neat, and elegant performance ' (Dr. Hulton).

Is THE BEST EDITIONS. The work was reprinted in 1813. 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 story of the Eddystone lighthouse is told 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.' — Samutl Smiles. 14921 : WESTON (Robert Harcourt) LETTERS and IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS relative to EDY- STONE LIGHTHOUSE, selected chiefly from the Correspondence of the late ROBERT WESTON, and from other MSS., with Report made to the Lords of the Treasury in 1809. by the TRINITY COR- PORATION, with some Observations thereon, with 2 copperplates of the Eddystone Lighthouse, 4to. hf.calf,8s6d 1811 Including the correspondence between Smeaton and Robert Weston (one of the proprietors) with reference to the Eddystone Lighthouse. 14922 : LETTERS and MEMORIALS respecting the CLAIM on the TRINITY CORPORATION, for Recompense due to the Service of the late ROBERT WESTON, as a Proprietor of the EDYSTONE LIGHTHOUSE, with Notes and Observations, 4to.

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 reducing many theorems to geometrical propositions, 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.'— W. W. R. Ball. A full account of this classic of statics will be found in Prof. E. Mach's ' Science of Mechanics.'

Petreium, 1544 ' The first two books deal with surds and iucommensurables, and are Euclidean in form. The third is on algebra, and is noticeable for having called general attention to the German practice of using the signs + 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 opinion 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-\ were known.'— -W. W. R.

It was with him that the first serviceable definition of the term ' salt,' as a compound of an acid and an alkali, originated.

He then quickly became a skilled original in- vestigator, as shown above. This hard mental application was unnecessary 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 Spectator, he neglected systematic and historical theology, and lectured out of his inner consciousness. 15470 WATSON (Sir William, M.D., F.R.S.)

There was no copy of any of the above three works, the only important ones written by the author on electricity, in the Ronalds Library. 15604 WISLICENUS (Johannes ; Univ.

M. 4) Leipzig, 1889 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'Hoffand 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. Meyer. 15605 WOLLASTON (William Hyde, M.D., F.R.S.)

' Bayer, the German astronomer, was the first to improve on the old plan [of distinguishing stars by the locality they occupied and their constellations, e.g., Oculus Tauri for a Tauri], which he did by publishing in 1603 a celestial atlas, in which the stars of each constellation were distinguished by the letters of the Greek alphabet. Bayer's letters are still in common use.'— The late G. F. Chambers, F.R.A.S. An earlier attempt to classify stars was made by ALESSANDRO PICCOLOMINI (v. Nos. 3625-8 and 13298 ante), who used Latin letters for distinguishing four different magnitudes. 15619 BLACK (Joseph, M.D., F.R.S.E., Prof. Chemistry, Edin.)

' 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.'

Is 1840-4 'A work of great merit. Had it been studied more diligently by writers of text -books in England and the United States, many a lax aud 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 differential calculus by his mode of considering limits and his new theory on the continuity of functions.' -Pro/.

The conclusion pointed to was that the physical forces are mutually related, because all are modes of pressure of the same ethereal medium. The work in which these views were most fully embodied was ' Notes on the Principles on Pure and Applied Calculation'.'— Miss Agnes M.

The theory of potential, which up to that time had beeu used only in mathematical physics, was applied by him to pure mathematics.'— Prof. Cajori. The above contains also his celebrated thesis, Grundlagen fiir eine allgemeine Theorie der Functionen einer veranderlichen complexen Grosse, ' which excited the admiration of Gauss to a very unusual degree ', and his famous memoir on the hypotheses on which geometry is founded. 16525 PARTIELLE DIFFERENTIALGLEICHUNGEN und deren Anwendung auf physikalische Fragen, bearbeitet und herausgegeben von KARL HATTENDORF ; 3.

' A subject of which little was then known, and which 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 the publication of an excellent series of text-books.' — Prof. Cajuri. ' 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 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, as well as to Christian evidence. 16559 SANDEN (Horst v., Univ.

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 exam pies 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.
