Useful parts of

from the non useful

Curves of different orders mixing one above another in
hierarchy the more formidable the greater the number of its stages
In what instances were they respectively exemplified?

Chrestomathic study must finish long before the field of practical use has
been travelled over.

Signal would be the service rendered to mankind, if
by some competent hand a time couldcan be and were to
be drawn between that part ofdivision<add>thoug</add> those parts in the field
of mathematics in which the contents of which are
and then the contents of which are not susceptible of
practically useful application

1 In some instances the whole contents of the field are or 2
Examples of the

of the useful kind. <add>of the useful kind, and in respect of right practice absolutely necessary of this useful kind. Such is the case for example
withis the doctrine of porp probabilities, so far at least
as the application of it is confined to such event
as besides being actually exemplified or liable to be
exemplified are of a nature interesting to let probable
to be productive of pain or pleasure to mankind.
In these instances figure has no place.
To the field of arithmetics - delopoise or adelopoise
simple or algebraical - manifestly expressive or non-
manifestly expressive - this class of instances is confused
Such again is the calculation of the quantity increase given added to any mass of
money or moneys worth by allowance money paid made for it whether in the shape of interest or discount.

2. In another class of instances also is or II. Uranological

Topographical
Uranology

the whole contents of the field are of this useful kind
and at the same time necessary kind.

This field is the field of uranological geography
or topography. the field of astronomy in so far as
the artmass of and science belonging to it is applicable
to the ascertainment of the extent of of the relation the position of places
single spaces or spa on the earth's surface.

For this class of instances not only number but Here papers as

figure is a necessary object of regard. The field
that belongs to themof which they belong has therefore neither that portion of the field
of mathematics which is common to Geometry and Arithmetic
and Geometry.
