From this it seems to appear that no description
can be given to the state of bodies are in when Things
Said to be
Added when
added which shall distinguish them from
when separate
No general rules can be giveninstances they can be put in
that will enable instills you to assert that for
all purposes they are either added or
separated. Things may be said to be
added as to number altho' they be 1000
miles asunder. altho' kingdoms are between
them. It is not for all purposes that
even Chemical combination would be called
addition. suppose a ductile chemical ition
to be weighed in a scale and upon iding the
has not enough of it to cappoize the weight
you were to apply a piece of sh some
composition one end to the beam of
the scale & the other to the former
quantity of sig and chemically combine
them, so long as the whole of the weight
did not act upon that part of the
beam to which the scale is attatched
and at which the original quantity
counted its power to gravitation,
so long would not this piece would not be
said to be added to the other.
