when I sent you the Bibliotheque
Economique along with the other books
you may imagine I did not mean
to guarantee the truth of the articles
contained in them or even the value
of them in any respect: It thought no more indeed
to the writers themselves, as they have the
in their preface to observe. I thought
it might prove acceptable to you
as serving to give an idea of what
has been done or said to have been
done of late in that way in France
and other nations on the Continent.
As such I think it can be hardly fact
to have its value more or less according
to the accidental fertility of
the year. I mean therefore to take
it in regularly.
I have just got transcribed for
you an article from the Dijon
memoirs containing a description of a
portable it may be called a pocket chemical apparatus contrived
by M. de Crierveau, whom
Thirvan in his new Mineralogy stiles
"one of the first chymists of the age"
(Pref. p. iii) This frank will hardly
hold it: but if there be room I shall
send it by the next. I wrote about a
fortnight
