Though the publications of the Royal
Society have ever been
impartially appropriated to the reception of
such facts and disquisitions as belong
exclusively to the physical department of science division in the field of human
knowledge, yet where the aid of calculation is called in employ'd,
subjects disquisitions which otherwise would
seem to belong come exclusively to the department
ethical or logical branch, have
on several occasions have been thought seemed
foreign to the alteration of the beauty
not always, been excluded from the honour
of a reception an among the papers to
which the stamp of its authority is communicated.
