Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 1 In rendering this work into English, the translator has endeavoured to give a faithful version without doing violence to the idioms of our own language, and has in closed in brackets the additions which he has made in two or three instances to the original text. From page 233. To page he has substituted the methods given by Baily and Littrow for the barometric measurement of altitudes for that of the author, which was both more involved than theirs, and also too long for the space that could be afforded for it in the translation. A very few Notes have been added, either explanatory of the text, or for the sake of giving the Opinions of eminent philosophers.
