Excerpt from A System of Natural Philosophy: In Which the Principles of Mechanics, Hydrostatics, Hydraulics, Pneumatics, Acoustics, Optics, Astronomy, Electricity, Magnetism, Steam Engine, and Electro-Magnetism, Are Familiarly Explained, and Illustrated by More Than Two Hundred Engravings, to Which Tan author has the satisfaction of being again called upon by his well - known, and enterprising publishers to superintend the proofs Of a new set of stereotype plates for this work, being the fifth which its circulation has required in this country. In this improved edition, although large portions of the contents have been rewritten, and much new matter added, the author has been careful not to make such changes as to render it unfit to be used in classes with the last edition. In attempting to make this copy more complete and useful than the former ones, the author has availed himself of the addi tions and corrections, made by Professor Lees of the Naval and Military Academy of Edinburgh, and of those of Professor Hob lyn, Lecturer in The Institute of Medicine and Arts, London, these two gentleman having done him the honor to associate their names with that of the author, in two several editions of this work. In the Chapters on the Steam Engine, and Astronomy, it was found that many paragraphs might be omitted with advantage to the essential parts Of the subjects. These erasures have been replaced by a description of the Railroad Locomotive and by the insertion of Tables containing the names of the new Asteroids, and of those of their discoverers, with the date of each discovery.
