Excerpt from Annals of Philosophy, or Magazine of Chemistry, Mineralogy, Mechanics, Natural History, Agriculture, and the Arts, Vol. 9: January to June, 1817 I have endeavoured since the commencement of the Annals 9] Philosophy to lay before the British public every chemical fact that has come to my knowledge, in whatever part of the world the dis covery took place. But the great number of original communies tions, which nearly fill this Journal, preclude the possibility of trans lating the papers published on the continent in such numbers as I originally intended. The Object of the historical sketch, with which each'new year of the Annals commences, is to supply the place of this omission. It costs me considerable trouble; but it saves a great deal to the reader, by giving him in a small compass what, when originally published, occupied many volumes. The chemical and mineralogical department of this sketch will always be found the most complete. I compose them first, and endeavour to leave nothing out. The extent to which I can carry the other sciences depends upon the room still left after these are completed. On the present occasion I find myself so much at a loss for room, that I ave thought it right to omit every thing contained in the Philoso phical Transactions, and in the Transactions of the Geological Society, for 1816. These omissions! Propose to supply afterwards, by giving an analysis of the contents of those volumes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
