1 HE Philosophical Magazine and the Annals of 

 Philosophy are journals which have long- been known 

 to the scientific world, not only as containing- original 

 matter of the greatest importance, but also as exhibiting 

 general views of the progress of science, and the im- 

 provements which have been successively effected in its 

 various departments. The former work was commenced 

 at that period when the discoveries of Lavoisier, Caven- 

 dish, Priestley, and their associates, had established the 

 " New School of Chemistry," and was the second phi- 

 losophical journal that appeared in this country, having 

 been preceded only by Mr. Nicholson's Quarto Journal 

 of Natural Philosophy. In the Philosophical Magazine 

 have been recorded all the great discoveries made since 

 the aera of its commencement, selected from various 

 works, as well foreign as domestic : and the orio-inal 

 communications it contains have for their authors many 

 of the most distinguished cultivators of modern science.
