Dissertation sur la cause de I'augmentation de poids que certaines 

 matieres acquierent dans leur calcination. Qui a remporte le prix 

 au jugement de I'Academie Royale des Belles Lettres, Sciences 

 et Arts de Bordeaux. A la Have, 1748. pp. 98, i6mo. 



In this interesting booklet the author, a Jesuit Professor of Mathematics at 

 the College in Lyons, traces the history of experimentation on the 

 increase in weight of metals by calcination, and shows that (l) they lose 

 in sp. gr.; (2) the increase in weight cannot be caused by the addition 

 of corpuscles of fire ; (3) the weight of the air does not contribute to 

 the increase in weight of calcined bodies [!] ; and (4) finds the real cause 

 of the phenomenon in the foreign bodies contained in the air. The 

 author draws his conclusions from the labors of others, with the litera- 

 ture of which he is quite familiar.
