The following Notes ought to have appeared in p. 699 and 706. 



268 in p. 85. " Why motion of heated air should, when uniformly heated with the body, give 

 relief, is not so plain." p. 85. Evaporation goes on more rapidly when the air is in brisk motion 

 than is the case when it is still ; and evaporation produces cold : hence, although a still, and a brisk 

 air may be of the same temperature, yet they produce a very different effect, as indicated by the 

 sensations ; a brisk motion causing rapid evaporation, and occasioning a proportionably greater 

 degree of cold on the surface, than is the case when evaporation goes on slowly in a still atmo- 

 sphere 1 . N. 



859 in p. 402. The eggs of insects, and seeds of weeds, in soil which is to be used for potting 

 plants, are effectually destroyed by kiln-drying; which is more especially necessary when the sur- 

 face of pasture or meadow land is used. Turf from a loamy soil, kiln-dried, chopped up and mixed 

 with thoroughly rotted dung, with the addition of a few stones, smaller or larger according to the 

 size of the pots to be used, will grow well almost every kind of plant, except some of the more 

 delicate of the hair-rooted kinds R.
