the care and skill which none but those practised in such matters 
‘are competent to exercise. In the mean time, the following table 
_may be regarded as sufficiently near to truth to present a plain 
‘view of the objects for which it was drawn up; and any one 
-., who is so disposed may test its general correctness by particular 
, examples.
