Experiment III. Atmospheric Air. 

 The apparatus being arranged as before, we kept the pig 

 in the glass A for one hour, and during that time passed 1060 

 cubic inches of atmospheric air through it, which measured 

 1061 : portions of the respired gas had been preserved iri 

 the mercurial bath, and the usual trials made upon the mix- 

 ture, which was found to contain 5 parts of carbonic acid 

 in everj 100, or 53 cubic inches in the whole quantity; the 

 azote was unaltered; 100 : 5 : ; 1060 ; b3.
