Properties of Matter,” in the first number of the “ Quarterly Journal of 
Mathematics ” (April 1855); and in short articles in Nichol’s “Cyclopedia,” 
under the titles ‘“Thermomagnetism,” “ Thermoelectricity,” and ‘“ Pyro- 
electricity,” put together and republished with additions in the Philosophical 
Magazine for January 1878, under the title “On the Thermoelastic, Thermo- — 
magnetic, and Pyroelectric Properties of Matter.” = 
It would be beyond the scope of the present article to enter in detail into 
these applications, which were merely indicated in my communication to the 
Royal Society of Edinburgh of three years ago, as a very short and simple 
analytical method of setting forth the whole non-molecular theory of Thermo- 
dynamics.
