408 Dr. Wanine on the 

‘Many more things concerning the f{ummation of feries, which _ 
‘depend on fluxional, &c. equations, might be added;. but i 
fhall conclude this paper with congratulating myfelf, that fome 
algebraical inventions publifhed by me have been fince 
thought not unworthy of being publifhed by fome of the 
ee mathematicians of this or any other age. | 
1ft, In the year 1757, I fent to the Royal Society the firft 
edition of my Meditationes Algebraicze: they were printed and 
publithed in the years 1760 and 1762, with Properties of Curve 
Lines, under the title of Mifcellanea Analytica, and a copy 
of them fent to Mr. EuLer in the beginning of the year 1763, 
in which was contained a refolution of algebraical equations, 
not inferior, on account of its generality and facility, to any 
yet publithed (viz. y=a W/p+d V/p te Vp +../p). This 
refolution was publifhed by Mr. Ever in the Peterfburg A&ts 
for the year 1764. Whether Mr. Ev_er ever received my 
book, I cannot pretend to fay ; nor is it material: for the fact 
is, that it was publifhed by me in the year 1760 and 1762, 
and firft by Mr. EvLer in the year 1764. Mr. DELA GRANGE 
and Mr. Bezout have afcribed this refolution to Mr. EuLer, as 
firft publifhed in the year 1764, not having feen (I fuppofe) 
my Mifcell. Analyt. .Mr. Brzovr found from it fome new 
equations, of which the refolution is known, and applied it to 
the reduction of equations: more new equations aré given, 
and the refolution rendered more eafy by me in the Philofophi- 
cal Tranfations. 2d, In the above-mentioned Mifcell. Ana- 
lyt. an equation is transformed into another, of which the 
roots are the fquares of the differences of the roots of the 
given equation; and it is aflerted in that book, that if the 
coeefficients
