From thefe data Mr. Webb computes the diftancc of the peak (P) 

 from the ftations A, C and P* at the numbers undermentioned : viz. 

 From the ftation A, by the triangle A P B, 89,6, and by the triangle 

 A P D, 89,1 ; mean of both computations 89,35 miles or 471758 feet. 

 From the ftation D,by thelaft triangle, 135,9, and by C P D, 136,8 ! mean 

 of both, 136,35 miles, or 719928 feet. From C,by the laft of thefe trian- 

 gles, 103.4, and by C PB, 102,3 ; mean of both 102,85 miles, or 543048 

 feet. He remarks that feveral other bearings of the firrie peak were 

 taken from different (Utions; and that, by laying off the rhumb-lines of
