It is too well known that artificers in various 

 trades are almoft necefTarily fubje6t to dangerous 

 and fometimes lingering difeafes, which frequently 

 Ihorten the period of their lives. Miners, hewer$ 

 of free-ftone, -vyorkers of metals, painters, and 

 yarious others, are notorious inftances of this truth, 

 ]But, as our author obferves, they are not the 

 only fufferers in this way, inafmuch as a too clofe 

 application to any bufinefs or profeflion, will ever 

 be attended with infalutary effedls. In this con-

 tended that author's catalogue, and availed him- 

 felf of fubfequent obfervations from various au- 

 thors, and interfperfed feveral of his own. In 

 brief, by confining his view, through the feveral 

 employments of mankind, to the immediate ope- 

 ration of caufes, and their effeds, he has rendered 

 this trad at the fame time agreeable, inftrudive, 

 and intereiling.
