Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Lectures on Select Subjects in Mechanics, Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, Optics, and Astronomy Let the pipe A C be elevated to 10 degrees upon the quadrant, and filled with water; then part of the water that is in it will rise in the pipe A B, and if it be kept full of water, it will raise the water in the pipe A B from A to i; that is, to a level i 10 with the mouth of the pipe at 10: and the upright line a 10 equal to A i, will be the sine of 10 degrees' elevation which, being measured upon the scale S, will be about of such parts as the pipe contains 100 in length and therefore: the force or pressure of the water at A in the pipe A 10, will be to the force or pressure at A in the pipe A B, as to 100.
