Excerpt from A Manual of Chemistry: Containing the Principal Facts of the Science, Arranged in the Order in Which They Are Discussed and Illustrated in the Lectures at the Royal Institution of Great Britain Upon the subject of analysis in general, the student will find inexhaustible information in the writings of Klaproth, and in the Essays of Vauquelin, the former have only been in part translated into the English lan guage, and the latter are scattered through various pe riodical publications, especially the Joumai dc: Mines, and the Annals: dc Chimic. The last thirty volumes of the Philosophical Transactions are also rich in detached essays, by our most eminent chemists, illustrative of the art of analysis. A judicious selection from these sources upon an extended scale would be truly valuable to the practical chemist. And would materially contribute to fa cilitate the progress of our analytical inquiries. For general directions concerning the art of analysis, and for many useful and original hints relative to the manipulations of the laboratory, I have much satisfac tion in referring to Mr. Children's translation of the fourth volume of M. Thenard's Traits dc Ohmic. The reader will observe, that in Chapter V]. I have availed myself of this work, which the student will do well to consult in detail.
