    VI If this short Treatise should appear too scanty to deserve your Lordship’s notice, per¬ mit me to say, that it comprises some of the condensed results of long continued and diver¬ sified research, and that it is addressed to Philosophers. Be pleased, my Lord, to accept my unfeigned wish, that your Lordship may long continue to enjoy the solace of that self-approval which magnanimous deeds never fail to assure. Your Lordship’s very obedient and obliged Servant, ANTHONY CARLISLE.
