[115] This Table of neutral Salts is nearly the same as one I
have seen, which was said to be a Copy of that given yearly
by Dr. _Cullen_, Professor of Chymistry in the University of
_Edinburgh_, to his Pupils; and as that published by Dr.
_Vogel_, in his _Institutiones Chymiæ_, sect. 629. These
neutral Salts are likewise taken Notice of by _Macquer_, in
his _Elemens de Chymie_, and other late chymical Authors.

AN ESSAY ON THE MEANS of Preserving the Health of SOLDIERS on SERVICE.
AND Conducting MILITARY HOSPITALS.
OF THE Means of Preserving the Health of Soldiers on Service.
The Life of _British_ Soldiers on Service, in Time of War, is so very
different from what they lead in Time of Peace, as to subject them to
many Inconveniences and Diseases.
In Time of Peace, Soldiers are quartered either in Towns or Garrisons,
where they are under the Eye of their Officers, who take Care that
they keep themselves clean, and provided with Necessaries; they lie
either in private Houses or in Barracks, where they have a good Bed,
regular Meals of wholesome Provisions, and enjoy most of the other
Necessaries of Life in common with the lower Class of People, their
Duty is easy, they mount Guard but seldom, and in other Nights enjoy
an undisturbed Rest.
