(N.) The Residue of the Water, which remain'd in the _Still_ after that in M, was distill'd off. It was very turbid, and as high-colour'd (reddish) as ordinary Beer. The _Mint_ weigh'd, when put in, 81 Gr. when taken out, 175 Gr. Water expended, 4344 Gr. This Plant was very lively; and had sent out six collateral Branches, and several Roots. (O.) _Hyde-Park Conduit-water_, in which was dissolved a Drachm of Nitre. The Mint set in this suddenly began to wither and decay; and died in a few Days: As likewise did two more Sprigs, that were set in it, successively. In another Glass I dissolv'd an Ounce of good Garden-mould, and a Drachm of Nitre, and in a third, half an Ounce of Wood ashes, and a Drachm of Nitre; but the Plants in these succeeded no better than in the former. In other Glasses I dissolved several other sorts of Earths, Clays, Marles, and variety of Manures, _&c._ I set Mint in distill'd Mint-water; and other Experiments I made, of several kinds, in order to get Light and Information, what hastened or retarded, promoted or impeded Vegetation; but these do not belong to the Head I am now upon. (P.) _Hyde-Park Conduit-water._ In this I fix'd a Glass-Tube about ten Inches long, the Bore about one sixth of an Inch in Diameter, fill'd with very fine and white Sand, which I kept from falling down out of the Tube into the Vial, by tying a thin piece of Silk over that end of the Tube that was downwards. Upon Immersion of the lower end of it into the Water, this by little and little ascended quite to the upper Orifice of the Tube. And yet, in all the fifty six Days which it stood thus, a very inconsiderable Quantity of Water had gone off, _viz._ scarce twenty Grains; though the Sand continued moist up to the top till the very last. The Water had imparted a green Tincture to the Sand, quite to the very top of the Tube. And, in the Vial, it had precipitated a greenish Sediment, mix'd with black. To the bottom and sides of the Tube, as far as 'twas immers'd in the Water, adher'd pretty much of the green Substance describ'd above. Other like Tubes I fill'd with Cotton, Lint, Pith of Elder, and several other porous Vegetable Substances; setting some of them in clear Water; others in Water tinged with Saffron, Cochinele, _&c._ And several other Trials were made, in order to give a mechanical Representation of the motion and distribution of the Juices in Plants; and of some other _Phænomena_ observable in Vegetation, which I shall not give the Particulars of here, as being not of use to my present design. (Q, R, S, _&c._) Several Plants set in Vials, ordered in like manner as those above, in _October_, and the following colder Months. These throve not near so much; nor did the Water ascend in nigh the quantity it did in the better Seasons, in which the before recited Trials were made. _Some Reflections upon the foregoing Experiments._
