XXX. _Remarks on the Opinion of_ Henry Eeles, _Esq; concerning the
Ascent of Vapour, published in the_ Philosoph. Transact. _Vol._ xlix.
_Part_ i. _p._ 124. _By_ Erasmus Darwin, _M.D. Communicated by Mr._
William Watson, _F.R.S._
_To Mr._ William Watson, _F.R.S._
SIR,
THE inclosed papers were designed for the perusal of the Royal Society;
being an endeavour to confute the opinion of Mr. Eeles about the ascent
of vapours, published in the last volume of their Transactions. But the
author, having no electrical friend, whose sagacity he could confide
in, has at length prevailed upon himself to be so free to send them to
Mr. Watson; to whom the world is so much indebted for the advancement
of their knowlege in electricity.
