[13] Some prominent examples of this brevity of treatment are in E. HOPPE, _Geschichte der Elektrizitaet_ (Leipzig, 1884); O. MAHR, _Geschichtliche Einzeldarstellungen aus der Elektrotechnik_ (Berlin, 1941); R. S. WHIPPLE, "The Evolution of the Galvonometer," _Journal of Scientific Instruments_ (1934), vol. 7, pp. 37-43; WILLIAM STURGEON, _Scientific Researches_ (Bury, 1850); A. W. HUMPHREYS, "The Development of the Conception and Measurement of Electric Current," _Annals of Science_ (1937), vol. 2, pp. 164-178. [14] M.

SEEBECK, "Ueber den Magnetismus der Galvanischen Kette," _Abhandlungen der Koenigliche Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Berlin_ (1820-1821), pp. 289-346. The phrase "Schweigger's multiplier" is used on page 319. The many experiments described in this paper added little or nothing to contemporary appreciation of the multiplier as an instrument. [16] J. S. C. SCHWEIGGER, _Journal fuer Chemie und Physik_ (1821), vol. 31, pp. 1-18, 35-42. Pages 1-6 are the paper presented in Halle on September 16, 1820; pages 7-18 are the paper presented in Halle on November 4, 1820, and pages 35-42 are "a few additional words." The preface to the whole volume is dated January 1, 1821. A somewhat earlier public announcement referring to Schweigger's discovery appeared in the _Allgemeine Literatur-Zeitung_ (November 1820), no. 296, cols. 622-624, but this was lacking in detail and seems not to have been noticed by any scientists. [17] P. ERMAN, _Umrisse zu den physischen Verhaeltnissen des von Herrn Prof. Oersted entdeckten elektro-chemischen Magnetismus_ (Berlin, 1821). Hoppe (footnote 13) states that Erman's book was published in May; however, it is referred to in a letter dated April 3, 1821, by RASCHIG, _Annalen der Physik_ (1821), vol. 67, pp. 427-436.

The footnote accompanies the article by Raschig mentioned in footnote 17. [20] H. C. OERSTED, "Sur le Multiplier electro-magnetique de M.
