Excerpt from A Collection of Meteorological Tables: With Other Tables Useful in Practical Meteorology In the selection of the matter, I have been guided by the idea that the tables which I sought for my own use might also be those most likely to be wanted by others. But I wish the following to be considered as a first collection, containing only the tables most appropriate to the present purpose. They are, therefore, arranged in different and independent series, with distinct paging, but constituting together a frame-work into which any tables may be readily inserted when wanted, either to make the collec tion more complete, or to present a choice of tables calculated from some what different elements, or adapted to various methods of calculation. The measurement of heights by means of the barometer being inti mately connected with Meteorology, it was thought not inappropriate to admit into this collection Hypsometrical Tables, destined to render this kind of calculations more easy and more rapid, and thus to increase the taste for a method so useful in physical geography. I have preferred the tables of Delcros, as uniting in the greatest degree simplicity and accuracy. Those of Gauss, Bessel, and Baily may be given afterwards.
