Extract

The intention of the author in this communication is to recommend the daily determination of the weight, by direct means, of some considerable bulk of atmospheric air. This subject has become of interest to medical observers, owing to the belief which has arisen, on hardly sufficient grounds, that during the prevalence of epidemics the air is of greater weight than usual.
