SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS. 288 THE CONSTANTS OF NATURE. SPECIFIC GRAVITIES, BOILING POINTS, AND MELTING POINTS. FIEST SUPPLEMENT TO PART I. COMPILED BY FRANK WIGGLESWORTH CLARKE, S. B. PROFESSOR OF CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI. WASHINGTON, D. C: PUBLISHED BY THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION. APRIL: 1S7 6. ADVERTISEMENT. The following is a first supplement to Part I. of a general work on the "Constants of Nature," gratuitously prepared for the Smithsonian Institu- tion by Professor F. W. Clarke, and published at the expense of its fund. Part I., on Specific Gravities, Boiling Points and Melting Points, was published in 1873, since which time the new determinations have been made and collected which form this supplement.

The following supplement to Part I of the Constants of Nature, eon- tains, in addition to determinations published during the past two years, some materials which were overlooked in compiling the original work. In it data are given for nearly seven hundred substances, of which at least four hundred are new since the publication of Part I. Of course the compiler is anxious that his work should be as thorough as possible, and hence he will be greatly obliged to any person calling his attention to errors or omissions. He would also request investigators having unpublished determinations on hand to favor him with copies of them for use in subsequent supplements or editions. Such material is always wortti saving, even when it is not of sufficient value to warrant publishing lnT itself. Few explanations are needed in this supplement. The arrangement and abbreviations are the same which were originally used, with the excep- tion of a very few new titles for periodicals. These are abbreviated as follows : B. D. C. G. "Berichte der Deutschen Chemischen Gesellschaft." B. II. A. S. F. "Bulletin Hebdomadaire de l'Association Scientillque de France." C. C. or C. Cent. "Chemisches Centralblatt." All references to this periodical apply only to the third or current series. Fortsch. d. Phys. " Fortschritte der Physik." F. W. C. Cincinnati, March 9, 1876.
