Having lately invented an Azimuth-Compass, as I was preparing it for observing the Magnetic Variation, I took occasion, in some leisure hours, to try divers Magnetick Experiments for my diversion; and by that means happened upon this odd Phænomenon.

H E Exiftence of a Fluid in the Nerves (commonly called the Animal ) has been doubted of by many ; and notwithftanding Experiments made by Ligatures upon the , continues to be controverted by fome. This induced me to make the following Experiments, which, I hope, may help to fet that Dodrine, which is of fo much Confequence in the Animal QEconomy, and Pra&ice of Phyfick, in a clearer Light than I think it has hitherto appeared in.

Silk, which is the Spittle of a Worm, hath its good or bad Quality from the Nourishment the Worm receives either from a good or bad Leaf; Therefore the chief Dependance is on a happy Spring, proving both sweet and pleasant; exempt from too much Rain, which commonly rot the Leaves; from Southerly Winds, which burst the Worms; and from strong Northerly Winds, whose piercing cold spoils the Leaf, giving it an ill Quality.

The various Relations not only of curious and credible Authors, who have given us Accounts of Virginia, Carolina, and the neighbouring Countries, but also the Testimonies of several Men of Integrity by word of Mouth, concerning what they call Charms, Inchantments or Fascinations by Snakes, have often seemed to me greatly surprizing, without my being able to satisfy myself of the true cause of such Appearances.

According to the resolution expressed in the account of the Trigonometrical Survey, printed in the Philosophical Transactions for the year 1795, we now communicate to the public, through the same channel, a farther relation of its progress. On referring to the above paper, it will be found that, for the prosecution of this undertaking, a design was formed of proceeding to the westward, with a series of triangles, for the survey of the coast. This intention has been carried into effect; and as the small theodolite, or circular instrument, announced in our former communication as then in the hands of Mr. Ramsden, was finished early in the summer of 1795, we are enabled to give a series of triangles, extending, in conjunction with those before given, from the Isle of Thanet, in Kent, to the Land's End.
