still more and more an olijeft of rational

be always open for the infpe&ion of those
whovifithis Museum, in which book it is
proposed to insert all such discoveries, in
ventions, improvements, fcbcnie-, obfe'r-

any of his visitors, or correfponderts,may
from time totime communicate. ]
Such as may chufe to conceal their names

will insert their names, with the number or
signature of ther refpeflivr copimunica-

The advantages ot ftich a public regiflcr

many uleful hints, which might otherwise
have died with their authors. It may fe.
cure to inventors their juftclaims, andpie
vent others from taking the honor or profit
of a dtfeovery to which they are not en-
