XIX. Let D E F, be a pair of Belloves 40 Inches long, that may bc openedby removing the part F, from E : Let them be exactly fhut every where,but at the Aperture E ; and let a Pipe E G, to or n Inches long, bc Sodvedto the find Aperture E, having its otlver end in a Vestel G, füll of Mcicu;y,and placed near the Middle of the Belloves.
A, is an Axis for the Belloves to Turn upon.
B, A Counterpoile fastned to the lowcr end of the Belloves.
C, a Weight with a Clafp to keep the Belloves uprighr.
Now if we füpposo the Bellcves opened onlv to f, or 4, feanding Uprighr,atid füll of Mercury, it is plain that the find nlercury being 40 Inches High,must Fall, as in the T orrlcellian Experiment, to the Height of about 2." Inches,and confcqucntly the Belloves must open towards F, and ieave a Vaculty there.This Vaculty must be iilled with the Mercury Afcending srau G through the
