nother time, when the Valve had but lit

tle weight hanging at it, being, by I know

not what accident, drawn down beneath its

former place, it was by the impetuous

current of the outward Air ſuddenly im

pell'd up into it again, and kept there.

whil'ſt the reſt of the Experiment was in

whereon the Cylinder of the Atmoſphere

a half in Diameter, yet the weight kept

what was caſt into it, being ſent to be

common Pounds, conſiſting of ſixteen

Ounces apiece: So that we doubted not

but that, had the Experiment been made

with favorable Circumſtances, the Air

endeavoring to preſs in at the Orifice of

the Stop-cock, would have kept a very

much greater weight from falling out of

it; I ſay the Air, becauſe we found, by
