This Table was calculated at a temperature between
46° and 55°; but Mr Kirwan has reduced part of it
to the temperature of 62°, in order to compare it with
the specific gravities of sea water taken at that tempe
rature, or at least reduced to it. The specific gravi
ties, thus altered by Kirwan, are as follows:
