Part I contained information on the construction and use of sextant and octants and was not reissued. Usually known by the French version of his name J. H. de Magellan 1723-1790 descended from the explorer Ferdinand Magellan was a Portuguese scientist whose work focused primarily on scientific instruments. He is credited with introducing English scientific instruments and the work of Joseph Priestley to the scientific community in France. After travels throughout Europe he settled in England in 1764 to pursue his scientific studies. He was elected a member of the Royal Society 1774 and was also a member of the Imperial Academy of Science in St. Petersburg and of the Royal Academy of Madrid. As an instrument maker and designer supplying the governments of Europe he proposed changes and improvements to astronomical and nautical observation instruments such as the quarters of a circle English sextants and octants in the reflection circle in the sextant and in the pendulum clock. As far as meteorological instruments are concerned he put forward improvements in barometers thermometers and presented a meteorographer. As regards physical instruments worthy of mention are his improvements to Atwoods machines and to the precision scale very important for the advances of chemistry. In Traite V in our book he deals with astronomic clocks and watches marine compasses protection against lightning and the theodolite. The final Traite is actually an extract from a letter from Magellan to a doctor friend in Paris describing the construction and use of a new inhaler or respirateur invented by a fellow member of the Royal Society the physician John Mudge and believed to cure infallibly catarrhal coughs.
