To put a Inc upon the ground which in

difference We may apply 10 rctracing

Thus the declination j. the same Tor a

at n place 40 miles y. L. of Paris 10
Twenty years hence the decliuation at

BY little care. and study, land survey

the above matter; and by faithfully APP

OF the magnetic needle they will save
themselves and others great deal Of
trouble and expense for the future.
