been in use $50 years. Torricelli, who
died at the early age of 20 years, was
too bustiy engaged in mathematical
studies to publish an account of his dis
covery, but on Jun II. 1644, he wrote a
description of it to his friend Ricci This

mentioned Journal; Some o Of the para sa-
necially those in hich Torricelli states
that it was merely a question of pro
duelng a vacuum, but of making an m
strument which would indicate the
changes of the atmosphere. The first con-
tinuous barornetrical observations appear
to nave been made in France: In Eng
land they were first taken by Robert

picturing a little group Of .Colonials re-
turning from the victory of Bennington,
several of them wounded. made his
father pass for the man with his arm
in a sling: counted a boy friend upon
the old horse. and used his own figure
for that of the youth leading the horse,
and then invested it all with the heroic
atmosphere Of the time in which he felt
so great an interest.

when his talents had more fully .matured.
made him available and led to his selec-
