As there were somany figures to be mastered, the paper could hardly be discussed at thepresent time with any advantage ; but if gentlemen had any observationsto make he would be very glad to hear them. Mr. A. L. Steavenson stated that he thought it would be in the recol-lection of many of the members that in the third volume of the Trans-actions of the Institute there was a paper which was read by Mr. P. , and which spoke of pressures due to gas in coal even higher thanthose now given, and in order still further to illustrate the subject hehoped the experiments would be published with such information as to thedepth of the superposed strata as would enable members to ascertain if thepressure of the gas in the coal bore any ratio to the pressure due from anyd
