"^1 t«i«i>}<' Cf . •.A'fAu •r .^ THE dilcovery of a paiTage to the Eaft Indies and China round the Cape of Good Hope was attended with fuch important advantages to the Portuguele, who claimed, and for a long time exercifed, an exclufive right to that navigation, as to excite a ftrong defire in other maritime countries of Europe of opening to them- felves a communication with thofe countries by fome other means. The difcovery of the American continent, which alfb owed its rife to the fame de- fire of poflefling the riches of the Eaft, appeared at firft to be an unfurmountable barrier to thofe attempts, while the limits of that continent remained unknown. Several emi- nent Philofophers and Navigators flattered themfelves that pafl'ages might be found cither round its northern or fouthern extremity, or by the North of Europe and Afia ; we find therefore that different expeditions were undertaken by the Engllfh, Spaniards, and Dutch, by thofe different ways. The firft, for the difcovery of a North Weft Paffage, was made in 1497, by John Cabot, a native of Venice, in a (hip belonging to Henry "VII. fitted out at Briftol. After him, by the Captains Forbifher, Davis, Weymouth, Hudlbn, Button, Gibbons, Bylot, Fox, James, Gillam, Middleton, More, Smith, and others. The danger and difliccilty attending thofe that went I^QUgh tfce Strei^ts of Magellan, or Cape Horn, to the South, and by Way-gats ■■id r«rbi(her*8 Streights, to the North, confined the profpe£t of any advantageous paf- fage into the Pacific Ocean to the large opening made by Hudfon's Bay; but the voyages of James and Fox in the middle of the laft century, and of MidJleton and Ellis in this, have given little hope of any fuch paflage to be found leading out of that bay. During the endeavours of thefe later navigators, the Ruffians, in 1648, DifhnefF, AnkudenofF, and AlexeefF failed out of the River Kolyma ; in the years 1734, 17-^5, 1736, 1737* and 1738, the Lieutenants MoroniefF, ProntfhiflfhetF, Mal- gyin, Shuakoff, OfFzin, KofkelefF, and others, made unfuccefsful attempts from Arch- angel, and the rivers of Siberia; as did ShalarofF iu the years i76i(, 1762, and 1764, 31481 IV INTRODUCTION. 1764 *, made repeated trials for a navigable pafliige from Archangel, by the North of Siberia, into the Pacific Ocean, and with as little luccefs. All further attempts for a fhorter pafllige to the Eaft were now dropt ; for as fuf- ficient had been done to fatisfy thofe whofe objedl had b^eii commerce, fuch enter- prizes as took their rife merely from a ftrong delire of gain were at an end ; but a new fpirit of difcovery has of late years prevailed, which, owing its rife to other motives, was conducted upon other principles, fuch as were giounded upon a defire to encreafo and improve fcience by extending our Knowledge of the Globe. It is unneceflary for me to fay any thing concerning the two former Voyages per- formed by Captr.in Cooke, as they have been publiHied by authority, and I imagine have given a full and entire fatisfadion with refpe£t 10 th? South Seas, and make our knowledge of the globe in that quarter as complete as one could wifh. To makS:*iriir all parts equally perfect, there wanted only a Voyage to explore the Northern Pacific Ocean ; an opportunity naturally offered itfelf, when Omai, a native brought hither from the Society Iflands, was to be carried home again ; and upon Captain Cooke of- fering his fervices the plan of the voyage was enlarged, and made to correfpond with his great abilities : he was to endeavour, after landing Omai, to find out the fo much fought for pafl'age between the Northern Pacific and Atlantic Ocean, either by the North Eaft or North Weft; which would naturally lead him to explore the North Weft coaft of America, and North Eaft of Afia, hitherto fo very imperfedly known, the diftance between America and Afia, as alfo the feas between them, and whether, in that part of the world, there was any approaching the North Pole. It is not my bufinefs to fay how hv Captain Cooke has fucceeded in fatisfying our rational enquiries, in regard to thefe capital objeds, for the account of thefe things is preparing for the Pul)iic ; I have only to obferve, that it was in the courfe of that Voyage the following Obfervations were made. . ^ When His Majefty's pleafure was made known that a Voyage for the above puiw pofes ftiould be undertaken, under the command of Captain Cooke, the Board of Loii« gltude, purfuing the fame conduct as in the former Voyages, refolved upon fending proper perfons on board the two Ships to make Aftronomical and Philofophical Ob- fervations. Captain Cooke, in conjundlon with Mr. King, one of his Lieutenants, undertook to comply with their inftrudions, on board the Refolution, the ihip Captain Cooke f See Cox's Account of the Ruffian Difcoverles. commanded ; INTRODUCT O N. commancled ; and 1 ciifriged to do the fame on board the Difcovery, commanded by- Captain Gierke : in the cr.urfe of the Voyage, when, from the lofs of thefe commanders, Mr. King took the command of the Dlfcovcry, 1 removed on hoard the Refolution, commanded by Captain Gore. We were furniflicd with a proper Apparatus of Inftuiments of the beft kind, and made by the beft Artifts.

Cooke had fet up his Tent Obiervatory near the Fort, a place very much cxpofed to the S. E. wind that blows very ftrong at times, and brings fuch clouds of land along with it as to render the inftruments ufelefs in a fttw minutes. Capt. Cooke advifed me to fet up my Tent Obfervatory near his, and not go to the ufual place, which I confented to, for the convenience of comparing the Watches and Clocks with each other.— He alfo told me that he would go to fea in feven or eight days at moft. Went on fliore with the Obfervatory and inftruments, and fet up my Obfervatory near that of Captain Cooke. — Set up my Aftronomical Clock, and let it a going with the fame length of pendulum as when going at Greenwich.

Over one of thcfe points the center of the objedt glafs of the tele- fcope was placed (by allowing for its thicknefs). Over the other point, on the pile, the furface of a board was placed at the fame height with the center of the Telefcope, at right angles to the line joining them. On this board was paftcd a Iheet of paper, with ftrong black lines drawn on it, exadtly five inches afunder. By feparating the glaflles until thefe lines covered each other, I found a mean of 50 meafurcs to be 2,2 inches -\- 1^ divifions of the Nonius ; thefe meafures agreed within one divifion of the Nonius or 4 of a fecond. t s.

Mr, King remarks, that a mean of the above fix refults is y^\6^ the daily rate of the Watch lofing per day on mean time : but as the rates feem to increale gradually, and the Lunar Obfer- vations made for fome time after require it to be greater than the above mean, and agree very well with fuppofing it as at the laft daysi the true rate is therefore afllimcd at g^\6o lofing on mean time, to be ufed.

From the firft to the fourth the weather was hazy and dull j the fourth in the morning the weather was fine and free from clouds ; I got my telefcope ready, and computed the part of the Sun's limb where the eclipfe would begin, and the time by the clock nearly. At 1 1 o'clock the fky became overcaft with thick clouds, which continued fo until half pad twelve, or noon, when the clouds began to clear away; at 3'' 52' 25'' per clock, or i** 11' 15''' apparent time, I faw the Sun through thin clouds with the finder of the telefcope, and could perceive a fmall impreflion of black on its limb; by noting its increafe, T fuppofe the ecliple began about 2' or 2'j before I faw it. It was a confiderable time before the clouds cleared away fo as to enable me to make ufe of the micrometer. Meafures with the Micrometer.

About 10 minutes before the end of the eclipfe the Sun became free from clouds, and very clear. I obferved the end at 6'' 45' 3'' per Clock, or 4'' 5' 32'', 6 apparent time. Mr. Bligh, the Mailer, obferved the end at 6'' 45' per Clock, or 4'' 5' 29'% 6 apparent time. Mr. Bligh ufed a 2 feet Gregorian Tclefcope made by Bird, magnifying power 90 times. My Tclefcope was an Achromatic one made by DoUond of 46 inches focus, magnifying power 1 50 times, 'ihe time of the end feemed certain to 3 or 4 feconds.

Do. xN. Do. S. DIREC I'lONS for balancing the Mag m e t i c N e e d l f, By the Honourable HENRY CAVENDIS H, F.R.S. THE method of balancing the needle after it is magnetical, depends on the following circumftances, namely, Firfl:, That cncreaHng the diftance of the uppermofl fide fcrew from the center e norcafcs the dip, and that encreafing the diftance of the uppermolt end ilrcw has the contrary c(\''i:i:t. Secondly, That the needles ought to be balanced in luch a manner that the dip fliould be as great with one fide fcrew uppermoft as the other, and alfo the one end fcrew ujipermolt as the other. Thirdly, That the fide fcre;v which is uppermoft when the face is turned to the weft, is lowcft when it is turned to the eaft. If the needle is laid horizontal with the crofs uppermoft, and the marked end pointing; to the north, I call that fide fr;cw which points towards the weft Is'° 2. and that which points to the eaft o •, I alio call that end fcrew, which is toward th*^ .r.arketi end of the nt-cdk', the fcrew N° 3. and the oppofite fcrew N" 1.; this being premifed, the method will appcr Litll by an example. N. B. The fcrews or buttons are marked one dot ( . ) two dots ( . . ) tluee dots (...) and a pointer to each to tell the number of the revolutions. Suppofe that with the marked end of th needle to the north, and the face ) ' ii ( aiicl conrequendy wi,l, No .. [ JWJ'ol 7 ■ ^^ | ,„^ ^.^ I then chanr^' the poles, and find that with the marked end to the foiith or uppern.olh and tlie face ^ ^^^jf ^ and confequently with N° 2. ^ Kr"^^ ^IH] the dip. By comparing the mean of the firft and third obfcrvations with the mean of the fecond aru! fourth, it appear? that the dip is i *' 1 o' lefs when N° 2. is uppermoft, than when it is low. (1, or the dip is 35' too finall whea N^ 2. is uppermoft. I 11 ^'M i • i--i '1 • :' '. T » 226 DIPS OF TH E MAGNETIC NEEDLE In like manner by comparing the mean of the lirfl: and fecond with the mean of the third and , fourth, it appears that the dip is 1° 20' too great with the fcrew N*" 3. uppermoft. In order to find how much the fcrews fhould be altered, I find how mudi the dip is altered by moving one of the fide fcrews a number of revolutions, and alfo how much it is altered by moving one of the end fcrews ; for example, I move N° 2. three revolutions further from the center, the face flill continuing weft, and find the dip 72°, fo that as the dip before that alte- ration was 73° 40', altering N° 2. three revolutions, alters the dip ico'. I then reftore that fcrew to its former pofition, and move the fcrew N* 3. feven revolutions further from the center, and find the dip 72° 10'. So that altering the fcrew N*" 3. feven revolutions alters the dip 90'. I then reftore that fcrew alfo to its firft pofition, it is indifferent which of the two fcrews N' 2 or o, or of the two fcrews N° 3. or N** I. you move, but it is beft moving them in fuch manner as to make the dip approach nearer to the true dip, rather than the contrary way ; hence, as it was found that the dip was 35' too fmall when N° 2. was uppermoft, it follows that N° 2. muft be moved 3 x -jU^ or r -'_ of a revolution further from the center -, and for the like reafon the fcrew N" 3. muft be moved 7x or— 6 ^ revolutions further from the center.— So far Mr. Cavendifh. .H o DO The Needle may be readily balanced as follows: • ' TAKE all the magnetifm oiu of it, or fo far that it may not affeft a fine fewing needle, which may be done by a few trials. Place two of the crofs wires, which carry the adjufting balls, in the diredlion of the needle, and the other two will be at right angles thereto ; place the needle in an horizontal pofition, and balance it there by means of t'.»e two balls on the wires that are in the fame direftlon with it ; place the needle in a vertical pofition, and adjuft it there by means of the balls on the wires that are at right angles to it — the needle being well balanced in thefe two pofitions, will reft in any other — give it magnetifm, and it will be fit for ufe, W. BAYLY. The Method of corrccling the obferved Dip when the Poles are not changed. By the Hon, HENRY CAVENDISH, F.R.S. W H E N the poles are changed, and the dip obferved with each face to the eaft, the mean of all four obfervations is the true dip. Tlie mean of the two obfervations with the marked end of the needle pointing to the north, I cal!. the mean dip with the mark to the north. I imagine now that the txcefs or defcift of the mean dip with the mark to the north, above that With the other end to the north, will be nearly in proportion to the co-fine of the dip. Suppofe therefore that you find on reverfing the poles at any time, that the mean dip with the mark to the north exceeds that with the other end to the north by 40', the true dip being 72° ; according to this expt.itnent it fiiould fecm that the mean dip with the mark to the north exceeds that with the other end to the north by 130', multiplied by the co-fine of the dip ; for 40' equals 130' into the co-fine of 72^ Suppofe alfo, that the next time you change the poles, you find that the excels of the mean dip with the mark to the north above that with the end unmarked to the north is z" 1 9', the true dip being 5". By this obfervation the mean dip with the marked end to the north exceeds that with the unmarked by 150' x the co-fine of the dip. By the mean of botli oblcrvations it is 140' into the co-fine of the dip. Therefore i.i all the obfervations made between thefe two times I would corredl the mean dip according to this fuppofition •, for example, if at any place you find the mean dip with the mark to the 'K ON BOARD THE RESOLUTION. 827 north to be 6oo, the true dip will be 6oo^^l^ x cof. 60°, or 590 2/ ; or if you find the mean | dip with the unmarked end to the notiii to be 600, the true dip will be 6- '+JJL"'xcof. 6o* or 6o» 35^ '• N.B. If you Ihould have omitted to correft the mean dips in this manner while vou are at lea, It may be done when you come home. h \ I ;,i[ 1 ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATIONS FOR DETERMINING The latitude of the SHIP and her LONGITUDE, BY A WATCH, N» 2.
