Joseph Priestley provides Sir Charles Blagden, the Secretary of the Royal Society, with a list of errors in his paper for the Transactions and asks him to correct the "important" ones before it is printed. Priestley also reports that he is "busy in my experiments, and I never remember that a greater number of new facts occurred to me in the same space of time." The "present experiments" include "the production of phlogisticated air from Spirit of Niter and phlogiston." Transcript included.
