Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of Henry Mackenzie, Esq., Vol. 7 of 8
Nor has France been less productive than her sister-kingdom. Besides the bal loon, of which she may certainly claim the practical application, if Britain shall dispute the discovery of the principle, there are many other inventions, equally wonderful, though less brilliant, which her philosophers have atchieved; and some of those which his British Nlajesty has sanctioned with his royal patent, are only naturalised subjects, which had their birth in the territories of the Most Christian King.
