Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Henry Mackenzie, Esq., Vol. 7 of 8 But in Britain, we have a compendious way of calculating the number of inventions. If I am not misinformed, there have passed the offices within these twenty years no fewer than 667 patents; so that this island alone has in that very inconsiderable space added 667 discoveries to the stock of knowledge which our fathers possessed. Nor has France been less productive than her sister-kingdom. Besides the balloon, 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 achieved; and some of those which his British Majesty has sanctioned with his royal patent, are only naturalised subjects, which had their birth in the territories of the Most Christian King.
