DES POIDS, DES MONNOIES, &C. DE LA FRANCE ET LES PAYS BAS

: Jt appears from the Author's arrangement of the subject, that he proposed to have given a statistic account of the several countries in the fol. sowing order:

La Grande Bretagne,

La France et les Pays Bas,

L’ Allemagne, la Suisse et le Nord,

L'Italie et l'Espagne,

L'Orient, les Indes, &c. &c:

The first article, vis. Great Britain, Mr. Gibbon seems to have postponed, and only a few notes respecting: it have been found among his papers. Ine deed the remainder of this division appears incomplete ; and the accounts of the respective countries seem to have been kept open for the insertion of any information or observations that might occur.
