This change takes place with epact 25 only, so that the computation of the lunar years may more closely respond to the solar year.

I asked him to show me the place where he made his computations for Neptune, and he was evidently well pleased to do so.

With these figures you may easily make your own computations as to the cost of material, for unless a woman is "more than common tall," two yards and a half will be more than enough for her habit skirt, which should not rest an inch on the ground on the left side when she stands, and should not be more than a quarter of a yard longer in its longest part.

The other two ships differed much in their computation from each other and from the admiral's pilot.

In point of fact it appears that Shakspeare did owe debts in all directions, and was able to use whatever he found, and the amount of indebtedness may be inferred from Malone's laborious computations in regard to the First, Second, and Third parts of Henry VI., in which, "out of 6,043 lines, 1,771 were written by some author preceding Shakspeare, 2,373 by him, on the foundations laid by his predecessors, and 1,899 were entirely his own."

Q.Will you apply this mode of computation to a marine engine, and first find the diameter of the piston rod? A.The diameter of the piston rod may be found by multiplying the diameter of the cylinder in inches, by the square root of the pressure on the piston in lbs.

The numbers that were destroyed during the Revolution, or, as the French emphatically term it, "Le régne de la Terreur," were never ascertained; but the frightful history of that bloody period would probably justify the computation at half the number of its present population, many having fallen victims to the murders that were termed "Noyades," independent of those who perished in the Vendean war.

The plum-stones are graved with hieroglyphics, and counts are curiously made in a way that often defies computation by white men.
