Review of the researches of the different Continental Philosophers, after the discovery of the Voltaic pile. IN the month of October, 1801, M. Volt A addressed a letter to the celebrated Professor Van Marum, to request of him to make, in concert with Professor Pfaff, of Kiel, several experiments on a large scale, with the well known apparatus belonging to the Teylerian Museum at Harlaern, on the electricity of the metallic pile. The following is a faithful analysis of the joint labours of these two naturalists, who appear to have confirmed the doctrine of Volta, relative to the identity of the galvanic and electric fluids. Their researches are deserving of a particular notice, insomuch as the experiments on which they are founded, were made with the utmost care, and the most scrupulous attention. Their results must consequently tend to throw a great light on the theory of galvanism. Notwithstanding M. Van Marum was nearly convinced, both by what he had seen, a few months before, of the effects of a large column, and by the experiments communicated to him by Professor Volta, that the action of the pile is purely electrical, still the theory of these effects, which he had himself adopted, differed in several points from that of the latter naturalist. Being desirous that the apparatus under his charge should be made to contribute, as much as possible, to the progress of the sciences, he solicited M. Pfapf to examine, with him, the two theories, jn each of their different relations, by the means of the above apparatus, and by experiments made on the largest practicable scale. In the execution of this task they employed ten days, hav-, ing been obliged to have several new machines constructed. In his communication to Professor Vola, M. Van Mar'um begins by a d...
