 The General Court of Massachusetts for the year 1829-1830 
 passed Resolves (chap. 50) requiring each town in the Common- 
 wealth to forward to the Secretary's office an accurate map of its 
 territory, from actual surveys, on the scale of one hundred rods to 
 an inch. Another Resolve of the same year (chap. 58) empowered 
 the Governor to appoint a Surveyor, with assistants, to make a Trig- 
 onometrical Survey of the Commonwealth, accompanied by astro- 
 nomical observations. A Resolve of the next General Court (chap. 
 18) authorized the further measure of a Geological Survey. Gov- 
 ernor Lincoln, whose long administration was signalized by substan- 
 tial and permanent monuments of the most liberal and enlightened 
 policy, and to whose persevering exertions the accomplishment of 
 this, among other objects of high public utility, is materially in- 
 debted, took the first steps towards executing the will of the Leg- 
 islature, by appointing Mr. Robert Treat Faine, of Boston, Chief 
 Engineer, with Mr. James Stevens, of Newport, Rhode Island, for 
 his Assistant, and Professor Hitchcock, of Amherst College, Geolog- 
 ical Surveyor. 
 
 Towards the end of the year, Mr. Stevens, having proceeded to 
 Washington, and borrowed some instruments from the jjublic offices, 
 selected a place for measuring a base line, and employed jMr. Simeon 
 Borden, of Fall River, to construct an apparatus for the measure- 
 ment. The winter was spent by Mr. Borden in making the appa- 
 ratus and repairing the instruments. In the spring of 1831, the 
 astronomical and chronometrical observations were commenced by 
 the Chief Engineer, and the surveys and triangulations by the 
 
ADVERTISEMENT. 
 
 Topographical Surveyor. In 1834, Mr. Stevens resigned the charge 
 of the Survey, which, from that time, devolved on Mr. Borden. In 
 1838, the Chief Engineer also made his final report, and Mr. Borden 
 was entrusted with the completion of the work. 
 
 At this time, the field-work was supposed to be finished, and a 
 sufficient number of the main triangles had been calculated to cover 
 a section of fifty miles square of the western portion of the State. The 
 town surveys having also been lodged in the Secretary's office, Mr. 
 Borden proceeded to the compilation of the map. Here a serious dif- 
 ficulty occurred, which miglit very naturally have been anticipated. 
 Some of the town surveys, made, of course, by practitioners of very 
 different degrees of skill, were found to be extremely inaccurate. 
 The boundaries of adjacent towns, as delineated by them respect- 
 ively, did not coincide ; the corresponding points of rivers and roads 
 did not meet each other ; and Mr. Borden had to go again into the 
 field, with four or five assistants, to make corrections. At length, in 
 1842, the map was projected, ready for the engraver, on a reduced 
 scale of two and a half miles to the inch, or one eighth part of that 
 of the original plans. Accompanied by a delineation of the Geolog- 
 ical Survey, on a reduced scale of one half of that of the principal 
 map. it was engraved on six plates by Mr. G. G. Smith, of Boston, 
 in the best style of that eminent artist, and was printed and published 
 in the autumn of 1844. Its dimensions are seven feet by four feet 
 and a half. It shows the boundaries of towns, the roads, rivers, 
 mountains, the sites of some principal edifices, the topography of the 
 country generally, and the elevations of the principal stations of the 
 triangulation. The whole cost, independently of that of the town 
 surveys, which has not been reported, exceeded seventy thousand 
 dollars. 
 
 The General Court of 1845, considering that the detailed results 
 of the Survey ought to be made generally accessible for use in laying 
 out roads, measurements of towns, and other like operations, passed 
 a Resolve (chap. 106) directing the Secretary " to cause to be print- 
 ed such portions of the tables deposited in his office, exhibiting re- 
 sults obtained from the recent Trigonometrical Survey of the Com- 
 monwealth, as would be useful" for these purposes; a measure, 
 which has led to the present publication. 
 
AUVEKTISEMENT. Ill 
 
 The base line for the triangulation of the Commonwealth was 
 measured, 7.3882 miles in length, on the west side of Connecticut 
 River, between points in the town of Hatfield, and on the southern 
 bank of Bloody Brook, in Deerfield. The apparatus for the measure- 
 ment, invented and made by Mr. Borden, proved so perfect, that two 
 separate and independent measurements of this long line differed 
 from each other only 0.237 of an inch, a degree of precision which 
 has reasonably excited the admiration of scientific men. A full des- 
 cription of this apparatus, which has since been introduced in the 
 Coast Survey of the United States, maybe found by the professional 
 inquirer in a paper published in the ninth volume of the Transactions 
 of the American Philosophical Society, pp. 33-91. In the opera- 
 tions connected with the triangulation, a twelve-inch repeating the- 
 odolite, with a vertical circle attached, made by Troughton, for Mr. 
 Hassler, of the Coast Survey, was used to measure the vertical angles, 
 and a telescope, forty-six inches in focal length, mounted by Mr. Bor- 
 den, to measure the azimuth angles. 
 
 The results of the triangulation were verified by the series of 
 astronomical observations by Mr. Paine, who thus determined the 
 Latitudes and Longitudes of twenty-seven places in and near Mas- 
 sachusetts. Several of them have also been verified by the United 
 States Coast Survey. The line six or seven miles long between Po- 
 casset Hill, in Tiverton, and Quaker Hill, in Portsmouth, Rhode 
 Island, one of the most distant lines from the measured base, differed 
 but 0.22 of a foot, as determined by the two surveys respectively. 
 
 In digesting the town surveys, in his compilation of the map, so 
 as to reduce the sum of their errors to the lowest possible point, 
 Mr. Borden availed himself of another important invention, first 
 suggested to him by Mr. Alvan Clark, of Cambridge, which has 
 also been introduced into the United States Coast Survey, and 
 into the office of the Topographical Engineers, and by which, 
 it has been said, on good authority, that a sum of not less than 
 five thousand dollars will be annually saved to the country in 
 those offices. It consists in a novel and most ingenious application 
 of the Camera Lucida to the purposes of topographical drawing. 
 
 The Resolve directing this publication was passed only the day 
 before the prorogation of the General Court. As soon as I was able 
 
IV ADVERTISEMENT. 
 
 to give attention to the subject, I perceived that I could but very 
 partially make the Tables " useful," which it was my duty to do, 
 witiiout accompanying them with a plan of the triangulation. I 
 have accordingly caused to be prefixed a lithographed delineation of 
 the triangles, copied with great exactness by Messrs. Bufford & Co. 
 of Boston, from a lithograph accompanying the communication to the 
 American Philosophical Society, above referred to. As the printing 
 of the Tables proceeded, it further became obvious, that, for the 
 same reason, it required to be accompanied by a collection of such 
 mathematical formula as would make it available for the purposes of 
 surveyors. I applied successively to Mr. Borden and to his accom- 
 plished Assistant, Mr. Charles O. Boutelle, now of the United 
 States Coast Survey, to furnish these formulae. Both evinced the 
 same liberal disposition towards the object, which has so uniformly and 
 honorably distinguished their course ; but the engagements of both 
 have been so urgent as not to leave the requisite time at their com- 
 mand. The printing of the Tables was completed last September. But 
 the publication has been delayed to the present time, for want ot the 
 desired mathematical explanations, which, at much inconvenience 
 to themselves, these gentlemen have at length had the great kind- 
 ness to furnish.

INTRODUCTION. 
 
 The survey of the State of Massachusetts, on which the map lately 
 published is founded, was begun under an Act of the Legislature, passed 
 in 1831. It was divided into four sections, Geological, Astronomical, 
 Trigonometrical, and Topographical ; the last three properly forming parts 
 of one great work, whose ultimate object was to furnish data for a complete 
 and thorough map of the State. 
 
 The Tables here given form a part of the data obtained by the 
 Trigonometrical Survey, conducted by Simeon Borden, Esq., combined 
 with the separate astronomical observations made by R. T. Paine, Esq. 
 
 They may be made useful to Engineers, Surveyors, and others, in all 
 parts of the Commonwealth, in various ways, as follows : — 
 
 1. By furnishing accurate data for determining the magnetic variation, 
 and the ratio of its change from year to year, and by affording a test of the 
 existence of local attraction, and a measure of its amount. 
 
 2. By enabling Rail-road Surveyors, or others, having occasion to 
 measure upon long, irregular routes from one town to another, to check 
 their measurements and determine the amount of their error either in length 
 or direction, every time they reach a Trigonometrical point. 
 
 3. By affording bases and azimuths for local surveys of towns and of 
 large farms, more accurate than the small instruments in ordinary use are 
 generally able to give. 
 
 4. By making public the exact relative position of some five hundred 
 points, in all parts of the Commonwealth, to be used for future reference. 
 These will always afford a basis upon which future Topographical Surveys 
 in detail may be made, whenever the changes in the surface of the State 
 shall call for a new map, or for corrections to the present one. 
 
 5. By furnishing the absolute geographical position, in latitude and 
 longitude, of about four hundred points, many of them on the coast, where 
 a knowledge of their true position may be useful to the mariner, and all 
 interesting to the scientific astronomer, or astronomical amateur, who may 
 always refer his observations to some point in his vicinity, upon which 
 many thousand observations have been brought to bear, and which cannot, 
 m the nature of things, be greatly in error.

 fondness for exactness in their field surveys and calculations, and thus

VI INTRODUCTION. 
 
 leading to that reform in the present method of land surveying, which the 
 rapidly increasing value of real estate in the greater part of the State, 
 loudly calls for. 
 
 In tjie following explanations, it is taken for granted, that the reader is 
 conversant with the ordinary principles of Trigonometry, and with the use 
 of Logarithmic Tables. Those who are not, and who wish to avail them- 
 selves of the data in this book, are referred to the works of Flint, Davies, 
 and Gurnmere on Surveying. The first named book contains Logarithm and 
 Traverse Tables. For a higlier order of surveying, Hassler's Log. Tables 
 will be found accurate, useful, and portable. They are carried to seven 
 places of decimals. Examples are given of the methods of working all the 
 formula. Where practicable, rules are given in addition to the ordinary 
 algebraic formulae. 
 
 EXPLANATION OF THE TABLES. 
 
 A Trigonometrical Survey consists in measuring, with the utmost care, 
 a Base Line, in some favorable location, and upon it building a series of 
 triangles. The first has the measured base for one of its sides, and the 
 others gradually enlarge from the base as the configuration of the country 
 will allow. All the three angles, in each triangle, are thus carefully 
 measured, and their sum, if correct, will be equal to two right angles, -phts 
 a small quantity, which is due to the spherical figure of the earth, and is 
 called the spherical excess. 
 
 At some central station, the direction of the true meridian is obtained by 
 astronomical observations, and the angles made with it, by the sides of 
 triangles radiating from that point (called the azimuths) are measured. 
 The latitude of this, and other points of the triangulation, is determined by 
 celestial observations. Care is taken that these points shall have as great a 
 difference of latitude as the figure of the country surveyed will allow. If 
 the survey extends through a degree, or more, of latitude, the astronomical 
 observations, combined with the results of the triangulation, will give the 
 value of a degree in that latitude ; i. e., the number of feet or yards there 
 are in a degree of latitude on that particular part of the earth's surface 
 covered by the survey. 
 
 This value, again combined with a similar one, determined by similar 
 means, in a distant latitude, (as for example, a degree measured in Massa- 
 chusetts combined with a degree measured in Peru,) will give a value for 
 the cUipticity, or compression of the poles of the earth ; or, in other words, 
 the quantity the polar radius is shorter than the equatorial radius. If the 
 survey does not cover a sufficient difference of latitude to enable the 
 observer to determine the ellipticity from his own observations, recourse is 
 had to those of others; and, in such cases, the mean elements of the earth's 
 figure and magnitude, given by M. Bessel, are probably the best extant. 
 
INTRODUCTION. VU 
 
 They will be tound in the explanations of the mode of determining the 
 latitudes and longitudes given further on. 
 
 When a survey is sufficiently extensive, however, every observer will 
 prefer to determine the ellipticity for himself, since, the more such surveys 
 are multiplied, the more they seem to show that the earth's figure is not a 
 regular splieroid, or that there are other, as yet, unknown causes which 
 serve to render the most careful observations uncertain. 
 
 The elements of the earth's figure and magnitude being thus determined 
 by observation, or taken from the observations of others, the differences of 
 latitude, longitude, and azimuth, of all the points of the triangles, are com- 
 puted by means of the azimuths and distances between the stations, 
 commencing at some point where the direction of the meridian has been 
 obtained by observation. The same result may be arrived at, by starting 
 from the observed meridian and computing the Northing or Southing, 
 Easting or Westing, made on every course, on parallels to the meridian of 
 the starting point and its perpendicular. These latitudes and departures, 
 as they are usually called, are then combined so as to proceed from some 
 one zero point, and the diflerence of latitude and longitude computed by 
 means of tables prepared for the purpose, and based upon the elements of 
 the earth's figure and magnitude adopted or observed, as above explained. 
 The latter method has been adopted in the Massachusetts survey, and will 
 be more fully explained and illustrated hereafter. 
 
 The general principles, of which an outline has been given above, were 
 applied to practice in Massachusetts, in the following manner : — 
 
 A base line was selected and measured on the West side of the Con- 
 necticut River, extending from the South part of Deerfield, Franklin 
 County, to near the centre of Hatfield, Hampshire County. It is 7.3SS 
 miles long, and was measured twice over, with a compensating apparatus, 
 constructed by Mr. Borden for the purpose. The two measurements differed 
 0.237 inches, and its final length, reduced to the level of the sea, is 
 39009.73 feet, of the 82 inch copy of Troughton's scale, belonging to the 
 U. S. Coast Survey, at 62° Fahrenheit; the Logarithm of the base is 
 4.5911729. Upon this base, all the measures contained in these tables are 
 founded. The angles were all measured by Mr. Borden, and azimuths 
 observed at French's Hill, in Peru, Berkshire County ; at Boston ; and at 
 Fall River, Bristol County. At the same time, astronomical observations 
 were made at twenty-five points, in different parts of the State, by Mr. Paine. 
 The sides of the triangles were then calculated, and the latitudes and de- 
 partures computed. For greater accuracy and convenience in constructing 
 the map, ]\Ir. Borden divided the State into five sections, each having its 
 own central meridian on parallels, to which, and its perpendicular, all the 
 directions given in these tables are based. 
 
 Section I comprises all that part of the State lying West of Connecticut 
 River, except Gill, and part of Northfield, and is based upon the meridian 
 of French's Hill, in Peru. 
 
Vlll INTRODUCTION. 
 
 Section II is bounded West by Section I, and includes, upon the East, 
 Pepperell, part of Groton, Harvard, Bolton, Berlin, Northborough, West- 
 borough, Upton, and Uxbridge. It is based upon the meridian of Tuft's 
 Hill, in New Braintree. 
 
 Sections III and IV are, in fact, as one, lying North and South of each 
 other, and both based upon the meridian of the State House, in Boston. 
 Section III is bounded West by Section II, and East by the ocean. Sec- 
 tion ly is bounded West by Rhode Island, and includes, on the East, 
 Plymouth, Tisbury, Chilmark, and the Island of No Man's Land. 
 
 Section V comprises all that part of the State lying East of Section IV, 
 and is based upon the meridian of Hyannis station, in Barnstable. 
 
 There are four Tables to each Section : and, as the principle of con- 
 struction is alike in all. Sections III and IV will be taken as examples by 
 which to explain the others. Tables 1 and 2 in each section are alike in 
 their mode of construction and application. Table 1 refers to the primary 
 stations or points where all the three angles in each triangle have generally 
 been measured, and the position of every point carefully determined. 
 Table 2 refers to secondary objects, principally churches, (marked upon 
 the State map by a triangle with a cross upon it, thus^^) and less labor 
 has been bestowed upon them. Their positions are generally accurate to 
 within six feet. The same is the case with the Tables 3 and 4 ; Table 3 
 giving the relative and absolute positions of the primary, and Table 4 
 those of the secondary stations. 
 
 Of Tables 1 and 2. 
 
 Table 1 of these sections contains the bearings and distances from one 
 station to another on parallels to the meridian of the State House, with the 
 Northings and Southings, Eastings and Westings, made on each course. 
 The bearings, at the State House, of the other stations in siglit from it, are 
 determined by direct observation, and of all the others in the section, by 
 combining them with the angles df the triangles observed at each station. 
 
 Page 38. State House to Prospect Hill, 'Waltham, is N. W. 77" 47' 
 13".25. If we suppose the meridian at Prospect Hill parallel to that of the 
 State House, we have, for the direction of the line. Prospect Hill to State 
 House, the same course reversed, viz. : S. E. 77° 47' 13"25. The angle* at 
 Prospect Hill, between State House and Blue Hill, is 47° 2ry 06".S9. Blue 
 Hill being South or to the right of the S. H. as seen from Prospect Hill, the 
 angle must be deducted from the above course, and we shall have 30° 21' 
 06". 36 S. E., as the direction from Prospect Hill to Blue Hill, parallel to the 
 meridimi of the State House ; and reversing this course, Blue to Prospect 
 will be N. W. 30° 21' 06".36. The angle at Blue Hill, between Prospect

 Hill and State House, = 44° 45' 27".55, whence we have Blue Hill to State 
 House, = N. E. 14° 24' 21". 19, or State House to Blue Hill, = S. W. 14° 
 24' 21".19, as given on Page 38. In this manner, the bearings, parallel to 
 the meridian of the starting point, are carried through Tables 1 and 2 of 
 each section. 
 
 The distance, in feet, on each line is given in Table 1, and is the 
 hypothenuse of a right-angled triangle, of which the bearing is one of the 
 angles, and the numbers in the other two columns, the legs. Let B^ihe 
 bearing of any side, a= the distance, c^ latitude, and 6 = departure on 
 each course ; then (1) 6^a Sin. i? ; (2) c=a Cos. i?; that is, the de- 
 parture, or Easting and Westing, is the measure of the sine of the course, 
 and the Northing or Southing is the measure of its cosine. 
 
 Page 38. Example. State House to Blue Hill = S. W. 14° 24' 21".19. 
 Distance = 54956.13. 
 
 B=14° 24' 21".19 Log. Sin. = 9.3958318 Cos. = 9.9861255

 Departure = i = 13672.50 Log. = 4.1358479 Lat. = c = 53228. 18 Log. = 4.7261416 
 
 corresponding with the numbers given in the table. In this manner, all 
 the latitudes and departures have been computed, both in Table 1 and 
 Table 2 of each section. Table 2 differs from Table 1 only in having the 
 distances from the station to the object observed left out. It may be sup- 
 plied from the two legs of the right-angled triangle, which are given by 
 transposing either of the preceding formula;, viz. : (3) a := ^^^ ; or, (4) 
 
 Page 43. Example. The bearing of Bunker Hill Monument* from the 
 State House is given N. E. 6° 46' 14"; Northing, 6625.94 feet. Required, 
 the distance. By formula (3) a = 'ij^^b 
 
 c = 6025.94 =3.8212475 
 
 J5 = 6° 46' 14" Cos. = 9.9969607 
 a = distance = 6672.47 = 3.8242868 
 
 The same result would be obtained by dividing the Easting by the sine of 
 the course, as in formula (4) a = -g — ^ 
 
 The angles may be deduced from the bearings m either Table 1 or 2, or 
 both combined, as the case may be ; thus, it is required to know the angle 
 at Blue Hill, between Wachusett Mountain and Holt's Hill. 
 
 Page 29, we find Blue to Wachusett = N. W. 63° 54' 3G".58 
 
 Blue to Holt's = N. E. 00° 47' 51".93 
 
 Angle required = 64° 42' 2S".51 
 
 * The name of the town in which the object is situated precedes the name of the object. The reader will 
 therefore look for Charlestown. 
 
INTRODUCTION. 
 
 What is the angle at Blue Hill, between the State House and Prospect 
 Hill, Hingham ? 
 
 Blue to State House* =: N. E. = 14° 24' 21".19 
 Blue to Prospect, Hingham, S. E. = 8 4° 19' 3r)^'.0Q 
 
 1 80° — 9 8° 43' 56". 19 
 Angle required = 81° IG' 03".81 
 In this case, both courses are on the same side of the meridian, one North 
 and the other South ; their sum deducted from 180°, is, therefore, the angle. 
 Required the angle at INahant station, between Blue Hill and Cohasset 
 Church. Page 34, Table 1, we find 
 
 Nahant to Blue Hill = S. W. 33° 35' 31" 
 and page 43, Table 2, 
 
 Nahant to Cohasset Church = S. E. 25° 24' 49" 
 
 59° 00' 20" = angle required. 
 Fractions of seconds may be rejected, in all ordinary cases, where these 
 tables will probably be used. 
 
 Of the columns of Southings and Westitigs in Tables 3 and 4. 
 
 Tables 3 and 4 contain, in the first two columns, the Southings and 
 Westings of every station and secondary object in the section from the 
 Northeastern-most point in it, viz. : Salisbury Marsh in the N. H. State 
 Line. They arc constructed from the Northings, Southings, Eastings, and 
 Westings of the first two tables, in the following manner : Salisbury Marsh 
 is called Zero, and all the other stations are South, and nearly all, West of it. 
 
 On Page 36, we find Prospect Hill, Rowley, to Salisbury Marsh, N. E. 
 17° 28' 26"; the Northing = 60737..53 ; Easting = 19120.12. Prospect 
 Hill is, therefore, S. and W. of Salisbury Marsh by these quantities, and 
 they are registered accordingly in Table 1. 
 
 On Page 35, we find Powow Hill to be 2255.80 South, and 31574.40 
 West of Salisbury Marsh ; and also on Page 36, we find Powow Hill to be 
 58481.13 North, and 12454.76 Westf of Prospect Hill, Rowley. But the 
 latter station is 60737.53 South, and 19120.12 West of Salisbury Marsh ; 
 therefore, 
 
 60737.53 19120.12 
 
 — 58481.13 + 1 2454.76 
 
 Powow Hill S. = 2250.40 W. = 31574.88 of Salisbury Marsh. 
 
 The mean between tliis result and that obtained directly from the Zero Point 
 is registered as in Table 3, the true Southing and Westing of Powow Hill. 
 
 * The reader will observe, that he cannot find the stations, in the Tables, named in the order they are here 
 quoted ; — he will therefore in this case, and in all simil.ir cases, look for them reversed. For example : the 
 course from Blue Hill to the State House caiuiol he found in the Tables, but the course from the Slate 
 House to Blue Hill can j — the reader, therefore, has only to reverse that course, which will be the course 
 required. 
 
 t By a typographical or clerical error, this bearing has been printed N. E., it should be !V. W. 
 
INTRODUCTION. XI 
 
 In the same manner, all these three points are then brought to bear upon 
 the position of Railcut Hill, in Gloucester, which being East of Salisbury 
 Marsh, has the inimis or negative sign prefixed in the column of Westings, 
 in Table 3, (thus, —46325.96) signifying that it is 46325.96 feet East of 
 the meridian of Salisbury Marsh (parallel to the prime meridian). 
 
 Proceeding thus from station to station, we have, in the end, the mean 
 relative positions of every point in the Section, referred to one Zero Point, 
 and now so connected together as to allow us to change this Zero Point at 
 will. In Section I, the Zero Point is the S. W. corner of the State, and all 
 the others are North and East from it ; in Section V, the stations are all 
 South and East of the Zero Point, but the principle of construction and 
 iise is the same in all, only difl'ering in the mode of its application. This 
 table requires much labor in the preparation, and great care in combining 
 the means of the relative positions so as to produce the most accurate re- 
 sult, and, once formed, it is the most important table of all ; since from it 
 the whole of the others may be reproduced. 
 
 It may be used to determine the direction and distance between any two 
 points in the same section, whether visible from each other or not. 
 
 Example 1. 
 What is the direction and distance from the State House, in Boston, to 
 the New Bedford Court House?

 Dif. = S. =263726.45 Diff. E. = 36301.02 
 
 These differences are the legs of a right-angled triangle, of which the di- 
 rection is one of the angles, and the distance the hypothenuse. Using the 
 notation before given, we have, by the rules of Trigonometry, (5) Tang.

XU INTRODUCTION. 
 
 The foregoing problem may be made useful in almost every case in 
 which these tables may be used. In order to render more plain the above 
 formula, it is given, also, in the form of a proportion, and a rule for work- 
 ing it by Logarithms is added. 
 
 For finding the direction and distance between any places named in 
 Tables 3 and 4. 
 
 (1) c : Radius : : b : Tang. B 
 
 (2) Cos. B : c : : Radius : a 
 
 (3) Sin. B : b :: Radius : a 
 
 Rule. For the direction or course. From the Log. of the departure 
 (Easting or Westing,) subtract the Log. of the latitude (Northing or South- 
 ing;) the remainder will be the Log. Tangent of the course, (parallel to 
 the meridian on which the section is based.) 
 
 For the Distance. From the Log. of the latitude subtract the Log. Cosine 
 of the course, the remainder will be the Log. of the distance ; or, from the 
 Log. of the departure subtract the Log. Sine of the course, the remainder 
 will be the Log. of the distance, as before. 
 
 On the Convergence of Meridians. 
 
 Hitherto, we have considered all the courses as parallel to the central 
 meridian on which each section is based; but, as all meridians converge to 
 the poles of the earth, a correction must be applied to every course, com- 
 puted as above, to obtain the true direction of the meridian. This cor- 
 rection varies with the latitude, and may be calculated to a very close 
 degree of accuracy by the following formula : — 
 
 (6) Tang. ^ C=Sin. L Tang. J P, 
 
 in which Z, == latitude ; P = difference of longitude between central sta- 
 tion and that for which the convergence is required ; C = angle of 
 convergence between meridian of central station and that of the observer. 
 
 Example. "What is the convergence of the meridian of Hyannis Station, 
 in Barnstable, with the meridian of the State House ? 
 
 Page 7L Lat. of Hyannis Station = 41° 37' 53".36 : Long.=70° 18' 42".92

 The second column of this table gives the number of feet of Easting or 
 Westing in one second of convergence, i. e. in lat. 42° 00', for every 112.761 
 feet of departure made on any course, that course will change 1" ; for twice 
 that distance it will change 2" ; and for 60 times that distance, or 6765.66 
 feet, the course will change one minute. 
 
 When the point at which the true bearing is required is east of the prime 
 meridian, the correction for convergence is additive to the N. E. and S. W. 
 courses, and subtractive from those which are N. W. and S. E., and vice 
 versa when the point is wesl of the prime meridian.

 In this manner, the direction of the true meridian may be determined at 
 any point given in these Tables. The difference between the magnetic 
 bearing of any line and its tabular bearing, corrected for convergency, will 
 be the magnetic variation of the compass at the time and place of observa- 
 tion. As it is important that the method of applying the correction for 
 convergency should be clearly understood, an example in each section is 
 added.

 The primary and secondary trigonometrical lines given in these Tables 
 are so numerous, and may be multiplied to such an extent by means of 
 Tables 3 and 4 of each section, that surveyors, in almost all cases, may 
 find some line in their immediate neighborhood, on which a compass may 
 be placed to determine the variation. It may happen, however, that local 
 attraction of the magnetic needle exists at the point selected for this pur- 
 pose. To detect it, let the surveyor observe the bearing of some object, 
 witliin half a mile of his instrument, making an angle of about 60° with 
 the trigonometrical line on which his compass is placed ; then the bearing 
 of another object, making an angle of about 120°, and so around the hori- 
 zon, carefully noting the bearings of objects about 60° apart. Although 
 the compass may not give the true magnetic bearings of the points observed 
 • upon,U will give the angles sufficiently correct between them and the trig- 
 onometical stations. The true astronomical bearings of these points may 
 then b^educed from the angles, as has been before explained. This done, 
 let the 3rveyor place a conspicuous mark at the place occupied by his 
 instrumet and, going to the different objects observed upon, take the 
 magnetic \aring at each of the central stations he has left. The magnetic 
 variation oJuced from all these bearings, taken at different points, should 
 be very nes^he truth.* 
 
 * Magnetic variation may be best determined about 10 A. M. 
 
XVl INTRODUCTION. 
 
 Example. 
 In Example 2 of the paragraph on convergence on meridians, the true 
 bearing of a Hne from Hopkinton Church to Sherburne Church, was foimd 
 to be N. 84° 04' E. A surveyor finds its magnetic bearing to be S. 89° 20' 
 E., giving a magnetic variation of 6° 36' West. Knowing the variation to 
 be more, he suspects local attraction, and, to detect it, takes the following 
 bearings to objects from a third to half-mile distant, his compass standing 
 at a point which we will call A, in the line between the two churches and 
 near the western one.

 Then placing a signal at A, and going to each of these points, he takes 
 the following magnetic bearings :

 The "Three-point Problem" may be used to such great advantage in 
 connection with these Tables, that a concise explanation of the mode of 
 working it, with an example, may not be out of place.

 three points A, B, C, forming a triangle, the elements

 determine the direction and distance of my station P 
 from each object.

 Mathematical Instruments and Surveying, (Ed. of 1844, Baltimore, F. Lu-

 The use of these formulae need not be embarrassing if care is taken in 
 properly applying the signs of Cos. and Cot. R. When R is less than 93°, 
 both Cos. and Cot. a.xe plus ; between 90° and 180°, both are minus ; be- 
 tween 180° and 270°, the Cos. is minus, and-^ie Cot plus; between 270° 
 and 360°, the Cos. is plus, and the Cot. nanus. 
 
 Example. 
 At a point P, near *Jne new Observatory in Cambridge, the following 
 angles were me^osured, viz : 
 
 Bunker Hill Monument and State House = 20° 05' 53" = P 
 State House and Roxbury Church = 35 06 08 = P' 
 
 It is hence required to determine the direction and distance of the point 
 of observation from each of these places. 
 
 The data required from the Tables will be.

 b ^ State House to Roxbury Church, ^ ment = C. 
 
 The distances must be computed by formula (3) or (4), and the angle C 
 obtained from the bearings given in the Tables.

 The above comprises all the data required in the calculation of formula 
 (7). R being in the second quadrant, (between 90° and 180°,) both Cos. 
 and Cot. are minus. To save labor and space, the arithmelical comple- 
 ments of the Logarithms of the terms {b. Sin. P. Cos. R') are added to the 
 Logarithms of (a. Sin. J°'), instead of subtracting the Logarithms them- 
 selves. The result is, of course, the same.

 And thus we have finally the means of determining the direction and dis- 
 tance from P to any other point in the section, as has been before explained. 
 
 There are three positions which may be taken for the point P, in all of 
 which formula (7) will give an accurate result ; 1st, that shown in the 
 figure, where the point of observation P is outside of the known triangle 
 ABC] 2d, where P is inside the triangle; 3d, where P is outside, but 
 Station C is reversed, so that the line PC will no where intersect the line 
 AB. In all these cases, ACBP should be considered as forming a quadri- 
 lateral of which we know two sides a and b, and two angles (P -|- P') and 
 C. Therefore their sum from 360 = i? = a- -j- y, either of which being 
 known, all the rest may be found by the ordinary rules of trigonometry. 
 In the third case, care should be taken in deducing R, to use the exterior 
 angle at Cin the triangle ABC] i. e. its complement to 360°. 
 
 The three-point problem is indeterminate when P falls upon the periphery 
 of a circle passing through ABC. A case of this nature in practice is of 
 rare occurrence ; but, to guard against it, an angle might be measured to a 
 fourth trigonometrical point, if one can be seen ; or it may readily be de- 
 tected by a geometrical construction of the figure. 
 
 We now proceed to give an example of computing the bearings and dis- 
 tance between points, of which we have no other data respecting their 
 relative position than their Latitudes and Longitudes. For this purpose 
 we select the Southwest corner of the State and Chatham South Light. 
 
 Let P = the angle at the pole, or ditference of Longi- 
 tude ; b = Co. Lat. of the Southwest corner of the 
 State ; a = Co. Lat. of the Southwest corner of the 
 State -[- the difference of Latitude of the points chosen 
 in an arc corresponding in value with the perpendicular 
 degree for the Latitude of the Southwest corner of the 
 State. Then, by Spherical Trigonometry, determine the 
 angles A and B and the side /;. The angle A being 
 greater than 90°, its supplement will be the course from 
 the Southwest corner of the State to Chatham South 
 Light ; the angle B being less than 90°, will be the 
 course from Chatham South Light to the Southwest cor- 
 ner of the State.

 INTRODUCTION. 
 
 The side p having been determined in an arc of the value of the perpen- 
 dicular degree, may be readily reduced to feet, and, of course, to any other 
 measure of length required. The above operations, when performed, will 
 give results sufficiently accurate for all common purposes. But, if greater 
 accuracy is required, we may assume a second spherical triangle, as fol- 
 lows, viz. : P = the angle at the pole will be the same in both cases. Let 
 the side a^the Co. Lat. of Chatham S. Light, and the side 6=a minus 
 the difference of Lat. in an arc corresponding in value with the perpendic- 
 ular degree for the Lat. of Chatham S. Light. Then by spherical trigo- 
 nometry, with these new elements, re-determine the angles A and B, and 
 the side p, and a mean of the angles and sides thus determined, will ^ive 
 the result very nearly exact.

 In the following Tables of the result of the Trigonometrical Survey, 
 there are many points whose Northings or Southings, Eastings or West- 
 ings (according to the notation of the section in which they are situated), 
 are given in feet ; their Latitudes and Longitudes having never been calcu- 
 lated ; and inasmuch as it seems to be necessary to know the Latitudes and 
 Longitudes of such stations, in order to obtain the bearing and distance be- 
 tween them, it may not be amiss to give an example of the mode of calcu- 
 lation. 
 
 Suppose it was desirable to know the bearing and distance between Blue 
 Hill station, situated in the third section of the survey, and the Holyoke 
 House, situated in the second section. By examining Table 4, Section II, 
 it will be seen, that the Latitude of Holyoke House has never been calcu- 
 lated ; neither can there be found, in the Tables of Section II, the Southing 
 and Westing of Blue Hill station, computed from the meridian and paral- 
 lels to the meridian of Tuft's Hill. By an examination of Table 3, Section 
 HI and IV, the Latitude and Longitude of the Blue Hill station will be 
 found, but the Southing and Westing of Holyoke House cannot be found in 
 these Tables. It therefore becomes necessary to know the Latitude and 
 Longitude of Holyoke House, as one of the elements to be used in the cal- 
 culation. 
 
 To compute the Latitude of Holyoke House, we have, from Table 3, 
 Section II (page 24), the Southing and Westing of a point from which to 
 calculate the Latitude and Longitude of the section (which point we gen- 
 erally designate as the Cardinal pouH, and shall so call it in the calculations 
 which we arc about to introduce). We also have, from Table 4, Section 
 II (page 25), the Southings and Westings of Holyoke House. 
 
 To ascertain the bearing from the Cardinal point to Holyoke House, sub- 
 tract the Log. of the difl'erence of Southing from the Log. of the difference 
 of Westing, which gives the Tangent of the course. Thus,

 JP Having thus obtained the bearing from the Cardinal

 / \ Cardinal point, A for Holyoke House, R for a point in the 
 
 / \ meridian of the Cardinal point, corresponding in Southing 
 
 / \ with the point A. 
 
 I \ We now proceed to find the Latitude of R. 
 
 We have found i? =20630.53 feet south of C, and from 
 Table B (for facilitating the calculations of Latitude and 
 
 aS'^- Ik Longitude), we find the mean logarithmic value of a second 
 
 standing against the distance which nearest corresponds to the distance 
 named above =2.00.52210, to which we may add 1 as its proportion of the 
 difierence between this Log. and the preceding Log. of the Tables (the 
 distance against the mean Log. second being about a thousand feet greater 
 than the distance given above). We therefore have, 
 
 20630.53 feet. Log. = 4.3145104

 If we now let -p represent the side opposite the polar angle in arc, we 
 then have the Log. of AR minus Log. value of a second of a perpendicular 
 degree in feet = Log. p in seconds. Thus, 
 
 A west of J? = 136227.42 ft. Log. = 5.1342645 
 From Table C, we find tlie Log. value of perp. second for Lat. iJ, Log. = 2.0065967

 (3) P = 30 14 .08 Cot. = 12.0557564 
 
 We have thus found the angle P or the difference of Longitude by Spher- 
 ical Trigonometry, which probably gives it as accurately as the problem 
 will admit. This method should be followed in all cases where the polar 
 angle exceeds 35' ; but when the polar angle is less than 30' or 35', we may, 
 with sufficient accuracy for every practical purpose, determine the polar 
 angle by the following method, viz. : having determined the Latitude of R, 
 
XXIV INTRODUCTION. 
 
 then, from the Log. of the difference of Westing of C and A, subtract the 
 Log. vakie of polar seconds (from Table D) or differences of Longitude, 
 and the remainder will be the Log. of the number of seconds and decimal 
 parts of a second contained in the polar angle or difference of Longitude. 
 Thus, for example, 
 
 Difference of Westing of C A, Log. = 5. 1342645 
 Tabular Log. (from Table D) for Lat. of R = 42° 18' 05". 16 = 1.8756052 
 
 Difference of Longitude in seconds = 181409 Log. = 3.2586593 
 
 (4) Difference of Longitude = 30° 14' 09", varying only 0".01 from the 
 
 previous determination. 
 
 I would here remark, that this method may be used for calculating the 
 Longitude of any and every point which has not been heretofore calculated. 
 Having thus obtained the polar angle and the Latitude of B, we might, by 
 a solution of the right-angled spherical triangle PRA, find the length of the 
 side PA, the complement of which will be the Latitude of A, sufficiently 
 near for all practical purposes. Thus,

 We have thus readily foimd a near approximate Latitude of .4 ; but if it 
 is desirable to ascertain strictly the Latitude of A, the labor of calculation 
 is somewhat increased. To determine the Latitude of A, strictly, we must, 
 in the first place, find the distance AC. 
 
 Let D = distance from C to A, and .8 = the bearing, W the Westing, N the Northing. 
 Then D = , or i3 ^

 (6) D = 137780.7 ft. Log. = 5.1391884 
 
 Having obtained the distance D, we assume a point .r in the meridian 
 AP of the same Lat. as C. The distance xA and the angles AxC and 
 xCA, in the small triangle AxC, being required, we find it convenient to 
 determine the angles at x and C, in the spherical triangle xPC. To deter- 
 mine the angles x and C, we have Cot.x=GotC^= Cos. PC. Tang. J P.

 Having thus found the angles AxC and ACx, and substituting for AxC,

 shall always represent it by an unaccented A ; we now have 180° — x=x", 
 and 180°— [C+^ (from 1)]=C". 
 
 (8) Thus, 180°— 89° 49' 48". 87 =90° W 11". 13 = a/'. 
 
 (9) And 180°— [89 49 48 .87-J-81 23 18 .45] = 8° 46' 52".68 = C". 
 
 Having proceeded thus far, it becomes necessary to calculate approxi- 
 mately the area of the small triangle AxC, for the purpose of ascertaining 
 the excess of the three angles of said triangle over 180°, that we may be 
 able to calculate, according to the method of Legendre, the length of the 
 side xA:* 
 
 To compute the spherical excess, we have to find the approximate area 
 of the small triangle ACx. Let iS^ area, a= the side xC, and 7?=^ the 
 side J. C, and 6'=: the angle arC^. We then have <S'=^«p. Sin. C Com- 
 puting by Logarithms ; from the Log. of the result we subtract the con-

 Thus we find the difl'erence of Westing, which is a very near approxi-

 The area of this triangle is so small, that, practically, we need not take 
 any note of its spherical excess. I only introduce it for the purpose of 
 explaining the process, when the areas of the triangles are of such magni- 
 tude that this element could not be neglected without producing sensible 
 error ; and, on that account, I shall proceed with the following calculations 
 in the same manner as if Ihe spherical excess had amounted, as it frequently 
 does in calculations of this sort, to 10" or 15". 
 
 To correct the angles for calculating the side Ax, putting E for spherical 
 excess, and representing the corrected angles by x' and C, with one ac- 
 cent, we have 
 
 it"— iJE= if = 90° 10' 11".13— 0".22 = 90° 10' 10".91, the corrected angle. 
 C"—\E = C'= 8 46 52 .08— 0".22 = 8 46 52 .46 " " " 
 
 And of course A = 81 02 56 .63 
 180 00 00 .00 
 
 * Legcndre's method of computing the sides of a triangle may be explained thus: — In every splierieal 
 triangle the sum of the three angles will exceed 180° ; then, if each of the angles be dimiuishi.'d hy one third 
 of this excess, the calculations may be performed the same as in plane trigonometry. 
 
 In computing the constant Log., to be used in determining the spherical excess, I have taken a mean of 
 the radii of the meridional and perpendicular degrees for the Latitude of the Cardinal point. The constant 
 Log. thus deduced = 9.3253871. (See Rees's Cyclopedia, article f^pherical Excess )

 We now look for the nearest corresponding Log. distance from the State

 Log. value of a second, which we subtract from the Log. of Ax, found 
 above, and the remainder will be the Log. of the number of seconds which 
 A is south of C, which, if subtracted from the Latitude of C, will give the

 I would here remark, that when R and A are situated North of C, their 
 differences would become additive. The change in the operations necessary 
 for finding the angles of the small triangle, which in that case will be North 
 of the line Cx, will be obvious. 
 
 Having, by the foregoing operations, obtained the Latitude and Longi- 
 tude of Holyoke House, the bearings and distance to and from Blue Hill 
 may be obtained by calculations similar to those by which we have obtained 
 the bearings and distance between the Southwest corner of the State and 
 Chatham South Liglit. 
 
 The object of being thus minute and particular has been, to introduce 
 the shorter or approximate methods of computing Latitude and Longitude, 
 which will be found sufficiently accurate for most purposes; and also the 
 more exact methods which should always be adopted whenever the area of 
 the small triangle xAC shall be of sufficient magnitude to produce a spher- 
 ical excess of one or two seconds to an angle. 
 
 * In this instance, the Log. from the Table is exact lo the nearest unit, but, in most instances, the Tabular 
 Log. of mean second will need increasing or diminishing by a proportion corresponding to the difference 
 between the Tabular Log. and (he Log. obtained by calculation. 
 
INTRODUCTION. XXVll 
 
 The foregoing methods of computing Latitude and Longitude necessarily 
 require the accompanying Tables A, B, C, D, which are confined to a 
 spheroid of particular dimensions, and are not, therefore, of general appli- 
 cation ; it has therefore been deemed not amiss to add a general formula. 
 The formula of Oriani, taken from page 270 of Galbraith's Mathematical 
 Tables, has been selected as the most simple of any in use. 
 
 Let a denote the radius of the equator = 20914728 ft. = 3961.123 miles. 
 6, the semi-polar axis = 20854128 "= 3949.646 " 
 
 e, the eccentricity :=: i/ - — ;; — = 1/ 1 
 
 il = 0.07607 ft. 
 
 B, the ellipticity = -^ = 0.0028933. 
 
 M, the distance in feet, from the perpendicular to the meridian of the 
 
 Cardinal point. 
 P, the distance in feet to the meridian of the Cardinal point. 
 Put m = — — — , p = — - — , and L the Latitude of the Card'l point.

 Let X be the Latitude of the foot of the perpendicular let fall from the 
 given station on the meridian of the Cardinal point, 
 ip, the required Latitude of the given station, and 
 M, the Longitude of the given station. Then, 
 
 (I) X =i:±m.|l— 2e-}-3e.Cos.'(jL±^)|-

 (IV) Tang.«=^(l-3Cos.= X). 
 
 The radius of the equator and the polar semi-axis were computed from 
 the meridional degree for the Latitude of the Cardinal point :=^ 42° 21' 30", 
 and a perpendicular degree for the same point. Their value in feet is as 
 follows, viz. : — 
 
 Meridional degree = 364356 feet.

 INTKOBUCTION. 
 
 Of the Columns of Latitudes and Longitudes in Tables 3 and 4. 
 
 It has been before stated, that these Tables form a part of the data 
 obtained by the Trigonometrical Survey, combined with the separate astro- 
 nomical observations made by Mr. Paine. These astronomical observations 
 were made at twenty-four places, of which twenty-three are within the 
 limits of the Commonwealth, and the other (University Hall, in Provi- 
 dence, R. I.) near its borders. The differences of Longitude were deter- 
 mined by transportation of chronometers, and referred to the meridian of 
 the State House in Boston. The Longitude of the State House was as- 
 sumed by Mr. Paine, for reasons given in his Report, at 4* 44™ 16'. 6 = 
 71° 04' 09", West of Greenwich. The Report here referred to was made 
 to Governor Everett, in 1S37, and has since been printed by the American 
 Philosophical Society of Philadelphia. The results there exhibited are, in 
 themselves, the best proofs of the care, labor and skill bestowed upon the 
 observations and their reductions. 
 
 The following Table exhibits the final position assigned by Mr. Paine to 
 his points of observation :

INTRODUCTION.

 The mean relative positions of all these points have also been determined 
 trigonometrically. They will be found in their several sections. Nearly 
 all of them are also given in the third and fourth sections. We have seen 
 that, by means of Tables 3 and 4 (first two colums), the difTerences of Lat- 
 itude and departure iu linear measure, between any two points in the same 
 section, may be calculated, whether the points are inter-visible or not. 
 
 The differences of Latitude in terms of the arc, obtained by astronomical 
 observation between certain of the points named in the foregoing Table, 
 situated nearly on the same meridian, being combined with the trigonomet- 
 rical differences in feet, a value is obtained for a degree of the meridian. 
 
 It would answer no useful purpose to enter into a detailed description of 
 the modes of calculation employed to arrive at the final value adopted in 
 the Massachusetts Survey. All that is necessary to a due understanding of 
 the data in the Tables, is the results, and those we proceed to give. 
 
 The following Table shows, 
 
 1. Stations between which comparisons have been made, designated by 
 the numbers opposite their names in the preceding Table of their astronom- 
 ical position ; 
 
 2. Their middle Latitude ; 
 
 3. Amplitude of the arc contained between their parallels, as determined 
 by Mr. Paine, from astronomical observation ; 
 
 4. The same arc in linear measure, as determined by Mr. Borden in the 
 Trigonometrical Survey : 
 
 5. The resulting value of a degree of the meridian, corresponding to the 
 Latitude of a point midway between the two stations; i.e., the number of 
 feet contained in an arc of the earth's surface, extending from a point thirty 
 minutes North of said middle Latitude, to a point thirty minutes South of it.

 INTRODUCTION. 
 
 These twelve separate values, combined so as to produce the most accu- 
 rate result, and reduced by arithmetical progression to the parallel of 42°, 
 gave 364334 feet for the value of a degree of the meridian, whose middle 
 Latitude is 42°. 
 
 The value of a degree perpeiidicvlar to the meridian., in the Latitude of 
 the State House, was deduced from a comparison of the inclination of the 
 meridian of French's Hill, in Peru, Berkshire county, and the State House, 
 in Boston, with the geodetic length of the arc uniting these two stations. 
 They are favorably situated for such a comparison, having but four min- 
 utes' difference of Latitude, and about two degrees' diflerence of Longitude. 
 This comparison gave 365511.33 feet as the value of a degree on the sphe- 
 roid, perpendicular to the meridian in the Latitude of the State House. 
 
 The value of a degree of the meridian, and of a degree perpendicular to 
 the meridian, being thus determined, afforded sufBcient data for computing 
 the figure and magnitude of the earth. These came out as follows : 
 
 Equatorial Radius = 20914728 feet = 3961.123 miles. 
 Polar Semi-axis = 20S54128 " = 3949.646 " 
 Ellipticity = ^ = 0.002S933 of the Eq. Radius. 
 
 The survey of Massachusetts covers so small a portion of the earth's 
 surface, that doubts might well be entertained whether dimensions of siich 
 magnitude as the foregoing could be determined with sufScient accuracy 
 from the data it afforded. To test this question, the above elements were 
 compared with those given by M. Bessel, in the " Astronomische Nachrich- 
 ten" No. 438, which are deduced from a mean of ten trigonometrical sur- 
 veys, measured in different parts of the world. These mean elements of 
 the earth's figure and magnitude are universally regarded as the best data 
 obtainable at the present day. The following Table shows the comparison 
 and its results :

 The foregoing comparison showed the Massachusetts results to be de- 
 serving of confidence, and they were adopted accordingly. 
 
 For the convenience of any person wlio may wish to recompute the fore- 
 going data, and has not ready access to mathematical books, the following 
 formulae, quoted from " Galbraith's Mathematical and Astronomical Ta- 
 bles," page 196, are given : 
 
 "Let </ be a degree of the meridian at any point of which the Latitude is L, 
 
 and Z) be a degree of the curve perpendicular to the meridian at the 
 
 same point ; 
 
 Let a ^Equatorial Radius, and jE7=excess of equatorial over polar radius;

 The next step in the process of computing the Latitudes and Longitudes 
 was, to fix upon some cardinal point from whence the calculations should 
 emanate. For this purpose, the State House was selected, and the obser- 
 vations for Latitude, made by Mr. Paine at nine other places, were reduced 
 to the State House by the general formulae of Oriani. 
 
 The following Table exhibits the Latitude of the State House, deduced 
 from Mr. Paine"s observations at nine other points, combined with the 
 geodetic differences of Latitude :

 [ean Latitude ( 
 
 jf State House = 
 
 = 42° 21' 30". 08 
 
 The uniformity of these separate results led Mr. Borden to adopt their 
 mean as the true Latitude of the State House, notwithstanding it differs 
 7" from the Latitude obtained by observations made at the place itself 
 The cause of this great discrepancy has yet to be discovered. The obser- 
 vations whicji have been made, and are still in progress, at the new Obser- 
 vatory in Cambridge, and the vast mass of data which the Coast Survey 
 
XXXll INTRODUCTION. 
 
 will bring to bear upon it, will probably shed some new light upon this 
 most interesting subject.* 
 
 The final position assigned to the State House, by Mr. Borden, placed it 
 in Latitude 42° 21' 30"; Longitude 71° 04' 09", West of Greemyich, as 
 stated in Table 3, page .58. As differences of Latitude and Longitude only 
 are determined by trigonometrical operations, any change made hereafter, 
 in the geographical position of this point, will affect equally every other 
 point in the State named in these Tables. f 
 
 In Tables 3 and 4 of each Section, a Cardinal point has been determined 
 at the intersection of the parallel of 42° 21' 30" with the meridian on 
 which the Section is based. The differences of Latitude and Longitude, 
 between this Cardinal point and any other point in the same Section, may 
 be computed by the formulae of Oriani, before given ; but much more 
 readily, and with less liability to error, by means of Tables A, B, C, D, 
 prepared originally for the purpose of facilitating these calculations. Their 
 use has been fully explained in the foregoing pages. 
 
 * It is a curious coincidence that a similar discrepancy exists in the city of Philadelphia, between the Lati- 
 tude obtained for the High School Observatory, by astr."uomicaI obser\'ations made there, and those made 
 at other places, and reduced to the Observatory by trigonometrical differences. The discrepancy in our 
 case cannot properly be charged to errors in the methods or quantities used in their reduction, since the 
 points of observation are both North and South of the State House, and an error in either of these would be 
 immediately felt in die result. The use of IBessel's mean elements will hardly change the result a tenth of a 
 second. 
 
 t It is proper to state here, that, in a paper read before the American Philosophical Society, at Philadel- 
 phia, on the occasion of their centennial meeting in 1843, Mr. Borden recommended, for reasons there given, 
 that the mean of all Mr. Paine's observations, reduced to the State House, be substituted for the above. 
 There are, in all, five thousand four hundred and seventy-five observations by Mr. Paine, at twentj'-four sta- 
 tions, all of which, reduced to the Stale House, give, for its mean Latitude, 42® 21' 28".G6. This correction 
 therefore = — 1".34 to all the Latitudes given in these Tables,

 The following are the results of work done with the small si.\-inch Theodolite that reads to a minute only, 
 in the minor triangulation. From the manner in wliicli these results were obtained, they are probably not so 
 accurate as they would have been had they come more direct from the primitive stations; still it is presumed 
 that none will be found in error to exceed ten feet, and the most of them are much nearer.

 For the purpose of locating secondary objects, it became necessary to introduce several new stations into 
 the survey. This was done by measuring two angles only of the triangle in some cases, and by the three- 
 point problem (so called) in others. It is not to be supposed that they are so accurately located as they would 
 have been, had they been connected with the work earlier. 
 
 The following Table shows from what stations the new stations were located. Being in the third and fourth 
 sections, they are a continuation of bearings, &c. on parallels to the meridian of the State House.
