Sinopsis
Excerpt from First Outlines of a Dictionary of Solubilities of Chemical Substances
Many practical men will be inclined to object to the manner in which all the state ments found relating to any subject have been copied, without special indication that any attempt has been made to single out the more trustworthy among them. To this objection I reply by denying that the compiler has, as a general rule, any right to pass judgment upon experimental results with which he has no special familiarity. The cor rection of errors of experiment, excepting occasional instances of palpable inaccuracy, should be left to subsequent experimenters, i. E. To persons practically conversant with the subject; and the criticisms of such have been given already in most of the instances in which they have fallen under my notice.

Excerpt from First Outlines of a Dictionary of Solubilities of Chemical Substances
The utility of a complete dictionary of the solubilities of chemical substances, or in fact of any of the physical constants of chemistry, needs no explanation. In publishing, however, these First Outlines of the Dictionary of Solubilities, which some years ago I began to compile, I wish to state the circumstances which have occasioned this course, and to request that the purport and aim of the book may be kept constantly in view.
Some six years since, while attending lectures on applied science in Paris, I was first impressed with the great practical importance of a wider dissemination of our knowledge of the solubilities of salts, while at the same time I was convinced that Chemical Science itself might gain many advantages if all known facts respecting solubilities were gathered from the widely scattered original sources into one special comprehensive work, and thus presented in an easily accessible form. I at that time conceived the idea of collecting all the materials and embodying them in a dictionary, where each of the determinations already made might be within the reach of all persons interested, and which might, moreover, serve as a body of facts into which new and scattered observations should be incorporated, and from which erroneous statements, now current, could be eliminated, as they are from time to time disproved. The importance of such a work was the more clearly impressed upon me, since I had learned, by previous experience, how many difficulties and delays attend the correct determination of solubilities, and had observed how little attention is usually paid to the labors of earlier experimenters, either as regards avoiding or refuting their errors, or bearing witness to the accuracy of their results. Besides furnishing, as an aid to chemical research, either in the scientific or the practical laboratory, a catalogue of known (or supposed) facts, such a compilation might answer the further purpose of indicating to those willing to labor for the advancement of science the numerous gaps in our knowledge of the subject which remain to be filled up.
In proceeding to carry out this scheme, it was thought best to prepare, in the first place, a rough outline list of the names of substances, together with such general statements of their solubilities as are contained in standard systematic works on Chemistry, like Gmelin's Handbook, the treatises of Gerhardt, Dumas, etc. From these materials an alphabetical catalogue - the first of the kind, it is believed, ever attempted in our language - was framed, into which more detailed statements from original memoirs were to be inserted; the matter previously taken from text-books serving merely as a guide in collating materials drawn directly from first sources, and as a means of controlling the accuracy of the final abstracts.
