In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

HYDROM'ETER, n. [See Hydrometry.] An instrument to measure the gravity, density, velocity, force, &c. of water and other fluids, and the strength of spirituous liquors.
An instrument for determining the specific
gravities of liquids, and thence the strength spirituous liquors,
saline solutions, etc.
* It is usually made of glass with a graduated stem, and indicates the specific gravity of a liquid by the depth to which it sinks in it, the zero of the scale marking the depth to which it sinks in pure water. Extra weights are sometimes used to adapt the scale to liquids of different densities. An instrument, variously constructed, used
for measuring the velocity or discharge of water, as in rivers, from
reservoirs, etc., and called by various specific names according to
its construction or use, as tachometer, rheometer,
hydrometer, pendulum, etc.; a current gauge.
