[meteorite-list] What is Chladni's book on 18 meteorite fallstitle??????

Chladni wrote a number of books and papers about meteorites, two of perhaps the most important are: 

"Über den Ursprung der von Pallas gefundenen und anderer ihr ähnlicher Eisenmassen und über einige damit in Verbindung stehende Naturerscheinungen, (On the Origin of the Pallas Iron and Others Similar to it, and on Some Associated Natural Phenomena."

"Über Feuer-Meteore, und über die mit denselben herabgefallenen Massen."

Hello Listers

I am wondering if any of you history meteorite buffs by chance know the name of Chladni's book he wrote on 18 meteorites falls and if there might be an English pdf version floating around on the Internet or somewhere else? Also, I was trying to look for a copy of the paper titled "On Some Stones Allegedly Fallen from the Heaven" published in 1790 by Abbe Andreas Xavier Stutz which Chladni extensively quoted from when he was writing his book.
