scale of common attraction must be there; and the law is sealed to eternal truth in Jesus.

Hence we learn that sheer distance in space has no proportioning power, but is only the yard's length to measure the powers which it cannot give, or alter, or mediate, over physics in the first law of justice; and that when separation exists, the final proportioning properties must be simply mass, condensed or expanded in and between in space, however it may be aided by other properties embedded for the possible order in the refinement of the mass.

Thus, Newton's definition of the force of gravity is upset so far as it is given for any abstract law of the inverse ratio of the distance. A fact so easily proved, that the mistake is only to be accounted for, when we know astronomers never saw either the value, need, or proper function of a field of refined atoms, to constitute the separating mass by weight in leverage for floating support as a universal medium ruling in gravity over all.

For by Newton, if a pound weight of matter be put into a scale, and when two pounds are put against it, the weight or gravitating force of the one pound be lessened by rising-then, if mass be the rule for attractive force, mass must be altered by its simple motion in the raised scale, and it will be less in value by the simple act of trying its weight; or if distance alter

have proved, is the act of God, or his hold in inertia could not be overcome by a just ratio of power. Thus, as when all the parts have a law alike by mass, the whole mass must as a body: and as no motion, or change of any sort can take place without this law works to a part, so the law manifestly must live to the whole as one. This, the synopsis of God shews in the aspect of the words, "Let light be." Addition for ever in every character of blessing for the "good," i.e.,-Be for ever the formative agent and motive thread, so meant, peculiarly as abiding in place.

it, then the body so tried becomes less in value, without change in mass. The very value of the test actually being in the opposite rule, i.e., that to prove the value of the mass, the rise in the scales must not affect the value in the mass, but that it may be taken out of the lesser scale after it is removed further from the earth's law to a nearer position to other bodies in the universal scale, and so it was found a pound was still a honest pound, "for a that," even if taken to Jupiter, when the variation would be all under Jupiter's mass, but a boy would not find a pound of raisins more than a pound. Thus, mass in unity, mass in gravity, and mass in weight being synonymous expressions-distance has nothing to do with the matter. But as in weighing a pound the motion in time and impact being proportionable by comparison with things of the same nature, are found by this only rule of justice, e., through a column of corpuscular chemically separable air, which by its floating weight on its own just centre rules the demonstration, the comparative value between a mass of iron, copper, or stone, or any gas, is attainable, as against its double in mass. distance or law by true vacuo come in, and the fundamental law of any proportion in physics is at an end.*

Let

Copernicus proved this from the top of the Tower of Pisa. Vacuo would have placed feathers on equality with lead, i.e., expansion of matter in vacuo has been ignored. God's own standard of abstract perfection must be the only final, because the only ever

*So much for the new dream that "the most valued of the generalizations of science in the present century are those of the conception of force, as being centered in points of space and not points of matter." Newton's views are not always right, but they are not so easily upset as our present philosophers think, on the value of solidity.

older and pre-existing scale of comparison;* can be only seen in perfection, and so used by Himself, as the infinite can only reach to the infinite; but under his rule, He ever, while retaining testimony to his own standard as the one he must abide by for his own glory, brings all beings to a just scale. Matter, as matter in solidity by weight on inertia ; higher properties by their own sympathies as so embedded for any sphere-Angels with angels, and men with "The Man" given by Him. The student of nature, by this thesis, obtained under the aid of the divinely given synopsis, having now proved to him how mistaken the greatest of the masters of the past in science was in the element of the property which was his own discovery, will be prepared for great changes of view on other points.

It is said of Newton that his mind was much impressed with the idea that some universal medium must exist, and it is not strange that his study of astronomic times with weights and measures, as associate facts under the same general apparent submission to the parallels of forces round a centre, should have so affected him; but he never settled the question, and so far from any other doing it, Professor Mitchell, of America, admitted this fact of Newton's impression, and declared his judgment to be absolute against it; and the non-corpuscularity both of light as the force of motion by heat, and the

* We generally hold, where one means does a thing perfectly, another is intrusive and idle, yea, an incumbrance and trouble. Let the experimentalist draw four united tubes, one a supposed vacuum, the others filled with air, water, and mercury. The variations of the earth's attraction on a ball of gold and feather is found nil in the vacuum, i.e., emptiness can do nothing: but in every medium the work can be done perfectly. Equal precipitation is the equal result in emptiness on all points.

equally non-gravitating power of the outer ether, has been the theory of our first men of science since the earlier parts of this work appeared: thus, leaving in our hands the entire service of the demonstrations as the gift of God through his Word. The author of

this work has to confess, that in the earlier parts, bearing on the earth, as then the sole mass of the universe on one centre, he was so far blinded by common opinion about the inverse ratio of the distance, as not to see the absolute need that this distance can only be a line by measure of a column of refined and chemically divided substance, sui generis, subject to weight as the resting decider, and stamp refiner of all the measures among the associates. In this mistake he was the more readily left, because the initial power of disturbed matter is to sub-divide its own atoms, and like any other sum throw off to its bounds, for due finality in the radius of position under attraction, the final atoms of the floating cold ray of luminosity. Consequently, while dealing only with this earth, he dealt with this as the power producing the atmosphere, not perceiving that such secondary atmosphere could not be a secondary at all, but must be only for ever on the base ground of the first atmosphere, or final initial in circulating decision by universal circular pressure, as the pneumatic scale-stamp over all. Yet the due expansion and connection of matter under mere attraction and heat discharge was therein taught in 1862. When he came to the astronomic age this error left him in fixation, until the Word of Light regarding the first thing mentioned as a creation in the synopsis, shewed him the mistake; as the fact that gravitation, as attraction acting from all bodies, on all bodies from every quarter, mùst fill the intermediate spaces to the final power of subdivision in final atoms, was

taught on the principles of the first parts, by the laws of our atmosphere and the Zodiacal Light. Neither, however, with the solider circle of the earth's needed surface, could be checked in rising for their definite purposes and aspects, if a full heaven of fluid atoms in such a peculiar and sufficiently great distinction in chemistry and solidity, as to make them for ever a floating balance to an atom in their spheres, and yet an added circulating interjection with the thermal stream, by its power over the vortex wave-line, had not been made by fiat to decide interior tides.*

Fiat must have made the womb-law in God, for all the true proportioners of the scale of nature from the first, and so keeps the law of finality in rule to the end, to be a consistent creation of perfection. Upper surface purposes in solids demand the upper support and rise pressure of a fluid. If distance affects heavenly bodies in attraction on each other, except by reducing the column and expanse, ruling the association, and also in rising fluids on each other as the hindrance, then we are bound to at least believe the moon has lost mass by every nearer approach whereby she moves with more power our tidal wave. How is it made up again? Such is this part of the result on the first law of science, which when removed, by proving changes of mass in a given space can alone incrcase or relieve the attraction at work in that space, involves, that the law of addition or feeding, is the necessary first law of the finite volume-our universe-in the will of God,

* No balance fit to find the proportions of other matters has ever been efficient, unless the chemical distinction in its own unity has been the required possession. As the action of the universe is not only of variations in a flow and bar power gravitational of sheer weight, but of thermal sympathies and proportions also for each level in chemical peculiarity.
