292 Faraday on Electro Magnetic Rotation. 



consequence of repeating and examining this particular experi- 

 ment, that I was led into the investigation given in my first 

 paper. He who will read that part of the sketch, above referred 

 to *, and then the first, second, and third pages of my paperf, 

 will, I think, at once see the connexion between them; and from 

 my diflference of expression in the two, with regard to the at- 

 tractive and repulsive powers, which I at first supposed to exist, 

 will be able to judge of the new informaiion which I had, at the 

 period of writing the latter paper, then, for the first time 

 acquired.
