The thoughts embodied in this and the five following chapters were first 

 shadowed forth by the author in the Michigan Journal of Education in 

 1860. They were more fully elaborated in the Ladies Repository for No 

 vember and December, 1863, and January, 1864. Many thoughts and 

 conceptions which were then original appear to be now but the echoes of 

 Mayer, Helmholtz, and others. This is particularly the case in reference 

 to the doctrine of solar refrigeration. That doctrine, then entirely new 

 to the writer, was put forth with much apprehension. The publication of 

 Mayer s papers in Silliman s Journal (vol. xxxvi., p. 261 ; xxxvii., p. 187 ; 

 xxxviii., p. 239, 397) in 1863 and 1864 afforded the writer the first exact 

 basis for conclusions which he had already reached. The later researches 

 of others have served to give a scientific sanction to statements which at 

 one time might have been regarded as little more than vagaries of the im 

 agination. 



NOTE X. , page 404. 



Such, at least, is the generalization put forth by Miincke, Mrs. Somer- 

 ville, and other physicists. It is apparently founded on reports of obser 

 vations made by Scoresby and Parry in the Arctic Ocean, and by James 

 Ross in the Antarctic. M. Charles Martins, however, a highly competent 

 authority, denies that any such increase of temperature in the deeper arc 

 tic waters exists. Nothing of the kind was observed by le Centre- Amiral 

 Coupvent des Bois in the voyage of the corvettes Astrolabe and Zelee ; 

 nor in the soundings made on the two voyages to Spitzbergen with the 

 corvette Recherche.
