00 LAWS AND DEVELOPMENTS. 



mence their harmonious actions and reactions upon each other, 

 developing a sixth law the law of universal cosmical sympa- 

 thy and reciprocation corresponding to the nervous sympathy 

 and reciprocal action existing between the different organs of 

 the human body, the little universe. 



The seventh and last law and process in this series of uni- 

 versal creations, is that by which planetary masses bodies 

 destined to become ultimately habitable were evolved from 

 the previous solar masses. Of course it is to be supposed 

 that these bodies were produced from the solar masses by evo- 

 lutions of nebulous rings, and by agglomeration of the materials 

 of these, according to principles before explained. This de- 

 velopment completes the fundamental structure of the material 

 universe as suck, and serves as the Basis and material Germ 

 of all subsequent and more refined unfoldings. 



The different stages through which the universal mass of 

 materials have passed, from germinal to ultimate forms, may 

 therefore be summarily represented in the following formula : 



PRIMARY TRINITY. 



1. Heat-pervaded chaos. 



2. Luminous attractive nucleus. 



3. Electro-interactive spheroid. 



SECONDARY TRINITY. 



4. Concentric nebulous rings. 



5. Segregated masses(from rings). 



6. Suns and clusters of suns. 



ULTIMATE

It is true that we can have no final and absolutely sensuous 

 demonstration that such is the structure of the. universe, be- 

 cause the telescope, with all its magic powers, has probably 

 revealed, as it were, but an infinitesimal fragment of the great 

 united System. Yet, considering that the telescope has expli- 

 citly revealed that the same laws of gravitation and revolution- 

 ary motion which apply to our own planetary worlds, apply
