moment of #”t” round AH 
= R"t" cos R”U" sin NU" R”. 
And for the refracted ray, 
moment of R’t’ round AH 
= AR’x R’t'cos R'U'sin NU'R'. 
But we have 
AR! AW sin NW 
~ cos WR’ cos WR’ sin NR’ 
and, therefore, the moment is 
— es cos R’U'sin NU'R’. 
And the vibrations Rt, Rt”, Rt’, as before, are as 
sn R’LR':sn RLR': sn RLR’, 
whence the equation given by the principle of equivalent mo- 
ments is precisely that of Theorem 11.”

Mr. M. Donovan exhibited and described a moveable ho- 
rizontal sun-dial, invented by himself, which shows apparent 
solar time within a small fraction of a minute.
