THE FUEL OF THE SUN.

8 vo., Cloth , Price 7 s. 6 d. 
The Author endeavours to demonstrate that the atmosphere o our earth is 
but a portion of the universal medium of space which the earth has accumu- 
lated by its gravitation. The atmosphere of the Sun is calculated on this 
basis and it is shown that the original evolution of solar light and heat is a 
necessary consequence of the atmospheric accumulation due to his gravitation. 
A continual supply of fresh solar fuel is further shown to result front the 
combined adion of planetary disturbance and the Sun’s motion of translation , 
and thus both the origin and the maintenance of solar and stellar heat and 
°A11 a th^ X (le tails of photospheric phenomena,— the spots, the faculae, the 
mottling “granulations,” &c., &c., follow as incidental l consequences ; as also 
the prominences, the corona, the zodiacal light, and the zones of meteors and 
^Theatmo spheres of the planets are calculated on the same basis ; and this 
reveals a consistent explanation of the observed meteorology of the inferior 
planets, the surface phenomena and specific gravity of the supeuor planets, and 
th The phenomena" of the nebulas are shown to be necessary results of the 
atmospheric accumulations of certain modifications of star clusters, or great 
solar systems ; and an explanation of the connexion between solar phenomena
