of the horn, as it should appear, if it tep - 
mmated on a narrow verge of an inner 
sphere that could not afford room loi its 
protraction in full. 
4th. The belts of Jupiter (whose poles 
we cannot see} seem to favour the doc¬ 
trine of a plurality of spheres, more or 
less solid. 
5th. The spots on the sun, which have 
the appearance of fractured breaches in 
his outermost sphere, through which an 
inner sphere is seen, favour the theory ;— 
his poles too, must be open, (notwithstand¬ 
ing the slowness of his rotation,) but we 
can never see into them, owing perhaps to 
his being very much larger than the earth, 
and the earth being never very far from 
the plane of the sun’s equator. 
6th. Although the polar axis and equi¬ 
noxes precede , yet the just proportion of 
the flatted poles, are said to continue ; a-s if 
the globe yielded as a soap bubble yields. 
7th. Iron filings sifted on paper, form 
into concentric circlos, on holding a mag¬ 
net under the paper. This concurs with 
the mathematical demonstration laid down 
in my second memoir. Sediment also, in 
a cup or tub of water, sometimes settles 
in concentric circles. 
Other indices of proof, will be added in 
succeeding numbers, showing how the 
migration of fish and quadrupedes (it not 
birds) over and under the poLar ice, north¬ 
ward, in autumn, while poor, and south¬ 
ward, in the spring, when fat, prove my 
new doctrine. 
Man feels that the Deity is great and 
powerful, beyond comprehension :—this 
he is taught by religion and the wonders 
°i creation. So far as this feeling is 
lounded on the excellent and magnificent 
formation of the universe, (if I am right) 
it should be as many times double:!, as 
tnese qualities are shown to be, by each 
planet containing a succession of lesser 
ones, habitable on their inner and outer 
surfaces, either for man or fish, fowl and 
quadrupeds, which are often food fpr
