VARIATION OF THE MAGNETIC
NEEDLE.


We are permitted TO publish the follow
ing recent communication Of Professor
Williams 10 the Governor, on The subject
Of The magntic needle:
COLUMBIA. December 6. 1919.
Mr. DEAR SIR: In May last COM
municaIed 10 your Excellency the vhria-
lion, in This place, Of the Masenlic Need
lie.
The mean of all the observations since
made shows declinalinn of deg. 81
min. 81 sec. These observations were
made with the Theodplile of The College.
This Theodorile was not purchased for a
declinometer. il answ ers very well 10
explain The method Of measuring the hor-
izonlal and vertical angles, but cannon he
relied upon for minute accuracy in de,ec-
ting aud apprecialins slighl variations oil
the needle. One Of The practical objects
in establishing here and elsewhere in The
State true mcridians, was 10 furnish SUR
veyora with The destination, which being
entered upon their plos, might serve 10
perpe!uate the bounding lines Of the SUI
veys. These lines are always determined
by The angle, made with The magnetic,
and not the true meridian. The mean ol
many observations made even with so un.
suitable an instrument rs the College
Theodorile, will Approximate The truth
sufficiently near 10 secure this valuable
Object, for surveyors rarely pretend, in
ordinary surveys, 10 greater accuracy than
Is min. or The fourth of a degree.
From the published reports Of the U. S.
Observatory, al Washington city, many
curious and interesting maenerical stu.
tistics may be derived. The observations
were made with the finest Instruments,
adjusted with The greatest care. aud the
result recorded a. intervals two hours
throughout lhe ,wenty-fuur, for every day
in The year. The vnlume befDre me. for
which am indebted To The Hon. A. Burt,
embraces period Of three years. funnins
through 1910. 1871 and 1912. From these
repors The following facts are clearly es-
ta5lshed.
!. No two consective observations show
the same portion Of The magnet.

PLANK RoADs.-We are glad 10 per.
ceive that in some sections Of our State,
the importance Of these roads is beginning
to he felt. Experience thus far in other
States has proven thar such enterprises
are not only valuable as highways for
traffic, bu, lha, they are also profitable in.
vestmenls. Where circumstances prevent
The construction Of rallruarls between
towns and villages, they will be found ia
persen' the mnst acceptable means Of trans
pOrlatinn that can be had.
As adjuncrs to the prosperity Of our rail-
roads, they will especially be found valua-
hlc--in fact, wherever they penetrate, it is
near y as good as tho extension Of railroads.
aud will be powerful means of developing
the resources Of our upper districts, and
giving to The farmers and planters, easy
end cheap transportation 10 our principal
markets. Timber isabundan,ly scattered
almost in every section Of the Stale. and
The experiment once, wo feel convienced
that these roads will be found connecting
towns and villages and inersec'ing our va.
rious railways.
Would It not be wise for The Legislature
TO afford that measure Of aid in hese pub.
lie enterprises which they have herepfore
profIered and extended To other enterprises
Of similar character, upon certain con.
diIion being fulfilled. We know Of no
surer mode Of beneliuiug The people of
the whole State, than by aiding them tn
procure such facilities of transportation
for their products as will enable them Ia
seek the best markets. We noiced in The
proceedings Of the House some petitions
for Incorporating companies FOR the coll
sIructiou Of these roads. and we would be-
glad to isee them furlhcred on, believing
that their value to onr country friends can.
not be estimated until experiment has been

The West -OhiO-PrOgresS.

Fredrick Won Raumer,a professor OF his.
tory in the University of Berlin, visited
this country in 1884, and wrote work on
"Amerca and the American People."-
The work has gained much celebrity nnc
praise for its ability and candor. Speak
ing of Ohio, he says:
ssNature and mind form in the Western
States Of America rare, | may say n
ique combination; and among them Ohio
takes the lead. Her mission is to esana-
sne impartiolly the great social problems
and controversies of the confederate
States, to test them fairly, land thus to guide
and govern the rest 1t may be doubted
whether the grand republicanism of the
South must not be disturbed by slavery
and whether in the East there may not
spring up by the side of the cultivated clas
ses dangerous city populace; but in Ohio
we see only youth, vigor, health, progress
and improving prospects in all directions. ;
Has not Ohio already entered on the
mission pointed out for her by the German
Professor? We think she has, and tha
she will be true 10 it.
