A better idea Of the relative distances and mao.
nitude of the bodies in the solar system than can
be obtained from orreTIes or plunisphereS is pre-
sehted by an astronomical writer, in some ha,
like the following manner: In the centre Of Il
large level plain three miles IN diameter, place a
globe two feet IN diameter, 10 represent the Sun
AT that distance of eighty-two feet from the globe
put grain of mustard seed. TO represent Mercu.
ry, the planet nearest The Sun, which gives it an
orbit toQT hundred and nipety-Iwo feet in circum-
ference. For Venus, take pea, and place it one
hundred and iorty-two feet distance from the
globe, which will give her orbit eight hundred and
hltytwo feet. For The Earth, take also pea ,
and place it two hundred and fifteen feet distant,
which will mike her orbit one thousand TWO hun
dred and ninety feet. For Mars, take a grain of
pearl barley place 1t three hundred and twenty
seven feet distant, and its orbit will be one thou.
sand nine hundred and sixty-two feet. For the
inferior planets, Juno, Ceres, Vesta and PaUas,
take grains Of sand, and allow them orbits varv
ing from one thousand TO one thousand and two
hundred feet. For Jupiter, take a middle sized
orange, and place II about quarter Of a mile dis.
tart which will make its orbit mile and half,
For Saturn, take small orange, place 1t nearly
hal! mile distant, that its orbit NAV be nearly
three miles. Then for the planet HerscheI. take
a full sized cherry or boys marble, and carry il
nearly mile distant, that It's orbit NAV be
Dearv six miles; and having go, these relative
magni;udes and distances and pretty well fixed in
the mind, allow million Of miles in space for
OFery foot Of these distances in the field au6 Won
may form some faint conception of this one of the
innumerabIe solar systems with which The Crea.
