The GYROsCOPE PARoDOx-A CANADIAN
SoLUTIoN.-lt will be interesting to men of
science, who have been perplexed with the
philosophical anomalies of this strange iustru-
ment, to learn that Mr. McCarrolI, Of this city.
Surveyor of Customs is said on high au-
thority, to have thrown great light upon this
aostruse paradox, ifnot to have solved the deep
problem to Its fullest extent in fact, there is
said to be no doubt whatever of the correctness
OF the leading features of Mr. McCarrolrs
theory. He shows that the ring and wheel re-
main suspended so singularly on one side Of the
upright from the fact that the resistance of the
centrifugal force of the wheel to any alteration
IN the plain Of its motion is greater than the
force e1erted by gravity towards makinx it alter
that plane. And as to the ring revolving
round the point of the upright, In direction
contrary TO that OF the rotation of the wheel,
ne asserts that wheel in motion does moi
impings on the same point of the axis that il
rests on when in a state Of repOse
FOR instance, =" he observes when vertical
wheel Is set in motion ons-half Of the body is act
ing In opposition TO the laws OF gravity, and the
other half falling down, % TO speak, in the line
OF grsvitation-hence the unequal discharge of
forces on the aka. On one We have gravity
minus velocity, and on the other we have
gravity plus velocity. In so far, then. ma the
emu on the axis Is to be considered, the point of
the heaviest impingement will be found ON the
plus side of the wheel This being the case the
ring, which Is free to obey any impulse given in
lis own plane, must necessarily retire before an
excess OF force exerted on the plus side Of the
axis of the wheel"
ms appears simple enough as laid down
mere: How strange if il should be the correct
solution OF problem that has puzzled the
selentnc OF both hemispheres Toronto GIo5,
