Dr. R0xnion,s Laclnres


EplroKs GATE Cry - Gentlemen: Are
you willing to admit into your paper .
friendly criticism, upon one Of DR.. Boynton's
statements in his frst lecture? II so, you
viii probably account your correspondent as
sufficiently responsible to the DR.. and to the
public.
Irefcr to the statement made by him, that
oil bodies rotating freely are "predestinated"
TO use his own word) to revolve around their
shortest axes; that fluid bodies would make
and solid bodies .fnd. those axes accordingly.
So far as fluid bodies are concerned, the
law was rightly stated; but the enuncia,ion
with reference to solid bodies cannot be sus-
tanned, and If the Doctor Was misunderstood
/ BY numbers, il is due to himself that he have
an opportunity to set himself right.
The audience understood that the various
experiments with the whirling -gallows, were
relied upon to prove this. But in all those
cases the force was applied to osly one pole,
which, by the laws Of "vis incrtia," received
| its impulse in advance Of the other, and wac,
therefore, eonstratnsd to precede it, The
case is like the applying of lever, at or
near one end of a log, to roll it on q level
surface; that end must advance faster than
the other. None Of these experiments, there
fore, were .sfree," but all constrained. The
truth is, the whirling galiows is q very dccep-
tive instrument. Ii, bv no means. proves
what the uneducated would think that it
very clearly demonstrated.
The spinning Of boys top, around its
longer axis, may, even on the end Of the han
die, ID much more to the purpose, and quite
Incompatible with the Doctors enunciAtiou.
A shaft or s'drum" in q factory 100 feet
long and only Il feet radius, revolves with
perfect ease on its longer axis, showing no
tendency to seek its shorter axis, whatever
force DO appiisd,-if only that force be ap-
piled uniformly. II, however, sufficient
force be applied at one end Of such drum
suddenly, the drum may DO twisted and even
broken, and this is what the experiments
with the whirling -sallows really prove.
A copper, or cent, can be tossed high in
the air, and ,whirled on it's longer axis, exhib-
ting no tendency TO seek its shorter, until II
falls.
A stone, which 'hums' from boys sling,
does the same thing, save a. the atmosphere
gradually intcrferes with it.

q Georgia gentleman under date Of Septem-

Such is the nationality Of Southern Dem

mails never publish such things. The intense
sectonalism which slaveholding politicians
manifest, they never reprobate, never make

The Burlington Gazette Gays that the PEG.
pie OF this city are Shaking in their BOOTS
with very fright at the prospect Of the Bur.
lington and Missouri Kiver Railroad being
fnishcd to Ottumwa within few months
No, gentlemen, our people arc not quaking
very seriously, and they are not so envious
at any project or prospect Of Burlington as
the people Of Burlington are with reference
to Keokuk. We have obtained q position
where We can look with a little more philos-
ophy upon such things. We now have the
lead, and feel a little more complacency than
when we were behind, or than those now do
who, once ahead, have now fallen behind us.
But we have not been blinded by being placed
in the van of progress and prosperity, SO that
we are likely to fall again into the rear. We
propose to retain our position by fair and
manly effort. You have made provision to
build your road to Ottumwa. Well. Build
it. We hope you will. We shall be glad to
see you prosper. Much good may it do you.
But We understand the necessity it puts upon
US Of exciting corresponding effort And
we shall perform our task. Don't hatter
yourselves, gentlemen. We know no such
word as fail, but We do know precisely where
We stand and what we are about. Therefore
We propose to strengthen our own roads, so
that they will be enabled to reach Ottumws
just as soon as you will, aud be Mt Mt. Pleas
ant just in time to give the people along your
own line the advantages Of the Keokuk mar
ket.
Citizens Of Keokuk! You can see by this
shout Of exultation in advance, hou they ex-
pect to make you "shake in your boots. p"
Meet your enemies and envious detractors at
the polls to-day, and settle the question once
for all, by voting the tax, whereby all will
be made pro rata subscribers to our rail-
roads.
