4uaIes end Volcanic Eruptions,'' in Which ho
: Chains to have discovered the cauacs Of these
phenomena, and to be hblesto predict tho time
OF their occurrence. He has Btruck upon one
ldea, which is worth testing by scientific men
it is that the perihe1ion and aphelion passages
Of the planetary bodies produce changes IN
the expansion Of the fluid MACS within the
earth's crust, as body is parting continually
with heat during the passage from the perihe-
ion to the Aphclion. and is gaining heat in tina
!, Tier half Of ite orbit. Mr. MansiI supports
lis theory by the col1ocstiou Of great num-
ter CT these phenomena; and noting the
aesida1 passsges which occurred near tbosa
times. It is unfortunate that the autbor
strives vainly to explain certain theo,ie, which
sre pretended TO bo simpliacations of the az
pleasions for natural law, but arc confusion
worse corfounded in his hands. His dissar-
tltioEs on the relations betveeu density and
no!ion will be understood only by tho few
who are entitled to be called philosophers:
