The rings of Saturn have always beer
an enigma to astronomers. La Place
showed that if they were solid, and of the
same thickness throughout, they would
soon fall down on the planet and be
destroyed. He therefore supposed them
of irregulay density. Not many years
ago, Professor Pierce found that the
same catastrophe would occur even In
this case, and he and Bond have eonclu-
ded that they are fluid. 1t soon became
doubtful whether a fluid ring would be
anv more stable. and Prof Pierce hence
conceived the idea that it was held up by
the attractions of the satellites. Mr.. Hirn
a French physicist. has lately presented
q naner to the French Academy, in
which be maintains that the ring is
neither solid nor fluid but is swarm of
small particles, which looks solid owing
10 the great distance at which we see it
The idea is not new, as it was developed
Mechanically more than ten years ago
BY Mr.. j. c. Maxwell, of Englan J :. but
Mr.. Hirn adduces some new arguments
10 its support. One Of these is, that
when the ring is seen on its dark side,
which is presented to us on very rare
occasions, it does not seem absolutely
