"If il were possible to drill hole or
foot or more In diameter entirely through
the earth and then TO start ball weigh
Ing 10 pounds or more to railing through

Answer: Weight, i'm the sense that w.
J. NJ" refers to IL. ia the measure oil
attraction Of gravitatOn; or, In other
words. IL Is the measure Of force WIN
which body is attracted by the earth.
This attractive force decreases both ways
from the surface of the earth-both out

the globes supposed molten centr". In
partial explanation Of this assertion

whatever. will weigh less on the up OF

In order To be exact in this matter

Official Speech-Naking.

There was rarely anything national III

yas an easy task-a sufficiently warm de-
nunclation OF Abolition, Free-Soiers' anu
