The aravItation' Theory.

In one of his lectures before the Low
ell Institute, Boston, recently Professor
G. f. Wright combated the supposition
that the conclusions Of modern physical
science arc free from difficulties and
clear of all doubt. Instead of such be-
ing the case science, he declares, is lead
ing deeper and deeper into mysteries
and substituting instead of single mys-
teries an ever increasing multitude for
each one. &. Ho instanced i'll illustration
the Newtonian theory of gravitation as
involving paradoXes to this day unex-
planned, arguing that if bodies act up
on each other at distance without any
intervening medium then thing can
act where it is not, which is an absurd
ity, while, on the other hand, IF there
is material medium filling all space,
and gravity is transmitted through
that by push rather than by pull,
then the transmission ought to occupy
some appreciable time, but this it does
not do, and at any rate, if it's action il
not absolutely Instantaneous, it's veloci-
ty must be at least fifty million times
greater than that of light. Moreover,
every effort to represent gravitation as
the result Of push from behind in
wolves absurdities of various kinds. In
fact, Newton's final conclusion was that
the philosophy Of gravitation is abso-
lutely Uncomfortable and it's action para
doxical.
