Some meneven of the weakest minus, seem to me t be qualified for different pursuits by Him who made us all, though the following in tcstiiiiuons may embrace some tbingjs of consequence! I hope the weakness of the writer will not prevent you from giving your attention to thfe Chapters which will ap- peir. i !'- ; . TC' OF MOTION. f .. LetETGMC, represent the earth withlts attending: atmosjjherr, revolving around the sun F on its annual orbit PMKNH. and on its diurnal revolution in the same di rection of the annual orbit on the" pole P. We here, in this figure, represent a polar view of he earth, and suppose ourselves. at thenorth pole. The .'received opinion is, tbat' some. original impulse is given the earth ETGMC in the right line direction v PBD ; and that this direction would continue forever, if not resisted by some opposing power. It is supposed that opposing po'wrr is the centripetal power, which carries the earth when at B to R"; .and being at H,' the impulse being the same, the earth would there be disposed to Hyff again in a tangent, to jts orbit in the line HV ; but by the jame opposing centripetal power, it is agnin drawn in its orbit to IV, and by thecoma bination of these forces, the projectile and centripetal 'made to revolve on its' annual orbit. It cannot be denied, that in the path of the annual orbit of the earth around the sun, that in t.hi orbit, repulsion and attraction are equal ; which could not bewell understood how this equilibrium could be retained by any two conflicting and opposite Pers of ag;ercr upon it." I shall hereafter explain. ; The power which would remove the earth from its right lined direction PBD, to the orbit R, must necessarily diminish the projected power by. a much as it is resisted by the centripetal fotce, unless we-suppose there a is constant addition; or generation of ?r5?? c ce; bufupon this ground of ti constant increased projectile power, we make void thethcoiy advanced as being the cause of the motion ; for we are forced to imagine a motion generated, without assigning any cause -of that motion or kn pulse. . ,ailuc cngmai impulse would be di&inished, ,we may see plainly, for the impulse . v., VSrcai or sTnain couW only land the. earth at the centre .-F.'the end of all mo . on, aud the point of rest ; the line FB will then fitly represent the range of initial . Jnipu.se. But if FB is a true representative of the original impulse then BR will be e true measure i f destroys d initial velocity or impulse. And thiis, w.hen the earth .ymtsatR, it cr.nnot incline lofly off in the line RVV ; bat if it was true, it had an a tangent, it would be- in a tan c-ent to me circle tiv : tor it is e to Si- Vs. W1 toR. but BR is equal the diminished initial impulse, aiid with th wmmishtd velocity in its motion from R. it would make the angle NttV, etrual t -Mk 5'e orK-r at'd thus, without some constantly applied and generated force, the Kece t v con"UnS agencies of initial and centripetal force, vould.pss on Jto t ' . the Point of rest, vhich is absurd. Thus, if repulsion is not gthera-ed vy attraction. a,i i-.- , - . i . . e. . santp ti a t.iion repuisir n me inuiai impulse is hoi xorever tne rennU?r C dC5truction of motion will be the consequence: rhe idea of attraction and Biu of ?h':Cperat,"iff 'nj ri.ht,lines independent of intermediate causes, is unfounded, ChavM- i ii cnqairemore particularly in the tollowmg unapters. in the uext yier i snail end&vnr tn : r. ,iii mntirt ' 7 " ". jJaiu iuc uuc tau vi iiig-uiuiiwi uiwhwu given tv llie TREASURY ESTIMATES. t .
