Wednesday, December• 10, 1856 Our New IVIIII We say our new mill, because if there is any one thing in which every citizen has special interest, it is the mill—therefore, we say our new mill. It is now in running order at last. We were through it on Mon tlay last from the roof to the water wheels, and to our notion a better mill, or as good, will be hard to find. Messrs. Fisher & MeMurtrie, six months ago, pulled down that old rat hole, the town mill, and now in its place stands an entire new structure, with a beautiful exterior, and with all the improvements of the age in its internal machinery and economy. They have five of the Jouval Water Wheels—four to drive, five run of stones, and one to drive the machinery and smutter. Grain can now be ground at sight. Farmers can come in with a load of grain and can take the flour home the same trip. The chopping stones will chop twenty bushels to the hour. No high water will stop the wheels in use, and neither dry nor cold weather will stop the mill. It is just the thing—farmers bring in your grain and try our new mill. q--Life is a romance which most young ladies would like to begin, by reading the ,bird volume first, as it is the one which gen contains the marriages.

[Published by a resolution adopted at the last meeting of the Huntingdon county Agricultural Society.] To the President and _Members of the Agricultural Society of Huntingdon County: The undersigned Committee, to whom was referred the subject of Lunar hillueeces on Agriculture, Respectfully Report, That, deetniug, the subject one of great importance to the farming mannemity, your committee have endeav ored to give it that degree of attention which its import ance merits. When it is remembered that at least two thirds of all the persons, engaged ha Agriculture and Horticulture, as well as many of those who pursue mechanical avocations, regulate all their operations by the " signs" or position of the moon in the zodiacal constellations, or its place in re gard to its own and the earth's orbit, it will at once be ap parent that it is a matter of great importance whether there is any philosophy or science in this system of Moon °logy or whether it is but superstition and folly. When you ask the believers in lunar influences upon vegetation, in the sense above indicated, for the reason for the faith iet is in them, they refer you to the alumnae, and there you may contemplate the figure of a man with outstretched 'intim, surrounded by the ram, the bull, the twins, the crab and other animals of various degrees of ferocity, but the rationale they cannot give, for the alma nac gives it not; but-their ancestors from time immemo rial looked to the " signs" and regulated their operations by them, and therefore, they, their sons and daughters go un iu the sante beaten track, in "blissful ignorance" whither it leads or why they go therein. Your Committee believe tint aeide front the effects pro duced by the solar light which is reflected upon the earth by the moon she has no influence whatever upon vegeta tion. That light, as well as beat and moisture are indis pensable to beautiful vegetable growth, is a filet too plain to be denied or successfully controverted. And that the increased (and perhaps the quality of) light reflected from the moon when her whole disk or a considerable part of it which is turned towards the earth is enlightened by the sun, has the effect of accelerating vegetable growth and the ripening of crops, are well attested by experience and in perfect accordance with natural philosophy. But this has nothing to do with the signs. The moon being nearer to the earth than any other ce lestial body, and surpassed in splendor only by the great orb of day, she has excited the attention of astronomers in all ages. 'While her magnitude, motions and distance from the earth have been nicely calculated and made known to us by astronomers and mathematicians, they have told us nothing concerning her influence upon vegetation; and this simply, because they, in all their close observations and I nice calculations, have never discovered any such influence. The moon, like other satellites and the planets, is an opaque body, and shines entirely by the light received from the sun. Site revolves round her axis from the sun to the sun again Da days, 32. hours, 4-I minutes and 3 seconds, and she takes exactly the sante tints to go around her orbit from new moon to new moon, and therefore constantly has the same side turned towards the earth, with a small variation called the libration of the moon. The nwon's phases. The sun illuminates one half of the moon at all times; and the amount. of light which is re flected depends upon the relative position of the observer and the enlightened part of the moon. Thus, at the time of conjunction or new moon, the moon is between the earth and the sun, and that part of her dice' which is never seen from the earth is fully enlightened by the sun, and that part which is turned towards the earth is in darkness. Now, as the motion of the moon in her orbit' exceeds the apparent motion of the sun by a little over twelve degrees in twenty-four hours, it follows that about four days after the new moon she will be seen a little east of the sun after he has sunk below the horizon. The convex part of the moon will be towards the place of the sun, and the horns towards the left hand. As site continues her course east ward a greater portion of her face towards the earth will become enlightened; and when she has removed ninety degrees eastward of the sun she will present the appear ance of a semi-circle or half moon. And passing still to wards the east, at the end of 11 , Y 4 '. days, she will be diamet rically opposite to the sun and will rise above the eastern horizon as the sun sinks behind the western, a complete circle or full moon. The earth is now between the sun and the moon, and that half of her surface which is constantly turned towards the earth is wholly enlightened by the di rect rays of the sun, and that half which is never seen front the earth is in Muteness. Then, progressing still to the eastward, the 1110011 becomes deficient on her western edge, and when again ninety degrees from the sun, she ap pears a semicircle with the convex side turned towards the sun; still continuing her course eastward, the deficiency on her western edge becomes greater, and she appears a crescent with the convex side towards the east; and in about 14 . 34 days more she has made a complete lunation and agam overtaken the sun. This shows all the phases of the moon, and the manner in which they are produced; and to our minds it is very apparent that these changes or appearances which are constantly and gradually taking, plate. can have no other effects titan those produced by M ere:teed or diminished light. Nodes el the moan, ca. the " up" and the "clown" signs.— The nodes are the two opposite points where the orbit of the moon seems to intersect the ecliptic or the apparent pat It of the earth. But this intersection is merely imagi nary, the earth moving around the sun at a distance of 9:5,- temenio of miles, and the moon around the earth at a dis tance of 240,000 miles, or less than a quarter of a million of miles. The orbit of the moon is inclined to that or the earth at a variable angle, the 111011i1.1111 of which is 5° 9`.— The nodes make a complete retrogi ado rovolution from any point of the ecliptic to the same again in /9 years.— This is called the cycle of the moon, after which the new and the full moons &c. fall upon the same days of the month that they did at the beginning of the period. if the weather depended upon the changes of the moon, every nineteenth year would have the same sort of weather at all carresponding seasons. An almanac nineteen years old would suit for this year and inform us of all the changes of the moon and the consequent changes of the weather. But this is at slight digression. The node where the moon seems to ascend from the south to the north side of the ecliptic is called the ascend ing node, and the almanacs make it the 4 • up sign ;" and the opposite point where the moon appears to descend from the north to the south is called the descending node —the down sign. In astronomy these nodes are some called the north node and the south node, and some times the dragon's head and the dragon's tail. If we take two large rings of nearly equal size and place I the ono within the other so that the one half of the one will be above and the other half below the other ring, at an angle of about five degrees, the one rims ' will represent the orbit of the earth and the other that of the moon.— The two points of intersection are the nodes. The earth revolves around one of these rings or orbits annually and the moon around the other monthly. When the moon, passing around her orbit, crosses the point of intersection, (ur an imaginary line drawn from the one point of inter section to the other) from the south to the north side of the ecliptic, she is in the ascending, node—in the "up sign,"—and when she reaches the opposite point she is in the descending node—the "down siert." The moon is therefime continually alternating front the one node to the other ' being about one half the time above and the other half below the orbit of the earth; but in reality all the time millions of MHOS from the one side or the other of the earth's orbit. Now, if any one can suppose that the attraction of the moon can' draw up or press down objects upon the earth, such its roofs of buildings, fences:, flax or manure spread, joi e that effect must be apparent - in about two weeks, fur that is the length of time that the moon continues in each of thew signs. "After that time, the attraction still exist ing, there would be an alternate drawing up and pressing down as long as the moon shall wax and wane. Tice be in the signs have never yet discovered how soon the selects of the moon upon objects afflicted become visible; but they do not generally look tar those effects as b 001) as the moon has passed front the one sign into the other. Tice zodiacal signs. The zodiac is a broad circle in the heavens, extending in breadth front the tropic of mimic:ern to the tropic of cancer. It is about sixteen degrees in width. The ecliptic is situated in the middle of the zodiac. The zodiac contains the twelve constellations or signs through which the sun passes in his apparent annual course. This circle is supposed to be di t ideal into 360 equal parts, called degrees, and these again into minutes and seconds. The prevalent opinion among learned men is, that the figures in the signs or constellations of the zodiac, are des criptive of the seasons of the year, and that they are hiero gliphics to represent some remarkable event or occur- rence in each month. Thus, no productions being more useful to the Chahleans, than lambs, calves and kids, and they generally being brought forth in the spring of the year, these distinguished that season. Their flocks were increased, and the ram was considered a fit representation of the month in which this occurred. Their herds were increased and the bull became emblematical of this. And the goats beins , . ' the most prolific, they were represented by the figure of the twins. Thus we have Aries, the ram, Taurus, the bull, and Gemini, the twins, as the represen tatives of the spring of the year—the figures of the spring signs. When the sun enters the constellation of Cancer, he discontinues his progress towards the north pole, and begins to move back towards the south pole, and this ret rograde motion is represented by the crab, which travels backwards. The heat which usually follows in the next month, (July,) is represented the Lion, an anhnal re markable for its fierceness, and which, at this season of the year, was frequently impelled by thirst, to leave the sandy desert, and make its appearance on the banks of the Nile. In the next month. harvest commences in that coun try, and as damsels are generally set to glean in the fields, like Ruth in the field of Boaz. this season is represented by a Virgin holding a sheaf of wheat in her hand. The sun next enters Libra,. at which time the days and nights are equal, and observe an equilibrium, like a Balance. So we have the Lion, the 'Virgin, and the Balance for the stuniner signs. Autunm, in ancient times, produced an abundance of fruit, (pet haps of inferior quality,) and brought with it a variety of diseases. This season is there fore represented by the Scorpion, which wounds with a sting in his tail as he recedes. The sun enters the next constellation at the fall of the leaf, when the fields are cleared of the crops, and the season for hunting commen ces. The stars which mark the sun's track in this month, are represented by the huntsman or Archer, with his bow and arrows and other weapons of destruction. The slim passing into the next constellation, reaches the winter sol stice, and commences ascending towards the north. This season is therefore represented by the wild Goat, which delights in .climbing and ascending the mountain in search of his food, which was considered emblezuntical of the as cent of the sun. The next sign, Aquarius, the water-bear er, pouring'water out of an urn, is emblematical of the wet, dreary, and uncomfortable season of winter. The last of the zodiacal signs is a couple of Fishes, represent, tug the fishing season. In the time of the oldest astronomers, the equinoctial points were in Aries and Libra; but_the signs which were then in' conjunction with the sun, when ho was in-the equinox, are now - 30 degrees, or a whole sign eastward of it ; so that Aries ks now in Taurus, Taurus - in Gemini, &c. The signs aro the invention of the ancients, and like that system of fables styled mythology, they had their origin in superstitious and idolatrous notions. The Chal deans probably, are entitled to the credit, such as it is, of imagining that certain groups of stars resembled certain animals, such as the bear, the dog, the serpent, &c., and the Egyptians worshipped the host of heaven under the most of these imaginary figures, particularly the signs of the zodiac. They also worshipped the sun under the name of Osiris, imagining it a proper representative of the Dei ty., shedding light and heat over the universe. And as the moon received her light from the sun, she was esteemed a female divinity, and honors were paid her, as such, under the name of Lie. The overflowing of the Nile, which oc curred periodically, was particularly beneficial to the land of Egypt, and as that river always began to swell at the rising of Sirius, the most brilliant of the fixed stars, they had a special veneration for the (log star, as if its influence had brought about tho overflow of the Nilo, and the con sequent fertility of the toil. The Greeks displaced some of the figures of the Chalde an constellations, and placed in their stead such images as had reference to their own history. The same thing was done by the Romans; and hence, some of the accounts given of the signs of the zodiac and of the constellations. are contradictory and involved in fitble. Such is the history of the signs Of the zodiac in a con densed form. These constellations and signs were clus ters of stars which marked the position of the sun in the heavens, and were called the "station houses" of the sun.; They are twelve in number, containing each 30 degrees, and the sun was about a month in passing through each of them. When we consider that in the days of their origin, chronometers and almanacs had no existence, and astrono my was in its infancy, we cannot but admire the beauty of the system as well as appreciate its utility. It made a magnificent time piece of the star spangled canopy, and the hosts of heaven pointed out the length of days. months and years. What a perversion it is, then, to make these signs or constellations the “station houses" of the moon as she passes around the earth. It converts them into food for superstition and ignorance, and they carry with them a train of inconveniences. The moon's transit through the signs is rapid, occupying but a little over two days in each, and the almanac makers place her in one sign two days or three days as best suits their convenience, without regard to fractious of days. Ifer example : the sign is in the Crab for two or three days, according to the almanac, and although the weather may be fine, and the field in excellent order, the farmer who consults the moon will not sow or plant in that inaus picious sign. Or the sign is in Virgo, sometimes called the " Posey Girl," and everything then sown or planted. will expend all its energy in blossoms, on account of that girl's propensity for flowers. And equally good logic is employ ed in behalf of all the other signs. What folly! The believer in moonology will no doubt be gratified to learn that when the moon's position is between the earth and any of the zodiacal signs, the stars composing that sign arc so immensely far from both the earth and the moon, that they cannot possibly have any influence what ever, upon the earth or any of the operations of the in habitants of the earth! The fixed stars nearest the earth are at an inconceivable distance. It may be stated to be inure than twenty billions of miles; but the common mind can form no adequate conception of such distance. We may acquire some faint idea of the immense distance of the nearest of the fixed stars from the earth, by considering that the sun is 95,000,000 of miles from the earth, and that the nearest of the fixed stars is 212,000 times farther dis tant. A cannon ball flying with a uniform velocity, 500 miles every hour, would require four millions and five hundred and ninety-five thousand years before it could move from one of those stars to the earth ; and the differ ent stars of the same constellations may be at still greater distances from each other. Such immensity of space is bewildering- to the ordinary mind ; but these considerations show plainly that the moon's position in regard to any of the constellations, can have no influence upon the earth, which is but as an atom in the universe. In conclusion, your committee would state that , the facts embodied in this report, are such as are agreed upon by as tronomers and mathematicians—such as arc found in the lessons intended fur the schools; but your committee do not expect this' report to meet with much favor from a large portion of the community. Indeed, truth is never more unpalatable, than when she brushes away from the mind, a long cherished fallacy, and exposes error in all its naked deformity. Many will not believe that they have all their lives been in error. They cannot make up their minds to surrender their whole stock of "knowledge."— They will hold on to their blind faith, and continue to reg ulate their labors and their lives by the signs. But we trust there are others in whom the presentation of well established truth—matters-of-fact and of calculation and observation, will awaken reflection—that they will see the folly and superstition of the signs, and be ready to follow the teachings of reason. The scriptures speak of husband ry—of plowing, digging, manuring—of planting and sow ing—and of the early and the latter rain—but not a word of any signs to regulate the husbandman in any of his la bors And Solomon, who was esteemed a wise man in his day, was entirely ignorant of the signs which some of our modern Solomons understand so well, for he is profoundly silent on the subject, although ho says. "In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand, for thou knowest not which will prosper, either this or that; Sec." Is it not time that the agriculturist should emerge froM the superstition which has so long enveloped him, and follow the advice of Solomon, instead of tibe de vices of the Egyptians and Chaldeans? Facts and arguments might be adduced to show that all the effects attributed to the influence of the moon, could be accounted for, on truly philosophical and scientific prin ciples, but they would swell this report, which is already sufliciently extended, beyond endurable bounds, and we therefore forbear. . , All which is respectfully submitted.
