CASH AO.UNnT Ill'SH, We will new piss ou le a statcment of a low dillicultles which we leund In reading the demonstration of l'rep vtIL of a new book that is te appear. The llrst and chief dllllculty Is te see what would be gained even if the published preposition were correct If the law that the particles of matter which compose the heavenly beJIes was nlse found le be true ter n body moving tn a clrcle acted ou by another body atiywhore within the circle; it would net then fellow that the eccentric circle was the true erbif. NoiUier would tlie demonstration tint Nuwten was wrong in his corresponding preposition help it any. Ner would ttie correctness of New ton's preposition showing that In the circle with the lentre of attraction out of tlie centre el the circle a dillerent 1 iw et attraction pre vails prevcnllt from being itaeti as an orbit, If nature wero se (institute I. That Is, the law nf attraction Is nole! any Impertance for Hi Is (luesiien Mm u ll is a tliterultcal cenclu leii Irem Knew n or measured loruiseforbils. The question ought te Ui new, as it was w ith Kepler, what form nf orbit will ls3st repre sent the plaeesef the planets and comets. The answer is thalone of the conic sections, the elllw(i, the parabola or the hyperbola, with the contreot attraction In the locus, will d se , and then Nen ten took up the inductive com lusien of Kepler and demonstrated that there most lieseinetlilng el the nature of an attrii'tlen valuing directly as the product el the masses and inversely as the square of the distances between the putlcles of the bodies. II Kepler or any ether man had shown the fai i that planets or comets describe circles w llh the centre of attra 'Hen any wliere within the circle, thou Newton's conclusion is that llm force of attrsi Hen varies as the cube eTa t erUln vhurd In tlie circle unit liiversely as quaroet ihu radius vis-ter. If it had been leund that the Mth was all ellipse with the centre of attraction in the centre the law nf force would Imi diree'ly as the distance. If the bum or the mint were what is called the equiangular -p ral, the law would boinvorse beinvorse boinverse I) as the ni' e tlie distance. If the orbit were the l.iniii-eate of lb riietiilll, then the mw iiii be inversely as tbe seventh power el the diutncnud se en down the scale. In a word the in.vtliem iticians have foretold what thu laws el attraction would have te be ifthe creator had chesen dillereut curves along which le send the worlds around the sun. WIIAI MINI UK SHOWN. It therefore neenis te us that the preper thing te de is te show that the circular orbit, with the sun out et tlie centre, represents the places el the planets or comets better than the conic sections. II this could be conclusively shown then the circle would take the place of the conic sections regardless of the conse quent law el attraction. It Is true thore may boa direct verllUvitlnii of the law of the in verse square derived from the torsion bal ance experiment of C ivendish, or possibly by means of pendulum experiments ; but if all the astronomical observations nre net trust worthy, these physical measurements may be equally doubtful and the Ian- might as well la) thu inverse cube el the distance, or almost anything ele, as the Inverse square Taking things as they nre we cannot bee why It should be necessary le conclude Irem a fallacy In Newton's work, II thore was ene, or the discovery of a new proK)sltIen thatthe orbits are circular when nil measurements have shown them te be ene of the conle sec tions The argument runs the ether way. Measurements show that the conic sections nre the true orbits mid with tills lact bofero them mathematicians have concluded that the law et attraction of the Inverse square lollews theoretically. Therefore tlie llrst tiling neeessiry te show that these old masters were all wrong Is te preve by a com cem com pilalieu el observations that the predicted places el the hea only bodies will coincide mnre nearly Willi the apparent places ac cording te tlie new theory than according te the old. This kind ei work will de mero te establish a new lerm et orbit than thousands of pages of theory old or new. ANerin:ii wrncTi.iY audit iiii: nkw riiueiiY. Then comes another dllllculty about the position taken by the ndvocate of the new erblL If the measurements of all kinds are w reng, or at best net sulllclently exact, what then Is te be lined te verify the correctness of the circular orbit with the sun out of the con cen con tre ? Neither does it help the matter te hay that aatrnnoiners cannot declde lietwoen the thousandth partula degree of the parabolic, and circular arc. What if they cannot dobe? They have even In the orbit el comets at limes ns many as a hundred degroesef orbit te declde upon and take their inoasiireinonts ; and in the case of the planets the whole cir cle. Then comes the quotation Iretu Ilurrltt, hurled at us in a former issue about astrono mers net being always able te declde between the very long ellipse, the parabola or tlie hy hy IHirbela. This is nothing new, but what does it Help the circular orbit 7 The lact that astronomers ciunet alwavs decide botween me turue conic sections wnore the one passes giadually Inte the ether is no evidence that the bodies tlioreforo move in a ligure, the clrcle, which Is at the ether oxtreme whero the eccentricity Is zero. It Is true, itis some times dllllcult te decide between these threo extreme cases el the ellipse et eccentricity very nearly equal te unity, the parabola, whose eccentricity is unity, and tlie hyper bola of small eccentricity, or but a little greater than unity ; hut It Is an easy matter te decide botween these and the clrcle, whose eccentricity Is zero. In hid thore Is eulv ene conclusion te be reached, mid that is what was contained in the very llrst opinion ex pressed, viz : That if orbits wero circular with the sun In or out of the centre, this fact would have been revealed by the many very a-curate observations mid measurements long age, since the prodlctecl places could net agi ee as closely us they de with the ob served places.

H'fryarc is true if arc is given in linear units, but JirXare (arc in linear units) is net equal te r sin of same arc changed te corresponding arc in degree measure, wIih.Ii is the way it is used when the sine of an arc is taken. This also is the way it is used in the substitution in the proiesition. Ner does it help the matter if the arc be given in circular measure or radians. We mean that this part is net even approximately true. The error can here again be illustrated by using numbers. Sup pose r-- 10 and the angle one degree. It de:s net mike it any tatter te take it smaller. The area of a ccter of one degree te a radius of ten is 10011 1 i -5'4 --or about 3&s by formula 'jrare. By formula 'At sin 1 it is 5 sin i' 0S13 or about , about a tenth of the hrd re.ult. This 5 ought te suggest the eerrecti-m re niircd te ','r arc - ir sin. Lastly the area II of the sector used, even ifthe formula were correct, Is net constant. Thearea II, bs dellned by the formula given, Is an element et the clrcle descrllied by IS around S as a centre which Is net constant It does net help It any te call PH radius vec tor. The value of H Is computed as U the radius I'.S described a circle around S as a centre, Htid net the clrcle which has its cen cen teo at II. Thore is no account taken of the fact that r varies In getting the value of II. The elementary area that la constant is that Included by I'.S. HA and arc A 1 described by radius Pit. That Is, II Is larger than the constant area by the part Included between arc lA. the arc that would be docrlbed by radius I'.S and the prolongation of HA until It meets arc of P.S, a quantity which is varia ble, and alce one that cannot be neglected In comparison with 11, hewever small II may be taken, since It Is a quantity of the same order. The errer lu this resKct would ap ap ear mero fully if H were taken nearer te the point A of the ligure. We will pass ever the assertion thatthe author ei this preposition claims te be able te point out Sir Isnae Newton's mistake in the cerresisnidlng proiesltlon in the l'rln clpla, since we are i.et supposed te knew in ndvance what that mistake is. If, hewever, that Imagined error should happen te get into the newspnpers we will also have, In all probability, seme dilllculty in seeing just hew New ten Is wrong. K. Schell Observatory In V. A M.

The ancestor of the .Stewart family was a .Scotch-Irish Prosbyte rlan, aud settled along the loll bank el the Susquehanna river, upiu land new occupied lu part by thu eastern half of the borough of Marietta mid the laud en the east slde of It, lu the year 1717, He then had a family of chlldren, soveral el whom were grown te manhood and womanhood. In that or the following year he was appointed a Justlce el the poace for Uonestoga township, the weslern part of which was called Denegal In 172i This fact places him In the front rank of the settlers In Denegal ; for none but tbe most prominent and best qualllled evor recolved a commission el the ihmce In Provincial times. Soveral years prier te his settlement thore came a number of .Scotch-1 rish I'rcsbyterlans te that neighborhood. I'pen the west slde Rebert Wllklnsand liis son Themas took up sovernl hundred acres, which Included the Andor Ander son and I.owrey farms, both of which are owned by Cel. .fames Dully. (The Wllklns, of Pittsburg, came from this lamily.) MAUI! HIS OWN IlltKR. Upen the north and nertheast wero Jehn (ialbralth, who built a grist mill at Meeting HeiiHO run In 1717 upon land new ewned by Jehn Herner, esq. In 172d he convertod the barley raised In the neighborhood Inte beer, and also kept an " ordinary " In the little stene building standing en the east side of the turnpike and near the rut). James Mit chell, esq., owned the land adjoining Gal braitu's and Stewart's. He was a land sur veyor and also a JiiBtice of tlie peace. He was ene et the threo who surveyed Sprlug-gets-bury Maner In 1722. Seuth of Mitchell's and adjoining Stewart's en the east was Petor Allen, Indian trader, who settled along M. II. run In 1710. This farm Is new ewned by Mrs. James Myers. In the fall of 1720 Hev. James Andersen sottled In Dono Deno Done gal, and purchased the Alien larm. In the year 1727 he traded this farm for ene owned by William Wllklnsand given him by his father, Kebort. The westeru half of Marietta Is built upon this land. Some curious com plications grew out of the Alten lands, which ended In litigation In the courts which lasted many years. William Wllklns died In 1731, and In the following year Natbanlel Idttlo(Lytle), who owned a few acres adjoining and was em ployed by Wilkin", married his widow. Wllklns left several children, and by her second husband, hytle, Mrs. I had a son, Jehn Lytic. Lytle undertook te convey this land te bis son Jehn by will In 1713. His widow also leined a conveyance te her son Jehn. The Wllklns children, who then lived In Peters township, Cumberland county, with their uncle, brought suit te re cover this laud. Alter thirty years of litiga tion they Bticceeded, and their half brother was compelled te pay them. The legislature enacted a law te cnable Lytle te convey te Mr. Hershey In li , 1. Seuth of the Alien tract and extending te the river, and between the Stewart land and Chlckies creek, Mr. Gardner, or New Jersey, took up six hundred acres In 1715. Captain Themas Hwiug, the father of General James Hwlng, purchased this land In 1737, '3S aud '39. These wero the neighbors of the Stew-art-s. uKeiiui: sunvAUT. Wheu the county was organized In 17.10 Geerge Stewart was chosen a county com missioner, and In October, 1730, he was elected te the general assembly, and In 1732 he was again elected. Ily common content the Denegal settlement was conceded ene momljer of assembly. At this last election Andrew (ialbralth, esq., was also a candi date, and alter ene of the most oxcitiugcan excitiugcan oxcitiugcan vasses ever known lu Provincial times he was elected ; deleatlug Jehn Wright, eq., by three votes. The two ethor members ler that year were Samuel Hluusteii, esq , of Hemptleld, and Themas lMwards, esq , who reslded a tnile north or the lilue Hall, in Karl township. When the legislature was in sessien Geerge Stewart died in January, 171, In the prime of manhood, leaving a widow, Jam, aud the following named children : 1, Jehn ; 2, Janies ; J, KHzsbeth ; I, Trances ; 5, Msry.

Jehn married Ann, daughter et the Hev. James Andersen. In 171s he sold ene hundred and lllty acres oil the eastern part et his farm te David Cook, who is said te have also married into the Stewart lamllv. Cook conveyed te his son James, who in 17fc6 sold te Jacob Neil', of Hemptleld, whose executers sold te Henry Cassel, who married Catharine Nell', his daughter. It is new owned by A. N.

He was also appointed a Justlce et the peace for Cumberland county, and at the cominenceme nt et the Revolutionary war he raised a company of Hangers te protect the frontier settlers, and was appointed a sub lieutenant for Cumberland. The territory etnbraced in his jurisdiction is new com posed et several counties.

A recent burial at sea of a passeuger ou ene of the transatlantic steamshlps has caused many lottersof pretest against what la termed "an old and barbarous custom." The prac prac tlce seems wholly unnecessary at the present day, when thore are se many means at hand for keeplng a dead body until a vessel reaches pert. Sewing a body up in canvas, fastening heavy weights te it te cause It te sluk, and throwing it overboard n few hours alter the last breath is drawn, are excusable only In case of absolute necessity. Many In valids are deterred Irem making a sea vovnge for tbe benefit of their health ou account of the dread of sn ocean burial should they die en the pasage.
