The whole of this part of my life

first objects of human iutcrost. lint,
unfortunately, this has not been tbo
case. Those questions that alToid

have absorbed the nttentiou of m iu
kind in all ngos. Tho poet, Philoso
pher, logislutor, aud divine, each in
his turn, has frequently lent his aid
to subjects of a puroly speculative

Terrestrial rudiutiou is a constant

tho surface has gradually cooled to
its present condition, euca the

has ooostautly thrown off beat from
this source for thousands of years.
The iutonse beat of tbe earth is
proved by the progressive inoroaso
of heat as we descend into its inte

water baa a temperature of uiuoty
one degrees. The average incroase
of temperature, as we deceud, is over
one degree to every ono hundrod

Ico is well known to expand by
freezing. "To this exception the

exception to tue law roiuited to is
truly important.
Tho alterations of bodies by beat
aro of two kinds. We have only
spokeu of the first, that is, chungo of
volume i but production of a new
state of aggregation is also discover
ed. For instauoe, a solid body is
reduced to a fluid by a change of its
temperature, und a liquid to a guss.
When we boat any substauoe, tbe
elevation of its temperature is do
teruriued solely by tbe portion of
boat consu nodi tho rest of which,
iusonsiblo to tho tbormntuoler, is
absorbed to modify tho physical con
stitution of the body. This is what
is meant by latent boat) that is a
portion of heat has booome laleut m
the body. This is called t lief unda
mental law discovered by Black, and
is regarded as one of tho most bril
liaot discoveries in physical science.

is this i "That every body, in its
