Second Magnetic Pole Discovered.
Two Metals , viz ., IKON and LEAD , are supposed to be united in a THERMO-EIECTRICAL circuit , ( vide fig . 2 ) , in which the IRON BAR is - \ - Caloric , and — Currential ; and the LEAD Bar — Caloric , and + Currential . The hollow arrows are the -f- or IRON Currents , which pass from the IRON to the LEAD , and act on the North Pole of the Needle . The black arrows are the LEAD Currents , which pass from the LEAD to the IRON , and act on the South Pole of the Needle . When
the Currents are equal , the Needle is at rest in the Line of no Variation . When , from any cause , the Currents become partially increased , Variation ofthe Compass is the consequence . The Line of mutation is formed at the point where one stream of Currents ceasing to act on one extremity of the Needle , the opposite stream commences its action on the other extremity , respectively denoted by the black and hollow bands .
The Solar Ray , exemplified by the flame of THE SPIRIT LAMP in the Thermo-Electrical Experiment , strikes upon the Earth's Limb at 60 ° , and from thence deflects upon ELBA in 43 ° Latitude North , Longitude East , where there exist Magnetic Rocks ; and also deflects from 6 Q ° North Latitude in West Longitude , upon the same parallel in America , where Magnetic Rocks also are undiscovered .
