A New System Explanatory Of Terrestrial Phaenomena.
That Line , consequently , constitutes a natural Loxodromic , Helispherical Line ; and hence the Magnetic Meridian , or Directive Line , or Line of no Variation , which is a part of the Line in question generated by the DIVINE , VITAL , INTELLIGENCE , is a Spiral terminating in the Terrestrial Magnetic Pole . But the Pole is known not to be situated at the extremity of the Magnet . It hes in an unapproachable point betiveen the extremity of the Loadstone and its centre . In
a perfect Circle the Pole must , therefore , be located in the point of the u'Oth degree ; because the chord , or line subtending this Arc , is the only finite line betiveen the extremity and centre , or is the sole entire line within thc Circle , whose dimensions coincide with the Radius , or Semidiameter .
