Scientific paper

IN a very interesting little book on phosphorescence by T. L. Phipson, Ph.D., published in 1866, on p. 184 he says: ``We have no proof that the molecules of bodies vibrate in straight lines; their motion is more probably circular. Indeed, my ingenious friend, M. Porro, has endeavoured to show the great resemblance which seems to exist between these molecular movements and those of celestial bodies; and it has been supposed by some philosophers that the molecules of matter are as distant from each other, in proportion to their size, as the planets themselves''. ``But in the present state of knowledge, all these considerations are premature''.
