The Axe of llio Knrlh
Some of the English geologists claim
that in studying tlio earth they can “dis
cover no marks either of the commence
ment or tho termination of tlio present
order,” vvlrim others assert tlmt wo must
go hack to a hundred thousand million
years ago, or more, if we would stand at
the beginning of the earth's ago. Sir 4Vil-
Jiain Thompson, an eminent English au
thority iri-Applied Mnthenintics and Nat
ural Philosophy, controverts hotli tlie
statements as to llio .“commencement”
and tlio ago of tlio earth. Ho applies in
three different methods mathematics to
tho solution of these abstruse problems.—
His first method is to calculate tlie inter
nal heat of the earth, anil of the time Hint

cooling, it mast lmvo onco been very rinich
hotter than it is now; tho rate of its cool
ing can be calculated, and the result Bhows
that there was ail epoch—say one thou
sand million years ago—when' the heat
