Faraday has been again astonishing the world with
another brilliant discovery surprising all his previ
ous efforts, demonstrating the direct relation OF
electricity to light. The experiment has not yet
been exhibited to the public, will it be until he
has presented it TO the Royal Society, for which he
s now preparing paper but from a letter from Sir
James South published in the Mechanics Magazine,
some information may be gathered respecting it. II
is the m0gnstisation oflight or the Inflammation Of
the lines of magnetic forces. a beam OF polarized
light is DETECTED by the electric current so that it
NAV be made TO rotate round the poles ofa magnet,
and OF course the converse of this. that electro
magnetic rotations may be produced by the agency
of light The problem of the magnetizing power
of the Suns rays is now solved and demonstrated
to satisfaction. All this is OF course connected with
the sublime science of Photography, and may lead
10 some important results. only wish had time
and opportunity at my command 10 follow out many
ideas which this suggests.


Connected with Astronomy, another grand dis
covery has been made by Professor Encke of Berlin,
new plaRet near the orbit Of Vesa, OF the four
small planets in our system. The astronomers are
all alive in consequence and doubt shall hear
something farther on this subject
