"The Author whereof would do well to affign a Reafon, why tht Earth Ihould be fa^ed in the Canter of the whole-

Faculties and Perfeaion*> and therefore ii the moft illnfiritus of them all, woold be a bold Allertioo, and llrongly
lavouring of a Mind overmuch attached to this Ar/ABall, and-iu Inbabiiants. And yet, if. this be not allowed a-
{nbfiaatial Reafon, I prcfume it will be bard to find another that is To. It nn»y be alked, why the Sua Ihould
revolve roand the Earth and not rather ronnd one of the other fuperior or inferior PlaneiE ( feeing he i> allowed to be
the great Sonice of L'g^t and Hiai to all thofe dark Bodies. And alfo, why the Sun be made the Center of the

ReV^olotions round an inferior Planet, t'ae Earth, as their Center. Clear, rational Anfivtrt ic thefe i^ifinns may go

This Mt:hiid is of moll ofe for oblerving ihe Stars, or Sun in his Selficis, having no Change of Declination in the IitKr-
valoi the two Obfeivations. For, when the Sun has a Change of Dudination, whereby it approaches the elevated
'oip, and increa/ei the Meridian Altitude «ith the Lfigih cf Days, and confequently makes the Afternoon Arc great-
er thr.n tile Forenoon Arc, defcribed between the fame Altitude, ihtn the Mean, between the two obiervcd
inftantE, wil! be hier than it really happened. And the ennirary follows in 'i'ae. Dtcreafe of D^ys: For then the
Chanj^e of the Eun's Declination being towards the deprefled Pole, the Mean of the two obferved InflanU will be
fj-.nir than it reaily was.
The greateft Error in the trge Time, thos computed, occafioned by the Sun's Change of Declination, docs not
exceed ic'. Eot, to compenfate for that Inaccuracy, we have given a •Tahle far the diffenm Laiiiudei and intervals

■ The above PROPOSITION find) the Milet in a D^ee of LaiitBde, and ii extenlinly ufcful in rurvcyiqg
Bftatts, CoiaUlti, or large Trtiat of Land. Mr. NtrwotnJ, in ihs Year 163^, made Ufe of it u dcterauDing the
Difference of Latitude (according to the Method in the foregoing Tiayerfe'Table} between the Parallelt of Z^m/of
and Tark, of given Laticudei, by coleftial Obfervation ; and <o determineg, -atry mar the Tmtb, the Miles in a De-
gree of Latitude. (Stt bti SianoM'i PraSice, fi»ei rifrimuJ/trVf. Mount and T. Page, «» Tower-HilL) For, he
meifuring the fererat Dillancei between all the Turnings of the Road, from Undn to riri, ai the Raad led him, at
the fame Time he abferved the fcTetal Bearingi betwixt thofe Turnings, by his Cirrum/hwftr, he then determined,
1^ Trigonometry, the feweral Diftrnrts of Latitude and Departure") (ivbicb ii deni at Sight bj sur Ea^ Cempiutr)
and thence he determined the Diftance, or Miles, Difference of Latitude, between the Parallels of Unden and 7>i,
and alfo Diftance of ihofc Meridiana. And confeqoently the Milei in a Degree of Lnitude, by Proportion of the
Milci in the Degrees, Difierence of Latitude, by ObferTadan. If which Biariiigi and Diftancii were again taken
acd meafured, more correAIy, eccartUi^ tt tht Ufi imfn^itd Mttbtdt tf Survepng, there is no Donbt, but that the
Difia»ti between the ParaJleU of Lm^ and 2Vi (on fo targe an Arc of the Meridian] might ba determined with
as much jlcturaij, u that Difimci (mcafnred by the Fmtb) wai dctcrinitted between the twa Parallels near the
Polar Grclt.
In furveying Connties (or even Efiates} b/ the Bearingi and Diftancei of their Circnits, the Ufe of the Hitdk
(not always heeping Parallel with itfelf ) is not to be tra£dtOi but the feveral Bearings and fiillanccs mu(t be taken
and meafuied by the tinj3*r Mrtiidi known. And, in //s/aV^ the Survey of a County, hy Crcuit StatitM Lr'tn,
(though confilling of never fo many] theymay be rcdnced toa/iMtf A'luijfr, for the firll p^ or Cloftug. Andthc
like Method fbould be parfued in plotting the-iotermacUate Circuit Stations betwixt each two plotted Stadoni in At
firft Plan, and fo on ; whereby every Circoit Station will be more correAly placed than by any other Method ; and
the rt/nltitig Out iim Or Pirn, will be a* near the Truth ai pollible.
At every Bearing taken, each Diftancc between the- fcveral Circuit- Stationi, may be meafured in Cbm'Ms, of 1 00
Feet, or by any ouer Mcwfhre, (tc bi infirttd in a SiativM *r Trover fi-TaiU^ ai aiivij corrcfpondent to wUch> the
feveral Differences of Latitadi and Dtparturt, or Nonhings and Sonthinn, aod Eallings and Weftings, will be found

THE Erid of the Wtfttrlj Mmfim on the CoaA of O-mmW'/i and the two loft M»iitii of the StktbtrJj Uoajaen, in

THE Winds, that eenftattlj blow /r»B>, or atari/ /ram, foine certain Pmnt of the CoDif afi, are called 7raJi
Wimdi : and fuch are the ff^iiidi Ships get into boiiod to the Wrfi lidiu.
If thefe Tradt IFindi blowing, for a certain Time, in a ConQant Direflian, or near it, fliift their Diieflion,
firiodicaify, ai a certain Time of the Year, and then blow uatrarj, they are called Mmjiefu: and fuch uexheWimdi
Ships gEi into bound to the Eaft Indit$.
Expititiictd Nervigatari,\taitiA to \\ie Weft Udlii, even to the Coaft of Amirua, are more folltcitous to run irito die
Latitudes where thefe ^radt Windi blow to favour their Paflage through thofe Seal, than to aitetnpt a dirtairCaar/i
and be retarded in their Voyage by cOnti'bn or adverfe Windi, ai they may happen to blow. And by getting into
thefe Tradi H^nJi, to command what Codrfe they pleafe, having the Wmd always more or lefi ahtji the Beam, they
find it (tmmidHus ta Ttin da-wn ihtir Latitvdt, before the Ship comet near the intended /'art or ^W; and then they
fteer opon a Parallti (direflly E. or W.^ by which they are fure to bit ihtir Pert dtjsgntd. Whereas the Iftand
of St^adaii, ai well ai other Places lying in the open Ocean, hare fbmttiiDei been ta//?, or over run, by the Inch
ar Itvt Mari/mti, \\ie hair Jpliltimg mA. diri^ Saviialari ; who, being homeward bound, fometimei Tun their Ship

This An of condoOing a Ship in the Tradt 'Wmdi, by a remoter Courfe, to make the qiiiciir Paflage, is known
(D the experienced Seaman; bnt iia Secret to the La»d littvigatar, (forwhofe Sake we iolett it) that ncrcr made a
Voyage to prove the tJfe of b'nrf/uudTinritt, -and pat hisic^^j/rLind-Rulei '\aPraSitt. ,
If Shipt, bonnd to, or from, the £«/ iTdiii, arrjve at the Place of. a 7frn[/iw too late for dieir Pafiagc, when that
Monfetn ii Ihifted the contrary Way of the Voyage, they arc forced to return to the aexxcamitniiiit Port, and there
wait, ferat Mantbi, for the Retnm of the fatrtcry M»afam, before they can puifoe their .Voyage. Whereas, if Shipt
righdy tiide their coming to the Place of the fawar^U Maafa«m, they haAen their PafTage through thole Seas, and
accomptiih their Voyagei in the fierieft Timi.
Ot tbefe different Sorts of TrtJe Wiads, yon maf obferve, that fome blow from &. to W. feme from S> t
others from W. to E. — Some are conllant in atu ^'arttr all the Year j fome blow one Half the Vear aat Wirf, and
the other fix Months quite nalrari. Others blow fix Mpnths one Way, ^nd then Shifting only eight or ten Points]
continue thtteiix Months more, and then return anin to their former Station*, ai all thefe >&i^(i^ Trade- Winds doi
and fo, as the Year .comes about, they alternately Tuccecd each other, in their proper Seafona.
There are other SoHi, called SiaWindt and Laad-Wmdi, diiFeting ranch from any of the former, the one blowing
by Day, the other by Night, conllattUy and regularly focceeding each other.
Within the Tarrid Zont alfo ire vh&at Surmt, U fierce, tf not fiercer than any are in ubrr farii of the World
And as to the SiBfans of the Year, they are diftlnguilhed in thefe Parts only by V'mnd J>rj, (there never being Pro£
or Snow) which wrr «nd drj Se^ni do «l fucceffircly follow one another, as the Wtn'tir and Saimnr do \nth as it
Eaglaad. . .
Here wt tXto JIr»»g Carrtati, fometimei fetting one Way, fomciimet aiwtheri which ibowh it. is difficult to
<]e(cribe. With' definbte Accuracy, yet we have attem^ed to give « panicnlai Accoant of thefe (hfattcn, from onr

3. Ai there iddR be a ^atflian anfK-ercd to determine the DiSereace of Longitade betwixt any two Meridiant,
wfiofe LoDgitudes, according taantitnt Cujlim, are given from Ftrra, the fame Qaeftion may be at readily anfwered
from the Longitudei Eaft or Weft, coanted from another given Meridian. But if the Longitude* of Places arc
liven at once Sam the Mttrtptlh or Ohferv«t»rj of any pariUuiar Nalien, they are ready (without dctermioiog them)
for the Service of that Nation** Navigation, to afcertain the Longitade, Declination, or right Afccnfion of the
CKleftial Bodiei nnder a diftant Meridian. And on which Acconnt we have given an cxtmfive SEA-COAST
TABLE, following, with the Difference of Longitndea from Grttntmeb, according to modem CnSom, at well
ai the correfpooding tAj§Lt* Longitndei, according to antient Cuftom, from Am, which modern Cufiom has
ahnoft faperfeded.
Example* of the eqnal Fadlity of both thefe Wayi of finding the required Difference of Longttnde of Placci,
areleen in Page 317.

Ca^iaifj BROWN'x DIRECTIOtjTS for the Safety of Hom&ward-bound
SHIPS, comif^ int^rthe £n«^i«h CHAi>WEt.
FIRST, T recommend that all Shipcand VeflUs, cdming off ' die Omts, be fleered in a Paroililof Latitade, not
more nor left than 49° 30' i keeping yoor trait going, e nde w onr ro flrilce Ac Grtnnd in looor t to fW^ns Water,
which I call the oater EJgtof the BHii/b Bani, or StmtJmgs. Steer front thence E. i.S. ^ S. in Order to keep )'Our
LaiitMdti by the Compafi, tiH by your iw yon have ^iin 80 Leagoei from the tAiore Sending ai looor \zoFaib»i»
Eaftward, Theti may you h±vii to the JftriWori^and make Land at Pleafgre. fiat, if interrapted by Cloodi, or
hazy Weather, fo that yon have mifled an Obrervation for feveial Dtyt, whereby yon cannot, with Ceitainty, de-
termine your Laiitiule, in fmh Ca/it, if you come intb Stmu/ingi from die Wijttrn Ocuh, ottferA, at before, to gel
Ground, if poffible, in 100 or 120 Fatbmu, which obtained, keep your Ltg and Zray going every Hoar; fteering
G. ^. S. I S.. tilt, by your Diilance, you have run from the aforefaid SerniJingi 40 or 45 Liagiui, and ihoiiled yonr
Water ; gradually leffening to 60 fathtmi. Then joa- may find it difEcuTt to deteri&ine wbeclier yon arc to the
NorlbviorJ, or the Seutb^'arJ of Sdllji for the SaiaJIkgi oa both Sidei I have often found to be pretty ncir alike.
Tbtriftrt, to rpfolve thi* Donbt, I recomittend fteering a Sauihtrlf Civrfi from the afordaid Difiaaci run, and Depth
of 60 Faiem i and ai yoafail to the Saulbv:ard yoM mil deepen yonr Water from 6a to 70 and 7j Fathom i which
having done, von may depend on the Sri.'ijb Chaaiul being open, and clear from the Danger of cither running a-
Ihore on SciHy,' o! into St. Giirgi'i Cbakml, too often the Fat* and Cafe of Shipt, who, for Want «f fnch tidpt, aft
fomed met loft, with the Liv» on Board, or daugeroDlly bewildered.
When you have got the Depth of 7D or 7^ Ftahom, afoirersid, fmmediatel)' alter the Sautberfy Ctarft to E. orE. b.
S till, by yourDittance, yon are Ih^t wiiJiiii 5i-;//t^.^aflii^ 1 the faid Placet lying abont 62 or % Li^^uti from the
if'tjlirn Ldge of the Byili^ Soandinft, then may yOu hawl to the NtrtbvwJ, and make the Lad, at yon think
But, if you come from the Sauib-viard, the Coaft of Sfaiu and Partita], or Bay of Sifiaj, you mnfl be likewife
careful how yon come in with the Channel, in thick Weather j for at yon fbike GrAund with yotar Ltad, you will
oheri f^nAirarfiSaimditigi; and, if ncttU/htat, Gravel, with fm all Stones | which Ground it much fteeper than the
Edge of the Wtfttm Bank. For, if yon come into your Saundingi with the Chinnel aptn, fleering to the Naniviard,
to make the Land'iEnd, lixard, Wr. in running eight or ten jf^a^w/, yon will go from 100, to 75, or 70 Ftiitm, in
the faid Difimta. Whereat being to die Wtjhuard, you may nin 20 or 30 Ltagutt, and not make more DiffrertMre in
your Sottitd'Kg than aforefaid. So that, from what I have advanced, it will be eafy to determine whether yffi have tfce
Channel open or nut, aAj^/that hit oftm pnzzled the mo& exftrinrad Mariatrt, and fkilfuL Navigators, niing

the Latitude of the Land'i-End, Lizard, i^c. are laid down, ten Milei to the Nortbiaard of their true Laiitodo. Sv
that if thefe J/aptdimtnli are not all duly conftdered, and allowed for, I fay, from what I have already obferved, an
Errer may be caiily contraded, greatly endangering the Loft of a Ship.
Thefe Dire^lhm being carefully obferved, yonr Latitude and DiAance will be corrected, and a tolerable Enow-
ledge of the Ship's PoGtion may be inferred. And I would alfo advife all Ships to be carefnl how they deal with the
FrtB{f> C'ofi, For let the Weather be at it will, after having run the Difiante aforefaid, off the Ifi^Ut of Sdiift then

which neither the MatbemaHeiaMi of remote Aget, or thofe of more modem Dait, fioce the Reviv^ of Learning in

greatly beyond what the human Uodcrflanding hu before been thought eqaal to, was referved for NiwtM. Foi
Him it was deOjned to raife the Snglifi Repotation in the taltjiial Scimea above that of other Nations, and to teach
the admiring World, the tru Caitfti of the Order and Harmon/ obfeired thiooghoiU our PXiAN£TAB.Y

Trom thence the general Printipki on which the fereral Tltnrtmj are efiablilhed, and firom whence iitmfi TbMiy.
the different PraBUm are deduced, without entering into the Jkxianarj MUbad in their Srtntion :
giving only, in zetieral, the RifiJt of the Compncationi, as they are derived from the Prindfiu tf Mitku. To
have gone fartitr, had been, at once, to copy all that our Anthof haa wrote npon thii

Therefore, t^ttrii ^ribai, the Planet P mnft moTe/u^«r in the ConjunAionsthanin the QaadrgtoTci.
Hence alfo the Orbit of the Body P, (Cer. 4. Pnp, .famt) cattrii faribui, u more curvia at the Qaadratnret

Bat then Mt/icmJEjiiatitii of fariatim has been obferved, Sir ^<7af- fays, to be liable to Change
For, when the San ii in Cenfumaieit vihi it* Jpegtan ef ihi Moon, it is, according to nir AatSer, I . Chatigt af tht

Dr. Grigyrj, who firft publifhed this fameiu Tb*eij to the World, gives us a veiv perplexed and coofufed Atctuut
af ibii Efuatien ; nor had Sir (faac Niwlen himfelf Obfervations fuScient to fpeah of this Change with Certainty.
In his firfl EJimn of the Principia, he fays, that the thiagtahlt ^entity is to be determined
by the Siluatim af tb* A^gimi cf tbt San aad Maan ; and is grcateft when they are in Con- a. CBntro-oirJitt a.

and greattft alfo when the Moon's Apogeon is in Conjun^on with the Sun ; bat whether Icfs
in Oppofition to the Sun, Or. Grtgvry, Lt«Jbttier. and others, tell ui, that our jiatiar could not determine, far
Want ef Ohfert^aihm. But this fuppoled Change, in this Sjuaiisn, i) not from the mutual Situation of the ji^fidtt,
or of the Sun, in Regard to the higher or lower ^^j of theMoon'iOrbit; but of the Moon in refpe^ to her DiHance
Irom the Earth ( and is, in Truth, not an Increafe or Decreafe of thisT^nW/Vjafffs, but of the firit only^'and
from the Principles deduced, in the foregoing Paragraph, to which the Reader is referred back.
VII. Of tbt MOTION af iht MOON'j APOGEE, or APSIDES.
PROM tbt ytb mJ Stb Caraiimj af lit 66/i Prapvfitiait ef tht \ft Book. Our Author derives the Motion tff the
Moon's Apogeon. The /Mfualrtici of which Motion are, at he oblerves, very great, and generate the ^W«a/i>/£;mi-
» ef Iht Afegtt.
From what follows, it will appear endent, that the Lim^ /A* .^»iS//f mall have, on the whole, a progreffive Motion :
bat very irregular. For, when the Meea'i Afegtt is in Coojanflio'n and Oppofition with the Sun, the Apogee goee for-
ward at the ^i-Mr^ Aa/'; bnt, when in Qaadraturewith the Sun, it evengoeibackward. For,
in the Qaadrature, the Force by which the Body P. (fie Fig. I.) is urged to the Body T, the i. Irrtgnlar Me-
Force MT, then vanifhing, ia compounded oF the Force MI., and the centripetal Force with lian ef tht Apfidtt
which the Body T attratts the Body P. The fi'/i Fe'ce. ML. is increafed, niarlj, as PT. txplaiptd.
Theother dccreafes in ^dufUcati Proportioo of that Diftance. Therefore the Sum of tbefe
two Arm decreafe in a lefsPtoportioD than the duplicate. Whence the Li/ir of the Afifij, [hy the 1 . CereH. of the
4ctb Pn/. of the if Bosk) will recede. In the ConjunAion and Opposition, the nwr/'i/n'ii/FoTceis asthe Difierence
of the Force KL, and PT; which, bccaufe KL is nearly increafed astbe DinancePr, AezttAfa \a inert than a dupLcete
Rati* of that Diflancc; and therefore caufes (Car. i. Prep. 45, B. I.J the Apfides to go forward. Bnt, iince the Force
KL, in the Syzigies, is nearly twice the Force LM, in the Quadratures, the Ejteifi will be on'the Side of the Force
SL t and, by Confcquence, the Line ef lit A^dei will, on the whole, be carried forward.
- Sir I/aac Nfwien does not determine the Quantity of this progrciEre Motion of the Moon's A}Jiiti, from die tbtary
»f Gra-vit), the S«/«/'u« he gives of the PROBLEM, " TO find tbt MOTION ef tht APSl DES (fee Prep. 45 ,
" Prabl. 31. ^. 1.) in OftBITS mar^ CIRCULAR," accounts, when appLed to the Moon's Otbit, but for Hdl
the Quantity of the progrelhre Motion of the Affii in one Lunaiien, tiix. i> 3 1' aS', nor has Mr. MaMn fuccecded
belter. He tried what it would do, tonfdtring tbt Caaft ef ibit Malian ai arijing frem tbt Fariatien ef tbt Meen's Graiiily
ta ibt Earth, ai it rfuelim in tbt eUipttc E^qcit, afareountiantd., for afcertaining its true ^aantitj : the Difference
of iheFareei being, in that Cafe, doable the former { but it gave not the Quantity of Motion with that F-xaamfs as
was requijite : Her viai then tag Mtlhedf he ibeagbt, wpen cemaenly rtciititd Prineiplii, fu^dtnt fat tbit Purpeft.
Neverthetef^ this PrebUm has lately been very Cuisfadorily folved by the Rev. Mr. Patrick PrJ,i~ CJ. J
