...Physics have been made by Anglo-Saxons. The German experiments of the last two years only serve to illustrate the great principle enunciated ten years ago by Clerk Maxwell, namely, that heat, light, and electricity are all one and the same thing, and that we receive them all by electro-magnetic impulses transmitted through the ether from the sun. In the last one hundred years our ideas on physical subjects have immensely advanced. Benjamin Franklin's machine for producing electricity is a hundred times as large as the one we use today, yet ours is a hundred times as powerful...
...Peirce and Dr. Wilson are trying to determine the rate of flow of electricity into large reservoirs, for instance, into cables; in this investigation the greatest accuracy is necessary, as extremely small fractional parts come into play. Professor J. Trowbridge and Dr. S. Sheldon are at work on Electro motive forces, while Professor J. Trowbridge and Mr. Sabine propose to study the surface to the moon and determine its character by means of the absorption of the ultra-violet rays by surfaces of rock, ice and snow...
...Physical Seminar on Friday evening, Mr. Harding, '86, explained the action of geysers, illustrating by an interesting experiment, and Mr. McRae of the signal service, described the various forms of electro-meters. The next seminar will be on Friday...
