The Times of the Eclipfes contained in this Table, are a-

dapted to the Meridian of the Royal Obfervatory near Lon- 5 don ; and by carefully obferving the Times of the Immerfions

and Emerfions of this Satellite, which is tbemoft convenient J and propc for Gcograpiiical Purpofes, of any of the other three, I the Longitude or Difference of the Meridian of the Place

wheF<? the Obfervation is made, and the Place the Eclipfes are ] calculared for, may be exactly difcovered j and is the moft 3 correct and practical Method ever yet hit upon : Notwith- \ f.anding the many whimfical, and fome ingenious Ways, in* * vented for that Piirpofe, by fevcral Perfons which have fpent

much Time and Labour, in Hopes of gaining the great Re- 5 ward of Twenty Thoufand Pounds offered by Parliament, for 0 a practical Method for folving that grand Problem withCer-

0 tainry, but hitherto to no Effecl:. Ir is alfo much more 3 eafy and correct eo find the Difference of Meridians by this ? Method, than by the Eclipfes of the Moon, not only on Ac- jj count of their more frequent happening, but becaufe the 3 Motion and Times of theie Immerfions and Emerfions arc 5 more eafily obferved, than the Times of the Beginning and 3 End of a Lunar Eclipfe ; becaufe theTimeofthe Moon's In-

1 grefs into the Shadow of the Earth, and her Egrefs out of it, is not eafily diftinguiftied from that of the Penumbra.

J ftall illnftrate the Ufe of the fable by an Example. Suppofe on the 13th of December this prefent Year, the merfion of Jupiter's fir ft Satellite be obferved by a Tellefccpe, [o happen at 44 Minutes and 28 Seconds paft Eleven at Nigfit, I find by the Table that the Time of this Emerfion will happen at the Britijh Obfervatory, the fame Night at 24. Minutes 38 Seconds after Nine : The Difference of the Time is two Hours 19 Minutes and fifty Seconds; which being converted into Degrees and Minutes of the Equator, gives thirty-four Degrees fifry-feven Minutes and thirty Seconds* the true Difference of Longitude Eaflward 5 becaufe at the Place of Obfervation the Time is more from Noon, than ar the Obfervatory.

See the Operation. Emerfion at the Place of Obfervation, n 44 *S Emerfion at the Obfervatory, 9 24 38

Obje&ions againft the Copernican System, anfwered by the Reverend and Learned Dr. Derham.

Continued from our laft.

HAVING thus anfwered the Objections from Scripture, I (hill in the lalt Place confider thofe brought from Strife and Phi!ofophy.

The Objection from Sen/e is, that we fee the Heavenly Bodies actually to move, and therefore ought to believe they do fo. But there is no Weight at all in this, becaufe whether we ourfelves, or the Object movetb, it amounts to the fame. As is manifeft: to any one carried in a Boat orChariot* the pro- greffive Motion of which produceth the Appearance of a regreffive Motion in the unmoved Objects we look upon; according to ffirgifc Defcription of JEneas and his Company's leaving their Poit.

As for the Reafon hereof, I (hall »efer to the Opticians, particularly the famous Kepler^ who in his Optices AJironom. hath defignedly handled this Point,

The' Objections, from Philofophy are too nurneroas to be d ftlnctly anfwered, efpecially fuch as feem very frivolous particularly thofe grounded on Suppofitian of the Verity of tne Ariftotelian Philolophy as the Immutability a-.d Incor- ruptability of the Heavens, (s'e For Anfwens to which I mall refer the . Reader to Galileo's- Syftem tyund. But for fuch Objections as feem ro have fome Reafon in them, they are chiefly thefe, That if the Earth be mpved from W. to E. a Bjllec fhor Wefhyafd would hiv^ a fareoer ftang^ than one (hotEaftward 5 or if N. or S. ir wovM mifs chelVLrkj or if pe particularly upright, h would drr>p\toch« Weftward

That Bii ds flying towards the Eaft would be hindered in their Flight, bur forwarded in flying the cootrary Way* with much more to the fame Purpoie. But not to enter m o a Derail of Anfwcrs that might be given from the Laws of Motion, and the Rules of Mechanicks and Mathematicks, I mall only make ufe of the mod ingenious Ga///Ws plain Experiment, which anfwereth all or raoft of the Objections. Shut, faith he, yourfelf up with your Friend in the great Cabin of a Ship, together with a Parcel of Gnats and Flies, •nd orher li- tie winged Creatures Procure alfo a grrat Tub of Water, and put Fifties rherein. Hang alfo a Bottle of Water up, to empty itfelf Drop by Drop into another fuch Bottle placed unierneith with a narrow Neck. Whilft the Ship lies ftill, diligently obferve how thofc little winged Crearuresfly with the like Swifcnefs towards every Part of the Cabins how the F«fhes fwim indifferently towards all Sides asd how the defending Drops all fall into the Bottle under- neath. And if you throw any thing to your Friend, you need ufe no more Force one Way tfian another, provided the Diftance be equal* And if you leap you will reach as far one way as the other. Having obferved thefe Particulars whilft the Ship lies ftill, make the Ship to fail with wftat Velocity you pleafe, and folong as the Motion is uniform, not fluctua- ting thi3 Way and that way, you (hall not perceive there is any Alteration in the aforefaid Effects ; neither can you from them conclude whether the Ship moveth or ftandeth ftill. But in leaping you fhal! reach as fajr on the Floor as you did before ; nor by reafon of the Ship's Motion, (hall you make a longer Leap rowards the Poop then the Prow, notwithstan- ding that whilft you were up in the Air, the Floor under your Feet had run the contrary Way to your Leap. And if you catt any thing to your Companion, you need ufe no more Strength to make it reach him, if he ihould be towards the Prow, and you towards the Poop, than if you flood in a Contrary Poliuon. The Drops (hall fall into the lower Bottle, and not one towards the Poop, although the Sh p mail have ran many Feet, whilft the Drop was ia the Air. The
