telerence has l een mane in tlie accounts 1
ot the recent eruptions ot that mountain,
mentions a law in regard to the atmos

ha- rtai lied, as the result ot his observa
tions for a quarter ot a centurv in a cnun
try where meteorological changes that are
very regular ami le-s capricious than in
(treat llritain. He enunciates this as lol
lows; It within a distance of al*out filly
miles there is no shower of rain, hail, or
sm w the electricity i.- always fositive —
The singe ixceptioti is during the pmjec
lion ot a-he- from the crater of Vesuvius
Dur ng i shower he finds .the I Mow ing
Isw to l.o'd g ml nnivtr-njlv : At the place
ot the stiver there is a strong develop
ment of positive electricity; round this
there i- a zone ol negative electricity;
and lievoml this aga-n, (switive The na
ture ol ti e electricity observed depends
upon the position of the nlwerver with res
peel to the shower, and the phenomenon
will change according to the direction in
which the shower is moving Sometimes
negative electricity may he observed dnr
J ing a shower; hut this is always due to a
i more powerful shower further off These
