This furely is fallacious reafoning, it is drawing conclufions from founds, and not from the nature of things. If I admit foj a moment, that the pores of glafs in their na- tural fl:ate, are fo full of the eledtric efiluvia that they cannot hold any more, then, ...in the inftances I have mentioned, the termi- nating laminae are adted upon, and ad: upon each other, by the intermediate laminae, and all are at reft through the whole mafs, by the equal adtion of the feveral parts. Now if I fuppofe the counteradling force of the lamina A, at one fide be taken away, which is the fame in eff^eft as if the other had been abfolutely increafed, then the lamina B, the next to A, being impelled by the fluid be- hind, muft move forwards to the part left by A, and in this manner the whole mafs, by a general expanfion, will be rarified, and the glafs will become, as it is called, nega- tively eledrified; and this, on his principles, is no doubt the true caufe of the phenome- non.
