be not far from the star Voga, the brightest point in the Northern Sky, and then it will commence to return, so that after the lapse of about 25,000 years the Pole will ha found again in the same celestial neigh- bourbood where it is to-night, hearing, w the meantime, travereed a mighty circle through the constellations.

So much for the movement of the Celestial Pole. The terrestrial one he thus describes

We have a general idea that the Terrestrial North Pole lies in a region of eternal ice. Suppose that Nanson does! saccood in his expedition, how is he to identify that particular apot on this globe which is to be defined by the North Pole? Imagine that your eye was placed at the contra of the earth, and that you had a long slender tube from that centre to t surfact through which you could look exactly to the point in the heavens which is the Celestial Polo, then that spot in which the end of the tabe peases on through the surface of the earth is the North Terrestrial Pole. Imagine a stake driven into the earth at the plaen named, then the position of that stake is the critical spot on our globe which has been tae object of so much maritime enterprise. Now, does the Fole more? At the time of the building of the Pyramids, the Pole in the heavena was in quita a different place from its position now, and a tubo, looking at it from the centre of the earth, would have come out at the suringo at a totally different place from that at which the tube would come at present. It seems perfectly certain that at any time within the last 10,000 years the North Pole night | have been found within a ragion carth's surface not larger than Hyde Park. The North Pole describes a cirole, and the period in which each revelation of the Pole around that circle takes place la about 497 days, or about two months more than the period that the earth requires for the performance of each revolution arenad the sud.
