↑ For two preceding parts, see Philosophical Magazine, September and November 1877 (under title "On some Dynamical Conditions applicable to Le Sage's Theory of Gravitation ").

↑ Of course we do not refer to double stars, in close range.

↑ We believe Le Sage called attention to this in its application to "cohesion."

↑ To say that a raised weight tending to approach the earth by the action of the gravific medium, possessed "potential" energy because it can approach the earth, would be like saying that a ship confined by a cable and tending to approach a rock by the action of the wind, possessed "potential" energy, because it can approach the rock (by the breaking of the cable). The cases are evidently parallel.
