In the hydrodynaniic case the heterogeneities should befluid, and it is practically impossible, on account of the action ofgravity, to have a fluid mass of given shape flowing freely in afluid of other density. If for the fluid bodies we substitute rigidbodies, suspended from above or anchored from below, according totheir density, it is easily seen, by means of our registering device,that the lines of oscillation have a tendency to converge toward thelight, and to diverge from the heavy bodies. But this registeringdevice cannot be brought sufficiently near these bodies to showthe curves in their immediate neighborhood. Here t
