Or else the observed fact may be largelyattributable to the effect of the points wdiich I have mentionedabove, in consequence of which the blocks or filaments containedin the vacuima are equivalent to condensers of many timesgreater surface than that calculated from their geometrical dimen-sions. Scientific )nen still differ in opinion as to whether acharge should, or should not, be lost in a perfect vacuum, or inother Avords, whether ether is, or is not, a conductor. If the.
