It will be seen from the preceding article that the workof creation has been progressing during incalculable myriads of age:^,andwe may rest sati.*tied that it forms no part of the Divine economy todestroy what it has been millions of years in building up. The agenciesemployed in the creation of the universe are identical with those whichnow exisit for its preservation. Harmony and perfection are everywherereal entities; derangement and disorder are apparent only. That thesuns apparent path through the ecliptic is really caused by the motion ofthe earth in its (jrbit around the sun, may be seen from the globes in thefigure, representing the earth in twelve different positions, corresponding. ■to the twelve months. In the various globes, N is the north pole, DCLthe equator, S tlie place of the Sun, and C S and all lines from C furallel punto tliis the direction of the plane of the ecliytic. The inclination of theearths axis to the plane of its orbit is 23° 2S, and tliis, with its annualrevolution around the Sun, causes the change of seasons known asSpring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Besides the diurnal and annualmovements of the earth, there is also an onward movement of the wholesolar system through space, in an orbit of its own, at the rate of 15J- <X)0,-000 niUes per annum.
