slight differences and degrees of heat. It is composed of alternate
bars of antimony and bismuth, or any two metals having different
capacities for the conduction of heat, connected with an astatic
galvanometer, which is very sensibly affected by the electric current
induced in the system of bars when exposed even to the feeblest degrees
of heat.

- A very singular missile weapon used by the natives of
Australia and in some parts of India. It is usually a curved stick of
hard wood, from twenty to thirty inches in length, from two to three
inches wide, and half or three quarters of an inch thick. When thrown
from the hand with a quick rotary motion, it describes very remarkable
curves, according to the shape of the instrument and the manner of
throwing it, often moving nearly horizontally a long distance, then
curving upward to a considerable height, and finally taking a
retrograde direction, so as to fall near the place from which it was
thrown, or even far in the rear of it.
