They know very ▼ell that when it is noon in London it is about 7 o'clock in the morning m Boston, and that when it is noon in San Francisco it is 3 o’clock in the afternoon in New York city. Now, ae the meridian of London extends to the north pole, it neces sarily ensues that when it is noon in the English capital it must also be noon st the north pole. In s sim ilar manner when it is noon st Bos ton, or in San Francisco, or st Peking, or any other place situated in the northern hemisphere, it fol lows that it must also be noon st the pole, because all the meridians of those placet unite st the north pole. Therefore it is noon all day long st the pole. Thus there is an entire abeence of time at the pole. Bnt it would he fast as correct to say that it is for 1,000 years.
