BABINET Jacques (1794-1872)
MANUSCRIPT autograph signed, and L.A.S., Paris July 8, 1836, to Louis LEFÉBURE| 3 pages and a quarter in-fol. and 1 page in-4 with address.
Physics of the Globe. - The secular variations in the degree of saltiness of the seas and on the acclimatization of nature. Leçon destinée aux Entretiens populaires, a collective work published under the direction of Évariste
Thévenin, and under the aegis of the Association polytechnique (2nd series, 1861, Hachette, "Bibliothèque des chemins de fer", 1862).
Babinet recommends the introduction of herrings in the European and American lakes, but it is "especially the seal, an animal high in the organic scale and very intelligent", that he would like to see brought in the artificial lakes of the woods of Boulogne and Vincennes, and the lakes of Switzerland and Italy: he puts the Imperial Acclimatization Society "in residence to get these curious and educable amphibians"...
Invitation to the mathematician Lefébure to come alone or in company on Sunday: "I fear that the planet Horned is invisible if the horison of the setting sun is not very clear, as it often happens. You have to come before 8 o'clock to see Venus. Then we will have Saturn and its ring, the scintillation of Scorpio, the double of the Dogs and the beak of the Swan. That's all there is in the sky at the moment"...
