It is remarkable that the late eclipse, which
was rendered almost invisible on this side of the channkl
by the extreme thickness of the atmosphere, was seen per-
fectly in Paris during the whole four hours. The boule-
vards, quays, and bridges were thronged with observers,
and an ingenious mode of making money was adopted by
sending about " observatoires ambulans," where, for a
trifling fee, the Parisian astronomers were accommodated
with the use of telescopes.
