DR.. LARDyKR's LYcEuM-The experiment Of the
first lecture at the Tabernacle, on Friday evening,
proved that building not to be adapted to the advan
tageous display of the panetarium. The audience,
necessarily occupying the gallery, were too distant.
and Notwithstanding the great number OF gas lights,
the instrument was very imperfectly seen. In con-
sequence OF these circumstances, the exhibition and
the lectures will this evening and every succeeding
evening be given in the Society Library room,
near In. Tabernacle 1t will be seen by the an
nouncement that in few days an afternoon exhi-
bition OF the planetarium, physical experiments,
dioramas, &c. will be given. The matters in con-
troversy between Prof. Gouraud and the propretors
Of the Planetarium have at last been amicably ar
ranged the former having accepted, for reinquish-
ing all his claims 10 the instrument, stipulated
sum, besides benefit in each of the three cities of
New York, Boston and Philadelphia. In conse-
quence OF this agreement Prof G.s farewell lecture
in connection with the Planetarium is intended to
take place on Friday evening next-the particu-
lars OF the evening to be given in special advertise
ments one or two days previously.
