RussELLs PLANETARIUM.-Our readers are aware
that TINS magnificent structure has been recently
destroyed by fire al the burning of the Providence
Theatre. The loss 10 dollars has been estimated at
ten thousand, but that is poor way indeed to cal
culate the loss. which elementary astronomy has
suffered by It's destruction. The inventor and con-
structor OF the Planriarium devoted many years OF
studious thought and almost ncessapt labor 10 its
production. Thousands of dollars were expended
upon il, and at last the patient and perseyerng
perimenter was rewarded by complete, and 80 far
as mechanical Ingenuity could do it, in the present
state of astronomical science, perfect model OF the
solar stem, showing with exactness and beautiful
precision, the revolutions Of the different planetary
bodies around The sun, their durna motion, the n'o
lion Of the satellites or moons, &c, &c. The oper-
a!ion of the machinery was beautiful, and conveyed
AT one glance more correct idea OF our 81 stem
than whole days of patient study.
The Planetarium was Triumph Of American ge-
MUS and American Industry. Ii stood alone proud
and noble contribution to the science o., astronomy.
1t belonged 10 America, and should have been de-
posted, as enduring monument 10 lis inventorand
the land he had hoDored, in some public depository
under the ownership Of Government. But 1t was
suffered TO go almost begging. In Europe its
merits were known, and it was sought for. A good
price was offered for il there, and the propretors
were determined, even at some sacrifice OF time and
money, to give the people Of this country ON oPpor
UNITY TO behold this great creation of one of their
own countrymen before it should be taken from the
land. And in this laudable and praiseworthy work
they were engaged when the destroying element
burst upon them-and the Planetarium is thing
that was.
