building, south side Of Main street. For
architectural beauty, handsome display and
fine fnish, 1t is superior to any buildiag
in the city, rejecting great credit on the
owners for the enterprise, good judgment
and taste they have displayed in its cree
ton. The building is 40xs0, 3 stories
high, and built after the modern style of
architecture The first floor is fitted up as
double store, and is occupied by Mr.. M.
A. Hirsh as mammoth dry goods store,
making one Of the finest business rooms to
be found IN the interior of the State. The
second floor is divided in to capacious office
rooms aud is already nearly all occupied
In the third or upper story "Cambrian
Hall" is situated, room oftine proportions
for meetings and entertainments. The
basement is fitted up into pleasant bust
ness roorns The entire building has been
erected with Al eye not ouly 10 oeautJ anu
finish but to substantiability, and its own
ers can boast of possessing an ornament to
our city. One of the proprietors, Mr..
Evans. is the architect, and he has certain
" displayed ability and taste in the work
he has performed. Richard and William
Rowlands, of this city, were tie contract

larger, was entertained last Monday Eve
ming, at Turner Hall, with the recital OF
''She-man's grand march to the Sea-" by
the soldier and orator, General Fitzpatrick.
Ia his description of battle fields and march
es the General was thrilling aud eloquent,
and where he came to speak of the

tainly humorous and witty. In our small

it was one Of the oest and most interesting
lectures ever delivered 10 the city.

Besides revolving round the sun. the
planets revolve upon their own axes in the
same direction as they revoive in their
ORBITS, that is from west to east. This is
called their DiurnaI Rotation. The sun al
SO rotates upon its own axis but requires
about sos hours or 253 days to molete
one rotation. the inclination oil its axis to
the plain of the earth's orbit is about TO
1t is not difficult to find the hourly mo-
ton of a planet in its bit. The orbits
being nearly circles, twice The mean dis
lance from the sun will give US the dame
ter and 3 II times the diameter will give us
the circumference or whole distance travel
ed In the periodic time. Then finding the
number OF hours in this time and dividing
the whole distance by this number we OBJ
tam the hourly motion. Thus mercury's
mean distance from the sun is 80 millions
of miles ;.then 35x2x3 1-7=220 millions .he

8Sx24-2ll2 hours, and 22O millions

As this article will appear in print just
about Tie date of the vernal equinox, [

The 9th astronomical hour contains but
one important star Sirius, the King Of stars,

Uelt Of Orion and go south east from it..
His true bearings are north polar distance

Ascencion, 6 hours 80 minutes. From ex-
perimeats mace by NJ. Stafford, the able
astronomer in charge Of The observatory in
Chicago, it is ascertaiced that he anass of
Sirius is IS times that of the snn, and if
It's deustieS are the same its diameter is
little more than times that of The sun
and its disc times as great. But photo
metric measurements have shown that its
light is 400 times as great as that of the
sun would be, If be latter were removed to
the distance OF Sirius, so hat the materials
OF this star must be much less dense, or its
that OF tle sun. By photomelric expert
ments made by Messrs Clark and Bond,
between the star VegG and the sun, il has
been shown that if the sun were removed
to 1873, 500 times It's present distance it
would send Us the same quantity of iigh It as
that star. But the nearest star, Il Centuura
is mole than 200, 600 times as far from US
as the sun, and Vega times as far as A
Centauri. Hence the sun if removed to the
distance of the nearest star, would shine on
ly as star f the I'd magnitude, ard if
removed to the distance OF stars of the LIST
magnitude would appear as a star OF the
9th magnitude, and be just visible to the
naked eye.
