ing, said.
I'll shall prize this token of your regard as one
of the most precious moments of my day No
period OF my life was dear as the four years
We spent together in the war for the union. The
one regret, the one sadness on the occasion like
this is that so many OF those who did most to give

Let one fail to look at this beautiful planet
now visible in early evening in the southeast,
it will be years before so brilliant planet will be
seen again. A gentleman viewed it through a
large English opra glass last evening, and it ap-
peare1 to him through it, to be some twenty in
ches in diameter, and resembled a beautiful cus-
ter of diamonds, or the falling petals of sky
rocket. Any good opera or spy glass will much
improve the view. a Mass. Astronomer has
exploded the absurd notion that you can see Mars
moons reflected in mirror he says it is all de-
fusion, caused by the quicksilver on the back of
the glass rejecting the front. Five planets
are now visible on clear evening, very rare
occurrence.
