The Total Eclipse of the Sun.

Ga the Goth of July next a total
eclipse at the sun takes place under such
circumsiar ce' rs t" present opportunities
that occur scarcely once in generation
for the study # some of the INST inter-
esting phenomena with which a,trono-
mers have t. d.. the path of the total.
ity of this eclipse runs diagonally across
the center # the United States from
Montana 10 Texas, and is somewhere
about 140 miles wide. Many of the best
points for Observing the eclipse are there
fore accessible 10y railroad, and several
expeditions might be sent out fully
equipped in a many different points,
without Spending 80 much money upon
them all as it would ordinarily take to
equip single expedition to more dis
tant point.
Recent discoveries have rendered it
probable that most Of the meteorolo sical
changes in progress upon this planet are
caused by events taking place upon the
sun, and many questions relating to the
physical constitution of that orb, and the
changes there taking place, can only be
studied during total eclipse. 1t is said
by Admiral Rodgers, of the Naval Oh
>ervatory, that the sum Of the opportuni
ties which all tie astronomers of the
world can get for observing such eclipses
does not exceed five or six hours in a
century, and it is therefore important
that every advantage should be taken of
the very favorable conditions for observa-
ton under which the present eclipse &C.
ours. All the principal European gov
ernments recognize the importance of
studying the phenomena attendant upon
the total cclipsrS, and send out costly ex
peditinn-, even to their antipodes when
necessary, for this purpose; ami there is
no DOUBT that there is IA general impress
sion abroad that our government would
make ample provision for the study Of
4 matter of such general interest, that is
visible almost exclusively within our
borders, or the different foreign govern
ments would no doubt be preparing to
organize expeditions for observation on
our territory. Our government, however,
has so far done nothing and it is posi-
bic that one of the best opportunities that
may occur in many years for the study
OF solar phenomena may pass away with
out any advantage being taken of it,
The Naval Observatory is awake to the
Importance of the occasion, and has
asked Congress for an appropriation of
$4,000 for the purpose of sending of
seven expeditions, two of which it is de-
signed to seEd to Montana, two to Texas,
two to Colorado, and one to Wyoming,
each to consist of three astronomers. The
sum asked for was simply to pay travel
ing expenses and the cost of transporting
and setting up the instruments in their
temporary observatories, nothing being
requested for salaries, as the most emf.
nent astronomers will gladly volunteer
their services for such an important oc.
casion.-ScientJtc american.

Gold in INDIAN,

There is gold in the land Of indian.
Captain Burton's expedition returned to
Alexandria on April 30, after an absence
of eighteen weeks. He found evidences
of ancient mining operations, and
brought back with him twenty five tons
of specimens, including all the precious
metals, turquoise, alabaster, sulphur,
coins, inscriptions, fragments of glass
and potteries and variety Of relics, from
thirty-two ruined cities. He discovered
important traces of gold and quartz,
threaded with veins of silver, yielding,
according to correspondent of the
London Times, Is per cent to careless
process. The inhabitants of indian have
been brigands for hundreds Of years, and
are now exceedingly hostile to strangers
but the khedve intends to work his new
property and to protect the miners whom
he will send thither. Captain Burton de-
scribes it as land of ruined mines, with
shafts, tunnels, furnaces, workmen's
towns, and princely cities-a land once
rich and prosperous as mining could
make it, and now the very picture of
dreary desoletion. On the bank of \
wild watercourse he found the ruins of a
beautiful little temple, built of white
and variegated alabaster. The northern
wall had been washed away, and the ad-
jscent bed was strewn with fragments of
columns, vases and capitals, all cut in the
simplest and purest style of Greek art.
This is ancient indian, where the chill
dren of Israel, after the Exodus, made
war upon the mining population, slew
their kings, burnt thsir cities and spoiled
them of gold, silver, brass, iron, tin, and
lead, jewels of gold, chains and bracelets
rings, earrings and tablets" the wrought
jewels of gold, at the command of Noses,
being brought into the tabernacle as
memorial.

Some Odd Witticlsms.

Most witticisms, especially jokes and
puns, lose something of their flavor when
repeated. But surely the following pun,
made by an English wit on a gentleman
famous for his liberality, reads we'll:
"That's man." said the punster, "who
carries his aversion to niggardliness SO
far as to even detest mean tempera-
ture."
Scarcely any OF the savageness of DR..
Johnson's reply to an authoress escapes
in repeating it. She sent him a manu-
script poem, with the remark, al have
other irons in the fire. IL advise you.

address to pompous dandy whom he
once met in the street are only family

said the impudent joker, "msy take
the liberty OF asking if you are any one

The audacity of Gabrielle, famous
singer of the last century, can be appre-
ciated, even in her words. Catherine
III of Russia, invited her to sing n; St.
Petersburg. Gabrielli demanded five
thousand ducats in compensation.
give thousand ducatsw exclaimed
the Empress. III do not pay that sum
to any of my field marshals."
"In that case" replied the bold singer,
'your Majesty has nothing to do but to
make these field marshals sing"
The audacity of the reply amused
Catherine, and the exorbitant syrcn re-
ceived her ducats.

UNKNOWN Misunderstanding to an
English writer, there are four vast areas
which have never been traycrsed by CIV
ilized man, and which among them CON
stitute about one-seventeenth Of the whole
area Of the globe. OF these the greatest
is the Antarctic region, the extent OF
which Is about seventy five times that Of
Great Britain; the second lies about the
North pole; the third is In Central Africa,
and the fourth in Western Australia.
The areas Of these unknown regions OF

Thursday Evening. May 10, 1878.
GENERAL, REMARKS. - This has been n
bright. pleasant day.
The advices from European markets and from
New York being favorable. there was an advance
to-day in most Of the grades of Cotton, and the
demand being active, the sales reached 5000
bales. During the week there has been an adj
vance OF 'a@2sc on the lower grades with sales
OF 400 bales. The general opinion is that the
Improvement Of feeling in Liverpool and Man
chester Indicates the existence of an opinion
over there that the Russo English difficulty will
soon reach peaceful solution.
The receipts of Flour this week have been
about 1000 bbls in excess Of those of last week.
Only moderate business in this commodity
has been done in the wholesale trade, though
there was good demand for job lots. The
sales to-day footed up 100 bbls.
During the week Pork has nomnally fallen
25c q Dbl. There is a large supply. and the de-
mand is limited. Receivers seem to be con-
tented with supplying the wants of the iobbing
trade.
The sales of Corn to-day amounted to 1850
sacks at from so to 53e z bushel according to
quality. There is pretty good stock with con-
siderable inquiry and steady prices.
There is no unsold stock of Bulk Corn on the
market. and large arrivals expected We're all
sold previous to shipment.
