LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
A Hint to Scientists.

Hint to Scientists.
To the Editors of the Appeal:
As preparations are being made to make
observations and to take photographs of the
approaching transit of Venus, this idea has
been suggested to Us: First, we believe
when photograph of a planet is taken every
object within the bounds OF the picture Is
delinested; 1. {. the photograph is picture,
not simply of the whole, but of every part,
and that the parts are invisible solely on ac-
count of their minuteness. III this be true,
and re see nothing to dispute the theory, if
We separate the first picture into sections
and then take larger photographs of these
and again separate these into other sections
and again enlarge, and thus continue TO sep
srate and enlarge, we might by this means
and the use OF the microscope finally be en-
abled to bring to view very email objects,
aud obtain, for aught we know, picture of
the inhabitants of other worlds. Cannot the
experiment be made? Thi-, l think, Is our
only hope of seeing the people in the moon.
