The Transit.

There was a large crowd Of
automatically inclined people
yesterday at Professor Friends
observatory to witness the transit
through his telescope. Venus
came in On the lower edge of
the suns disc at S:26 in the
morning and passed out of sight
at 1912 and 81 seconds. Dur
ing the transit the planet looked
like black spot, bearing about
the same relation to the sun as
a ten-cent piece does to a milk
pan. The day was clear and
not a single cloud obscured the
Carson sky. The ladies and
gentlemen who visited the OBJ
servatory pronounced the APP
pearance of Venus all that their
fancy had painted it, and sighed
TO think that they would all be
dead before another opportunity
presented itself of seeing Venus
with the sun for a background.
