ECLIPSE OF THE SUN To DAY.-An annular
eclipse of the sun will take place to-day and
will be partially seen on this coast. An an.
nular eclipse is ons in which the moon does
not wholly conceal the suns disk, leaving a
bright ring of light visible at the time of
greatest obscuration, about one-third of the
suns disk being concealed at the time of
greatest obscuration-at sunset. The eclipse
will begin at 3:46 P. NJ. The last contact will
be about 6:15 P. NJ, an hour and quarter
after sunset. Professor Davidson informs
the San Francisco Bulletin that the path of
the annular eclipse begins on the eastern
coast of Asia, crosses Japan, and traverses
the Pacific Ocean, reaching its southern limit
in latitude 1902 north and longitude 100 west
of Greenwich, and passing about g south of
the Hawaiian Islands. At Honolulu the
eclipse will begin at half an hour after noon,
ana by o'clock nearly nine.tenths of the
Guns surface will be obscured. The eastern
limit of the annulsr path is in the Pacific
Ocean in latitude 150 north and longitude 121'
west. The breadth of the annulus will be
one minute and twenty five seconds of arc, or
about the one-twenty- third of the diameter
of the sun. In Japan, on the central line of
the path, the anpulus will last seven minutes
and six seconds"

&Es POSTAL TELEGRAPH AID DR.
GREEN.

Capital generally puts it's best foot for.
ward. DR.. Norvin Green's objections to
system of postal telegraphy, which we pre-
sented quite fully yesterday may be taken
az the official utterances of the telegraph
company of which be is an officer. The
burden OF the objection wound up with a
plea for the purchase by the Government
OF the lines of that company in case the
Government determines to go into the pos
tai telegraph business. This fact should
be borne IN mind constantly. az it illumi.
aates the whole argument of the doctor.
But he says Congress has not the power TO
engage in a telegrsphic postal system. II
She representatives of the people shall, by
direction, establish postal telegraph, we
do not see what tenable constitutional
objections can be raised. The power to
establish post roads and postofices GER
tainly gives the power to carry at Govern
ment expense the mails over the one and
between the other. That we have hired
our mails carried Is not because we might
not nave done it by Government couriers.
1t will certainly occur to the doctor that
the Constitution does not give the power
afhrmatively TO hire the mails carried.
Whence comes it, then? Besides this,
when the Constitution was framed the
present modes of conveying intelligence
were unknown. 1t cannot, then, be said
shat the Constitution was framed with the
Ev1esns OF carriage in view. The telegraph
as an avenue of intelligence was undiscov-
cred, and it cannot therefore be held that
the trainers OF our organic law
intended to conine the country to
the system then in vogue. No;
the power to maintain postal system car
ries with it the power to use any of the i'm
proved methods of carrying intelligence

or communicated by signals known as

stitutional objection. The establishment
of. line is not prohibited, because it could
not be foreseen. 1t will interfere with the
right of no State, because States do not
engage in mail-carrying service in any
form. The word mail is to be construed
according to the light of the day. It is
