Celestial photography.

Celestial Photography.
From the Baltimore Sun.
One of the great works which mo-
dern science has set itself patiently
to perform is to make an exact map
of the heavens by the aid of photo
graphic camera and the telescope.
How stupendous is this work may be
realized when it is remembered that
by the unaided sight we see stars up
to the sixth magnitude, numbering in
all not more than 5000. Those of the
seventh magnitude, which the vision
must be aided to see, are twice as
numerous as all the first six put TO-
gether the eigth magnitude doubles
all before. and including the four
teenth magnitude, which bounds the
present range of the telescope, it Is
calculated that there are more than
40, 900, 900 stars. Astronomy and pho
Biography have set themselves to
work to make complete charts of the
heavens and give accurate place to
every one of these 40 900 900 stars In
describing the process the New York
Tribune SAYS that Photographic
plate "a by 80 centimeters, or little
less than 10 by II inches in size, will
mical degrees. Something more than
5000 such plates therefore, will cover
the entire apparent surface of the sky.
1t Is considered better, however, To
use smaller plates; covering only two
degrees each, and OF these q, 600 are
to be employed. They will be distri
buted in lots of from 1000 TO 1900 each
among eighteen observatories in differ
ent parts of the world, and the work
will be pushed forward as rapidly as
possible. 1t may be five or six years
before 1t is entirely done. But than
by arranging in proper order the % 600
photographs we shall have a complete
aud accurate map of the visible heav-
ems, with more than 100000 stars
set down in their proper places, and
with their apparent magnitudes cor
rectly indicated. 1t will..be an achieve
mept of which both the astronomic
and Photographic arts may we'll for
ever be proud.

A TALK ABOUT NAPOLEON.
The Closing OF the French Lecture Course n,
the High School.

Il
| At the French lecture given BY Prof Fon-
tame at the High School this week the subject
taken up was Napoleon. The calm logical ex-
animation Of the character of the emperor was
in marked contrast to the usual burst of en-
thlsiasm from admiring lecturers or the savage
/ denunciations which are called forth from those
who detest his name.
| The professor touched critically upon Napo-
Icon as a general, legislator, moralist, patriot,
showing that egotism and ambition were the
dominant traits Of his character. An ambition
so absorbing that for its qualification he sacri-
feed lives without number, stopping ct moth
ing, not even appalled, at crime. What did the
great general do for France? True, he bought
II. the bubble reputation always dear to the
heart OF les Francois, but at what a cost il was
purchased! He was great legislator, it is true,
put back OF the code Napoleon, upon which his
| reputation largely rests, Portsles was the power
behind the throne to whom the credit right
| fully belongs
Tyrant without an equal, bis first crime was
the establishment of the "directoire'' when
France possessed a republican form Of govern
ment. To maintain this he demanded the sacri-
tce each year Of 100. 900 men.
He established slavery in the colonies and
sent 10000 men to St. Domingo to fight with
the negroes there who under Toussaint Ou-
venture were struggling for liberty.
His wars cost Europe 1000 900 Of men, un-
told suffering and financial loss The lecturer
met In his boyhood a woman who lived in the
| days OF Austerlitz, Elba and Waterloo. She
said to him that at the time of the disastrous
Russian campaign one saw on the highways or
In the streets Of the towns laughing children or
somoer gray boards; If perchance one in the
prime OF life were met, who, wounded or sick,
had returned from the wars, women stopped in
wonder, saying to each other with bated
breath, VOLTA un hommew At his downfall
France bad not gained foot Of territory or
advanced a single pace on the road of progress.
After Waterloo France commenced to breathe
again, though her position was most deplora-
ble-without an army, without money without
resources.
1t is said Of Napoleon: HE did too much
that was great to speak i'll of him; he did too
much that was evil to speak well of him." The
professor admitted the truth Of only the last
half of the epigram
