Samuel Ramsey, of the committee to Sc
cure public landings and the placing OF
buoys in, the harbor, reported that in Feb
ruary 5000 was appropriated by the city
Tor the purchase OF anchors and chain,
the weight of the anchors to be not less
than 400 pounds nor more than 5000
pounds each. and the size of the chain to
be not less than rs inches in thickness
nor more than ~ inches, with a length OF
80 fathoms. They also found that the an
chors and chain had been ordered and are
expected to be soon placed in position.
The question of a public landing at the
foot of Madison street has also been COW
cred by an appropriation of $l.4O0
made IN June. The piles for it are now
being creosoted. There is a difference
OF opinion among those having special
knowledge with regard to the placing OF
the buoys, but the best sentiment appears
to be that buoys should be placed at the
head of the harbor in from thirty to thirty
five fathoms Of water, so that vessels
could attach themselves to the buoys and
discharge there. No danger need be ap-
pretended to the harhor by the discharge
of ballast ut any place not under twenty
!athoms. On inquiry the committee
learned that the city treasury was in
condition to pay an appropriation if one
should be obtained for the placing of two
more buoys. The committee was requested
to make application to the city council for
an appropriation for that purpose.
Mr.. Graves stated that he had been told
by Harry White that a large delegation of
Odd Fellows on their way from Victoria to
the national encampment at Portland were
to stop at Tacoma; that the local lodges
were trying to get the delegation to stop
here before going to Tacoma. and that
they wanted tie Chamber of Commerce to
assist i'll entertaining the visitors and to
prepare suitable souvenir for them. J.
I. Ronald, {. 7. Conover and ". H. Lew
ellyn were appointed committee with
power to act in cooperation with commit
tees from the Odd Fellows. with view to
getting the delegates to stop over here on
their way south.

m. The slow and majestic motor

system. The slow and majestic motion
of this planet, its great period and dis
tancc, and tho wonderful magniicence
of it's rings and moons, seemed to
render it fitting object to guard the
frontiers OF the mighty system with
which it was associated But it is a
well-llnown fact that oil the planets
exert an attraction upon ono another,
and produce certain orbital disturb
anccs, which are called perturbations.
Near the close of the eighteenth
century, when the planetary motions
had been observed with great care, and
comparatively accurate knowledge of
their perturbations had been acquired,
certain unexplained motions of Saturn
gave rise to the belief that another
planet revolved around the sun in a
vast orbit far beyond that of the
'ringed world" On the 18th of March,
1871, while Sir William Herschel was
engaged in examining some stars in the
constellation Gemin, his attention was
attracted to small star of remarkable
appearance, which fortunately hap
pencd to pass into the field of his great
telescope. He examined the strange
star with higher magnifying powers,
when it appeared greatly increased in
dimensions, and exhibited sensible
disk.
After watching it for several evenings
Hcrschel noticed that it's position
changed among the stars, and not even
dreaming that the body was planet he
announced to the world that he had
discovered new and remarkable
comet. But it required only u short
nxrfr, 1,n II
world that the object was member of
the solar system. 1t is now known as
the planet Uranus, the seventh in order
of distance from the solar orb. This
planet is situated at IL mean distance of
1,771, 600, 900 of miles from the sun. and
requires eightyfour of our years to
complete its vast circuit around the
luminary. Here we have described a
brilliant astronomical discovery, which
may be regarded as the result of merely
accidental observation.
For many years after the discovery
OF Uranus the movements of this planet
were such as to battle the most accu-
rate calculations. While the planet
Saturn came around to it's place true to
the minute and second, even after it's
journey of nearly thirty years, it was
found that the planet Uranus did not
strictly conform to the path assigned to
it; and it was finally suggested by sew
eral astronomers that another planet
revolved around the sun outside the
orbit of Uranus, which disturbed the
movement OF this planet. and produced
its perturbations. Sir John Herschel
had carefully studied the movements of
Uranus, and SO firmly did he believe in
the existence of another planet, more

ocular demonstration"
On the 22d of September, lS4G, Lever
ricr Wrote to Prof. Gale, of Berlin, ..1r
assistance in searching for the imagina-
ry planet and requested him to d.
rect his great telescope to certain
point in the heavens. Prof. Gale on
that same evening did as requested, and
after few moments observation he
discovered a star of the eighth magni-
tude which he knew to be a stranger
in that region of the heavens MS it was
not laid down on the most accurate
maps. This proved to lie the predicted
planet which was discovered within
less than two diameters of the moons
disk from the spot indicated by Lever
rier. The brilliant discovery of this
planet was the result of pure mathc-
NAUTICAL calculations and demonstrates
the ability of man to grapple with the
grand problems of astronomy. Far
sweeping in the depths of space, unseen
by mortal eyes. this new world pursued
its solemn journey, rejecting back the
light of the solar orb, steadily obedient
to the grand law of universal gravita-
ton which held the old planets true to
their changing orbits.
This planet has received the name of
Neptune. The news of it's discovery
spread in every direction and filled the
world with establishment and admira-
ton. Neptune is the most remote plan
ct from the sun known to astronomers
the far-off sentinel of the planetary
system. 1t requires l65 of our years to
complete u single revolution around the
sun, at the enormous distance of 2.775.-
100000 of miles! Such is a brief history
OF one of the grandest achievements of
the human mind, and the world will
always be glad to honor the names
of Leverrier and Adams, who, by their
remarkable knowledge of the heavens,
won for themselves an enviable fame
and position in the foremost ranks of
modern astronomcrs.-Arthu X. Bart
