The Circumpolar Stars.

There Is a strange unforgettable Sensa-
ton i'm the first voyage from our high
northern latitude TO the southern hemi-
sphere. Night after night the old ia
miliar stars. the constant occupants OF
our sky at home, sink lower and lower
In the north and disappear. while new
lights rise to shine upon us from the
south.
But besides the disappearance of old
friends and the coming into sight of
stranger stars, the known stars that still
remain TO us adopt most unfamiliar at
titudes, and these become, more and more
perplexiug the further south we go. Lord
orion stands on his head I'm the exact at
titude Of a little city Arab turning n
cartwheel: the long procession OF the
zodiac, all In turn suffer the same iuver-
sion; Pegasus alone, a topsy-turvy con-
stellation with us pursues his course
across the sky with head upraised.
Even the moon seems altered from the
moon we know I'm Britain: the mournful
face that watched US there is no longer
recognizable as such, since we see his
spotty globe inverted. The other chief
features special TO the southern heavens
are the presence OF the two Magelinic
Clouds. 90 which there is nothing to cor
respond in the northern sky.
Then close TO the Southern Cross we
find the Coal Sack. great hole I'm the
