The hitter does not remain fixed at one definite spot on the surface of the earth, but moves slightly according to a somewhat complicated lu.v. Its whole ranire of motion, however, can be included within a circle of sixty feet in radius, and. therefore, to determine its path accurately, a long series of most accurate observations, pxtmded over a Ions' period of time, is necessary. Such a series has been carried on by Prof. Doolittle with most accurate results at his former observatory at Lehigh university, and such a series he is now carrying on with the beautiful new instruments of his present charge. In the same building are also a h meridian circle and a three-incuniversal transit, both mounted so that their telescopes swing in a north and south vertical plane. For use in observations made with these latter there is a sidereal clock and a ehromograph. The clock was on exhibition at the World's Fair. One of its most distinguished features is that by means of a little electric motor, operated by a battery of six Gordon cells, it winds itself once every hour, and hence is independent of the forgetfulness of man. requiring no attention but that necessary to keep the battery in running order.

The original intentions of the donor were not carried Tint, how- ever, until two years ago when the president director. Prof. Charles S. Doolittle, then professor of mathemai-- ! ics and astronomy at Lehigh univers- ity, was called to the similar chair at Philadelphia. Under his direction has been added to the possession of the University of Pennsylvania one of the finest and best equipped institutions for astronomical research in existence.

The lens, which is the largest one in the country east of Washington, was made toy Rrashear in Allegheny, and formed part of hi3 exhifiit at the World's Fair in 1S93. Mr. Brashear is the only man in the "orld who has developed the art of grinding glass to such a perfection that he can produce an absolutely fiat surface. He can grind glass correct to any given outline within one millionth of an inch. It would be natural to 6uppose that a lens of his make would curate time under all conditions of temperature and weather. At present this clock is running at a uniform h of a secgain of less than ond per day. To start in a fitting manner the isstitution thus equipped on the career of scientific usefulness, the officers and friends of the university gathered on the observatory grounds a few days ago. The provost of ths university, C. C. Harrison, introduced the orator for the occasion, Prof. Simon Newcomb, late superintendent of the Nautical almanac office in Washington, and the leading mathematical astronomer of this country. Dr. b spoke very appropriately on the "Problems of Astronomy," many of which will be investigated by the institution for which the address was delivered. The observatory so equipped and directed, and started so well, can not fail in its great purpose of increasing thi useful knowledge of mankind. HENRY P.
