Almost everybody had a piece of smoked glass or daik glas through which totako a peep at the iT'o uomeita, and it is safe to say that al" ? everybody except tho astronomers wit i di.-f satisfied with it. To the naked eye.thiouh smoked glass, nothing could bo seen ex cept a very small black npot, that passed very slowly from east to west through the jwr quarter of tho sun's disk. Many imp. -lent persons persisted in looking at the mid a good whilo before tho tinnsit commenced, and were blinded by the liht, that they cou'd not t-ce the tiny dot or a planet mi -n it did jolt in au appear ance on the brazn faoe of old Sol. Others looked thioisgh opeia glares or small tel escojies and were rewarded -with a rather better iow than they couH get with tho naked eye. One enthusiastic youn lady di-claicdthc spectacle "awfully slsjndid and superbly magnificent a dear little black dot exactly like the head or a hair pin."

What difference does it. make t us whether tho sun is 1) or 11)3 million miles oil: Wo can't increase or dimmish the distance nor alter tho size of tho sun no nutiPi- how earnestly we nayjbtrivo to do so." But to the astronomers, who are not " average men" the transit is regarded as of tho ulmi.st importance aud they gazed ou it 1 mm begiuuiug to end and made the most careful annotations of their observations.

Owin- to tho cloudy condition of tho sky at. 0 o'clock, they were unabio to catch tho exr-c, time of contact. Tho first sight i hey got of the planet was 9h., -10ui. and J.",s., Washington time, at which time the planet hail passed about its own diameter across tho suu's face, lluudiods of penons visited Mr. (Jill's rooms to get a weep at the wonder ful spectacle aud were well lepaid.
