THIS DAILY EVENING TOMOGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONI) AY, MAY 2, 1870. THE TRANSIT OF YEXUS. Extensive Preparation tor lu Observation In tin-many. Dr. Drechsler, of Dreflden, recently 'de livered a lecture in that city on the prepara tions in Germany for the observation of the transit of Venus in 1874. lie said that the North German Government selected last year commiHfiion of astronomers to take prepara tory steps, and to report an estimate of the cost of the undertaking. This commission consisted of the astronomers Hansen, of Gotha; Argelander, of JJonn; Taschen, of Sohwerin; Druhna, of Leipsio; Forster, of Berlin; Auwers, of Gotha; and Winnecke, in Carlsruhe. The commission held fire sittings in Berlin, from the 12."th to the 2!th of October last, under the presidency of Pro fessor Hansen. The director of the St. Petersburg Observatory, Professor Struve, was invited to attend the discussions, in order to come to an understanding about the place of observation to be chosen by Ilussia; as veil as Professor Hove for the discussion of meteorological relations, and Professor Kollner in reference to spectroscopic obser vations. Four places are proposed for ob serving the transit, two of which are upon the northern and two upon the southern hemisphere, and each aa far removed in lon gitude as possible for correct observation. The first-named are in the neighborhood of the east coast of Asia, in or near Japan; the latter upon the islands between the Cape of Good Hope and New Zealand. Aa regards the methods of observation the following Vfere proposed: 1, hcliometrical measure ments; 1', determination of the ingress and egress; photographio and spectroscopic surveys. It is also proposed that the expedi tions shall be used for further astronomical researches, for photographic, magnetic, me teorological and pendulum observations, as well as for scientific purposes in general. Eaeh expedition will consist of two astrono mers, two technical assistants, a photogra pher, and a servant. The following instru ments were adduced as requisite for the ob servations: Heliometer, instruments for me teorological observations, spectroscopic and photographic apparatus. The commission elected the astronomers Anwers, Bruhns, Forster, and Winnecke to make out an estimate of the costs of the ex peditions. They have since handed in their report to the Government. The costs, taking into account the fact that a portion of the in struments will be borrowed, fall into three rubrics: 1. Costs of the astronomical outfit; 'J. Personal costs; 3. Costs of transportation. If the North German marine undertake the transportation and protection, the cost of the four expeditions will ' be about fifty-eight thousand thalers; but if the vessels for trans portation have to be hired, the cost will be one hundred and nineteen thousand thalers. It is also brought into account that a great portion of the costs will serve for the obser vation of the transit to occur in 1882. Both opportunities must be used, since the next following transit of Venus does not take place until the year 2004. It is expected that the Reichstag will grant the funds necessary for the undertaking, as much for the honor of Germany as for the advancement of science. A Mississippi (Steamer A correspondent of the Boston Traveller writes as follows: The boats on the Mississippi are known and famed for their colossal proportions. The construction of a Mississippi river steamer is somewhat peculiar. The finer ones are built with horizontal engines, thus placing the ma chinery all below and leaving the null one immense, stupendous prairie, while various parts of the cabin deck outside the saloon are divided into sections for the convenience of passengers and crew. For instance, that portion of the deck aft of the starboard wheel house is the back yard, where the youngsters roll hoop, play marbles, jump ropes, swing, etc. Opposite is the croquet ground, where the young Venuses and Adonises assemble to enjoy that jolly, chatting, love-making, heart rending game. Forward of the wheel-house, on the same side, the theatre is usually situated, accommodating from ten to twelve hundred people, while on the oppesite side is the barber shop, tobacconist and supper rooms. Inside the saloon one looks tip about four or five stories high; and at the forward part of the saloon is the elevator, transporting people to each floor almost instantly. The space between the sides forming the saloon is, of course, covered by an ample roof, to keep the "weather" out; on top of this we find a magnificent garden, in which orange and magnolia blossoms fill the atmosphere with sweetest fragrance. The last third por tion of the park is divided into a sort of mu seum, in which wild animals are displayed in wire cages, while the feathered tribe finds many representatives, of which the domestic poultry, intended for consumption, is the most prominent. How can "one keep from eujoying a trip under such circum stances? There will always be found, of course, hosts of all classes, kin and kindred, from the latest girl of the period and the lisping, fawning dandy, to the hardy, corn fed "gals" and raw-boned frontiersmen of old "Kentuck" and "Arkansor" the former, with the female portion of the latter, group ing in the after part of the cabin, and the latter gathering about the stove in the for ward part of the boat, enjoying the salivatory phenomena so common to this portion of the country.

Let me earnestly aid sincerely, looking to your welfare and that oi me mate ana country, urge upon you tne necessity or ntung yourselves, as you best can, for a full appreciation of the responsibility and a wise exercise of the privilege.

Chilpbeh'b Balls. In an article on the excessive indulgence of children, the Queen newspaper of London observes: "As for the juvenile balls and parlies, if we had to cen tralize the evil management of children, we should certainly place it in these deplorable Catherines; they take the bloom off the still unripened fruit, make men and women of little children, and turn out LUue, used-up, disillusionized creatures at an age when, if they had been left to the simple amusements natural to their condition, tney would nave entered the world with the keen sense of en joyment, the faculty for pleasure, and the delicious romanticism which makes half the charm of youth both to itself and others. There is to be a slaughter of the innocents of yet another kind, and of those of older years, of which we can hardly speak too se verely. "We mean the premature knowledge of evil which it is now the fashion to allow. The lovely freshness of girls is daily be coming more and more a thing of the past, a beauty of tradition, and a generation is rising up more knowing at eighteen tnan tneir grandmothers at eighty. It is undoubtedly a reaction from 'missishness,' but it is in a ter ribly painful form." REAL. ESTATE AT AUCTION.
