The zodiacal urns. The zodiac is a broad
circle fa the _heasens, extendiag in breadth
from the tropic of eaprioorn to the tropic of
cancer. It is about sixteen degrees in width.
The ecliptic is situated in the middle of the
zodiac. The zodiac, contains the twelve con
stellations or signs through which the sun
passes is his apparent annual course. This
circle is supposed to be divided into 360
equal parts, called degrees, and these again
into minutes and seconds.

is, that the figures um the signs or constella

Their flocks were inereased, and the ram

When the sun enters the constellation of
Cancer, he discontinues his progress towards
the north pole, and begins to move back to
wards the south pole, and this retrograde
motion is represented 'aerie crab, Which

The believer in moonology will no doubt
be vended In learn that when the moon's

zodiacal signs, the stars composing that sign
are so immensely far from both the earth
and thiialeon, that-they-cannot possibly - have
any influence whatever upon the earth or
any of the operations of the inhabitants of ,
the earth 1 The fixed stars nearest the
earth are at an inconceivable &Hance. It

form no adequate conception of such dis
tance. We may acquire Some faint idea of
the immense distance of the nearest of the
flied stars from the earth, by considering
that the sue is 95,000,000. of miles from the

In - conclusion, your committee would state
that the facts embodied in this report, are
such as are agreed upon by astronomers and
mathematicians—such as are. found in , the
