ta these sublime line Hemer expresses the
failing of every refined and sensitive tout te
contemplating the full orbed moon. Before
Mm light of science dawned unnumbered peeU
sang the aef t radiance of the silvery moon,
M million el men worshiped her. Se
tMeply we tb.it feeling Implanted that the
taoneMMtiU who gained power very early In
Southwestern Asia found It Impossible for
fra te eradicate it, and even the upright
patriarch of Us thought it necessary te pre-
vrv muh ee eau net eeen guilty el ttabfanism:
"IT 1 beheld the sun when it shlued, or the
"moon walking In brightness; and my heart
hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth bath
tdaed my hand: this also were an iniquity te
be punished by the judge: for 1 theuld have
Rented the Ged that Is above-."
But when the Aryan race reae te power
acleece rapidly displaced poetic idolatry, and
fe 2,800 years our satellite baa been the sub
ject et unwearied study and conjecture. As
It la se very near us compared with sun and
stars, we are new almost as familiar with its
general structure as with our own glebe.
But in acquiring this knowledge scientists
have had te contend with a thousand delu
sions. Almest Innumerable fancy sketches
have been written te satisfy the popular
crating for knowledge, especially en the one
Brest question, "Is the moon inhabltcdr The
most recent and successful was that which
appeared in 1835, written by Richard Adams
Lecke, It raised The New Yerk Bun at once
te a leading position in the country, and
when the publishers issued a pamphlet edi
tion of 00,000 copies every one was bought
within a few weeks.
In 1850 a much larger edition was publish
ed in pamphlet form by Richard Oewans, New
Yerk, with an explanation and extracts show
ing hew many intelligent men had been de
ceived by the apparently scientific character
of the production. The succeeding article is
a condensation of the original paper and
some ',: the comments. The occasion was
remarkably propitious. Blr Jehn Herschel
had gene td the Cape with a telescope con
structed en a plan unknown te the general
public. Information et his work was long in
reaching Great Britain, and communication
thence te the United States was very slew.
Be there was abundant time for the scheme

episode In New Yerk journalism. Here It is:

1 CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.
ITrem the supplement te the Edinburgh
Journal of Science. 1
In this unusual addition te our journal
we bare the happiness of making known te
the British public, and thenee te the whole
civilised world, recent discoveries in astron
omy which will build an imperishable monu
ment te the age in which we live, and confer
upon the present generation of the human
race a proud distinction through all future
time. It has been poetically said that the
stars et heaven are the hereditary rgelia of
man us the intellectual sovereign of the ani
mal creation. He may new fold thezodlae
around him with a loftier consciousness of
bis mental supremacy.
It is impossible te contemplate any great
astronomical discovery without feelings
closely allied te a sensation of awe, and
nearly akin te these with which a departed
spirit may be supposed te discover the reali
ties of a f uture state. Bound by the irrevo
cable laws et nature te the glebe en which
we lite, creatures "close shut up In infinite
expanse," It seems like acquiring a fearful
supernatural power when any remote mys
terious works of the Creater yield tribute te
our curiosity.
It seems almost a presumptuous usurpation
of powers denied us by the divine will when
man, in the pride and confidence of his skill,
steps forth, far beyond the apparently natural
boundary of his privileges, and demands the
secrets and familiar fellowship of ether
worlds. We are assured that when the Im
mortal philosopher te whom mankind is in
debted for the thrilling wonders new first
made knevn had at length adjusted his new
and stupendous apparatus with a certainty et
success, he solemnly paused several hours be
fore be commenced hlsobservatiens, that he
might prepare bis own mind for discoveries
which he knew would fill the minds of myri
ads of bis fellow men with astonishment, and
secure bis name a bright, it net transcendent
conjunction with that of his venerable father
te all posterity. And well might he pause!
Frem the hour the first human pair opened
their eyes te the glories of the blue firmament
above them, tbere has been no accession te
human knowledge at all comparable in sub
lime interest te that which he has been the
honored agent in supplying; and we are taught
te believe that, when a work, already prepar
ing for the press, in which his discoveries are
embodied in detail, shall be laid before the
public, they will be found of incomparable
importance te some of the grandest opera
tions of civilized life.
Te render our enthusiasm intelligible we
will state at once that by means et a tele
scope of vast dimensions and an entirely new
principle, the younger Herschel, at hlsobserv hlsebserv hlsobserv
atery in the southern hemisphere, has al
ready made the most extraordinary discov
eries in every planet of our solar system ; has
discovered planets in ether solar systems; has
obtained a distinct view of objects in the
moon, fully equal te that which the unaided
eye commands et terrestrial objects at t be dis
tance et a hundred yards; has affirmatively
settled the question whether this satellite be
inhabited, and by what order of beings; has
firmly established a new theory of imetary
fibenemena, and has solved or corrected near
y every leading problem of mathematical
astronomy.
Fer our early and almost exclusive lufor lufer lufor
tnatien concerning tliee facts we are indebt
ed te the devoted friendship of Dr. Andrew
Grant, the pupil et the elder, and for several
years past the inseparable coadjutor of the
younger Herschel. The amanuensis et the
latter at the Cape of Geed Hepe, and the in
defatigable superintendent of his telescepe
during the wbole jwried of Ita construction
and operation, Dr. (Iraut has been enabled te
supply us with Intelligence equal, In general
Interest nt least, te that which Dr. Herschel
himself bas transmitted te the Royal society.
Indeed our correspondent awiurei us that tbe
voluminous documents new Ix-fere a commit
tee of that institution ceutain little roeretlian
details and mathematical illustrations of the
facte communicated te us in hl own ample
correspondence. Fer perniislen te Indulge
his friendship in communicating this invalu
able information te us, Dr. Grant and our eur
selvee are indebted te the magnanimity of
Dr. Herschel, who, fur above all mercenary
considerations, has thus signally honored and
rewarded his fellow laborer in the field ,of
science. The engravings of lunar animals and
ether objects, and of the phases of the several
plauets, are accurate copies of dra ings taken
in the observatory by Herbert Heme, Esq.,
who accompanied the lest powerful scries of
reflectors from Londen te the Cape, and su
perintended their erection; and he bas thus
recorded the iroefs of their triumphant sue
cegs. TUB WOMlERrULTXUteCOJ'E.
It is well known that tb great reflecting
telesce of the late elder Herschel, with an
object gloss four feet in diameter, and a tube
forty feet in length, possesses a magnifying
power of mere than six tbeuaiid time. Ilia
a small orlien of this power was ever ad ad
vuntagfeutly applied te the nearer astro
nomical ebjucU; for the deficiency et lisbt
sniyaatUM flair
tUaOnct thaa wha viewed with a
power of a third or ferth of tela ettaat.
Accordingly the powers which aaf ttaHy

and with which a made hia most mtatmtm,
dbceverle, raagd from 910 te 0, 796 aad WO
times; altaeagb, wbm taapactiag Mm deabM
and treble Bxed start, and Mm Mers distant
nebulas, be rraqinetly applied the f alt capac
ity of bis Instrument. The law of eptica, thai
an object become dim in properMoa a It l
magnined, seemed, from ita sempUAcatleit
In this powerful telype, te form an In
superable boundary te further discoveries In
tar solar system. Several years, however,
prier te the death et this vaeeraWe astron
omer, he conceived tt practicable td con
tract an improved tartaibf parabolic ana
spherical reflectors, which, by anMftg all the
meritorious points In the Gregorian and
Newtonian lastrnmeets. with the highly In
tereatieg achroraatfe kliscetefybt Delland,
would, te a trtalttegree, remove Mm formi fermi formi
eVjW obstruction. Ills plan evinced the most
profound reasarch In optical tdeece, and the
most dexterous lugenulty In mechanical con
trivance; but accumulating tnflrmltiea, and
eventually death, prevented tte axparinMntal
application. Hi aeU.tna preaset Blr Jehn
Benchel, who had been nursed and cradled
In the observatory, and a practical astrono
mer from bis boyhood, was se fully convinced
of the value et the theory that he determined
upon tatting it, at whatever coat. Within
two yean et his father's death ha com
pleted bit new apparatus, and adapted It te
the old telescope with neatly perfect kubceta.
He found that the magnifying power et 0,000
times, When applied te the moon, which was
tha severest criterion that could be selected,
produced, under these new reflectors, a fecal
object of exquisite distinctness, tree from
every achromatic obscurity, and containing
the highest degree of light which the gttal
speculum could collect from that luminary.
The distance being 340,000 mile and the
magnifying power 0,000 time, tha result It a
simple matter of division (340,000 divided by
6,000 equals 40); objection the moon could be
teen as clearly at at forty miles distance en
earth. And lim it ttMatd. that nature bad
placed an eternal limit Higglnt, Fontana,
Gregery, Newton, Delland and Herschel bad
retorted te every' material for the composition
of lease and reflectors, but in vain. At
length Blr Jehn, In consultation with Blr
David Brewster, suggested that the primary
fecal image might be conveyed into a dark
apartment (where no tube would be neces
sary te shut off the lateral light), and there
received and acted upon by subsidiary re
flectors. It was an inspiration!
He next suggested a seriat of specula te
correct aberration and a final illuminated
microscope. Blr David sprang from his
chair in an ecstasy et conviction, exclaim
ing, "Theu art the man I" His enthusiasm
went te far at te believe that even the en
tomology of the moon might be studied the
insects might be seen as they crawled. The
Duke of Sussex, the munificent patron of sci
ence and the arte, at onee contributed 10,000,
His majesty (King William IV) asked if the
measure would aid in the improvement of
navigation, and being assured that it would,
at once guaranteed from the naval fund the
needed 70,000. An extremely elaborate
and scientific report of the construction of
the needed instruments and their transporta
tion te the Cape is emitted. Alse a full de
scription of the locality, en a plateau, and
the darkened chamber in which the fecal
image was first presented and then remagni
fled, se te speak, upon an enormous canvas.
At this point The Journal deems it neces
sary te clearness te fellow the exact state
ment et Dr. Grant: On the night of Jan. 10,
the moon having advanced within four days
of her mean libratien, Sir Jehn adjusted his
Instruments for the inspection of her eastern
limb. The whole immense power et his tele
scope was applied, and te its fecal Image
about one-halt of the power of his microscope.
On removing the screen et the latter the field
of view was covered throughout its entire
area with a beautifully distinct and even
vivid representation et bosaltie rock. Its
color was a greenish brown and the width of
the columns, as defined by their interstices en
the canvas, was invariably tweuty-eigbt
Inches. Ne fracture whatever appeared in
the mass first presented, but iu a few seconds
a shelving pile appeared of five or six col
umns width, which showed their figure te be
hexagonal, and their articulations similar te
these et tbe basaltic formation at Staffa.
This precipitous shelf was profusely covered
with a dark red flower precisely similar te
the Papaver rhcoes, or rose peppy, et our
sublunary cornfields; and this was tbe first
organic production of nature iu a foreign
world ever revealed te the eyes of men.
IA1NAB MOUNTAINS, VALKS AND fORESTS.
The rapidity of the moon's ascension, or
rather of the earth's diurnal rotation, being
uearly equal te flve hundred yards in a sec
ond, would have effectually prevented the
inspection, or even the discovery of objects
se mhiute as these, but for the admirable
mechanism which constantly regulates, under
the guidance of the sextant, the required alti
tude of the lens. But its operation was
found te be se consummately perfect that
tbe observers could detain the object upon
the field et view for any period tbey might
desire. Tbe specimen of lunar vegetation,
however, which they bad already seen, had
' decided a question et tee exciting an interest
te Induce them te retard iu exit. It bad
demonstrated that the moon bas au atmos
phere constituted similarly te our own, and
capable et sustaining organized, and there
fore, most probably, animal life. The basal
tic rocks continued te pass ever the inclined
canvas plane, through three successive diam
eters, when a verdant declivity of great
beauty apeared, which occupied two mere.
This was preceded by another mess of nearly
the former height, at the base of which they
were at length delighted te perceive that
novelty, a lunar forest. Tbe trees for a
period et ten mlnuten wcre of one unvaried
kind, and unlike any I have sctn, except the
largest kind of yews in the E igllsh church
yards, which they in some respite resemble.
These nere followed by a level green plain,
which, as measured by the painted circle en
our canvas of forty-nine feet, must have
been mere than halt a mile In breadth; and
then appeared as fine a forest et firs, un
equivocal firs, as I have ever seen cherished
in the besom of my native mountains.
Passing the next range of hills, we found a
valley in which magnificent fenwte skirted
rich meadows, and here we were blest with
the sight of animals. In the shade of the
weeds en the southeastern side we beheld con
tinuous herds of brown quadrupeds, having
ajl the external characteristics of the bison,
but mera diminutive than auy species et the
bee genus in our natural history. Its tail is
like that ftf our bes grunniens; but in its semi
circular horns, the hump en its shoulders, and
the depth of its dewlap, and the length of its
shaggy hair, it closely resembled the secles
te which I first compared it. It hed, how
ever, ene widely distinctive feature, which
we afterwards found common te nearly every
lunar quadruped we have discovered; namely,
a remarkable fleshy appendage ever the eyes,
erasing the whele breadth et the forehead
and united te the ears. We could most dis
tinctly perceive this hairy veil, which was
shaped like the upper front outline of a cap
known te the ladies as Mary Queen et Scots
cap, and was lifted and lowered by means of
the ears. It immediately occurred te tbe
acute mind nt Dr. Herschel that this was a
providential contrivance te protect the eyca
of the animal from the great extremes of
light and darkness te which all the inhab
itants et our side et tbe moon arc periodically
subjected.
Thenext animal jpercolved would be class
ed en earth as a monster. It was of a bluish
lead color, about the tize of a goat, with a
head ami beard like him, and a single horn,
slightly inclined forward from the perpen
dicular. Tbe female was destitute of the
born and beard, but had a much longer tail.
It was gregarious, and chiefly abounded en
the aocliviteus gladesef the weeds. In eleg
ance of symmetry it rivaled the antelope,
and like him It seemed au agile, sprightly
creature, running with great spued, and
springing from the green turf with all the
unaccountable antics of a j eung lamb or kit
ten. This lieautiful creature utrenled us the
most exquisite amusement. The mimicry et
its movements upon our white painted can
vas was as faithful and luminous as that of
animals within a few yards of tbe camera
ebxeura, w hen seen pictured upon its tyra
pan. Frequently when attempting te put
our fingers upeu its beard, it would suddenly
bound away into oblivion, a if conscious of
our earthly Impertinence; but then ethers
would nppear, whom we could net present
nibbling th herbage, say or de what we
would te them.
On examining the renter of this delightful
valley we found a large branching river,
abounding with lovely islands and water

although we Were. net gratified In this re
spect we could easily guess the purpose with
which they plunged their long necks te deep
ly beneath the water. Near the upper ex
tremity of one of these Islands we obtained a
glimpse of a ttrange amphibious creature, of
a spherical form, which rolled with great ve
locity across the pebbly beach, and was lest
tight of In the strong current which set off
from this angle of the Island. We were com
pelled, however; te leave this brolifie valley
unexplored, 6ii account bf clouds which were
evidently accumulating In the lunar atmos
phere, our own being perfectly translucent.
But this was Itself an interesting discovery,
for mere distant observers had questioned or
deaied the existence of any humid atmosphere
in this planet
VABIETIXs or LOHAB LOT.
We bore with tome Impatience the cloudy
weather of the 11th and I8th but the even
ing of Jan. 13 was ene of pearly purity and
loveliness. Dr. Herschel Informed us that he
theuld direct our reeearrhet te the parts
numbered 3, II, 20 and SO in Blunt's map, and
which are respectively known In the modern
catalogue by the name of Endymion, Cleo Clee
modes, Langrenus and Ietavius.(Te the care
ful inspection of these, and the region be
tween them and the extreme Western tint) be
proposed te devote the whoie et this highly
favorable night. Takiug then our twenty
five mile breadth of surface, upon the field of
view and reducing It te a slew movement,
we carefully Inspected the lefty mountain
range. In them we found many extinct vol
canoes and one active. (A detailed descrip
tion is emitted.) The adjarant low land Is
fertile te excess. We counted net less than
twelve luxuriant forests, divided by open
plains, which wnved lu an ocean of verdure,
and were probably prairies like, these of
North America. In three of these we dis
covered numerous herds of quadrupeds sim
ilar te our friends the bisens in the valley of
the Unicorn, but of much larger size; and
scarcely a piece of woodland occurred in our
panorama which did net dazzle our vision
with flecks of white or red birds upon the
wing.
Dr. Herschel has classified net less than
thirty-eight species of forest trees and nearly
twice this number of plants found in this
tract alone, which are widely different te
these found In mere equatorial latitudes. Of
animals he classified uine species of mam
malia and flve of evlpara. Among the for
mer is a small kind of reindeer, the elk, the
moose, the horned bear and the biped boaver.
The lest resembles the beaver of the earth In
every ether respect than in its destitution of
a tail and its Invariable habit et walking
upon only two feet. It carries its young in
its arms like a human being ami moves with
an easy gliding motion. Its hute are con
structed better aud higher than these of
many tribes of human savages, and from the
appearance of smoke lu nearly nil et them
there is no doubt of its being acquainted with
the use of fire. Still its bead and body difTer
only in the points stated from that of the
beaver, and It was never seeu except en the
borders et lakes and rivers, in which it has
been observed te immerse for a period of
several seconds.
Thirty degrees south of this is the iramense
annular mountain, located en the accepted
maps of the moon as Cleemcdcs, and en all
the spurs of this elevation we found but one
creature a large white bird resembling the
Iterk. But the streams flowing therefrem
suite in the largest Inland sea that has been
found throughout tbe seven and a half
millions of square miles which this illum
inated slde of tbe moon contains. Its
width from east te west is 10t) miles, and
from north te south SCO miles. Its shape,
te the northward, Is net unlike tbnt of
the Bay et Bengal, and it is studded
with small islands, most et which are et ot et
cenic. Twe of these, en the eastern side, are
new violently eruptive; but our lowest mag
nifying power was tee great te exnmine them
with convenience, en account of the cloud et
smeke anil ashes which beclouded our field of
view; as seen by Lieut. Drumtnend, through
our reflecting telescope of 2,000 times, tbey
exhibited great brilliancy.
In a bay en the western side of the sea is
an island fifty-five miles long, of a crescent
form, crowded through its cntire sweep with
the most superb and wonderful natural beau
ties, both of veRetatlnii and ;eolegv. Its
tills are pinnacled wlM) tall qunrtr or j stals,
of 'se rich n yellow amloruuge hue that we nt
Drst supiesl them te 1k pointed flumes of
tire; and tueyspiing up thus from smooth
round brews et hills which are coveted as
with a velvet mantle. Een iu the enchant
ing little vallojset this winding island no
could often we these splendid natural spires,
mounting in the midst of deep green weeds,
like church steeples iu the vnlesef AVcstmore AVcstmere
land. We here first noticed the lunar palm
tree, which differs from that of our tropical
latitudes only lu the peculiarity of very large
crimson flowers, instead of the spndix pro
truded from the common calyx.
Be) end this the weeds wcre dark green,
and beyond that was every tint of our bcu bcu
sens. The hectic flush of autumn was often
seen kindled upon the cheek of earliest spring;
nud the gay drapery of summer in soma
places surrounded trees ltallcsi, as the victims
of winter. It seemed as it nil the seasons
here united hands iu a circle of perpetual
harmony. Of animals wu saw only an elegant
striped quadruricd about three feet high, like
a minlature rebra, which was always in
small herds en the gtxxn Bard of the hills,
and two or three kinds of long tailed birdi,
which we judged te be golden and blue
pheasants. On the island shores, however,
we saw countless multitudes of univalve
shell fish, and among them soma huge flat
ones, which all three of my associates de
clared te lie cernu ammonal ; and I confess I
was here compiled te abandon my skeptical
substitution of pebbles. The cliffs all along
these shores were deeply undermined by
tides; they were very cavernous, and yellow
crystal stalactites larger than a man's thigh
were shoetlug forth en all sides. Indeed
every reed of this island appeared te Ijo
crystallized; masses of fallen crj stals wcre
found en every bench we explored, and
beamed from every fi actured headland. It
was mere like a creation of an erientul fancy
than a distant variety of nature brought by
the powers of science te eculur demonstra
tion. HUMAN 11E1NQS IN THE MOON.
On the plain we nere ugniu delighted by
the discovery of anlniaU, The first ebscrtud
was a quadruped with an amazingly long
neck, head like a shctp, healing two long
spiral horns, white us jwlisbed ivory, ami
standing in per)cnd!cu!ar parallel te each
ether. Its body was like that of the deer,
but its forelegs wcre most dUpropertionally
long, and its tuil, which was very bushy aud
of a snowy wlntcuess, curled high eer its
rump, and hung two or tbi ee feet by Its side.
Its colors were bright bay aud white in
brindled patches, clearly defined, but of no
regular fei ui. It wa-i found only in uirs, in
spaces bet w ii the weeds, and we hail no
opjiertuuity of witnessing its tieul or habits.
But a few minutes only elapsed befere thrce
specimens of another animal apjieared, se
well known te us all that we fairly laughed
at the recognition of se familiar an acquaint
ance iu se distant a laud. Tbey were neither
mere nor less than three geed large eheep,
which would net hove disgraced the farms of
Leicestershire or the shambles of Ltadeuball
market. With the utmost scrutiny we could
find no mark of distinction lietwecn these
and theso of our natlve soil; tbey had net
even the apjicudage ecr the ejes, which I
have described as common te luuar quadru
peds. Soen they appeared lu flecks. Hew ar
dently we lunged for a sight of the shepherd!
We had at last concluded that there was
none that no man held dominion in this
lunar world when we were thrilled with as
tonishment te perceive four succcssive flecks
of large winged creatures, wholly unlike any
kind of birds, descend w ith a slew, even mo
tion from tbe cli tr s en the weiterii slde and
alight upon the plain. They n ere first no

Whilst passing across the canvas, and
whenever we afterwards aw them, these
creatures were evidently engaged In conver
sation; their gesticulation, mere particularly
the varied action et their hands and arms,
appeared Impassioned and emphatic. We
hence inferred that they were rational betegt,
and although net perhaps of se high an order
as ether which we discovered the next month
en the shore et the Bay et Rainbows, that
they were capable of producing works et art

Bome of these creature had crossed this
water and were lying like spread eagle en the
skirts of the weed. We could then parceiv
that they possessed wings of great expansion,
and were similar iu structure te these of the
bat, being a semi-transparent membrane ex
panded iu curvilineal divisions by means et
straight radii, united at the back by the dor
sal integument. But what astonished us
very much was the circumstance et this
membrane being continued, from the shoul
ders te the legs, united all the way down,
though gradually decreasing in width. The
wings seemed completely under the command
et volition, for these et the creatures whom
we saw bathing In the water spread them
instantly te their full width, waved them a
ducks de theirs te shake off the water, and
then as lustantly closed them again in a com
pact form. Our further observation et the
habits of these creatures, who wcre of both
sexes, led te results te very remarkable that
I prefer they should first be laid before the
public in Dr. Hcrschel's own work, where I
have reason te knew they are fully and faith
fully stated, however incredulously they may
be received. The three families then almost
simultaneously spread their wings, and were
lest In the dark confines et the canvas be bo be
fere we had time te breathe from our par
alyzing astonishment We scientifically de
nominated thorn the Vcspertilio-bemo, or
man-bat; and tbey are doubtless innocent
aud happy creatures, notwithstanding that
some of their amusements would but ill com
port with our terrestrial notions of decorum.
INTKBJCSTINO DETAILS TO COM.
Se remote de their social actions appear te be
from these common In mixed assemblages en
this glebo that Dr. Herschel requested sotue
et the civil and military authorities et the
Colony nud several Episcopal and Wealeyan
ministers te visit the observatory late in
March and bocemo eye witnesses. Their
certificates will apficar in the forthcoming
report et Dr. Herschel, which (though The
Journal has been favored with but a few
hints en the subject) we are confident will be
nt ence the most sublime iu science and in in
tcn'se in general interest that ever issued
from the press. Many celumus of Tbe Sun
are next filled with details of discoveries en
tbe moon's surface and accounts of a slight
improvement iu the npparatus specially de
signed for the study of these apparently
human beings. They were rewarded by the
discovery of a valley with indications of a
temperate climate in which was a lnagnlfl
ccut temple.
The reef was composed of some yellow
metal and divided into three compartments,
which w ere net triangular planes inclining te
the center, but subdivided, curbed and sepa
rated, se as te preseut a mass of violently
agitated flames rising from a common seurce
of conflagration and terminating in wildly
waving peluts. This design was tee mani
fest and tee skillfully executed te be mistaken
for a single moment. Through a few open
ings In these motallie flames we perceived a
large sphcre et a darker kind et metal nearly
of a clouded copper coler,whicb they Inclesed
and Ecemiugly raged around, as if hiero hiere
glyphlcally consuming it. This was the reef;
but upeu each of tbe three corners there was
a small sphere of apparently the same metal
as tbe large center ene, and theso retted upon
a kind et corulce quite new lu any order et
architecture with which we are acquainted,
but nevertheless exceedingly graceful and
impressive. It was like a halt opened scroll,
swelling off tmldly from the root and bang
ing far ever the walls iu several convolu
tions. It was of the same metal as the flames
and en each side of the building it was open
at both ends.
Tbe columns, six en each side, were sim
ply plain shafts, without capitals or pedes
tals, or any description of ornament; nor
was any perceived in ether part of the edi
fice. It was open en each side, and teemed te
contain neither seats, altars, nor offerings;
but It was a light and airy structure, nearly
a hundred feet high from its white glistening
fleer te its glowing reef, and it steed upeu a
round green eminence en the eastern side et
the valley. We afterwards, however, dis
covered two ethers, which were in every re
spect fac-simllea of this one; but In neither
did we percelve any visitants besides flecks of
wild devei which alighted upon Its lustrous
pinnacles. Had the devotees of these tem
ples gene the way et all living, or were the
lnttar merelv historical monuments! What
did the ingenious builders mean by tbe glebe
surrounded by flames) Did they by this rec rec
ei d any past calamity of their world, or pre
dict any future one of ours!
Hut we had net far te seek for inhabitant
of this "Vale of the Triads." Immediately
en the outer border of the weed which sur
rounded, at tbe distance of half a mile, the
eminence en which the first et these tem
ples steed, we saw several detached as as
fceinbllqs of beings whom we Instantly
recognized te be of the same specie as
our winged friends of the Ruby Colos
seum, near the Lnke Langrenus. Having ad
justed the instrument for a minute examina
tion, we found that nearly all the individuals
in these groups were et a larger stature than
the former siwciinens, less dark in color, and
In evcry respect an Improved variety of the
roce. Tbey were chiefly engaged in eating a
large yellow fruit llku a gourd, sections of
which tbey divided with their fingers, aud ate
with rather uncouth veracity, throwing away
the rind. A smaller red fruit, shaped like a
cucumber, which we hed often seen pendent
from trees having a bread dark leaf, was also
lying in Uua iu the center of several of the
f ustive groups; but the only use tbey appeared
te make of it was sucking its juice after roll
ing it lictwpen the palms of their hands and
nibbling etf an end.
They snerned eminently happy, and even
polite, for we saw, in many instances, indi
viduals sitting nearest these piles of fruit,
select the largest and brightest specimens
and threw them arch nlse across the circle te
some opiebite friend or associate who had ex
tracted the nutriment from theso scattered
around him, and which were frequently net
a few. While thus engaged in their rural
banquets, or in social converse, tbey were
always seated with their knees flat upon the
turf, ami their feet brought evtuly together
iu the form of a triaugle. And for soma
mysterious reason or ether this figure seemed
te be anVsiteclul favorite among them; for
we found that every group or social circW
arranged Itself In this shape before it dis

en. ninscnit, axrLOhhs etntm ruusrrs.
Here ends the detailed statement of Dr.
Grant as te lunar discoveries, at at this data
the moon ceased te be visible until a lata
hour In the night, aud thereafter Dr. Her
schel directed bis labor te the primary
planet of the tystcm, especially te Saturn
and bis rings. As Is welt known te all read
er of The Journal et Science, this planet ll
000,000,000 of miles from the tun, and bavins;
a diameter of 79,000 miles It It mers than 000
times as large as this earth. Nevertheless It
revolves upon Ita axis In ten hours and six
teen minutes, which, as Dr. Herschel has
demonstrated, causes tbe smoke et It many
volcanoes te stream backward, se te speak,
thus creating these yellowish and purple
belts which thwart the surface of the plsntt.
Of Its wonderful rings the outer is 904,000
miles In diameter and tha Inntr 1&4.000 miles,
the space between them being 28,000 mile.
Sir Jehn Hcrschel's most Interrstlng dis
covery Is that these rings are tbe fragment
of two destreyed worlds, which, en being ex ex
pleded, gathered around Saturn by the at
traction of gravity nud jetwer piovented
from falling en his surface by his extraordi
nary rapidity en his axis. Later the astrono
mers resumed their lunar surveys, and com
pleted a map of the moon, Indicating the In
habited portions, timber, water, mountains,
etc.
This concludes the Supplement, with th
exception of forty pages of Illustrative and
'mathematical notes, which would giatly en
hauce the size and price of this work, with
out commensurably adding te its general
interest, Ed. Bun.
Such are tbe most salient portions of the
article as it appeared In The Sun, and tbe
reader of today can scarcely coneolro of tha
interest it excited. One writer says that the
mass of readers accepted the document un
hesitating', and among theso of A scientific
turn tbere was the wildest enthusiasm.
Even these with mere technical knowledge
were staggered, and soma who decried the
article watted with anxiety ter the next
European malls. Several editors confessed
their faith, but many mero sneered nt The
Bun as "sensational" These, however, who
took a jocular vlew of It came out with the
most credit, aud a geed specimen et that class
is the opinion of William Cullen Bryant In
The New Yerk Evening Festi
"It is quite proper that the sun theuld be
the means et shedding se much light en the
moon. That there should be winged people
In the moon does net strike us as mero won
derful thau the existence of such a roce of be
ings en earth; and that there does or did ex
ist such a race rests en the ovldence of that
most veracious of voyagers and circumstan
tial of chroniclers, I'eter Witkins, whose colo celo cole
bratod work net only gives au account et the
ceneral appearance and habits of a most In
teresting tribe et flying Indians, but also of
all theso mero delicate and engaging traits
which the author was enabled te discover by
reason of the conjugal relations he entered
Inte with one of the females of the winged
tribe,"
It Is certainly matter of Interest that a
longing te penetrate the mysteries of nature
has distinguished the Aryan branch of the
human race from the very start, as was thus
beautifully expressed by Virgil 8,000 years
age:
Ye sacred muses, with whose beauty flr'd.
My soul Is ratish'd, and my bralu lusplr'd.
Whose priest I am, whose holy fillets wear;
Would j ou your eet's first petition hear;
Gire me the ways of waudering start te knewi
The depths of heav'n above, aud earth below
Teach me tbe various labors et the moon,
And whence proceed th' eclipses et the sun,
Why flowing tides prevail upon the main.
And la what dark rcuws they shrink again.
What shakes the solid earth, what came delays
The summer nights, and shortens winter days
Aud, similarly, through all these years
fanciful writers have played upeu this long
ing, the result being such productleus a
"The Arabiau Nights," Sir Themas More's
"Utopia," Bishop Berkeley's "Adventures of
Biguer Gaudentle Dl Lucca," Swift's "Gulli
ver's Travels," De Fee's "Hoblnsen Crusoe"
and Lord Erskine's "Armata," besides nu
merous ethers of a similar character. And
as the moon's surface has naturally been se
lected as the scene for vagrant fancy te
disport Itself, it is well te mid here a few
actual facte en that luminary.
Of volcanie origin, the moon is full of vol
canoes, which, however, perhaps from a con
viction of the uselessnen of further action
there being nothing te destroy, and no one
even te see their explosions are new silent
and torpid. But they wrought out their des
tiny se long and se faithfully, that tha sur
face of the moon Is frightfully disfigured and
uneven. Switzerland Is a prairie cemjuired
te the smoothest part of the moon's surface.
It is nothing but Inressuiit mountain and hol
low. Lunar Alpj and Recky mountain inter
sect every few miles of the surface. The Him
alaya would be unnoticed among thogigautle
ranges which ornament the lunar superficies.
And the projections, mighty as they are, ure
but trifling in comparison with the hollows.
It would teern n though the moon, with
apish weakness, had tried te Imitate the
earth til throwing off space for rivers ami
oceans forgetting that it contained no water
te fill the cavities. Astronomers have inade
the most extraordinary discoveries in refer
ence te these lunar hollows. Seme of them
npwar te be about fifty miles deep, and a
hundred miles or se wide, with precipitous
sides.
There are no "men lu the moon." Tbore
cannot be, for they could net exist without
air and water. Tis a pity, for the sight of
this planet of ours, thirteen times the size
which the moon appears te us, as fair, ami
bright, and shining as our nightly luminary,
would be a sight wertli seeing. This article,
being a melange of science and fiction, but
still aiming te direct the reader towards the
sublime, cannot close mere appropriately
than with that eloquent passage of Dr.
Themas Chalmers en the telescope and mlcro mlcre mlcro
sce, t:
"The one led me te see a system iu every
star. The ether leads me te see a world In
every atom. The ene taught me that this
mighty glebe, with the whole burdeu of Its
pneple, and of Its countries. Is but a grain et
sand ou the high field of immensity. The
ether teaches me that every grain of sand
may harbor within it the tribes aud families
of a busy imputation. The one told me of
the Insignificance et the world I tread upon.
The ether redeems it from all tte iiislguitl-
cance; fur it tells me that in the leaves et!
every forest, and in the flowers of evcry gar-'
den, and in the waters of every rivulet, there
are worlds teeming with life, and number
less as are the glories of the firmament.
"The one has suggested te me that beyond
and above all that Is visible te man there may
lie fields of creation which sweep Immeasura
bly along and carry tha impress of tha Al
mighty's hand te the remotest scenes of the
universe. The ether suggests te me that
within and beneath nil that niiuutenessnhlch
the aided eye of man has been able te explore
there may lie a region of Invisibles, and that,
could we draw aside' the m) sterleus curtain
which shrouds it from our senses, we might
there see a theatre of as many wonders at as
tronomy has unfolded; a unlverse within the

(Special Oorrespendenc.)
New Yerk, Feb. 20. There was I
tlrue within the recollection of the most
et us who have clilldicn when little
girls' dtcs wcre inade as nearly like
theso of the fubihers as they could bw,
and they really wefd miniature aeptcs
as far as material, cut and trimming of
garments could niake them. But that
time hits geh by, and Uttle girls have a
distinct and individual style for them
elves suited te their age afld childish
grace. It i net new hew much trim
ming can be leaded upon little gowns,
but hew elm ply they coil be made.
rRETTY STTLE8 fOR UTTt.K OIIILS.
The dresses naturally vary In style,
partly with the mother's taste, and part
ly with the nge of the child, and also
the appcarniice of the little ene. Seme
leek lovely in the quaint little Green
away costumes, and ethers in the pict
ure dresses copied from old portraits.
Others again require n style mero pecu
liarly adapted te themselves, and the
tustcfBl mother will ninnage generally
te find ou what best suits her darling.
Dark woolen materials and shepherd's
plaids as well as silk or surah are most
commonly seen this spring for little girls,
and light colored veilings and cashmeres
as well as India Bilk are made up for
young girls In their "teens" for party or
evening dresses. A pretty dress for a
girl from 8 te 18 can be made after a
model dress which I saw in a large house.
It was of shepherd checks in gray, ma
roon aud whita and was trim med with
mignonette green velvet Anether dain
ty little gown which is illustrated here
is of tan coleted tricot with a guimpe,
belt and cults of ruby velvet The waist
is shirred no that the cdgeBtands upward
like a narrow rufllc, and it has a velvet
belt, aud thrce tucks in the skirt for
Bete trimming, but it makes a becoming
and Buitable little gown. Many ladies find
that the best.laek breadths of their own
worn out dresses can be utilized in mak
ing up such a little gown, only icquiring
(Ive-cighth of n yard of velvet te make
a pretty little drcts. It would ueed about
two yards and a half of material forty
four inches wide te make tills, am if
there was net quite enough dress mate
rial the sleeves also could be of velvet.
Fer school dresses, merino, flannel,
challi and ranny ether of the mero or
dinary woolen goods can be used, and all
that Is then required is a fair stock of
pretty white aprons, and the plainer the
dresses are made the mero satisfactory
they will prove.
Cloaks are made of many materials,
Uiif the most fuHhlonahte nre theso of
clan plaids in fight cheviot, aud theycan
be modeled after the ene in the picture.
Te wear witli these nothing is se suita
ble as a Turn e' Shunter cap or a Scotch
cap with it heron's plume. Beth kinds
nre very easy te uiuke.
Fer a young girl fietu 13 te 10 there
can be no prettier or moie sultable gown
than the pretty pearl gray mohair, with
its simple lines and its cnidltial belt cuffs
and plastron. This saiue design can be
made lu white veiling or any ether ma
terial suited te the age of the wearer. In
wash goods there ure r.ephyr giugluun
that aru certainly as pretty as bilk.
HATS FOK CIHLOTtKN.
Hats for spring nre low in the crown
and wide in the brim. The smaller the
child the larger the brim, and mero over
powering the nuiiiW of plumes. Fer
little girls of 3 ntnl 4 is a soft white leg
horn that can Ui bent uiul twisted into
any shnpe without injury, und there is
n!se u silk plush hat in white and crenm,
profusely decorated with plumes. There.
nre also seen Mill for spring many black
rough beaver hats in gray, drab, white
and black. Trimming Is laid Hat, lean
ing towards the front, and se far no
flowers nre seen upon children's spring
hate.
Itihbens for children's inillinciy nre in
dark shades of brown, prune, dark hlue
nnd teft nihil green. Sometime a width
of p.ile blue ribbon audit iuhIi glean will
Ihi combined te trim a hat for a young
