Professor. Mitchell thertturpod. .his 3ndrition to
Jupiter, which he said was oneihe largest,dud

This is traced among the Hindoos, qhinese, Per

ble that thongh they do not begin their week on the

they must have come from'some, common origin,
and 'hence be back of tradition itself.- (Applause,]
The Professor then related the effects which fol
lchted the invention of the teleseope,.:and the as
tonishrnent which seized upon old Galileo, when
he first dlre'eted hisjohe to thejseavens and saw
the four moons df Jupiter ;- he alluded to the war
among the scientific men at that 44y in reference
to the rival theories of Cciffernictis and Pteleiny, the
one making the earth, the other the sun the centre
of the solar system ; the difficulties . vialfieli Gaiffeo

tern, in accounting for ihe - mOtions of Jupiter's moons
on the Ptolemaic theory, how he finally incurred

the earth did net move round the sun, but *ben he

It was then 4town how the velocity of.light was
computed by observing the eclipses of / Jupiter's
moons. If , flu; earth was on the side neit to Jupi ?
