V. A total eclipse of the sun, December 10. Invisible. This eclipse will be limited principally to Asia.

NOTE. In the above table is inserted, in the third | ble. This eclipse will be visible in Asia and in the column of figures, the time of the beginning of the Pacific ocean. lunar eclipse of December 26. The end of this eclipse will not be visible, as the moon will set before it happens. In the eclipse of January 6 and 7, the moon will pass very nearly through the middle of the earth's shadow; and one hour after it first enters the shadow, it will entirely disappear, and just one hour before the eclipse ends, it will begin to appear again. The times of appearance and disappearance, for any place, is therefore easily found, by referring to the table for the times of beginning and end, Total duration, 3 hours 38.2 minutes. Twenty digits eclipsed on the northern limb.

VI. A partial eclipse of the moon, December 26. Visible. For the beginning of this eclipse, see the table. The end of this eclipse will be visible only in California and the western frontier. It happens early in the morning, and the moon will appear to be almost in the northwest. Eight digits eclipsed on the southern limb.

To find the Dominical Letter for any Year of any Century.-RULE. Divide the whole centuries by 4; take twice the remainder from 6; add the result, with a fourth of the odd years, to the odd years; divide the sum by 7, and the remainder subtracted from 7 indicates the letter. If there be no remainder, G is the letter.

Tide Table.-To find the time of high-water and the Star table, observe that more than 12 hours at any of the following places, add to or subtract and less than 24, from midnight or the beginning from the time of high-water, morning or evening, of morning, is afternoon of the same day; and that at New York, the quantity of time affixed to such more than 12 hours and less than 24, from noon, is place in this table. In using the quantities in this morning of the next day.

Tides.- La Place pronounces the tides the most difficult problem of celestial mechanics. It sometimes happens that the tide for a given port comes in several hours later or earlier than the most accurate calculations would determine; and this because of the strength and direction of the ocean winds, which the calculator can not take into his account.

The column of "Sun on Meridian" is for general use through the whole United States. The table of the 7 Stars, or Pleiades, showing the time when they are on the meridian, is designed to facilitate the Aries, Taurus, Gemini, &c., are generally con-computation of the rising, setting, and meridian passage, sidered the 1st, 2d, and 3d signs respectively; but in maps, and in reality they are, the 2d, 3d, and 4th, and Pisces is the 1st. In this Almanac, Pisces is 1st and Aries 2d. Aries was the 1st sign 300 years B. C.

DIRECTIONS FOR KEEPING TRUE TIME.-The column of "Sun on Meridian" shows the minutes and sec onds, before or after 12 o'clock, that the Sun is on the meindeed, this is the case only on four days during the year, ridian. The Sun is seldom on the meridian at 12 o'clock; namely: April 15, June 15, September 1, and December 24. Consequently, when the Sun is on the meridian, or when its shadow strikes the well-made noon-mark, the clock must be set as many minutes and seconds, before or after 12, as the Almanac shows.

Local or Relative Time.-Local time is The table of "Moon's place" shows the sign or the conthat which is shown by our common clocks. It in-stellation of stars where the moon may be found at 7 P.

Its position gives it no influence over ani of that place being the standard from which it is mals or plants. reckoned; therefore, the time or the clocks at any two places will differ by the difference of their meridians. Thus, when it is noon at New York, or when the Sun is on its meridian, the Sun at that instant at Washington is east of the meridian of that place, because the meridian of New York is east of Washington; therefore, the clocks at Washington will be earlier or slower than those in New York, by the time the Sun takes to go from the meridian of New York to the meridian of Wash- The practice of setting timepieces by the rising or setting ington-viz., 12 minutes 2 seconds.

The only means of keeping correct time, is by the clock. It is incomprehensible to many how it can be true that the Sun rises and sets at the same time at all places on the same latitude around the world. The difference of local time will account for this. It is not to be understood, that when the Sun rises at Boston at 6 o'clock, that it is then, at that instant TO MAKE A NOON-MARK-About noon, when the Sun of absolute time, rising at every place on the same latitude; but that at all places on that latitude, when the Sun rises, it will be 6 o'clock by the timepieces at those places.

use of a noon-mark, or a meridian-line.

North Star will be on the meridian, by reference to the Star table; and at that time range two fine wires (suspended four or five feet apart, with weights attached to the ends) with said star, and a meridian-line is made.

TO MAKE A MERIDIAN-LINE.-Ascertain when the

(the centre) crosses the meridian-line, let another person make the mark in some firm place, where the shadow of the Sun is cast by a perpendicular object. Then set the clock, as above directed, and it will be exactly right.

SATURN'S RING will be visible the whole of this year, with a telescope of moderate power.
