    Notes: [Auszug] THE reason that the Government has refused to aid “the expedition to observe the approaching eclipse” is, that it is perfectly assured that “men of science and culture” are nothing but a set of lying impostors, and would swindle the public out of thousands of pounds to take an observation which ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN reply to Mr. Reeks, I was quite correct in stating that the wind would blow in the course of the Milky Way; and to be sure of it, I have communicated with my friend at Llanga-dock, who has repeated what I have previously stated. He also tells me that on Sunday night (the 11th inst.) he ...

    Notes: [Auszug] I OBSERVED a most beautiful star-shower on the night of the 5th inst., at about a quarter to nine o'clock. It crossed the “tail” of Ursa Major in a direction almost easterly, and slanting towards the earth at about an angle of 30°. At first the phenomenon resembled the flight of a flock of wild ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THE articles upon this subject in NATURE, Sept. 8, Oct. 20, and Nov. 3, remind me of what I learned fifteen years ago while visiting tribes of Sioux Indians, assembled to the number of 5,000, near the mouth of the Yellow Medicine River, in Minnesota. The Indians were collected at this point for ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN the Revue des deux Mondes for the 15th August (page 854), there is a remark which, though somewhat exaggerated, is of very great value and practical significance. The writer says, “The phenomenon known as ‘Sunstroke’ is due to the action of light, and not, as is generally believed, to the ...

    Notes: [Auszug] CANON KINGSLEY is a close observer of nature, and if his generalisation be correct in the following instance, it would seem that the tendency to develop the right arm to the comparative neglect of the left is not confined to man.
