JUPITER will be the Morning Star until May 8.. After whlCh it will be the Evening Star until Nov.21.

After wh!chi it,)Vili be tbe Moming Star until Nov. 3, thence the Evemng Star to the close of the year: . . , I Owing to a remarkable adjustment of the times m whICh the, Moon's synodical revolution, ,and th,a t of her nodes ar~ performed,1 eclipses return after a certam penod, very nearly m the samej order and qfthe same magnitude. In IS years there are usuallYI about 70 eclipses; 29 of the Moon, 41 of the Sun; or nearly as ' two to three. Seven is the greatest number of Eclipses that can occur in all year, and two the least. If there are.seven,jive mllst be of the: Sun, and two of the Moon. If there be only two, both must bel of the Sun; for in every year there are at least two solar eclipses. There never can be more than three lunar eclipses in a year; andl in some years none at all. Though the number of solar eClipses'1 is greater absolutely than of lunar, in the ratio of three to two, yet there ani more lunar than solar eclipses visible in anyl Iparticular place; because while a lunar eclipse is visible to an! lentire hemisphere, a solar eclipse is only viaible to a particular! part, and sometimes to a very small part. A lunar eclipse isl visible \0 an entire hemisphere, by reason of the larger shadowl ~nd gre~ter proximity o.f ~he earth, and t.he ~onsequent largerll ImmerSIOn of the Moon m Its shadow, whIch IS far broader than the lunar diameter. A solar e,clipse is only visible to a particularl part, on a~count of the Moon's shadow immersing only a very small portIOn of the e\lrth's surface by reason of the comparative. smallness of the Moon. The lunar shadow traVerses the earthl at the I'ate of about IS30 miles an hour. Central or total solar, eclipses are pheil.omena tarelyobseryed ; for although there ,ate. about 2S.such eclipses in every period of ]S years, yet the space: lover which anyone of them appears to be central is but 'a' Inarrow belt of the 'earth's enlightened hemisphere in sdme Case's :scarcely more than a there 'mathematical Hne: Sometimes, '[1802. ALMANACK. 5 through the refracting e.ffect of the earth's atmosphere, the Sun ,and. Moon are both so elf!vated, as to be at the same time Ivisible above t~.e horizon during a total eclipse of the Moon. !
