III. Monday, July 1st, an Eclipse of the Moon, the latter part of which time of the greatest obscuration, she will appear 10 digits 19' eclipsed on the southern side. At those places where the Moon is above the horizon at the In the Atlantic States, the Moon, whilst most obscured, will eclipse the Star 225 in the constellation Sagittarius. IV. Monday and Tuesday, July 16th and 17th, a Total Eclipse of the Sun, wholly invisible. Beginning of the general Eclipse on the Earth, July 16th, 11h. 45m. A. (Mean Time at Washington,) in Lat. 34° 37′ North, and Long. 2° 37′ East from Greenwich. Beginning of Total Darkness on the Earth, July 17th, 1h. 2m. M. in Lat. 54° 44' N., Long. 34° 18′ W. Sun centrally eclipsed on the meridian, July 17th, at 1h. 52m. M. in Lat. 77° 31' N., Long. 76° 31′ E. End of Total Darkness on the Earth, July 17th, at 2h. 56m. M. in Lat. 47° 14′ N., Long. 175° 19′ E. End of the General Eclipse on the Earth, July 17th, at 4h. 13m. M. in Lat. 26° 17′ N., Long. 142° 23′ E. This Eclipse will be visible throughout Europe and nearly the whole of Northern Asia, in a small part of Northwestern Africa, and in that part of America which lies within the Arctic Circle. Throughout Europe the Eclipse will be large, but as the path of the centre will pass over the Northern Atlantic and the northern parts of Europe and Asia, the Sun will not be totally obscured in any part of the civilized portion of the globe. V. Thursday, December 26th, a total Eclipse of the Moon, of which the latter part will be visible to the whole of the United States east of the Mississippi, and to a small part of our territory west thereof, as follows, viz. Moon rises Total dark-Nearest Ap. Total dark-End of the Eclipse. h. m. 3 48.1 A. 4 37.4 A. 5 26.6 A. 6 26.1 A. 4 29 A. 4 40 At Halifax the Moon will rise a few minutes before the beginning of total darkness. At Albany, Baltimore, Boston, Charleston, Cincinnati, Hartford, Lexington, New Haven, New York, Norfolk, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Portland, Portsmouth, Providence, Raleigh, Richmond, and Washington, she will rise totally immersed in the shadow of the earth; but she will not rise at Mobile, Nashville, New Orleans, or Savannah, until near the time of the end of the eclipse. Although the Moon will on this occasion be totally eclipsed, it is probable she will not entirely disappear, but will remain visible, of the color of dusky copper. Mean Time at the respective Places.
