Abstract
THE Academy of Sciences in Paris publishes the following telegrams received from M. Janssen. One dated Ootacamund, 18th December, 1h 6m P.M., says: “Great hydrogenous atmosphere very rare beyond chromosphere.” The other, received on the 19th December by the Minister of Public Instruction, but not dated, simply says: “Eclipse observed; important results.”— The Royal Academy of Sciences at Amsterdam has received the following telegram from one of its members, Dr. Oudemans, of Batavia:—“Preliminary results: Corona distinctly seen, pure white rays, dark rifts as far as the moon's limb; no outline of chromosphere; radial polarisation of Corona; no magnetic disturbances; moving shadows positively observed.”
