THE RECENT. ECLIPSE OF..
THE SUN.
Observations from Various Points.
New Yong, Aug. 30.
A special to the Sun from Guetaluma, Algeria, saya The observation of the collpao hore was in splendid weather. The corona was very brilliant. It presented features that were expected on account of the period of solar activity, that is, the corons was not very extensivo, but was dis- tributed evenly round the sun, Brilliant red protuberances of hydrogen at the edge" of the sun were perceived at the beginning and end of the period of totality. Bailey's beads were also observed,
The fempomature foll five degrees con. tigrade during the obstruction. The so- called eclipse wind rose at the beginning of the totality, and at the same time was seen on the ground, a moving shadow in stripos, a phenomenon which has not yet been ex.. plained. The American" satronomical expedition, headed by Rear Admiral Chester, superintendent of the United: Naval Observatory, succeeded in obtaining a splendid photograph of the eclipes. The expeditioȧ also, by means of special apparatus, skotched the sun's protuber-
B11008.
A special to the Journal from Alınazin, Spain, says-Astronomers gathered hero | from all parts of the world to observe the total eclipse of the sun, by which they expect to solve secrets of the great life giving body hitherto locked to science, found a cloud- less sky. Camillo Flammarion, the great French astronomer, was assisted by his wife. He worked all night is preparation for observations and photographs of the eclipse to-day. Dr. John Miller and Professor William Mogshall and assistante. 1376 from the Indiația University also worked all night in proparations, as did Valentin Gáma Joaquin Gallo of the Mexican expendition.

Business is practically at a standstill, the market having apparently arrived at a *marking time stage with operators, and -ovon investors, sitting on the force awaiting the first decisive sign of that anticipated Improvement in things goperally which has been almost universally expected after the 4
declaration of peace, but which somehow seems to hang fire.
Banks.-Hongkong and Shanghais, fol- lowing an advance of £3 on the London market, have improved to 8915 with small sales at that, and at 8920 for the 30th inst. In the early part of the week a fow small lots changed hands at $9-12, and 8905 and latter at 8910 The market closes steady at $906. Nationals unchanged and without business.

Cantons have been in request at $810, but holders refuse to part at that rate. North Chinas and Yangtszes remain un. changed and without business.
Fire Insurances.-Small unimportant sales of Hongkongs have taken place at- $340, but sellers rule the market at time of closing. Chinas could be placed in email lots at $88,
Cauton and
Shipping. Hongkong, Macaos have changed hands in small lots at $27, sellers at that rate ruling the market at time of closing. Indos have ruled decidedly weaker with sellors during the week at $94 and no infes. We have nothing further to report under this head. ing.
Refineries-China Sugars continue out of favour and unaccountably weak of $129, the earnings for August are reported as bo- ing vory good but from all accounta September does not promise so well,. A slack month or two however, seems to be scarcely sufficient to account for the tem- porary wesknees of money, and the slack. ness of the markot generally.

by König's crew must be attributed, as the 10 stroko himself rowed poorly, failing to finish at all well. Köhler, who is a finished ear, rowed splendidly, backing up Murray well. The latter is a hard-working oar, but at present be rows short, due to want of condition. Plenty of training will enable Murray to get further forward and row his full weight. Another oar who showed out well was Ortlepp. He is a powerful rower and will hon useful heavy-weight if he pays more attention to the leg drive.

In oxcavating the floor of the Samwel cave a great quantity of animal bones was
unearthed, one of the most important of which being a nearly complete skeleton of this large animal, while in other portions of the cave were found the skull and and horns of another individual of the same species, besides much fragmentary material. The
romains of the main skeleton were found in a shallow deposit in the deepest chamber of this cave at a depth of six inches to two feet. The bones were covered with stalag- mites, and these had aided much in pre- Burying them intact.

A careful study of all the material avail. able convinced the Berkeley geologists that they had stumbled upon an entirely new genus, the skeleton representing a type hitherto unknown to science. The nearest animal akin to it was the 'ouceratherium,' No. 37, D'AGUILAR STREET. or beautifully horned beast,' whose
4 remains have been found only in the H. B. M.'s GOVERNMENT, &c, &c. McCloud river caves, Like this later animal, the preptoceras' bolonged roughly in the sheep family, although its similarity in many particulars to the goat and ante. lope are unmistakeable. It had the hand- some horns of a cow, with the skull of a sheep and the legs o a goat. Roughly tracing its allied forms, the Berkeley sciontia's have found that its ancestry must have been similar to that of the modern musk-ox, speciriens of which
are now to be found on the American con. tinent in remote corners of Alaska. In the development of this particular genus tho phy-ical surroundings of the 'preptoceras played an important part, and it specialised
