AND A Trgr it of ?dercury, Qtr . - A On Saturday, Neveiilber 10, 1804, Mercury, for the last bine this cen- tury, transits the disk of the sun. The transit, although visible over the' western portions of Europe, and in Africa, is most favorably circum- stanced for observers in Canada and the United States, whore the whole of it will be visible, Mercury passing diagonally across the upper or north- ern section of the sun. A transit is due to an inferior planet passing' directly between the sun and the ; earth, tints appearing upon the bright disk as a round, dark spot. Transits are very interesting. Mercury breaks in upon the sun as a flask patch, sometimes preceded by a penumbral shade ; not to miss the earliest impression, the exact point of ingress should be kept in the field of the telescope or opera glass— said telescope or opera glass to be properly protected from the sun's rays by layers of smoked or colored glass held between the eye and the eve piece.
