Abstract
AMONG the parties organised to observe the Total Eclipse of 1869, Aug. 7, that sent from the Cincinnati Observatory was probably favoured above all others in the advantage of having a comparatively elevated station and an exquisite atmosphere. The publication of the work done by this party has been delayed by the fact that for a year subsequent to the eclipse I was wholly absorbed in the labour attending the maintenance of the “Weather Bulletin of the Cincinnati Observatory,“and my subsequent occupations in the present office have entirely prevented me thus far from even attempting the reduction of our observations: the original note-books are at present packed away with the library of the Observatory, awaiting the removal and rebuilding of that institution.
