Abstract
ON my return from India I should like to say a few words about some letters which appeared in the English Mechanic during my absence. Mr. Proctor, and a writer signing himself “A Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society,” comment in these letters on the result of the late Eclipse Expedition. It would be better if these discussions were postponed until the results are published by the Royal Society, but if writers who have not heard anything beyond a few short telegrams take it upon themselves to enlighten the public as to the value of photographs which they have not seen, a few remarks of one who has seen them become necessary.
