WASHINGTON , Aug. IS. In electing to
the rcpubllraii campaign Just open-
IliB , Mnrk llanna has given fresh nnd fin-
quent proof of his friendship for .Major Me-
Klnlcj. for , while tlio post of chairman of
n picsldj'iiHal campaign committee l one j
of honor from the politician's standpoint. It j
nlso one demanding extraordinary labor ,
tne.t mid oncigy. Upon the chairman falls
the burden and stress of the battle. He
must be both field marshal and brigade
commander. When others limp an.l fnltci
lie must ne > ver bo found vnntlng. The party
councils may bo torn with strife1 and jeal
ousy , but the chief must ever present a
unite" ! and limiting front to the enemy. Ills j
mall Is larger than that of nnj other man In
the country anil his callers are numbered
literally by the thousands Most men would
io ; era/y In a .single day over the Intrlcac-los
of tliu position which HIP man from Clove- i
Jnnd will hold during the ne-xt three months. I
Hut Mi Hanna thrives under a load that
would crush an ordinary man. Ho has the
nerves of a IllKnmrck and the digestion of
a LI Hung Chang. Loss of nlco | > no\cr
troubles him. He ilscp every morning rojy
and refreshed and icaily for anothnr hard
day's work. Mr. Hanna has of late paid the ,
penalty of success In becoming the target |
of the lampoon , the cailcaturo and the camnt |
palgn Ho. It has hern nald of him , among
other things , that be Is a pinse-pioud milas |
llonnlro and a domlnccrlnt ? boss. As a matJ )
tcr of fact , ho In n man of distinguished np-
pcaranco and IB described by thoje who know
him best as refined In characlci and man
ner , a student both of books and men , pa
tient to a fault , considerate to all , but witlnl
ntcady In aim nnd firm In purpose , and endowed
dewed with the saving gifts of humor and
common sense1. Ncvci , perhaps , wab there
a bolter exemplification In our politics of the
mailed baud In the velvet glovo.
From his earliest > nuth Mr. Hanna has
known clearly Just what ho wanted , and.
more Important still , the best way to get
It. Gl\cn a desired object , he puiaues it
relentlessly nnd without lest. This has
enabled him , a poor boy. from n small
Ohio town , to roll up a fortune of many
millions , and now that ho has turned his
attention to president-making , to handle
with perfect altlll the tremendous forces
placed at his command Mr. Hanna has
been following politics as u diversion fern
n dozen jcars or more He was the cham
pion of Shciman In 1SS4. 1SS8 and 1892. Ho
bcllovcd the Ohio senator was the great
est financier In the country Tour years
ago lie was the soul of the Sherman cause.
Ho fought for Sherman , and continued to
fight until nil hope was gone , for ho Is
one of these who hoist the white Hag only
when the last ditch Is reached Itcallrlng
in the end that Sherman's sun had set , he
accepted scrvlco under the MiKlnley ban
ner. Ho quickly cameto believe In his
new chief as thoroughly as he does in
hlmsolf. and has pursued the Canton ma
jor's campaign with all the energy of a
Donaparto. In the canvass for the nomi
nation ho called Into existence a vast and
perfect organization , and spent his money
as freely as be did his tlmo. This prelim
inary canvass , which he began three years
ngo , cent him nearly , If not quite , ? 100,000.
but Mr. Hanna counted It tlmo and
money well spent. Now that his favorite
Is nominated , ho has sot out In the same
careful , systematic , methodical way to
secure pop.ilar endorsement of the nomina
tion made at St. Louis.
Mr HRima IR a man sparing both of time
nnd woids. He does not waste ono nor
mince with the other. If you want to know
the real character of the roan you lia\c only
to question this veracity. This was done
once slnco the present campaign opened
Some one made a statement which Implied
that Mr Hanna had dealt In a double-faced
manner It was called to his attention by
n friend , and ho was asked what reply
should be given to the public. His answer
is worth recording1. It was short and to
the point If not In the most elegant dic
tion. "It Is a d d lie ! " ho said. Mr. Hanna
believes In calling n spade a spade , but he
knows , too , that morn lllcs can bo caught
with honey than with vinegar , and , what
ever the result of the present campaign ,
it will not bo charged at the end that the
republicans were wanting tu brains and
money or In all the sinews of successful
warfare Should success como it will be
accepted by Mr. Hanna as a matter of course.
Should his party bo defeated he will go
down with colors flying and with his face
to the foe.
The members of the executive committee
Rclcitcd by Mr Hanna to nld him In con
ducting the McKlnley campaign show him
to bo a shrewd Judge of men Ho takes
prldo In the fact that be Is a business man
and not a politician , but ns n business man
ho has surrounded himself with the cleverest
politicians ho could find. Colonel M. S
Quay , who Is to conduct the campaign In
the eastern states , Is what Thomas C. 1'lott
admiringly terms "a sly old coon. " Like
Hann.i , ( Juay knows what he wants and the
best wn > to get It. His gifts ns a strategist
were In evlilenen at an early age. One day
when he was 0 years old , as ho tells the
story his father brought home n pocket
blblo and a tin sword with a red hilt Ho
might ha\o his choice ; his sister was to
have what ho left Ho chose the bible , because -
cause ho knew that his sister would have no
tiso for the sword and that It would eventu
ally como to him as it did Subsequent
exercise of his shrewdness and foresight
made him first a county , then a state and
finally u national boss. I use the- word ad
visedly , for Quay does not object to being
called a boss. Dostes , ho holds , arc an es
sential part of our body politic , and so long
as there are political battles to bo fought
bosses will bo needed to win and lese them.
In fact , there Is nothing of the senti
mental about Colonel Quay. Ho Is. on the
contrary , n keen , able , methodical man , who
bos made politics his Ufa work and whoso
methods are Beu'roly pratlcal Ho Is not a
an orator or a speaker Ho does not believe
In u speaking campaign , or In meetings
to listen to speeches A procession or two ,
and a few mass meeting may , In his opin
ion , be well enough to keep up the enthusi
asm of a campaign , hut do not make -votes
or chnngo results Ho puts his faith , on the
other hand , in money , In Influence and in
activity without nolsei. Indeed when dlrcet-
tng a campaign ha maintains , so far as tbo
public ls concerned , a silenceus unbroken
as the Sphinx. Hut this Hllvnco Is born of
experience , and the conviction that men who
do not know are not apt to tell. As a nnt-
tur of fact bo Is not a recluse by nny man
lier of means In his personal relations ,
lie IE gracious and unassuming He never
turns you away with a short answer , sate
as "No" Is a small word Anyone , when
lui U in , and not Indisposed , or In con
ference , may see him. and may talk as long
ns he lias anything to say As a rule , It
Is tbo visitor who docs the talking ; but
when a friend comes into his room In whom
he has confidence , ho will open thu doors
of his speech and chat lntt > ret > tiiigly hour
after hour.
Associated with Quay In the management
of the eastern end of the republican cam
paign are \V , T. Durblu of Indiana , N. I ) . of
Scott of West Vliglnlu and Joseph H. .Mauley
of Maine. Durbln ami Scott are political
managers of high repute In their respective

Garret A. Hobart of New- Jersey ro-
signed bis place on the national commit
tee when be was named for vice president
by the St. Louis convention , but bis expe
rience and ability make it certain that he
will have much to do with the shaping and
conduct of the republican campaign. Mr.
Hobart has already been through three
presidential campaigns , and in 1892 was
vice president of tbo national committee
Hut the gicutest triumph of his political
career wns achieved last jcar , when he
brought about the election of John W. Grigga
ns governor of New Jeisey. Grlggs suc
cess was a personal triumph for Mr. Hobart.
The latter originated the Idea of running
him for governor. He took personal charge
of Grlggs' canvass for the nomination , and
In the fierce fight In tha convention it was
his hand which held the lever and gave
Grlggs the pri/e. In the campaign , which
ended in n signal tepubllcan victory , he
was the recognized lender , the woik
throughout the state being mapped out by
him aud executeel under his direction.
Mr. Hobart Is In many respects an Ideal
campaign manager. Fertile In resouicc
and quick to discern the weak points In
the line of the enemy , ho is always cheer
ful , welcomes the advlco of others and
keeps his o\\n counsel. Tills year he will
do his best to secure the electoral vote of
Now Jersey for the republican ticket
The pivotal state of New York has no
representative * on the lepubltcan campaign
committee this year. However , the man
agement of the McKlnley compalgn In that
state Is in tbo bauds of National Com-
mlttceniaii Frederick S. Glbbs , a devoted
and trusted lieutenant of Thomas C. I'latt ,
and the tatter's wishes and advlco will be
potent In Its direction. Mr. Platt's public
career lias made him for years past one of
the best abused men of his time , and his
friends and enemies have often be-en puz
zled as to the real motive of his interest
in politics Ho was pluroply asked this
question once at a dinner , and replied
"f Just saw jou take a glass of champagne.
What did you diiuk it for ? "
"Oh , It vvas pleasant , and stimulates me. "
"That's why I'm In politics , " replied Mr.
Platt. "It stimulates me. "
Politics , In other words , is Mr. Platt's
fun , and the harder he Is opposed by his
natural enemies , the democrats , and by fac
tional enemies In bis own party , the harder
ho lights and the more he Is stimulated.
It is , perhaps , the most amazing feature of
Mr. Platt's career during the last ten jcars
that , while he has re galucd and Increased
his political strength , tie has also developed
a business capacity that has brought him
the teapcct of thu meicantile community. a

He never expects to hold political office
again , unless some president should make ) a
him secretary of the treasury. It has been
life-long ambition of his to hervo In that
oflle'o , and it Is no secret that he was
sorely disappointed when ex-President Harrison

politician will end only with bis death.

III tbo course of the present year we bnvo
lo celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of ono
of the most famous astronomical discoveries
of modern times ; Indeed It may truly bo
saU of ono of tbo most famous discoveries
over made In the whole annals of astronomy.
There Is no chapter in the history of science
which contains Incidents of a moro dramatic
character than those which are described
In the narrative of the discovery of the
planet Neptune Nor are other associations
wanting to lend additional attraction to
this splendid achievement. The human etc-
ment , without which no story could bo com
pletely . Interesting , la hcic also present , nnd
a memorable controversy , the smouldering
ombcrs of which still occasionally burst Into
( lame , has arisen with respect to the dis
covery of the lomolest planet In our systc.ii
At the present time , when the lapse eif
just half a century has again stimulated a
general Interest In the subject , there scorns
to bo a flpccl.il propriety in attempting once
moio to draw attention to the series of
novcr-to-bo-forsotten Investigations which
brought Neptune Into light
To tell the story from the beginning , It
Is necessary lo commence ) with the latter
part of the hist century , when those who
loved to heat about the stars vvero as
tonished ry the announcement of the first

discovery of a planet which had ever been
made since the time when history com
menced. The older planets , Jupiter , Saturn ,
Mercury , Venus and Mars , bad been known
to observers of the heavens prior to the
very earliest ages of which we hnvu nnj
roooiel. No fresh additions had been mide
to the slender list of five , until William
Herschel , then organist at the Octagon
chapel at Hath , suddenly sprang Into
fame by the announcement that with
a home-made telescope , ho had , on the-
night of the 13th of March , 17S1 , dis
covered the vast orb which presently re-
celve'd the name of Uranus. Herschel was
led to this discovery by having Imposed
upon himself the task of examining ; all
the stars he could find whose magnitude
exceeded a certain limit. In the fulfill
ment of this scheme ho happened on the
night In question to bo reviewing the vn-
rlous stars in the constellation of Gemini ,
when his penetrating glance vvas attracted
by an object which seemed different from
the ordinary stars which are strewn in
such thousands over the slry. Closer In
spection revealed that this object was a
planet. Hence came the announcement of
the superb discovery of a mighty orb which
revolved far outside the orbit of Satuin
An Immense enlargement was thus given
to the dimensions of the planetary system
ns they had been previously understood.il
THE DISCOVERY OF HBUSCHEL.
When Herschel bad directed attention to
this new object Uranus it was naturally
submitted to careful observation by astron
omers nil over the woild. They weie
anxious to learn all they could with
reference to tbo nature and the movements
of this newly added member of our solar
system. It was presently found that the
planet required a period of about eighty-
one jears for the accomplishment of u
complete revolution around the sun. As the
years pasbed by , observations were accumu
lated showing the several points which
the planet occupied lu the different stages a
of Its circuit. More and more accuracy
was thus Infused Into our know ledge of
the various circumstances of the motion
of Uranus At Inst astronomers were able
to follow with all needful precision the
mighty highway which the great planet
pursued as it traced out what was then
supposed to constitute the frontier of the
solar system. H was found that , like the
orbits of all the other gieat planets , the
highway of Uranus was not exactly a cir
cle ; it was In fact an oval , or as we should
say more accurately , an ellipse , and the
details of the size and position of this
ellipse weio carefully studied and became
exactly known.
As soon aa the track of Uranus through
the heavens had become deti'rmlned it was
possible to liud with some approximation
the position which the planet occupied
at any particular date , even though that
date were antecedent to its discovery. In
fact u time table vvas formed from which
the locality of the planet , not only for each
year , but oven for each day , could be as
certained for any past epoch extending
If necessary to centuries before Herschcl
lived. It happens , singularly enough , that
planet of the slzo of Uranus and situ
ated at Its distance from the earth bears
striking resemblance , though of a very
bupcrilclal kind , to an ordinary star. Such
planet Is indeed very liable to bo mis
taken for a star , and as the history of the
Uranus vvas studied ) It came to the Knowl Ini
edge of astronomers that though this ob pit
ject had never been recognized aa a planet fre
before the ) eagle glance of Herschel first me
detected It , jet that It had In n certain BU

preceding observers , Nor Is this fact
at 1
be wondered at , when wo reflect that atwa
Uianus Is bright enough to be visible with wli
the most moderate tclebcaplc power. Those fK
earlier astronomers , who In the course lie
recoiinolterlng the heavens , happened of
light on Uranus , not Unnaturally took ab
fci granted that It was a fixed star , It KB
never occurred to them that It was any do
thing essentially different from one of the I'll
thousands of similar looking objects lying sp
all . around. They never Imagined Jei
that , it called for any further rli
recognition than was Implied by ex
noting its magnitude and the exact of
position which It occupied lu thu sky These ofwe
early obbervatlons lu which the planet was Iti
mistaken for a star , nnd bad its jilaeea by
recorded In catalogues with thousands of ex
undoubted stars have slnco pioved to bu
signal service in connection with the
immortal discovery which v.o are presently
set forth Little could any ono of those ancient Pi
In
cient astronomers have suspected that while ti
th
his attention was fixed on a supposed star
whose place be vvas so carefully measuring , to
was just on the very brink of a discovery sowl
wl
covery which would have rcudered his name
famous throughout the ages. The records m
which these astronomers have left possess ,
however , great Importance for our present th
purpose , because we are able by their aid he
learn the track along which the planet neU
U
was moving during the century which preceded -
coded Its discovery. Thus , the study of to
these early investigations permits us to

CUBITS OP PLANETS.
If a planet were permitted to pursue 1U
movements without the Interference of any
external forces , so that It wan guided solely
the supreme central attraction of the
sun , then the orbit of the planet would > n

performed along the same elllpso pro- >
clscly as that which -MU' ' travcMcd during
the preceding rovolutttb > When the high

of Its discovery nnd for. jenra subsequent
thereto nnrv compareMlh the track
which the same planrt < wns pursuing In
these earlier yenrs bfforft Hc-rachel's time
when It was unwittingly observed by pre
ceding astronomers It' ttns found ; bat tbo
two tracks did not agr tj. No Joubt the
differences wore1 but. small between the
actual position In which Uranus was found
by the early obscrveWKud the positions
which calculations baled on the latter ob
servations Tvoulel have f assigned to the
Planet. Hut they were quite large enough
to be unmistakable "hon we remember
how accurately the determinations of posl-
lions can bo effected ) a our observatories
It was therefore clear that there must bo
Homo other Influence upon the planet
Uranus besides that which wns due lo the
supreme controlling attraction of the sun
Aatronomerft had been long accustomed
to find thnt the movements of the planets
varied from the movements which the > so
planets would have had If tbo sun's nttrac *
lion had been the solo guiding force. In
all such cases It had been the custom to
seek for an explanation e > f tbo observed
discrepancies In the effects produced by
Iho attraction of the other planets. H
was known , for Instance , that the move
ments of the earth vvero In this way af-
fectcd by Jupiter , and that the move
ments of ' Mars were affected by
the ntlrnctlon of the earth. In fact
every one of the plnm'ta exeielscs n dis
turbing effect on ; ho movements of each
of the other plnnc'H , the amount of these
disturbances depending primarily upon the
mass of the disturbing planet , and also , of
course , on the other circumstances of the
movements of each of the bodies The
studies of mathematicians have so farei | -
focted our methods of calculating the ef
fects of these forces that we nre nblo to
elctcrmlno bow much each plnnet Is forced
to swerve from Its track In virtue of the
pull exercised upon It by every other planet ,
Generally speaking the disturbances which
observation showed to tnko place In Ihc
movements of the lipavcnly bodies nd-
mlttcd of being completely accounted ferns
ns consequences of such attractions Thus ,
for Instance , in the case of two mighty
neighboring planets , JUpltcr and Saturn ,
there was an irregularity In the movement
of Jupiter wlhch was most satisfactorily
explained to be n consequence of the at-
tinotion of the plnnet Saturn , nnd a cor-
lespomllng Irrcsulnrlty in the movement
of Saturn was sitlsfnctorlly attributed to
the dlsttnblng effect of Jupiter
When It appeared that Uranus was per
forming movements which indicated that
the planet was affected by certain pcrturb.i-
tlona attempts were naturally made to ac
count for these perturbations by showing
thnt they were the consequences of the at
tractive power of the other bodies In tin1
solar system The effects 'which Jupiter
could produce upon Uranus admitted of
being estimated , nnd so nlso the disturbing
Influence of Saturn , as well as of the other
planets , could bo certainly ascertained. After
due allowance had been made for nil known
souice's of disturbance It wns , however ,
found that there wore still certain discrep
ancies outstanding between the places ac
tually occupied by the plane > t discovered by
Herschel nnd the places In which calcula
tion seemed to locate it. The belief in the
universal validity of the Jaws of gravitation
Is so well founded thnt U suggested the
possibility that the perturbations of Uranus
which could not be > otherwise accounted for
must bo due to the attractions of some other
plnnet which was quite unknown to as
tronomers This gave rise to one of the
grandest Intellectual iirobloms which the
mind of man has ever undertaken to solve
SEEKING THE , DISTUHHEU.
Let It bo observed that the facts -with
which astronomers had to deal In their
quest for the unknown planet were simply
these- The position In which Uranus was
actually found differed Ifrom the positions
which that planet would have held had there
been no other agents noting upon It , except
those which nre already known. Accord
ingly two accomplished mathematicians , Le
Verrlcr In France and Adams in England ,
undertook to investigate the v hoi eabouts
of a conceivable planet which should bo
capable of producing precisely these
disturbances In the' motion of Uranus
vvblch bad actually been observed.
It need hardly bo said that
the solution of tnls question Involved re
finements of tmthematical research which
could not be hero reproduced. Wo may ,
however. Indicate an outline of the methods
which had to bo pursued In this extraor
dinary . Investigation First , some well con
sidered guess or assumption had to be haz
arded as to the distance from the sun at
which the supposititious planet might bo
likely to re-'olvc. Its orbit should certainly
be picsumcd to lie outside that of Uranus ,
and from a certain curious law which
governed tbo distances of the other planets
from the sun with some regularity , It was
possible to anticipate what the distance
from the sun of an additional planet revolv
ing outside Uranus might bo reasonably ex
pected to amount to The weight of the
hypothetical planet could also In the first
Instance be only estimated rather vaguely ,
but the assumptions being made It became
possible to calculate the effects which such
body. If It really existed , would produce
upon Uranus.
It could hardly bo expected that a first
attempt of this kind would provldo a satis
factory explanation of the 1/rcgularltlcs In

LOCATING THlSfl'LANBT J , '
La Verrlcr's calculation's1 having been comc
iletcd , he not only ascjerYhlned the track tl
which the unknown 'plttnct moved aud u-
he mass of that body , ' but ho was able Bt
learn its movement through the heavens ,
as to know thu platd among the stars
hlch It occupied day after day .At last Is
felt to confident that this planet could
low be detected by the tvlefacope that on
ho ISth of September , 1S1C , a day from
encoforward to be memorable In the an-
ials of astronomy , Le Verrler wrote to Dr.
Inlle , astronomer at tliu Uerlln observa-
ory , requesting him to direct bis tele-
cope on a particular spot of the sky which
'as carefully Indicated , and there , said
Verrler in effect , you will see a planet
ihlcb I have nol seen , and which no human
ye baa ever Been , luit which , nevertheless ,
iiust lie In that spot , because my cal- Is
alculatlons have pointed out the neces-
Ity for Its existence. It may sound almost
ko a romance vhen wo are told that this
stonUhlng prediction wan literally fulfilled.
the very evening of the day on which
Verrler's letter was received at Ilerllu
r. dalle was able to comply with the re
quest made of htm. Ho wai fortunately In
possession of an accurate chart of the gtnri
In that part of the hearrni which the spot
Indicated by Le Vorrler was situated , This
circumstance greatly facilitated his search.
Ho compared the several bright points which
his telescope showed him in the heavens
with the stars which had been marked
down on the chart. Most of the stars In the
sky could bo readily Identified with the cor
responding stnrs on the chart. There was ,
however , ono starllkc object In the field of
the telescope which was not represented by
any point on the chart. The > attention of
the experienced practical astronomer was In
stantly concentrated on this object. U was
perfectly clear that the orb ho vvas now
looking nt could not have been visible to
the painstaking astronomer wi.o bad some
years before been stud j Ing that port of the
sky , and taking note of all the stnrs U con
tained with a view to the preparation of the
chart.
There seemed to bo only two possible
suppositions to account for the discrepancy
between Hie chirt and the sky. One > would
be that HIP objeet In question wns a star
which had sprung Into visibility at Homo
period subsequent to the observation made
for tbo preparation of the map The other
supposition would bo that the suspicious
object was A veritable planet , Hint Is to
any , a wanderer over the heavens which
h.il , been In some other part of tbo skj , at
the tlmo chart wns made , but which had
slnco moved Into the position where It was
now met with in September , 1S46
Closer examination showed that the latter
was the true Interpretation of tbo new
object. It wns found to bo lu motion ; It
wns therefore Indeed n planet Subsequent
Investigations with high magnifying powers
on the telescope disclosed that tills new
member of the solar sjstotu possessed a
characteristic by which a planet can often
bo distinguished from a star. No amount
of innrnlfjliig power will ever exhibit a
star otherwise than ns a brilliant point
of light Such an object never presents the
appearance of n disc with perceptible nrei
nn 1 a circular or oral outline. On the other
hand a planet may frequently be- observed
to show n distinctly marked disc. This test
was here applied , nnd the' new object wns
presently shown to possess the planetary
llgurc , nnd thus Its true i character was illus -
trated In another way
STARTLING TUB SCIENTIFIC WOULD
The scientific world stood nmarcd at this
astonishing discovery. In nny case to have )
nddcd jet another iniRiilllcent plnnet to the
sun's retinue would have been a notable-
achievement Hut the circumstances under
which this plnnet wns brought to light
made tbo Incident murk an epoch In the
history of the human Intellect. Here was n

There can be no doubt that oven If Le
Veirlcr or Adams had never lived Neptune ,
would in the1 couise of the last fifty jenrs
have been discovered In some other way. We
fre-qucntly icad in the papers announcements
of the detection of an additional planctaiy
member of our svstem , but iio'one" attaches
to such achievements moro than n very
small fraction of the significance ? that must
ever bo attached to the discovery of Nep
tune These small planets aie usually dis
covered by diligent comparison of the stars
lu the sky with the stars on the chart and
whenever a new objeet Is thus brought under
notice It Is carefullv looked after. Theie
can be no doubt Hint Neptune would In
course of tlmo bnve been found by this sim
ple survey work , aud though Its detection
would have been a great reward
to the diligent astronomer who
wns so fortunate as to have first dropped
upon it , yet It would haves been a nutter of
much regret had Neptune been thus picked
up , instead of having been the object of that
wonderful mathematical triumph by which
Indications were given of the exact spot In
which the search was to be made > Indeed ,
as a matter of fact , Neptune hnel once been
very nearly discovered In what may be
described as an accidental manner before
either Adams or Le Vcrrier was born
Astronomer Lalando records In his great
celestial catalogue a certain "star" in n
certain place on the 10th of May. 1785. Sub
sequent Inquiries Instituted by Adams
showed that this object was not a star , as
Lalando thought , but , that It was really the
planet Neptune A reference to the origi
nal manuscript observations of Lalande
brought circumstances , of much Interest to
light. It appears that the astronomer had
observed this object on May S , us well as on
the date two days later , but as his observa
tions showed n different position on the
10th from that which ho had set down on
the 8th , Lalando concluded that the latter
was erroneous. Wo now Know that the
discrepancy In the two positions was simply
due to the movement of the planet In the
Interval. Little did Lalando dream that a
superb discovery hnd lain so nearly In his
grasp , but we cannot regret that he did not
make It. Hnd ho done so It would have been
what wo may relatively describe as a more
accidental achievement. Wo should have
been doprlvetl of tbn most glorious Illustra
tion science has jet Riven of the principles
of theoretical astronomy.
DIVIDED HONORS.
The fame of the discovery of Neptune
was not to be solely the property of Lo
Vcriic-r , but that It would have to be
shared with a young English mathema
tician , J. C , Adams , who had recently
taken an exceptionally brilliant degree at
Cambridge nnd had nlso , as we have said
dlscovcicd the planet by calculation ere
It bad been telpscoplcally seen. Adams
had also , like Le Verrler , provided In
structions for the practical astronomer by
which the telescopic search for the planet
might be undertaken. Prof. Cballls of
Cambridge commenced to search for Hie
planet in accordance with the cumulations
of Adams , but he was unfortunately not
provided with that special appliance for
facilitating such PJ research which was
available to Dr. Oallo nt Herlln. The Catn-
bildge observer had not yet received a copy
of that star chart without which the task
of discriminating the planet from among
the hundreds of adjacent starw Involved
nn arduous and tedious piece of work
Prof Ohallla did , however , manfully un
dertake the laborious duty of Instituting
careful survey of the region. Wo now
know that In llie > course of his work he
had , on moro than ono occasion , unwit
tingly observed the' plnnet Neptune so thnt
Micro cannot bo the least eioubt that thei
process which hn was pursuing must neces
sarily In duo Hum have resulted In complete
success , Dut while Challls was engaged In
this laborious work news reached Cambridge'
of the discovery of the planet which hnd
alre-ndy been effectc'd nt Ile-rlln A consiel
orablo controversy thereupon ensued. The
French * nation claimed for Lo Verrler the
ciodlt of tbo discovery of Neptune , and was
at first Inclined to deny to AdJina miy share
whatever In the Immoital achievement It
urged ' that Le Verrler , quite unconscious of
thu labors of Adams , had completely worked
out the position of the planet and In conse-
eiuence of that work , and eolcly In consequence
quence of It , the planet had been telescnpl-
cally discovered at Uerlln. These who put
forward tbo claims of the English mathema
tician urged the undoubted fact that the
calculations of Adonis were really prior to
tlio.io nf Lu Verrler , though it was admitted
thnt the optical discovery by Dr Galle antic
ipated tbo discovery which certJlnly would
have ' been made by Challls when he bad
completed and compared hid observation at
Cambridge. The English claim demanded
that the fame of the ellBcoyery of Neptune
by mathematical icsearch should bo equally
shared between La Vcrricr and Adams ,
Gradually this claim has come > to bo al
most universally recoKnired an a just one. U
true that certain French writers speak of
the discovery of Nrptune as simply duo to
La Verrler , but Impartial Judgea generally
refer to It aa the joint result of the concur
rent labors of the French and the English
astronomers. UQIIEUT 1JALL.
