Venus is in aphelio on the 18th, and in conjunction with the planet Herschel on the 28th at 9 h. evening; she sets on the 1st at 4 h. 48 m., and on the 31st at 5-1/2 h. evening. Mars rises on the 1st at 3h, 14m., and on the 31st at 2 h. 46 m. morning. Jupiter rises on the 1st at 4 h. 39 m. and on the 31st at 3h. morning; he has now receded far enough from the sun to render the eclipses of his nearest moon visible; the first immersion will take place on the 3rd at 6 h. 39 m. 4 s. morning; the next on the 19th at 4 h. 54 m. 42 s. morning, and the last on the 26th at 6 h. 48 m. 14 s. morning, those being the only ones that happen during the month. Saturn who commenced retrograding on the 2nd, last month, in 20 deg. 18m. of _Cancer_, will on the 31st have reached 17 deg. 26 m. of the same sign, and will be found a few degrees below the star _Pollux_ in the constellation _Gemini_, rising on the 1st at 6h. 49m., and on the 31st at 4 h. 27 m. evening. Herschel culminates on the 1st at 3 h. 23m., and on the 31st at 1 h. 17 m. _Fomalhaut_ in Pisces, a star of the first magnitude, and very much resembling the planet Saturn, (except that its light is not so steady,) will be observed only a few degrees above the horizon in the south west, coming to the meridian at 6 h. 19 m. evening; _Markal_ in the wing of Pegasus, the flying horse at 6 h. 26 m. _Alpheratz_ and _Mirach_, the former in the head, and the latter in the girdle, of Andromeda at 7 h. 31 m. and 8 h. 31 m. _Menkar_ in the jaw of _Cetus_ the whale at 10 h. 24 m.; the four preceding are of the second magnitude. The _Pleiades_ south at 11 h. 8m., and _Aldebaran_ in Taurus, generally called the Bull's Eye, a brilliant star of the first magnitude at 11 h. 56 m.; the upper or northern portion of the constellation _Orion_ at 12-1/2 h., and the lower or southern part at 1 h. morning. These remarks cannot be better concluded, than by calling the attention of the readers of the MIRROR to the unerring regularity of the motion of the heavenly bodies. Though their magnitude is so immense, the certainty and correctness of their movements during thousands of years, is far more exact than that of the best chronometer ever made, even during a single year: how great, then, must be the ignorance of him who does not behold in them the Almighty ruler of all things; and how great the folly of him, who says in his heart, and evinces by his conduct that he believes there is no God. And let him who denies what he cannot comprehend, be addressed in the impressive language of holy writ, "Canst thou bind the sweet influences of the Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his Sons?" 14_th November_, 1827. PASCHE. * * * * * COLD WINTER IS COMING. (_For the Mirror._)
