JUPITER,

King of the planets, will also rank as morning star. On the 1st he will

rise at 8:33, and on the 31st at 6:23 in the evening, and like Mars will

maintain nearly the same position in the heavens during the whole month,

his motion being 9′ 22″ retrograde. On the 16th, at 9:51 p. m., he will

be 5° 43′ north of the moon. The moons of Jupiter can be readily seen

with a telescope of moderate power, or good opera glasses.
