ECLIPSES IN 1852.

The SUN will be eclipsed the whole year round by the brilliance of the

work the reader holds in his hand. Visible to all the inhabitants of Her

Majesty's dominions, of the United States of America, and of every other

country where English is understood.

The MOON will be eclipsed, during various portions of the seasons, at

the Princess's Theatre, by a set of opposition Moons to be got up by Mr.

Grieve. Visible to the audiences each night.

JUPITER has been so completely eclipsed by the crack boat of that name

belonging to the Gravesend Star Company, that he has drawn in his rays

in disgust, declined upon his axis, assumed a mean—in fact, a remarkably

mean distance, and generally shut up shop.

PALLAS will be eclipsed by Mr. Barry, whose new PALACE will approach

within eighteen or nineteen years of completion. Visible to the

inhabitants of Westminster from dawn to dusk, and to the population

generally, through any dull medium—say the Estimates.
