ASTRONOMICATL SOCIETY. MI. COLBERT'S REPONT. A meeting of the Dircctors of the Chicago Astronomlcal 8oclaty, adjourned from Sept. 8, was held yesterday afternoon In Tloom No. 1, Trisuxne Bullding, The object of the gathes- Loz was to provide for the care of the Dearborn Obseryatory, Thewcre present President J. Yo Scammon, and Directors W. I1. Wells, the Rev. Dr, J. C. Burroughs, Murry Nelson, C. N, lol- den, and E, Colbert. Mr. Colbert muved the appointment of Mr. 8. W. Burnham ns Acting Director of the Ob- servatory, and, belng ssked for an account of 18 stewardship, subnitted the following: Ahout three years ago I was naked by Prof. Saf- ford if I'would undertake to rales funds for the support of the Obaervatory, which had been cripe pled by the Great Fire, 1replled that in my jndg- ent dn endowment fand conld oniy be raiscd by first rebullding the -lllnFm:md domy of the Obscrvatory, and making the Institution.an indnce- ment to the public to subacribe to & permanent fund. A meeting of tho thon Astromonical Soctety was lield in_ Aprll, 1874, at which [ wna formally authorlzed to ralsg such a fund, and to uxe it In robuilding, cte. 3 Prof. #nfford being granted leave or nbsency for two years 1 hoped that by the ex- piration of that time my cfforts would ba crowned with succens; and cortafuly oxpected that Prof, Saiford would nguin take charge of the Observa- tory o8 z0on s lie was uble ta do o, The two years expired last April, J ot ance began to ask gentlemen of my ace qualntanca to become 1lfe wembers of the Suclety Uy subsceibing LU0 each, _In this 1 was efiiclontly aided by others, eapectally by Robert Warren, Esq. ; and two or thres who were alrendy members made further donations, In uklnfi up” this sub- scription, 1 made tho following pledgoss 1. That with the money suralved the Observatory shonld be put In perfect working order, and that 1 would supurvise the reconstzuction till completed. 2. That the members of the Soclety shouid have the right Lo visit the Observatory on’ ’l‘ncsdn{ Al ‘Phursday eveninga: ond that 1 wonld Eunonn 1y at- tend to chelr recvice till the Soclety stiould areangs for it to bu otherwise performed. U, That partics paying mnnoy towards the re- constructlon wore purchasing 1right {to vislt the Observatory), which they could not otherwise ob- tafn, All theae pledgea have been honored,—so far, I have advised the outlsy of the money, of which atrict account has been rendered, ond believe that very little was unnecessarily ot un- wisely expended. § have glven a grent doil of my spare time to the work (of course, gratuitously), snd, lu nddition to putting the toloscopes in guod order, have been Instrumental in securing an In- come of about $500 per year to the Soclety for time pervice, The lust one 1u_the scrles of “{mprove- ments which I considered ubsolutely necesaary to the Ubservatory was made on the 3d of July In'the present year® “With that the firal pledge was re« deemed; thuugh I would recommend revoral other improvements If tho trcasury of the Socloty cons talned nioney enongh to warrant it. A’ the annual meeting hold in July, 1876, I re. nigned the position of Wonorary Asafsiant Director of the Observatory, which position I find held for several yenrs, and since then have labored only as Becretury of the Society. 1 did this chiety be- cotine I wus anxious that 1o _one should suppuse e to be working for.my owr benofit, pecunlary or othorwise. I hoped, and expected, that Prof, Satford would return to the Ubservatory and re- sume tho dircction of ita atfaira, nat later than the 1st of November noxt, and wished him to do so by any arrangements of milne for the uso of the telescopo by others. Prof. Sullord has very recently accepted the chalr of Astrogomy and Physics in Wiilinms Col- lege, Mans,, tor the year now opening; and I re- apectfully submie that” tho Observatory ought not 1o remnln without a Director for nuothor ycar, I, therefore, waked the appolntment of Mr, Hurnham, and take pleasure In expressing my Inl{:h csteem for himusan acite obsarver, and my belief that he will make valuuble discoverics with'the great tele. xcope if placed fn chargo. Remarks were made by most of the gentle- men presont, after which tho followlng was adopted: Jesoleed, That Mr, 8, W, Burnham be appoint- ei Acting Director of the Dearborn Observatory, under the supervision and direction of the Execu. tive Conimitteo of the Astronumical Sacisty.

BWING'S BENTIMENTS. ‘Tha raln last cvening deterred many from attending the prayer-meeting of the Central Church, held intho Mothodist Church Block, corner of Clark and Washington streets. There were, howryer, about 80 present. Tho subject of Prof, Swing's lecture was *Revivale”” e rend the eighty-fifth Psalm, and said: This psalin betrays a fact, The writer of it went from ono kind of feeling to another; sometimes in the depths of despalr, wondering whether there be & God, and weighed down by his own misfortunes; and then agaln he rises to tho lieights of happiness and percetves God. The word “revival” necds no explanation, No doubt we will assist ourselves greatly In all religlous matters If we shall supposc words to mean the same thing {n religion that they do ont of {t. But nothing is wore common than for us, when speaking religlously, to supposo a word has some magleal binport. We attach some peeullar incaning to It, and thus often loae its force. Now, the word “rovival’ means fn religlon juat what it means everywhere clso —~a return of life—n coming back to lifo. A re- vival of trade, o rovival of literature, @ reyival of learning, o revival of fndustry, n revival of religion, are all expressions of the same kind. Ana tous, no doubt, you often lose some of the signiticauce of rellgions doctrines by supposing that they have some peeuliar sonse. The world underwent a great REVIVAL OF INDUSTRY about a century ago. Formerly work was dls- graceful. Only slavesworked.” Dut thero came fchange In the affuirs of men; we need not atop to explain {t% and thers came o revival of Industry so that oven Kiugs aud Quecns, and people In bigh life, Joved to work to some ex- tent. And you know, also, there have boen great revivala of literature. There havo been centuries of darkness when 1t wns thought dls- graceful to know how toread and write. This fs scarcely stating it too strong. Ahout threo centurles ago it was thought that only persons who had to follow laborfous Pumnluncod learn thosé diffcrent branches. “ The people of wealth nre propla of lelsure, and ought not to be expected to read or write correctly,’ because it was ¢ too servile o task.” But slong came s revival of literature, and everybody wanted to be learned. And thus the people of the world, wheninn certafn feelfog, come and go. Generally you can tell why . they come, and wl:{ tlioy 0. Great passfous or feelings come and stay 10 or 20 years and then disappear. Doubtless you all befleve that in our nga there 18 n great HEVIVAL OF MONEY-WORSIILY, moncy-loving. There 18 no doubt of this, It comes by certain paths: {6 comes by the new popularity and the new respectabitity ol labor, and the fact that thousauds of new paths of in- (lmtrgmllmc beon opencd up,—opened up to everybody so that riclies are possiblo tonll. " In o world where thcae great feelings come and go, and where cven these feclings come and go In your own heart, you ought to be ablo to telf at once what is meant by a revival of velizion, It i1s simply the effort of the hwmnan soul to become ~ full agaln of religlous life. That {8 what it means; and the uestion whether God sholl ifl the souf with ;,'hls roliglous 1ife, or whether yon yourself shall bring about this revival, Is a suparate question. Itisvery important that you know first that o revival ‘means nothing clsc than making re- liglous things nssume a new worth in your mind. Wo must all come back to a new eat!- mate of these things, Aud, just as we all comne’ under a new cstimate of tho value of labor, just as wo all coms undcr a new cstimats of the vyalue of Republican principles, just as wo lewrn to live properly, {t is our high duty and privilego to restudy the pgreat truths of roligion—that we may rclove them, or, if wo never have loved, thein, that wo niay forthe first time love them, nnd get them fully fm- pressed upon the mind and hcart. This {8 the meaning of a revival of religlon. And oh, what feclings do come and go in the spirits of us all, and from unscen causes. Thero §s In this room a cortaln gentleman who dearly loves to read—who thinks [t o precious thing. "Along comes something clse and crowds it out.
