A host of young persons were led to watch with a delight unknown before the circling constellations, and calm, beauteous planets. The North Star in the handle of the little dip- per, the large dipper with its pointers toward that central orb; magnificent Orion with "his bands '*; the grape- Uke cluster, Pleiades, about which Job so eloquently dis- courses ; and Sirius, the dog-star, which was so dazzling when it came like a rising sun before Newton's telescope* he had to withdraw his eyes ; att...racted more observers than had gazed upon them at any time since the May Flower was guided by the cynosu/re over the deep.
1 LIFE OF GENERAL MTTCHEL. 85 The excellent use that Professor Mitchel made of the observatory appears in the next published effort of his 8tadiouj9 mind ; which, if it did not attempt the highest speculations of astronomical science, did perhaps more than any other to make it interesting and familiar to all.
And it is delightM to tell you that not only was Mrs.
Mitchel an intellectual and pious mother to his children, but " night after night did she sit by his side in his study of the heavens." Her gentle hand assisted at the grand telescope, or wielded for him the pen in writing down his observations.
