-General Count OYAMA, the Minister of State for the Army, permission to establish my station on the ruin of the celebrated old castle occupied by the ABE family until the revolution of 1868. Count OYAMA also ordered the execu- tion of a topographic map of the environs of the castle, and the sur- vey was duly conducted by Lieut. YAJIMA. Throughout our sojourn at the castle, the greatest assistance was generously rendered us by the Hon. H. ORITA, the Governor of Fukushima-^en. Our main in- strume...nt was a horizontal photoheliograph of nearly forty feet focal length the identical apparatus used by Professor NEWCOMB in 1882 at the Cape of Good Hope, in photographing the transit of Venus. Two weeks' time was quite sufficient for the substantial completion of this instrument, in so far as the parts required for photographing the partial phases of the eclipse were concerned. Of these we had plan- ned to secure 100 pictures ; but I had determined also to attempt coro- nal photography with the same apparatus, hoping to obtain eight or ten negatives of the corona of such size that subsequent enlargement would be undesirable.
