SPOTS ON THE SUN.—The solar spots are still attracting much observation, and are pronounced to be of extraordinary size, such as have not been seen for many years. That their presence is a signal for great magnetic disturbances around our planet cannot be doubted, and great interest is excited to determine what may be the nature of the phenomena themselves, and what their relation to our terrestrial economies. The spots may be seen by a powerful spyglass, only the eye-piece must be guarded by colored glass, which can easily be adjusted.
