There are to be two domes, in one of which a twelve-inch equatorial telescope is now erected. The other is to contain the great thirty-six-inch telescope, the glasses for which are now being ground at Cambridgeport, Mass. The observatory is of the most substantial character, and will be completely equipped; and although removed from centres of population and of scientific work, it will be easily accessible from San Jose...
