MOON.-Lowest, 1st, 28th; apogee, 9th; perigee, 21st; highest, 16th. From the WEEKLY TRIBUNE, Oct. 6, 1869. We are glad to call attention to a roofing material for which no extravagant claims are made, and which is now well known in nearly all parts of the country. The manufacturer has for nearly twelve years devoted his attention to the improvement of cheap Roofing materials, and his recent improvements in the use of the indestructible fibrous mineral Asbestos are without doubt of great value. The Tribune Buildings have been covered some two years with the Asbestos Roofing, which seems in every way a satfactory material for the purposes intended.-Eds. Tribune. H. W.

This wonderful mineral, which is now attracting the attention of scientific men in all parts of the world on account of its peculiar qualities-it being fibrous like silk, and capable of being woven into cloth, which is indestructible by fire is now manufactured into a roofing material, which is rapidly superseding tin, &c., on account of its cheapness, and the facility with which it can be applied by any one. The Tribune Buildings and thousands of others throughout the country have been covered with it during the past few years. MR. H. W. JOHNS, No. 78 William Street, corner of Liberty, N. Y., who is well known as one of the oldest and largest manufacturers of roofing materials, is the inventor and manufacturer, and will furnish descriptive circulars and any desired information relative to its use.

To ascertain when any Star found in the following Table will be on the upper meridian, add the numbers opposite in the left-hand column of figures to the time of "Sidereal Noon" found in the calendar pages. For the RISING of a star, subtract the number opposite in the right-hand column of figures from its meridian passage. For the setting of a star, add the same number to its meridian passage. Those marked (....) revolve in a circle of perpetual apparition, and do not rise nor set north of the latitude of New York (40° 42′ 40'), for which latitude the semi-diurnal arcs are calculated. The civil day begins at midnight, and consequently 24 hours after midnight, or 12 hours from noon, is morning of the succeeding day; and more then 24 hours from noon, is evening of the next day. From 12h. to 24h. from midnight, or from Oh. to 12h. from noon, will be in the afternoon of the same day. This table is arranged in the order of culmination. Surveyors and Civil Engineers may obtain the declination of the magnetic needle by observations on the Pole Star when upon the meridian, or when at the greatest elongation east or west. POLARIS and other stars pass the lower meridian 11h, 58m. after their upper transit. To the time of upper transit of Polaris, add 5h. 54m. and it gives the time of greatest western elongation. If the 5h. 54m. be subtracted from the time of upper transit, it will give the time of greatest eastern elongation. Observations made at the time of greatest elongation are less liable to error than those made at the time of transit. The mean distance of Polaris from the pole this year is 1° 23′ 1.54". To find its azimuth for any latitude, take from 18.3828965 the logarithmic cosine of the latitude, and the remainder is the logarithmic sine of the azimuth. 41 m. 30 1 53 ev. 11 29 m. 11 17 ev. 1 41 ev. 1 29 ev. 1st Quar. 8 11 Full.... 15 5 3d Quar, 22 11 New, Jupiter Saturn Venus Mars MORN.

In answer to your inquiry, I would say I do not claim my Asbestos Roofing to be the best roofing in use, but I do claim it to be the best substitute for the standard articles, such as slate, iron, &c., and can furnish abundant proof that in quality of materials, strength finish, and consequent durability, it is superior to any other composition roofing in use. Its advantages are: It can be easily applied; is adapted for all climates; and costs only about half as much as tin. I shall be pleased to furnish any further desired information. Respectfully, H. W. JOHNS. 06 55 COMFORT FOR THE AFFLICTED. "They have done me a world of good. How gratifying to receive such heart-felt and expressive words from those who have obtained relief by using our remedies.
