Abstract
M. LEVERRIER has sent to M. Waddington, the French Minister of Public Instruction, a proposal for the immediate construction of the great refractor for the Paris Observatory, which is to be finished in two years and five months. A tender has been sent to M. Leverrier by M. Eichens, the constructor of the great reflector, for that purpose; M. Leverrier proposes the acceptance of M. Eichens' offer.
