THE DOUBLE COMET.

The Paris correspondent of the Aug:burg Gazette gives
the following account of a recent sitting of the French
Academy of Sciences:—"Fresh communications were
made respecting the double comet. According to earlier
advice 3 the celestial stranger was seen on the 20th cf
January in a single, and on the 28th in a double form,
and it must therefore be supposed that it broke asunder
in the interval ! It is now represented that it was sr en
on the 12th of January, in Washington, and on the 15th
in Konigsberg, as a double comet, and that accordingly
the division must have taken place still earlier. On the
12th of February, both the nuclei, according to a rough
calculation, were about 2,000 degrees apart from each
other, and the observations made seem to intimate that
the distance was increasing more and more. A second
peculiarity is now added to this double form.
Both nuclei stand so that a line can be drawn
through them almost perpendicular to the tail,
and therefore a northern and southern nucleus
exists. At first the southern nucleus was far
brighter than - the other, to discern which a
far greater magnifying power was required ; but now the
reverse is the case, and the not them neucleuq shines far
brighter than the southern. What we are to gather from
this matter, nobody knows. I pity the astronomers
Comets were always awkward cu, tomers which gave
them a great deal of trouble. This very Biela comet,
however, was one of the most well-bred of the tail-stars.
It went round the sun decently and orderly in two yea, s
and a quarter, and only disturbed itself so far as to pre-
vent too close a reckoning ; and now, when it has al-
ready wandered for a length of time in the prescribed
path of a peaceful heavenly body, it suddenly gives way,
perhaps, from inward fermentation, to the most lamentable
schisms and most fearful divisions. It must be deemed
a real piece of good luck that the mass of such a comet
is too small to exercise any considerable influence over
its neighbours ; there still remains, however, the an
nosing examie. At the last sitting of the academy it
was affirmed that old Chinese books, still want, actually
predicted similar casualties in the starry Heavens ; but
this antiquated consolation appears to me at all events,
insufficient, even if it proves convincingly the historical
ground and the legitimate correctness of the thing."

CLERICAL PUNISHMENT IN THE MIDDLE AGES.—A
curious discovery was made more than a century ago, during
some excavations n,ar the chapter-house, adjoining Thorn-
ton Abbey, Lincolnshire. It was first mentioned by Stuke-
ley, who visited the ruins in 1772. He says, " That upon
taking down the old wall there, they found" a man with a
candlestick, table, and book, who was supposed to have been
immured." Tradition has always asserted that it was an ab-
bot who suffered this punishment. The skeleton of a man thus
immured was found some years ago at Coldinahom Abbey.
Another instance was recently discovered at Temple-Bruer,
Lincolnshire.—The Builder.

SUDDEN DEATH IN A CAl3.—On Fritlay mnrning,
Hargrare, a gentleman about fotty years of age, whe resided at
Birmingham, arrived nt Euston-square terminus, where he hired a
cab to be conveyed to the residence of his nephew, in York-street,
Bryanstone square. When the cab-driver alighted to open the door,
he found the unfortunate gentleman reclining on the side of the cab,
apparently asleep, but he could not arouse him. He was carried into
the house and medical assistance rendered, butt all endeavours to re-
store animation were unavailing. _

CAUTION TO RAILWAY TRAVELLERS.—At the police
court, a few days since, James Fletcher, blacksmith, of Waterloo-
road, Remford, was fined lOs. and costs for attempting to travel by
the Eastern Counties Railway with a ticket of a prior date, and
thereby to defraud the said company.
DREADFUL BOILER EXPLOVON.—Two LIVES LOST.
—Qn Wednesday evening, a few minutes before six o'clock, one of
the most shockhig accidents that has occurred in Halifax for a num,
ber of years, happened at the ironfoundry of Mr. Bethel Ansoa,
situate at the top of Foundry-street, which resulted in the death
Of Mr. Anson and his bookkeeper, a person named Dan Taylor.
The following are the particulars of this lamentable affair. It
appears that previous to commencing what is termed blow-
ing in a foundry, which is settting the fan in motion to heat
the furnace, Anson was employed in so:ee way about the
engine, and Taylor was going to him on business at the moment
the explosion took place, which tore the engine boiler from
its seat, and drove it completely through Mr. Pollard's house
adjoining, across the next street (Grove-street), and against the
houses opposite. A woman, who was washing in a cellar kitchen,
was seriously cut with the splinters of stones. It providentially hap-
pened that the family of Mr. Pollard were up stairs at the time taking
tea, and the young man happened to be in the cellar when the boiler
passed through, or in all probability all of them would have been
killed. Several children were hurt ; one bQ seriously, uho was taken
to the Infirmary. The body of Taylor, when found under a heap of
rubbish, was quite dead. He must have been killed instantly, and
Anson only survived half an hour. The place has since keen
visited by thousands to view the rains. An inquest was held on
a iistos beingap pappeared
a red nearlyt o
the bodies on Thursday afternoon, at the Bridge Tavern, when it
appeared In evidence that the cause of the explosion arose from a
want of water in the boiler.r

who had the management of the engine; so much so, that had
he not been killed, the Coroner stated it would have been his duty to
have committed him on a charge of manslaughter, as he had worked
the boiler without water gauge or feed-pump for a considerable time,
and very frequently at a very high and dangerous pressure. The
verdict was —" That Anson end Taylor were killed by the explosion
of a steam-boiler, caused by a want of water."—Leeds Mercury.

JOHN BURGESS and SON, being apprised of the numerous en
deavours made by many persons to impose a spurious article for their
make, feel it incumbent on them to request the attention of the
public, in purchasing what they conceive to be the original to ob-
serve the Name and Address correspond with the above. The genre
ral appearance of the spurious descriptions will deceive the ma-
guarded ; and, fer their detection, J. B. and Sen, submit the following
cautiens:—Some are in appearance at first sight, '• the genuine," but
without same or address ; some " Burgess's Essence of Anchovies,"
and others " Burgies's ;" and many more without address. Joh?.
Burgess and Son, having been Many years honoured with suck dis-
tinguished approbation, feel every sentiment of respect towards the
public, and earnestly solicit them to inspect the labels previous to
purchasing what they conceive to be ot. their make, which they hope
will prevent many disappointments.

great satisfaction, continues to be prepared by them, and is recom-
mended as a most useful and eonvenient sluice ; will keep geed in all

off or turning grey; restores grey kair to its original colour; frees it
from scurf and dandruff, and renders it soft, silky, early, and glossy
—facts abundantly proved by innumerable testimonials, which are
open for inspection at the proprietors. As a mild stintulative, cor-
rective, and preservative agent, ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL
has the exclusive patronage of the several Sovereigns and Courts of
Europe, and with rank, fashion, and discernment, supersedes all
preparations of professed similar import. A small pamphlet accom-
panies each bottle of Rowland's Macassar Oil, wherein important
hints ana advice will be found on the culture of the kair of infancy,
and on its preservation and beauty throigh the several stages of
human life.

CAUTlON.—Unprincipled shopkeepers, for Ike sake of gaining a
trifle more profit, vend the most spurious trash under the title *1
"Macassar Oil." It is therefore imperative on parchasors to see that
the words ROWL A.ND'S MACASSAR OIL, are is twa lines
on the wrapper of each bottle, and oa the inside of
the wrapper nearly 1,500 times. containing 29,12$ letters.

RELIEF FOR INFANTS IN CUTTING THEIR TEETH.
MRS JOHNSON'S AMERICAN SOOTHING
SYRUP.
This efficacious remedy has been ix general use for upwards o
Thirty Years, and has preserved numerous Children when suffering
from Convulsions arising from painful Dentition. As soon as the Sy •
rup is rubbed on the Gums, the Child will be relieved, the Gums
cooled, Ind the inflammation reduced. It is as innocent as efficacious,
tending to produce the Teeth with ease ; and so pleasant that no
Child will rents* to let its Gums be rubbed with it: Parents suould
be very particular to ask for JOHNSON'S AMERICAN SOOTHLIG
SIRUP, and to notice that the names of Barclay and Sous, 95, Fer-
ringdon-street, London (to whom Mrs. Johnson has sold the recipe),
are on the Stamp at to each Bottle. Price 2s. 9d. per Bottle.

COURTNEY, Esq.

Church Farm, Barton Stacey, nom Andever Railway
Station, Hants, October* 1844.
Sir,—l cannot help expressing my astonishment in the effect I have
experienced in taking your Pills Or the Gout. I was taken en Thurs-
day night so severely with it as to be with difficulty able to get out
of my bed, and alter I aroSe I had severe pains, followed on with in-
flammation of rise foot increasing. I took three of your Pills, and
within two flours I found the pain to entirely cease. I afterwards
took two Fills at a dose twice in the day, and I am, thank God, this
morning able to walk without the slightest Inconvenience. I found in
a previous very severe attack very great relief; I had the pains in
my knees and thighs so very severe at that time, I thought I must
have died, and that it must have gone into my stomach. At that
time I had resort to your Pills, and -they relieved me—within two
hours I was quite easy. The use of these Pills ought, really, to be
known all over the world. I have a brother, a young man, that
suffers hoiribly with it, and his greatest, relief and preventive has
been your Pills. Make what use you please of ray report.—Yours
truly and respectfully, WILLIAM COLTRTNET.
Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none
have contributed so much to the comfort and ease of the community,
nor conferred inch a boon upon suffering humanity, as the Impor-
tant discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS,
the efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recom-
mendation of many of the greatest men of our day. They are effec-
tive for gout and rheumatism, in all its various forms, including
sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently
treated as
tooth-ache, &c. They require neither confinement nor atteno-
any kind, and invariably prevent the disoaae attackft)lr

"These are volumes of an extremely interesting nature,
emanating from the pen of a Russian, noble by birth, who
has escaped beyond the reach of the Czar's power, The
merits of the work are very considerable. It throws a new
light on the state of the empire; its aspect, political and
domestic ' • its manners ; the employes about the palace, court,
and capital; its police, its spies, its depraved society, &c.
The details on all these subjects will be found peculiarly
valuable, as the author enjoyed ample means of observation,
and has availed himself of them. to the utmost."

LosCoE COAL MINES.—An explosion of fire damp (it
is said) took place at the above works on Wednesday morn-
ing
week. The noise was so great that the men who were
working at another pit at some distance heard it. We
hardly know with what truth, but it is said, the men might
have avoided the calamity, as they were apprised of their
danger. More than twelve persons are sufferers, and one of
them, a young man of about 22 years of age, is dead. Seve-
ral of the poor men are burned very seriously. We aro re very,
happy to speak in terms of commenWion of the pprietor -
of the works, who has manifested thnreatest sympathy for
nor
the poor sufferers. The very serious and afflicting accide
that are constantly happening in various parts of the coun-
try ought to speak with more than trumpet tongue to :IA
hearts of every one who possess an atom of love for his felt
low creatures. It has been demonstrated, over and over
again, by the ablest philosophers, that our coal mines are not
sufficiently ventilated; and that this, in many cases, is the
sole cause of the accidents; and yet no means are taken to
remedy the defect. Poor colliers are sent down into the pit
to work—an explosion occurs—and scores of them (as ia
Wales and Durham) are launched into eternity. The news-
papers record such an accident; the philanthropist drops a
silent tear; no means are taken to prevent a similar occur-
rence ; and the matter is soon forgotten. But how long is
this de-nothing system to last ?—Correspondent of Derby
