THE COMET.

Inchbonny, Jam 23, 1324.
The Comet a few days hence. will be within the circle
of perpetual -itiparition, and *ilf bt continua* above
the knit* NA so never set. At present it rises be-
tween the N.N.E. and N. by E. about 15 minntes past
10 at night, and Conies to the meridian about 4.5
mi-
nutes past eight in the morning, and sets betweenthe
N.N.W. and N. by W. at 35 minutes past seven at
night. Its tcnrect distance was, on the 10th January,
hours SClnliintites Mean time ; froM Arctorns 32 deg.
ffi Min. )6 sec. hole Lyra, 26 derr. 33 min.; and
froni Itiotlhagns, 22 deg. 50 Min. The earth travels
nearly at the rate of one million and a half of Miles per
day in its ananaltourse round the son, and the earth's
mean daily motion is nearly 59 minutes and eight Se-
conds ; but the din,' 'Motion of this Cornet at present is
112 minutes, which is nearly double that of the eaith
round the inn. About six o'clock in the moining Ate
planet Venus will be seen on the sotto-east, and the
planet Mars a little past the meridian, and nearly in
eeninnetion With the star Meath Virgo; and
Jupiter near has suing in the-lest. Jam VEETCIi.
- P.4.—On the IMIS instant, about &tiff minutes past sit, a large
°ail, meteor, with an oval brad larger than the full' moon, and a
long and sparkling tail, appeared to come from the west, and tooted
toward the South East, in a curve line, with its convex side to the
North.—J. V.
The Cornet, on the 7th of January, Was itt the right
shoulder of Hercules, taking a direction towards the tail
of the Dragon. It moves with astonishing velocity, as
it hai since passed niidWay between; the back of Her-
cule,' and theoenthern Crown, through the right leg 'of
ffereales; and' is now continuing its course between the
tight- knee of Hetculei and the right hand of 13ooteg,
and at the present time does not set. If the brilliancy
of the Comet cOntinne, we may expect a more faint*.
able OppOttnnitY of seeing it about the 30th of this
month, when the Moon willte absent ; and should the
atmosphere be clear, it wiU then be distinctly *isible,
between the Pole and the extremity of the tail of the.
Ursa Major, at any hour of the night.'

ander to the memory of Kosciusko, near Cracow, which'
