Messrs. Browne and Locke
your last paper, notice is given ofthe ap-
pearance OF snfiitoSed nesv star-and, as
any uncommon appearance in the Heavens
always has been, and probably always will
be, cause of groundless and superstitious
fears with great part Of mankind, wish
you TO inform your readers that this suppos
ed ne70 star is an old acquaintance of As
tronomers. 1t was seen by Job and Moses.
and the patriachs and prophets of ancient
days and. as the laws of God and nature
are Interchangeable, it will perhaps be seen
tor ever.
:. This beautiful object is the planet Mars
which is now in opposition to the sun, and
is about fifty millions of miles distant from
our little planet his apparent disc OF face
IS now about twenty five times larger than it
will be about year from this time, when
his distance from us will be about two hun
dred and fifty millions of miles.
On account of his red and fiery appear
ancc, the aEcients called him Mars, the god
OF 7var. although it is likely that he has no
more to do with war than the planet Venus,
the goddess of beauty and iGve. Let US then
view stars with pleasure /; and if Fancy gviN
have her exercise, let her suggest the idea
that the god o. 7var smiles on our hearts TO
preserve those rights for which our fathers
sacrificed their lives and fortunes, but not
