A very remarkable COMET has been
seen for the two last evenings at Cam
bridge. 1t is visible about one hour after
shutdown, in the direction of N. N. w.
Just within the limits of the twilight, and
continues visible till about | O'Clock. II
may be seen again 10 the morning from /
to half past 8. Last evening its distance
from Arcturus, as determined by sextant,
was 800 AS, and its distance from Lyra
92o 49,. From these observations its
present place is found TO be between the
breast Of the Lynx and Aurina, declina-
ton 500, and right ascension $50.
This Comet has an appearance consid-
erably resembling that Of 1911. The body
does not appear to be quite SO large, but
the tail is much more extended. Its length
is estimated at or 8 degrees. 10 the alb
sence of the moon, and when clear of the

much longer and more conspicuous. 1t is
