REVOLUTIONARY SERVICES OF YER

In our last, the very interesting report of Mr.

lion dollars, which he believes justly due TO Yer
mont for AID rendered the old confederacy while
she was sovereign independent slne, is certainly
worth looking after but if not one cent is ever
secured Ivy the services OF Mr. Stevens, we deem
those services richly worth far more than they
have cost, in the documents which he has gather
ed, So es'eQia 10 the history and the honor OF The
slne. a resolution WINS adopted by The Senate,
for a continuation Of the commission of Mr.. Ste

consideration, refused 10 concur. 1t is to be hop

by all, is in the originals seventy seUsns.' Why
may we not call it seventy sevens OF years, us well
as sevens of days? ls no, the former the true
rendering?
g. As the best chronoogsts widely differ, how
can il DO proved that the world has, or has not,
stood 5000 years, with any certainty?
4. Can it he proved by any thing like fair rea-
soning, tina, Daniels vision had any thing to do
with The end Of this material world
5. Are not those who assume TO themselves the
wisdom of correctly ascsrtaining the period of

the same uansgresson which expelled Adam and
Eve from Paradise--criminal curiosity or an anx.
iety to know good and evil RID.

this is rather high for Vermont, yet are so " ell

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS.

The Comet. In various quarters, brilliant
comet has been lately observed, near the sum-
Some have seen it during the whole dey, aud 9TH
ers land The mosr,) just infer sunset. AT Wash
inglon it is affirmed TINT this is not comet but a
mere appearance called Zodacal Light" which
frequently happens about the tine OF the verna
equinox, being visible just before sun rise and just
after slii-set We have tried but Cessfuly Ia
get a sigh, of this visitor; nevertheless we have
no doubt that it is n comet, according to the de-
scriptions of those who have seen n. In March,
1902 n comet, answering to the description OF
this, made its appearance, aud was so brilliant as
TO be seen OF mid day. Similar comets were also
seen B. c. 40, and Feb lS, A. ID. 174i. THIS is
proJdbiy The same comet which appeared in l4O2,
or at one of the other periods NAMED. IL any OF
our readers are ut all alarmed At this sight we
will console them with this: the comet Encke,
whose period is only 207 days, comes nearest OF
uuy to the EARTH aud yet cannot come in collision
with the earth short of $4,000 GOO years, This
ejaculation is based upon astronomical facts. And
aguin: comets do not AT all affect, Ivy heir arac.
lion, the planets near which they pass, aud it is
questionable whether actual collision would pro.
duce very serious consequences. So says the
learned French astronomer, Lapluce.
But if we have not had sight OF The comet, we
have heard something very like u small
