A NEW COMET WITH TWO
TAILS

We have heard of Bashaw Of two
tales; but really we never heard before
of comet with two tails We think the
Astronomical Society ought to enquire
into the right of comet to have two tails
1t is against all precedent, and will throw
the theorisers upon comets tails into very
much of a quandary. This comet, which
is the same seen in the Gulf of Mexico,
has been seen at the High School in Phil
adelphia. and is thus described.
"The new comet is about 10 deg. south
Of the constellation of the Whale. 1t is
now moving about 3 deg. E N. E 1t is
visible to the naked eye after twilight in
the evening as faint;white cloud, in s.
S. W., about 10 degrees high. 1t differs
from all other cometscn record, except
that of 1923, in having two tails; one
Teaching from the comet towards the sun,
the other in an opposite direction. They
may be seen in good seamen's night

ROMANTIC INCIDENT. In 1887, citi-
zen of Connecticut removed to Michigan.
One day shortly after his arrival in that
country, his son. lad of four years old,
went out into the woods with young girl
to pick berries. He started to go home,
which was in sight of the spot, alone
but never reached there. Search was
made for the wanderer without effect, and
he was finally given up as lost. Within a
few weeks, the father found, and 'recog-
nized by infalliable marks, his lost child,
in the employ of citizen of Greenville,
Connecticut, to whom he had been appren-
ticed by the overseers of the poor Of Al
bany. 1t appeared that the child had
wandered into the woods, when he left his
companion seven years before, and there
had been met and carried off by party
of strong Indians. In this family he had
wandered about, portion of the time in
the State of New York, until ON visit to
Albany, he had been taken from his kid
nappers by some citizens, who noted that
he was a white child, and placed him in
the Aims House. Here his employer
found him, and he was taken to his ma
tive State, to be restored in wonderful
manner to his parent.

MR.. MARSH'S SPEECH.

speech..of our representative in Congress up
on the all absorbing subject Of Texas annex
alton. 1t is a. powerful argument against
the right as well as the expedieucy
of anne xation. The. conclusion is eloquent
and administers just and schorchingrebuke

course they have pursued in relation to tho

offences. aud gave them liberty to return to
their homes. Since that time they have been
at work to earn the necessary funds to ena-
bic them TO reach their own shores. They
appeared healthy, well dressed and in high
spirits, and spoke well of the treatment thew
had received at the hands of the British au-
thorities. Two of them on returning TO their
homes where they had expected to meet the
smiles, and joyful tears Of their wives, found
that these last had supplied their places with
other lords.

CONGRESS.

The Bill for the admission Of Iowa and
Florida into the Union has been passed by
the House and sent up to the Senate where
it has been referred to the Judiciary Commit
tee.
The Senate Post-O Office Bill will probably
fail in the House. The Committee Of the
House to whom it was referred have reported
it without amendment but recommend that
the House bill be substituted in its stead
This will probably operate as death blow
to Post Office reform this session.
On the 18th inst, Mr.. Choate Of Massa-
chusetts, delivered his speech in the Senate
against Instrumentation of Texas. 1t is said
to have been glorious effort. The sketch
which we have seen demonstrates this. Long
before he commenced the galleries were
filled, and hundreds crowded the doors 10
gain admittance. Members Of the House,
Foreign Minister, Vice-President Dallas,
Gen. Scott, &c., &C., were present. 1t was
indeed wonderful effort of argument and ell
oquence. Mr.. Choate said ''if the rivers of
Texas ran over orient pearls and its streets
bloomed with vegetable gold, still the Cons,i-
tuition was,against annexation"

SEE THE coNoUERING HERO COMES.
Mr.. Polk, President elect, has arrived in
Washington. His journey from home
was a scene of ovation; he was followed
and surrendered by office seekers and
Office holders. On his arrival he was
surreptitiously seized by a few ofths elect
and made to GO through the form of a
reception and speech making in a private
room, at the railroad depot, instead of
appearing to the public. After this he
was generously allowed by his keepers to
join procession and proceed under escort
to Coleman's Hotel, where a number of
persons were admitted to shake hands
with him. The true democracy, it is sup
posed are the exclusive set at Washington.
So there will be no use in the great I'M
washed going to see the President this

In the Senate, to-day, Mr.. Buchanan made
most able and statesmanlike speech in ia
vor ofadmitting the State Of Texas into the
Union.
After he had concluded, Mr.. Rives OBJ
tanned the floor, and the subject, at his in
stance, was passed over informally. The
act from the House for the admission OF the
States of Iowa and Florida in lhe Union,w vas
referred on vote yeas "a to nays ~, to
the Judiciary Committee. The Democratic
Senators who feel great anxiety that mere
shall be speedy action upon this bill, resisted
the motion to refer it TO the Judiciary Com
mittee, with the view of committing IL 10
select committee. The Senate spent
short time in executive session.
In the House, the Bill granting quantity
of land to aid inthe improvement OF the FOX
and Wisconsin rivers, the bill making appro-
priatious for the Military Academy, and the
Bill making appropriations fornavy pensions,
were severally, after having been considered
in Committee ofthe Whole, read the third
time and passed. A number Of petitions and
resolutions, as usual, were offered and re-
ferred.
February 18th, 18th and 18th were occu-
pied in the Senate, by the debate on the Tex
az question. Alter Mr.. Rives followed Mr..
Buchanan in very powerful speech in ia
vor of Annexation. This was followed by a
speech from Mr.. Woodbury. in favor of an
nexation. Nextwe see Mr.. Choate has the
floor.
Nothing of great moment during these
days was transacted in the House. The
Tribune says that the debate on the Texas
question is quite different affair in the
Senate from that in the House. 1t is highly
gratifying to see the high tone Of gentlemanly
feeling which prevails the Senate. The

INHABITANTS OF THE DISTRICT.

We say to you, 1--WE are glad to say it,)
the Fountain is being circulated freely
About 800 have subscribed since the issue
of No. 3, and are coming in hourly. We
wish it to be placed in the hands of every
family-and not only so, we wish our
friends to do all in their power to aid us in
this laudable undertaking. 1t will hurt no
one, but benefit many. 1t will be, we are
confident, circulated to a greater extent
than any other paper printed in the District,
and will, therefore, be interesting and advan-
tageous to business men in circulating their
advertisements. We hope they will not fail
to encourage it. The profits are to be ap-
piled to the erection Of the Temperance
Hall-bear this in mind. Some have said,
"The paper will soon 60 down do not
try to put it down. This we say--the men
who have it in hand are patriots-they are
lovers Of mankind-they will not let it 60
down. Again. The District has need Of
such paper. The community have too much
virtue and benevolence to let it go down
We have already, short as the time has been,
evidence, in the hundreds that take it, that il
will not 90 down, but continue long to
send forth invitation to the brightand spark
ling waters.
