. THE EXPECTED GREAT COMET. cm-
ncnt astronomer, NJ. Bahnet. member of the
Academy of Sciences. gives some very inter
csting details relative TO the return of that
goat comet whose periodical course is COM
putei by the moss celebrated observer at
three hundred years. Oar cvcical re cords
show that it was observed in the year lO4
392, GS2 975-again in 1864, and the next
.i.na in lJ56-always described as shining
with the most extraordinary brliliancy. Most
Of the European astronomers had agreed III
announcing the return Of this comet in lS4S;
but it has hitherto failed to appear. In fact
it is no. so easy or simple matter to COM
pute those vast cyclical periods as some su.
ncrfical pcrSons-who do not look beyond
he day of the year in which they live-'nay
imagine.
We are, however, assured 10y VI. Babinct
chat m to this moment, this beautiful stal
lis living on it's brilliant reputation, Sc
that Sir John Herschc himself WAS wrong
when he dospaircd Of its temperance, and
put Grape on his telescope. Weare inform
ed that celebrated and accurate comru'er
NJ Bommc, of Middlcburg with patience
and devotcdness truly German. has gone ovel
all previous calculations, and made new
estimate of the separate and combined action
orall the planets upon this comet, of 800
wears; ard he has discovered that it is not
lost to us, hut only retarded in its motion
The result of this severe labor gives the arli'
val of this rare and renowned visitor IL
| August, 1853, with an uncertainty OF tive
years, more or less so that, between 1856
and 1860; those who are then living II a.,
hope to see the great luminary which, III
| 1856, caused Charles V. to abdicatc
,disocate and Journal.

PLANETARY EcLIpsEs.-In the evening of
February Dist, the planet Uranus will be
cclipscd. and the planet Venus in that of
April 18th: the former phenomenon will be
visible nearly or quite throughout the United
States: the latter only in the northern and in
some of the middle States, as in the southern
Venus will pass TO the south Of the moon. So
great is the hrilliancy of this planet, that
where its disappearance behind the dark
edge of the moon can be seem it may he OBJ
served without the aid of telescope.

The Elk river is frozen over and has been
for some time. Forl's wharf on the opposite
side has already been injured By the ice and
when the present mass breaks up it will like

have ice houses are busy filling them.
There was service in Harris Meeting House
several nigh last week, and an extra meet
ing" commences there on next Sunday night.
We had delightful sleiching part of last week.

The FREsHEr OF TUESDAY NIGHT A,

The FREsHEr OF TUESDAY NIGHT AND
EDNEsDAY.--In county like this, pene-
tratcd by so many rapid streams. on which
so many mills and manufacturing establish
mcnts are erected, rain and frcshet like that
of Tuesday night and Wednesday is regard
I'd with no small degree of dread The rain
was quite heavy and Of some hours duration,
and the ground being hard frozen the water
nearly all found its way into the streams
The Big Elk was much higher than at any
time since the great freshet of 1889, and the
volume of water was probably greater than
then, though the quantity Of ice was less.
The following is a summary of the injury
done so far as We have received information.
On Big Elk, Rulol ph's dam, the dam at
Spring Lawn Mill, and the one at Fishers
cotton factory are swept away. The first
two are above the Pa. Line. The heavy
stone dam at Lords Factory is slightly in-
iur,d; so is the dam on the west side of the
creek at parke's Rolling Mill. Scntman's,
S,ott's, Fishers and Ricketts, mill races are
MI injured, more or less. The old bridge at
Lords Factory is swept away, and the abut-
mcnts of the new one in course Of erection
slightly damaged. 4 number of foot bridges
are swept off The Ice on Mccullough & Co.'S
great dam was not broken up, else great
damage would have been done below it.
On Little Elk the damage was less. The
race at Jordan's Paper Mill is broken, and
the foot bridges at Ilarlan's, Lewis and Marlty
all swept away.
On the Octoraro, the dam at Octoraro
Forge, represented TO be a substantial struc-
ture was broken, thatat Romans Iron Works
at Rowlandsvillc, injured.
From the North East Greeks VIC have no
reports.

When we came to the word dtsreSpeciable
in Harold last article, We were somewhat
puzzled, having never seen it before, and not
being able to find it in Wcbsttr's unabridg-
cd, we trust he will cnlightcn US on the
auhject.
In conclusion we would indulge a single
thought for Harold TO retl,c upon, viz: The
love Of elnry led the brave Wolf to the plains
Of Abraham; the love of liberty led MltiadcS
to the plaiN' Il Marathon, and Lconidas to
