 COMETS DEsCRIBED.-Mr. Pedrick, of the Harrisburg (Penn.) Patriot, contributes the fol- lowing to the cause of science. lti easy enough for common people to see one comet, but it takes reporter to see "several' of those strange vi- stantS:
 9P. M. Saw the comet over widow Smiths chimney--round luminous body, with an ap- pendix--very well got up but little bit too much tail to look well-drank the comets health in widows cherry bounce.
 10 P. M. Increase in size of the comet as viewed from the window of Thompson's lager beer saloon. Thompson quite philosopher says that comets invariably foretell the approach of sickly season, and that lager is the most healthy drink extant. Shouldn't wonder. 12 NJ. More lager-two comets perceptible with third one coming up in the distance stars and comets on a tandango, and dancing like blazes.
 A. NJ. Officer Radabaugh has chained some of the comets, and is taking them to the lock up--concluded to go with them-quite a family party-lager is not intox--
 At this point the M s ceases. It is but just to the attaches of this paper, to say that the writer of the above was an extraordinary re- porter, from the kingdom of New ersey, and not regular employee.
