Comet OF 1855.

This remarkable comet, says the AL
bany Argus, is now visible 10 the naked
eye, as predicted by DR.. Gould some
weeks ago. 1t is now only one hundred
and forty millions of miles distant, and is
very rapidly approaching the earth, aud
already shows through common opera
glass well defined tail. We are told
that during the first week Of October the
comet will be Of the most striking bright
ness, possibly the largest Of the century,
and al the time will be seen near Arcln-
rus, perhaps even surprising that brilliant
star in slender. |, is now visible for a
bout an hour after sunset and an hour be-
fore sunrise in line with the two stars
called the Pointers, and forming near y a
right angle between these and Arclurus
Ii is now best seen al four o'clock in the
morning.
DR.. Gould also suggested in the last
number of his Journal that from the sim.
iarity of the elements it was possible that
this comet was identical with the first
comet. of 1927, and also that of l764..
THIS TACT seems now, from tho recent Oh
servalions, almost certain, afTordIng a
reasonable presumption tina, il is period
ic comet, whose period is about 81 years.
