THE GREAT COMET OF 1851

This magnificent object, which has so sud
denly and unexpectedly blazed forth in the
Heavens, was observed here for the first time
on last evening
The nights Of July the lst and 2nd were
cloudy, but on last evening perfectly clear
sky and transparent atmosphere afforded
fine opportunity for critical examination.
The comet is so brilliant and its train of
light so extensive that it is quite superfuous
to define its position further than TO say that
its present location, in the early evening, is
about 80 degrees west of the north star
The nucleus or the head OF the comet is re-
markably brilliant, though buried IN lumi-
nous mist of vast depth. lt resembles some
what on. of the drawings OF Halleys comet at
its appearance in 1886. Unlike the great
comet of 1858, the misty haze surrounding
the nucleus has no well defined outline The
region opposite :he sun and near the nucleus
is much darker than that on the side next the
sun. but the interior blackness and the dark
raw which penetrated far along the axis OF
the tail in DonatIs comet, Is NOT now seen IN
the present stranger.
The tail could be traced last night TO dis
tance of nearly ninety degrees from the tail.
The Northern side was much the m st bril-
liant and the long luminous ray just mention
ed was from this region OF the tail.
The history of this remarkable object re-
mains to be written Thus far | have seen
no observations of its exact position in the
public prints The comets place was deter
mined last night with the Olcott Meridian
Circle at its lowest elimination as follows

it be permitted to hazard a conjecture,
we may account for the sudden splendor of
this grand object, by uspposing that during
its approach TO the Sun il has been above the
horizon only during daylight, and hence es-
capped detection that on passing its perhel-
lion, or nearest point from the Sun, the direc-
tion of its orbit was such as 10 sweep rapidly
from that luminary and bring it in very
few days to the region of the Heavens now
occupied. This conjecture is based on gen.
eral fact that Comets do not commonly throw
off such immense trains of light until after
their perhellion passage. Until sufficient
number of observations have been taken to
compute the elements of its orbit, it will be
impossible to decide whether this be its first
appearance, or whether this be the return
Of Comet that may have startled the world
ages ago. o. NJ NJ

AS the procession was moving near her
house, halt was made, when all who were
then, or ever had been members of her class
were requested to step from the ranks and
present themselves in body near her door.
At this, some seventy-fve or more came for
ward, and passed where from her sick bed
she might see most of them; the Band at the
same time playing " Pleyels Hymn, strange
