Encke IS Comet, which completes its revolu-
ton in about 1.2l0 days, or little more than
three years and quarter, is due this month,
and the astronomers In this country and
Europe are carefully sweeping its track with
their telescopes in the hope of discovering its
presence. We say about 1,21O days, because 1t
is so ethereal (the smallest stars are visible
through its transparent substance,) that when
it comes near the larger planets in its eccentric
course, they cause a slight variation in the rate
and direction Of its motion. These disturbing
influences, however, alter its course and rate
of progress so little that since Encke calculated
ITS orbit and predicted its return in 1872, and
the position which 1t would occupy among the
stars At that time, there have been thirteen re-.
turns OF this eccentric visitor to its perIhelion,
every one of which has b0e predicted with the
greatest accuracy. Though usually visible
only through . telescope, 1t was distinctly
seen by the naked eye in ls2s when its light
was equivalent to that of star of the fifth
magnitude. 1t consists of a few masses of
nebulOus light, condensed toward the centre
and has seldom any trace of tail. Its orbit is
an elongated ellipse its motion, like that OF the
planets, is from east to west and il is the only
known come: which performs its revolutions
within the defined limits of our solar system
AT irs nearest point 1t is 3l,COO.0JO miles and at
its most remote point 81, 100000 miles from the
sun. This week IL rises about half an hour

THE ALDERaANIc1&

We confess that we are st q loss to see ex-
actly what is proposed to be gained by the ac-
ton Of the seven Aldermen who. by absenting
themselves from the meetings. OF the Board
leave f without a quorum for the transaction
of business The usual bone of conten-
ton, the local patronage. is out Of the
way. The municipal officers have all
been elected. There is no further contest to
be made on that score. Where then is tn /,
hitch So far as we can see, the contest b..
tween the opposing wings Of the Board of A..
dermen hangs upon the mere tech picaI question
OF organization. Each side claims that its or
gauiziiion is the legitimate one, and holds
Ultimately to that conclusion
Now II : ems 10 US that the difficulty cln be
readily got over without either party yieldi ng
what they conceive TO be material rights Let
IT be agrs d that Mr.. Richards shall be recog-
niz' d as de Jacto President, and If the opposing
party wish they can file . protest, recognizing
BIN as presiding officer to that extent aud no
further, TO the declared end of proceeding
with essential legislation tor the city.
BY coming in under protest they would be en-.
sbled TO save all the rights they wish to protect
under the organization. 1t is apparent that the
present state OF things cannot long continue.
There are several matters Of vital importance

soon set the wheels OF legislation in motion to
deal with these questions az least Ga party
questions, merely, the people will be content
TO let them ''aeree to disagree" to the end of
their term but not in matters of general interest
There is the matter OF funding the city debt
uncer the r. cent act Of Congress. The credi.
tors OF the city are waiting auxiously for their
pay; and only the requisite legislation is needed
by the Councils to pay them off in a week 3
time. We suppose there can be no objection
on either side TO well matured system for the
issue OF certificates to pay this indebt ,dness.
So, too, IN respect 20 the act OF Congress IN re-
gard 10 lighting the city with gas. 1t is all
important that the Councils should at once
take the necessary legislation TO c irry it ont:
otherwise 1t becomcs the duty Of the Secretary
OF the Interior to levy tx to that end, aud
naturally the Councils will prefer to deal with
the matter themselves. II our public schools
are not 20 be stopped, speedy measures must
be taken by the Councils for their support.
City improvements, sanitary measures, and
other matters in which all citizens have a com.
mon interest, must come to a dead stop if this
imrracticable spirit is not speedily aband oned
