General Grant goes from Garrison's to

what he EXPECTS TO get up there. He

Some doubt having been cast upon the
accuracy Of this statement, we have caus-

For ten years past astronomers have

August and September in this year, the
most wonderful comet the world ha-
ever known would reappcar. This comet
is on time. Ii is now 10 be sceu with
the naked eye, any clear night. in the
northern part of the heavens, between
eleven and twelve o'clock. and from that
time until the morning starrises. Astron-
omcrs assure us that this comet will ap-
proach nearer The earth than any comet
ever did before. and that either the earth
or the comet will have to change III
course. or collision is inevitable. This
comet is said to be many thousand times
larger than the earth. Ii is solid mass
Iof fire, with tail Of fire that would
reach around the earth more than a hun
