The Comet.

After the eclipse comes tho comet with It's
bright nucleus and long spreading tail. This
stranger may be seen, says our exchanges, by
looking towards the Northern part of tho
Heavens, on any clear night after IL o'clock.
Astronomers assure US, says tho Colum-
bia Phenin, that this comet will approach
nearer tho earth than any comet ever did be-
fore, and that either the earth or the comet
will have to change its course, or a collision
is inevitable, This comet is said to be many
thousand times larger than the earth. 1t is
q solid mass of fire, with a tail of tho same
element that would reach around the earth
more than o hundred times. AS q collision
With this mundane sphere is not ardently de.
sirod by its inhabitants, it is hoped that some
amicable arrangements may ensue by which
other the earth or the comet will alter its
present course, and in the language Of an il.
lustrious individual, "Lct US have peace"

Hon. Jefferson Davis.

Tho " New Orleans Pioayuno" announces
that u letter has been recently received from
Mr.. DAVIS, stating that his health is by no
means so precarious as has been lately repre-
scented. livery soldier and friend of tho lost
cause will read these tidings with feelings OF
pleasure. Ho was one of us in the great cf-
fort to preserve pure and unsullicd the rcpub-
lican institutions bequeathed to us by our IN.
c%estors, and differed ouly in that his firmness,
integrity aud ability exalted him to the head
and front in the great contest. This fact has
made him an object Of persecution to q pusil-
luminous foe, but in his disgrace CD and suf-
fering he sees his highest honor and reward,
the consciousness that his people still love and
respect him. In history the brightness Of his
greatness will dim the adventurous lustre of
those who rovilc and prosecute him.
