The Comet.

Professor Plantamour, an astronomer
of Geneva, announces the approach Of
a comet, which is to collide with the
earth on the 18th of August next. The
consequences of the collision are not
predicted, but we are informed that the
announcement has created no little un-
easiness among ill-inforrned persons Of
both continents, some even falling i'll
with apprehension. We are afraid that
any disclaimer of violence on the part
of the comet which we may put in will
notreach thisclass of people, but itmay,
nevertheless, be interesting to inquire
whether the comet has any power to do
us injury. 1t is first to be suggested
THAT no astronomer. anticipates any Sc
rious consequences from contact with
comets. That they may have some
meteorological effect is quite probable,
but an intelligent man would as soon
think of apprehending danger from
auroral displays as from comet. NJ.
Arago estimated the number of comets
(which traverse the solar system at
II 900, 900, and Kepler declared that
comets were as thick in the sky as fish
in the sea. It is said that in 1770 a
comet became entangled in the moons
OF Jupiter and the moons had so much
the better of it, that, as Nature says, the
comet "was so disc0mfited by the en-
counter that it returned by another
road" that is, its orbit was entirely
changed. 1t is added that in 1861 we
passed through comet. but it seems
that, like the Romans in one Of their
battles who passed through an earth
quake without needing il, we were toe
busy with the Rebellion to pay any at
tention toa thing SO insignificant as a
comet. e.
Weneed not therefore anticipate any
Eof the usual results Of collision. We
lshaiI MOI be thrown down an enbank-
! men aud crushed or roasted alive. The
train we are on will keep the track and
pass through the comet as a train does
through the smoke of a town or the
fog of river bottom. AS to wars and
: political disturbances, we leave this

EARLY Tomatoes.

One of our exchanges thus tells how
to get early tomatoes q i.r si.'Js"
"The Spring IS now approaching, and
we recomend toi our lady readers to
plant few early y'tomato seed in flow-
er pots. They will bring on plants
ready to set out in the open air after
danger of frost is over. A half dozen
good strong plants, started early, will
yield many a good dish of fruit long
before 1t can be obtained from plants
taken from a'hot' bed in Spring. b4In
starting the plants othus early some
care is required : IN pihching off the
leading Shoots, as wen aside branches,
in order to make them grow stocky
and bloom early. The plants should
also be allowed plenty Of room, and
only one grown ina pot. 1t is a very
easy matter to obtain tomatoes early If
one starts in time.ii anig ri -a44fl.i p.
