ATTEMPTED OUTRAGE.-Yesterday morn
ing about O'Clock a negro man accompa.
MED by shepherds dog, passed over the
bridge at the foot of Bridge street to the
Amherst side of the river. From thence he
took the left hand road and went up the
river several hundred yards, where he took
the road leading up the raYine between the
residences of Mes>rs. Camp and Rucker.
Here he met and passed Mrs. Eliza Gillian
and her little boy. After be had passed
them, the black villain turned, and rushing
on Mrs. G., seized her around the waist,
and attempted TO throw her down, and ut
the same time attempting to raj her cloth
ing. Mrs. Gillian resisted with all her force
and uttered piteous cries for help, while the
little boy, with much forethought, fastened
on to lodge information at house near by.
The negro becoming alarmed desisted from
his helish purpose and sought safety in
flight. Help was not long arriving, and al
though badly frightened Mrs. Gillian was
able to give pretty full description Of the
wretch, and four men immediately started in
pursuit of him. Up to late hour yesterday
evening the negro had not been captured.
At a late hour Yesterday afternoon negro
man named Aaron Marshall was arrested on
Twelfth street, charged with being the guilty
party. He was identified as the man who
crossed the bridge In the morning with the
dog, aud is known to have recrossed the
river at the Orange railroad bridge late in
the day. He was locked up until this MORN

How to Find tile Comet.

To the Baitm. of the Tribune:
Sir,-As I hare seen no directions in the
Tribune for finding Coggia's comet, I send
the FOL owing, which is unsciensitic enough
to enable any Of your readers to find it:
AT about 8 or 10 O'Clock the Dipper is seen
with the handle il the direction from the
horizon. The two lowest stars in the bowl
of the Dipper 0urthest from the hande) are
called the Pointers, because they point to
the Pole star; the one nearest the Pole star
being called Dubhe. Now, the Comet forms
nearly an equiateral triangle with Dubhe
and the Pole star, being situated below
them. The tail is above the nucleus and in
clined toward the Pole star. l had no diff.
Guilty in seeing it last night, although the
moon was half full. +. Z.

Holy LAND ExpLoRATIoNs.-The" Ameri.
can Oriental Typographical Corps" engaged
in scientific exploration of the Holy Land
were at Jatfa on the 22d ultimo, just in from
their desert journey from Suez to Petra, He
rah, Hebron, GAIA, etc. The scientific re.
suits had not as yet appeared, though they
had taken large number Of photographs,
skinned few animals and birds, and had had
their bodily pores and crevices well filed
with desert sand. They were to start on the
25th on the northern tour to Nablus, Bey-
rout, Damascus, and the Hauvan, and were
in hopes of meeting some ancient who re-
and could tell them all about it.

calculations as TO Position and APP
pcarance.

pc0rance.
To the Editor Of The Tribune:
Sir,-Accordiug to the ephemeris pub
| lished in the ASLrononische Naclu1chten of
May 9th, soon after the discovery, this
comet should have been last evening near
Aldebaran, and should have been invisible,
setting nearly with the sun. According. to
the latter ephemeris, very much more accu-
rate, published May 18th, it should have
been about two degrees northeast OF where
1t actually was. From the original obserya-
tions of NJ. Coggia, and my own obserVa-
lions of June 18th and 2lst, have
computed its orbit anew, and have
reached the following conclusions: 1t will
pass its perihelion about July Sth, at
distance from the sun of about 100000
miles. On August 3D., when, according to
the second orbit, it was to be the brightest,
the moon will fortunately be out OF the way !;
but unfortunately the sun will be in the way,
so that the comet cannot be seen in this
hemisphere; aud instead Of being near De-
Deoola, it will be in Argo Nayis. But, for
tunately again, it reaches its maximum
brightness fortnight earlier. On July 10th
it will be little above Castor and PolluX,
setting soon after sunset, and with the new
moon above it toward the south. 1t will
then be about nine times as bright as at pre-.
sent computing its brightness from the po-
sition of the nucleus; but the tail will have
swept around so near us that it
will undoubtedly far exceed that. The
comet is now easily visible in the moonlight
with small opcra-glass, and after the moon
sets with the naked eye. Immediately after
the full. moon it will be easily visible to the
naked eye in the northwest. below the Dip
per; and the time Of its maximum bright
ness will be about July 18th, depending
chiefly upon the length of the tail at the time
1t sweeps by us across the ecliptic. In any
event, within very few days after that the
comet and its tail will both have passed be-
low the horizon. In a few days ] hope to
have materials for still more exact predic-
ton. Speclroscopic observation of the new
comet reveals carbon; but the most impor.
tant results will be obtained in the second
week of July. HENRY NJ. PARKHURsT.
Ne,C York, June %, 1874.
7. S.-Since sending the above, | have re-
ceivet-thc Astronomical Notices Of May 8,
containing an orbit closely resembling my
own, making the pcriheIion passage two
DAYS earlier. AS mine was founded upon
much later observations, it is probably more
nearly correct. The elements show simi-
larity with those Of the second comet OF
1877. 80. ii. NJ. L.

\ New OLD PARrY.-[From the Chicago
Times. 10TH -Pre>ent political indications
At the West point very clearly to the proba'
BILE triumph Of the Pendletonian financial
ideas in the next presidential election. The
steps conducting TO such result, the foun-
dation for which is now being Laid, may be
briefly stated:
The dominant political party in Illinois
and Indiana is now fairly mounted on what
is in substance and effect the Pendleton plat
form. The action Of that party in Illinois
and Indiana is very sure to be initiated in
all the States west OF Ohio and east OF the
Rocky Mountains. The successful carrying
out of the Morton programme in the Rcpub-
lean Convention Of the 18th instant yir-
,,my determines the fact that "the West"
so lar as the Republican party Organization
represents or includes it, has got its face set
in the direction Of reputation.
Tue FARMERS movement has fatally
plunged into the same bOttomeSS pit of dis
honesty. Between it and the Morton ring
OF the Reputation movement there is no
essential difference whatever. On the one
Yitu question of the time, the farmers
movement" in Illinois and Indiana, and the
reputation movement headed in the same
States by Logan and Morton, are entirely
one; and the action of the two farmers con-
ventons on the 10th instant has given the
political cue that is pretty sure to be taken
by the corresponding movement in other
western States. In Iowa the "antiMOnopo-
lists" as they call themselves, will soon
meet by delegates in State convention, and
like conventions will shortly occur in Mime.
sofa, Nebraska, and other western States.
That these conventions will follow the eX-
ample of their co-workers in Illinois, by
taking the highway to reputation, is alto
gether probable.
The corpse Of the old Democratic party
the first of all to strike for Reputation, and
tue original inventor of the stone, Pendle.
touism, which the builders rejected in 1865
is to be again resurrected; at least in so far
as the self.consttuted "leaders" that have
outlived the party shall be able to fesurrect
it. In the West these leaders almost to q
man were repudationists in 1868, and the
majority of them are repudiationsts still.
The political corpse they Intend to resurrect
is expected to be the same reputation corpse
that was buried In 1868. Should it prove 10
be different corpse they will have none Of
it. Should it prove to be hard-money corpse
under the name of the purity that died Of
Pendletonism and Greeley ism it will be hope
lessly damned by the name.

The Postal Bill.

The postal bill, with two cents per pound
On newspapers to be prepaid, was passed il
tue last hours OF Congress. This is one o.
the most practical and benctcent measure.
ever adopted by the Government. The post
aye is very small, but it will be certainly
paid. and therefore, while the Government
will get probably more money from it THAI
they did under the old law, it will very much
diminish the burthens Of the solvent and re.
liable people of the country. 1t will purge
the mails, too, Of Il large amount of humbug
literature and trashy papers that are main.
tanned by sponging and deception.
The true motto Of the Po,t.ofice Depart.
ment should lie that postage should be
cheap to QH-tree to none. The newspa-
per postage going by weight those big sheets
that print hand-bils in their pages will have
to pay for space in travelling with the mails.
Every paper pays according to its size. The
light four.pase newspaper will not be COM
PEELED as heretofore TO pay US much for trans.
portation as your paper Of eight and sixteen
pages, or your blanket daily or weekly full
OF handbills. Each will pay according to
bulk and weight. There could be no.
thing more fair, and all reasonable and
fair members Of the press Will approve it.
Those who do not will be very few-not
worthy Of being considered in the decision
Of this important question.
Postmaster CREswELL has certainly dig.
played great deal of practical good sense
in the reforms he has proposed in his de.
partment. He Is an advancing man-not

will perseyere in several of the schemes be
