The Coming Comet

The comet now stretches down the northern
sky most portent0usly, and as its tail is to be
continued" until the 10th, there is little doubt
that IL will reach the length prophesied BY the
exuberant Parkhurst. His expressed " hope"
that there will be a collision between the comet
and the earth will possibly also be realized,
but all the astronomers agree that the matter
of which comets are made IL of such extreme
tenuity that no harm will be done by the
encounter. Too thin therefore is the proper
answer TO any Objectionable attempt to play
upon the nerves by depicting the dangers from
collision. In fact, we are assured by compe-
tent star gazing authorities that less than two
years ago the earth actually was struck BY
the head OF comet, though the fact
was not generally known at the time
1t had been ascertained that certain meteoric
showers followed the track of certain comets,
and Prof. A. 5. Herschel suspected that there
might be such meteoric showers in the track of
Biels's comet, especially As Il had been known
10 divide into two portions and had subsequent
ly disappeared entirely. He requested observers
to watch especially for these meteors in the last
week Of November, 1872. Prof KIinkerfues
saw the shower, OF unusual brilliancy, and
thinking il possible that it might be visible a.
comet, Immediately telegrsphed TO Professor
PoesOn, Madras Biels touched earth on
9th; search near Theta Centauri," that star
being nearly in the direction tOxard which the
meteors were moving. Prof. POgson searched
and found the comet, which he saw on 40 sue
cessive evenings; bat II was so faint that il was
not again seen In this instance, therefore, the
earth passed directly through the head OF a
comet unframed. Consequently it is net likely
we shall suffer any inconvenience from q Airt
OF the long drawn out tail OF the present comet,
which will be scarcely denssr than a streak of
moonlight. And, by the way, everybody must
get out his SPY glass to note if the comet leaves
the predicted atmosphere for the moon, when il
envelopes that luminary.
P.S.-lt will be seen that Prof. Pa.khur.t
has been figuring again, and fiads that he did
rot allow tor the crook in the comets tail, and
IL al it won't touch the earth after all. ANS
well that ends well, comets tails included.

large reduction in the force makes this gloomy

STILL ANOTHER. - on Saturday
night, at late hour, the Armory
Hall saloon WAS entered, and some
foreign coins and rich specimens
stolen. The Burglars effected an en-
trance by cutting pane of glass
with diamond, extracting the same,
and withdrawing the fastenings of
the window. As it is certain that an
organization OF thieves are about, we
hope our Waterman and officers Will
be alert, and see if they cannot effect
capture.

SLANG.-We are strictly opposed
to slang phrases, especially when
applied to our town, hence did not
fancy hearing the clergyman who
offieiated at the School-house on
Sunday evening speaking of "this
camp" Several friends noticed the
particular emphasis attached to the
word camp" consequently we
would suggest substituting some
other word-say town or village.

SUIT FOR DAMAGES.-A son OF
Jas. III. Grady, the individual run
over on the main track of the Vir-
ginia and Truckee Railroad, by a
box car attached to the 3:45 o'clock
train, last Friday afternoon. at Vir-
ginia City, says the independent,
arrived by rail yesterday morning.
He will leaYe for San Francisco with
his fathers remains in day or two
as soon as he has taken the neces-
sary steps looking to the recovery
of damages from the railroad COM
pany. He claims that there was
gross carelessness on the part of the
employees in charge of the train, and
that the Coroner's jury would have
found verdict to that effect had not
an entirely different one been die
tated to them by Judge MARBLE, who
is acting as Coroner in the absence
of DR.. Holmes. Judge MARBLE, on
the other hand, claims that he did
not dictate the verdict, but simply
wrote out form (as is frequently
done by Coroners), and stated to the
jury their full rights in the premises,
that they could alter it, amend it to
suit their views, or write an entirely
new one. The form as written by
Judge Marble happened to suit the
views of the jury, who accepted it
and rendered "A verdict as reported.

mine produces more bullion in six
months than the whole of Utah in a
year, and more than Colorado in a
year and three months. The mines
in Colorado have been worked long
er than the CCmstock, but those in
Utah'are comparatively new. The
lodges in the latter Territory, when
fully developed, may show second
Comstock, or, on the other hand,
they may prove no better than the
Colorado mines. The manner in
which the Emma, Flagstaff and
Davenport have petered out. seem to
indicate that no permanent veins
have yet been discovered in Utah
Chrcntcie.
