POSITION AND PROSPECTS OF THE
COMET

ToNs-RAPIDITY OF ITS GRowTII-ITs POSITION
BETWEEN Us AND TIE sUN-ANOIHEB SUP
POSED COMET PROBABLY A NEBULA.
10 the EditOr Of The Irf6uns.
SIR: In my communications during the pres
ent week have dealt much IN estimates and cOnjec-
aures from the absence the Of making accu-
rate predictions that 1t be refreshing to state
lew unmistakable facts observed the comet Wednes-
day evening in a sky not completely free either from
twilight or moonlight. II had slightly gained
upon my predicted place, but too little 10 re-
qure any reetdcaton OF the orbit. The tail. as /
Il with OpeTaglass, pointed TO and reached the
sar IS OF Cameu being 4o in length but the end OF tho
tail faint that persons with me could not trace II
with the naked eye more than half that distance The
distance Of the comet from eOOOOooo miles The
tail is now lying very nearly at right angles with the
Zine of VISION the head and tail being equdisant. The
length Of the tall without making any allowance for a
portion of It being Obscured probably was, by the
1gnt was nearly 100000 miles, actual increase OF
about 10000 miles in five days.
Now If you will permit ME, will add another con-
lecture TO those contained In my article published in
The TRIBUNE OF June 80 After July IA, when the head
OF the comet will have begun be dmmed by the sums
rays it will carry with 1t the brightest portion OF the
tail on successive days. that on the 22d or 2sd when
the tail will be very probably onehaf or more
and that by the brighter half will be between as and
nhe and therefore Invisible, auu IL Will Ony DO tut
fainter end OF the tail which will be in position to be
visible. 1t known, and was mentioned by Mr. Proc
for In his lectures, that such body does
not grow brighter by proximity or fainter
10y distance. That portion Of tho tail above The
horizon and us, may be excessively fain
hat eyes unaccustomed 20 such accurate discrimns
tion, II not astronomers themselves, II may be wholly
invisible But the other hand the portion exendn,
beyond orbit, "tspering Of rapidly toward the end
suggested will be 80 foreshortened TO be for tina
very much brighter 1t is possible, therefore
will not yet say Is than barely possblethat The
tail being separated into two parts the toward tn
sun being entirely invisible. and the other being Of
tapering form, growing brighter toward the smalle
end, the latter may resemble new comet In the east
with q long tail pointing toward the west.
HENRY NJ. PARKHURsT
PSI have been frequently asked about the neN
comet discovered near the planet Jupiter. Known
that Jupiter was IN the head OF Virgo, wher
nebule abound and that II has near II DeDuls which
have seen, much resembling comet, have not take
the time 10 look for It, informed by TREND po
