Story about Thaokeray.

A writer in tho London Times tells
the following story about Thackeray,
never before printed: Il entered tho
Garrick Club about noon, and met
Thackeray in the reading room. Young
fellow he said, I've got some Amori-
can friends dining with mo tonight ut
the Trafalgar ut Greenwich. Come and
help me nmuse Them ! had only late

Greenwich in November For that
was the month. 'Ha, har exclaimed
tho eminent nOvclist-as it was the
fashion u Gull him in those days
come and see.' OF course l would.
But on that very afternoon had an ap-
p0intment with my respected prOgenitor
anent some financial transactions con-
nected with the distinguished college at
Oxford, of which I was at once tho
ornament and the prodigal. feared

told Thackeray that my dinner would
be dependent on the paternal interview
being short one. He said no would
leave word anent time and place with
the porter. He did, in these very char.
acteristic words:

Comets.

A great local increase of solar action
is produced when large meteoric
masses fall upon the sun. Now il it
Glanced that some large comet, arriv-
ing from outer space, should fall d.
rectly upon the sun, it is most probable
that las Newton once suggestcd) the
effect would be a great, though tempo
rary, increase of the SUMS light and
heat. Some comets have come near
enough to remind US Of the possibility
of such catastrophe; NowtOn's COM
ct (l68O) passed ut distance of less
than a third Of the SUMS diameter from
his surface, and the comet of 1843 came
even nearer. A very slight change in
the direction of either comet, when
still ut a great distance from the sun,
would have led to the catastrophe New
ton feared. 1t may be that tho catas-
trophc would do little harm, or would
only affect the comet itself. But for
my own part cannot but think that
the inhabitants of this world have far
more to fear from the fall of a comet
upon the sun than from the once
dreaded collision of comet with our
earth. 1t is no unreasonable inference
that the great cOnflagratiOn which
caused the star in the northern crown
to blaze out so remarkably was pro-
duced by the downfall of comet or
flight of meteOric masses upon that
orb. In this case it is quite within the
bounds of possibility that our sun may
one day experience a similar feat. Fol-
aught that is certainly known, the
mere daily continuance of the suns
light and heat may be due to causes
which need only be excited to unusual
activity to have the prophecy of st. Pc.
ter fulfilled. The day Of the Lord will
come rs thief in the night; in which
the heavens shall pass away with {
great noise; and the elements shall
melt with fervent heat; and the works
that are therein shall be burned up
