The comets are coming. Some Awo
weeks ago Prof Swift, of Rnchcs!cr, N.
", discovered one, and now the eagle
eye of professor Barnard, of Nashville,
has detected another one rushing ma.lly
through space. To these gentlemen
the more comets the better, for they re-
ceive 500 in gold each AS Il prize for
their discoveries. The discovery of
two comets in such close succession is
something wholly unknown in previous
history Of this country, and taken in
connection with recent unusual occur
renee in the heavens, the event is re-
garded generally us IL significant scion
tific fact. 1t will be, no doubt, Il great
relief to many ofonr readers to learn
that the most eminent astronomers do
not apprehend any danger from the
presence of two comets in the heavens
ut one time. Who's afraid:-N. q.

THE EARTH'S GREAT AGE.
IN. Y. Tribune

N. Y. Tribune.]
In Il recent lecture ut San Francisco,
Professor William Denton gave several
striking Illustrations Of tho earth's age.
First he said, VIC have evidence of the
earth's great age in the tiny particles
of soil at our feet. The great trees Of
California with from $50 TO 1850
annual rings Of vegetable growth,
reveal the fact that these mOnarchs Of
the vegetable world We're saplings when
Northumberland was born. The great
fallen Monarch Of the Forest has been
estimated to have been 200 years old,
and grew from seed propagated by older
parent trees, and these in turn from
grandparents, whose crunibted dust
forms a rich vegetable mould to nourjsh
their. younger progeny. How many
lsuch generations occurred no one can
tell.
But older than all these are the
glacial beds. When these ploughed
their way over the surface of North
America and Scandinavia they planned
| out mighty beds and ground and polish
ed down the uneven surface of Il former
age. In this remote age the coast of
New England was like that Of Green
land at the present day. Few geolo.
gists will place the glacial period at less
Via" Ao",oov C''S sses'' D"I We SVulu
go back still farther. In the tertiary
strata Of California has been found
what are called the earliest human re-
| mains ever discovered. These existed
many, many thousand years ago, when
| one half of New jersey, One-third of
Virginia, all of Florida, part of Texas
and Great Britain wore under water.
! The Mediterranean sea was then double
its present size, and tho Gulf of Mexico
extended TO Ohio. a large part of
California was under the bed OF the
Pacific ocean, and waters then extend-
ed back to the foothills Of the Sierra
| Nevada mountains:
But older than all this period and for
nation was theun,lerlyingstr atification
of chalk; still older was the Triassic,
and older yet, the new red sandstone.
Older yet was the carbOniferous forma-
ton. Then further back was the old
red sandstone, such as comes to the sur
face in parts of Scotland. Again, still
lower, the older Silurian, then the
other Laurentian, seen at tho surface in
Western Canada, and Older yet than all
these the granite or great underlying
rock, the parent that thrusts itself up as
the backbone of continents, cutting
through all others to show us on the
surface what is below. What an infin-
ity of time must have passed away in
the successive formation of these rocky
layers!

Or like q dainty flower in May,
Orlike the morning to tho day,
Or like tho sun. or like tho shade,
Or like the gonrd which Jonah had
Even such is man, whose thread is spun,
Drawn out and out, and SO is done.

Or like tale that's new begun,
Or like the bird that's here to-day,
Or like tho pearled dew in May,
Or like an hour, or like a span,
Or like tho singing of Il swan
Even such is man, who lives by breath,
Is here, now there, in life and death.
The grass withers, the tale is ended,
The bird is flown, the dew assembled,
The hour is short. the span not long,
Like to the bubble in the brook,
Or in q glass mnch like look,
Or like the shuttle in viewers hand,
Or like the writing on tho sand,
Or like a thought, or like IA dream.
Or like the gliding of the stream
Even such is man, who lives by breath.

Or like the tide 'twixt flood and cbb.
Or like the SPIDERS tender web,
Or like a race, or like goal,
Or like the dealing of a dole
Even such is man, whose brittle state
Is always subject unto fate.
The arrow shot, the flood soon spent,
Tho time no stay, the web soon rent,
The race soon run, tho goal soon won,
The dole soon dealt, man IS life soon done

The pear doth rot, the plum doth fall,
Tho snow dissolves, and so must all.

ORACLE AND HER GRANFATuER.
Separated for n Time, hut Stating To-
gether at Last on the Long Journey.

Wnen one Oh the trains to this city
came in at midnight few nights ago,
an old man was found sleeping in one
of the seats. The conductor flashed his
lantern in his face, the brakeman stir.
ed him up, and one or two passengers
looked at him careicssiy, but no per
son seemed to belong to him. Io wa.
neat and clean, but thin and wasted by
old age or privation. All sorts o
troubles were mapped on his clean,
withered face, but the main thing JUS
then was to get him awake and on his
feet and out of the car.
81 say, old Lnan!' yelled the con.
ductor, s'git out of this; do you hear
This is Detroit. II you've got any
friends, they'll be looking for you"
He opened his eyes SO wide and
suddenly that the brakeman, the con-
,duc.or, and the curious passengers fell
back on each other in Il heap, but only
his lips moved.
tWhere's Oracle pr
s.:Who?" asked the conductor, re-
covering his official voice.
'Little Gracie-grandpa' little pet
l brought her with me. Is she there? ?"
"f guess he is not wide awake yet"
said the curious passenger. "Suppose
you help him to his feet.'
Conductors are experts in helping
people to their feet, aud this Que was no
exception to the rule. He took the old
man by the coat collar and stood him
up, but he sank down the next mo-
ment limp and motionless. Just then :,
depot hand came in.
''The baggage master wants to know
what youer 'goin' to do with that little
deal box over there. He don't want
any of that kind left over, aud there
amt no direction on it but 'Gracie'---'S
"That's her!" said the old man, and
he stood up feebly "Take me there.
We're going Il long journoy--G Oracle
and me long, long Journey, but it
don't seem as il knew the way right
clear.''
They took him into the depot and
laid him on one OF the benches and put
his carpet-bas under his head, but still
he fretted for his s'little Gracie--his
pet" and at last they consoled him by
telling MIN she was resting, was asleep,
and must not be disturbed.
"We've long journey to go,'' he
kept saying to himself; ssand srandpa's
baby mustn't get tired. It's Tong
way, long way.''
The little "boX," with Oracle writ
ten upon it in lead pencil, was safe
enough with tho other "freight," and
the OLD man slept peacefully at last.
some Kind soul threw rug over him
near morning, and asked him what
Tram he was waiting for, but all the
answer he made was Il feeble e,Thanll'ee

cacy or his conduct, and all his expressions since
that time, are beginning to win for him warm
place in many hearts which week ago would have
found it difficult to put charitable Interpretation
upon any act word of his.
While the threatened death of the President has
peen the OvershadOwing subject of thought and
public comment, the resulting political pOssibili-
ties and contingencies have BEEN tho burden
OF the conversational undercurrents in all
directions, and IN all this talk General
Arthur has, of course, been central figure. His
forbearance from comment, beyond giving express
sion to his sorrow, is noticed the result of the
exercise OF sound common under trying cir
cumstances, and the haSty opinions which were ex
pressed IN many quarters when the worst feared
are being revised and recalled. General Arthur
called at the Executive Mansion this afternoon and
renamed for an hOnr in conversation with members
OF the Cabinet. He did not the President, the
physicians deemi it unwisc to admit him. Men,
bers of the Cabinet speak Of him in terms of warm
friendness, and feel that he fully shares with them
the sympathy and sorrow which they entertain in
common with the Nation Mt large.
Secretary Blaine says that no one could have
borne himself with moro dignity, delicacy and pro-
priety than Vice-Presdent Arthur has during tho
trying days he has been in Washington. He has
shown says the Secretary, the utmost of good feel
ing, and has drawn toward him the kndest of rela-
tiOns.
Secretary Window speaks warmly in his praise,
as one who has sought tn bear his share of the load
which has been bearing down everyone who had
near relations with the President. Whether or not
the political complications of the recent past shall
extend far into the future, Vice President Arthur
VIII probably he remembered as one who possesses
generous heart and his share of manly common
sense.
All the Cabinet officers have called upon the Vice
President since his arrival here and all are in
friendly relations with him.
1t cannot be learned that among all the kilograms
received by friends of the President xprcssing sym
pathy with the sufferer and hopes of his speedy res
toraton to health anything has been received from

The Improvement in the condition of Presi-

ing was so reassuring that the feeling of re-
lief became general and cheerful hopeful
ness succeeded the dread of the previous day.
The crowds of anxious people that have
daily assembled in the vicinity of the
White House In expectation of the worst
were not to be seen yesterday. Cabinet Off
they were enabled to give consideration to
their official duties. The Presidents physi-
clans, while not hastily taking sangune
view of his case, did not discourage the hope
of final recovery. Bulletins issued in
the course of the day fed the public
hope. The President took nOurshmcnt
aud retained it upon his stomach, gain
ing strength thereby. His pulse was lower
throughout the day and last evening, and al
together his symptoms were such as to afford
encouragement. At midnight he was resting
quietly. An insane vagrant was arrested at
Washington for threatening the life of the
Secretary of State. The conduct of Vice
Washington has been such as to crea te favor
