The Comet Now Visible.
n. Y. Herald. d

~ ~
The new comet now visible in the
northern skies is likely to disappoint
some who anticipated a brilliant &C.
lestial visitor. From the calculations
made by Mr.. Hind, the English
astronomer, from the Harvard and
Albany observations, and those of
Professors Tacchini at Rome, the
comets perihelion passage will occur
on June 10. The intensity of its light
will then be more than fifteen times as
great as it was when first discovered
by Mr.. Wells. AT the ascending node,
which it will pass July /, it will APP
proach to a distance of only 443,500
miles of the earth, Ur, roughly speak
ing, to about twice the distance Of the
moon. Its present velocity is about
forty miles per second, but this will
be more than doubled as it makes its
nearest approach to the sun, the second
week OF next month. The tail of the
comet Immediately after its perihelion
passage may undergo wonderful change
under solar influence, as did that
of the great comet Of 1880, which was
found by Newton to have been no less
than twenty million leagues long and
to have occupied only two days in its
emission from the comets body.
Though the present comet approaches
nearer the sun than many of its pre-,
decessors we may contemplate with
serenity the possibility of its collision
with the great luminary. If the
suns atmosphere, as is probable, con
tains oxygen, the comets combustion
would take place long before it
reached the heaviug solar surface, and
THE bombaTding material" as Mr..
Mattieu Williams forcibly says,
would be a great gas bubble, 8
swiftly rushing blast OF carboniC
oxide, carbonic acid and aqueous
vapor," producing a huge sun spo'
bordered by pillows of fame. ThiI
might give us another aurora, but it i
doubtful whether terrestrial Their
mometers would sensibly respond t,

~NAsHvILLE'S PROSPERITY
Amply Demonstrated in the Vast
Increase Of Its Postofice
Business.
The "Athens Of the South" the
ninth office in Publishing In
terests in the United States.
Nashville World, q.

A representative of the World, yes
terday, had an exceedingly interesting
interview with DR.. W. 2. Jones,
Nashville's courteous and most eff
cient Postmaster, relative to the pro-
posed or contemplated changes in the
city Office upon its removal to the new
building on Broad, Spruce and Vine
streets.
DR.. Jones stated that at his urgent
solicitation, about feur years ago,
General NJ. LaRue Harrison, Special
Agent Of the Postofice Department,
came to Nashville and arranged the
subdivision of labor and the salaries
among the employees of the Nashville
Office. Since then the business of the
Nashville Office has almost doubled ia
all its departments, and yet within that
time there has been no additional cler-
ical force or increased appropriation
for the Office. General Harrison was
again in Nashville, last week, and
examined carefully into the conditions
and requirements of the Nashville
Office as we'll as the necessities as to
the internal arrangements of the new
Office soon to be occupied. All this
he did as a personal kindness to DR.
Jones, and during a leave of absence
from the Department. de stated,
prior to his departure, that upon his
arrival in Washington, he would make
known to the First Assistant Post
master General the important facts
ELECTED, and thinks Nashville ought
to have an additional appropriation
and hence more workers in the office.
In order, however, to show how the
business Of the Nashville Office has
increased, and that the oft-repeated
assertion that Nashville is rapidly
growing in population, in business and
importance is not mere idle boasting,
the following table will show the
comparative business for the past FIVE
years:

How 10 Cook Rice.

Rice is becoming a much more pop
ular article Of food than heretofore.
1t is frequently substituted for pota-
toes at the chief meal of the day,
being more nutritious and much more
readily digested. At its present cost,
it is relatively cheaper than potatoes,
oatmeal or grain grits of any kind.
In preparing it only just enough cold
water should be poured on to prevent
the rice from burning at the bottom
of the pot, which should have a close
fitting cover, and with a moderate fire
the rice is steamed rather than boiled
until it is nearly done; then the cover
is taken off, the surplus steam and
moisture allowed to escape, and the
rice turns out a mass Of snow white
kernels, each separate from the other,
and as much superior to the usual
soggy mass, as a fine mealy potato is
superior to the water soaked article.

DonsInpia Baby.


Yesterday evening a servant girl on
Canal street, near Howard, while push
ing a carriage with a little baby in it,
had her head so turned by the Inter
state drill, hal she was perfectly OBJ
livious to the fact that but one wheel
Of the carriage was on the bridge and
the other over the gutter. Her capa-
cious mouth was open IN idiotic won
der at the numerous vehicles passing
to the fair grounds, and her mind
was centered on the gaily dressed ladies
going out there. Little thought had
she of the valuable freight she was
wheeling, and the next moment the
precious darling was precipitated into
a deep and muddy gutter. But a few
moments before, the child looked as
beautiful as only a mother could have
wished 10 see it, but alas in a second,
what terrible transformation had this
cruelty negligent girl eausedl Snatched
from the gutter by a kind ~passer.by,
the child resembled anything but hui
man as it was 6shed out. Mud from
head to foOt-waier in its eyes, mouth
and ears, and the little darling scream
ing with fright. The stupid girl see.
ing what had befallen the child, grab
bed it from it rescuer, and running
into the yard Of the house where the
baby lived, proceeded TO turn the
hydrani on it. The screams of the
child brought the ladies to the scene
and taking in at a glance the stupidit.
Of their servant, saved the baby from
an additional bath.

just splendid, but all this plays out in
a few months, and then comes the
Gacts-the hard pan. The earth then
is earthly, and the heavenly vanishes,
and the baby has to be nursed OF
nights, and the sugar gets low, and
the diamond wedding ring won't bring
color to the poor wife's cheeks, and
