COMETS AND GETEORs.

PROF, BHARPLEss' LECTURE LAST
EVENING BEFORE THE TRIRNDs'
LYCEUM.
Prof. Sharpless delivered the last
of his two lectures last evening, his
subject being tComets and Meleors."
1t was even more largely attended than
before. Comets are said to fOretell
evil, calamity, aud seldom good. Some
comets have appeared az large AZ the
sun, that filed one-fourth part of the
sky and took four hours TO rice and
set. A comets path is sometimes
changed to an eclipse by coming near
q planet. Jupiter il called the "Po-
licemaD," because Of changing 90
many comets orbits. The tail Of q
comet is always away from the sun,
thus causing it TO pass through more
space than the head. In doing &C
sometimes The tail becomes detached
and flies of. Somstimes one comet
will have 1--WE, three and SIX tails, al
different periods. The comet of 1846,
which had come back for ak years in
1851, parted in half until the Two parts
were millions of miles apart. These
two parts revOlved together In the
samc orbit in perfect harmony. i
was feared that ON its next coming
the earth aud it Would collide. OI
the night set apart for its coming i
did come, striking the erath, buI
broke. In England it rained meteOrs
and the rest Of it passed off IS melOori
in to the sky, c,-uslng q brilliant dis
play. This comet being seen no more
Is supposed to be destroyed. The
tail of comet is supposed to be COM
posed of hydYdrogen and carbon,
Prof. Newton says II you hold Q gur
up in air and shoot it of, you are Al
likely to hit a bird as q comet 10 Ol
striking q planet. The size and
shapes of comets In their different
changes was illustrated by many beau.
tiful views. Both OF his lectures have
been very interesting and instructive
and it il hoped he may again some tC
