The 18th of July.

From the Freie Presse, June %.
The reader will ask, ''What about the nth
of July" to be made the subject of newspa-
per article? 1t is mistake, the 4th is meant.
Not so. good reader, enjoy the 4th to your
hearts content once more, and then look with
day shall be fulfilled what Blanton Duncan has
grand crash on that Gay, not financial but a
terrestrial one, and it will only show after that
day what is left of our earth.
For two months past comet has been wan
dering among the celestial bodies. He can
be seen coming nearer his orbit; has been cal
culated and the proposition accepted that
never yet crossed our planetary system. At
the presen mt moment he is thirty-three millions
of French miles from US and twenty-seven mil
lions miles from the sun; its velocity is about
one million of French miles in twenty-four
hours, while the earth's velocity is only half Of
that in her circuit around the sun.
According to the calculations Of astrono-
mers the comet can be seen in broad daylight,
but unfortunately it stands so near the suns
rays that its appearance is greatly diminished.
After the nth of June the comet will draw
nearer the sun in its path around the same,
and cross the earth's orbit in such way that
the earth and moon may be caught in the
train. Now the question is, "what may be
the consequences of such a meeting for us ?"
After the discovery by spectral analysis
these trains are composed of oxygen and car
bon; both combined constitute our lighting
gas, which, if mixed with the oxygen of our
atmosphere, and light coming near it, would
cause terrible loud explosion. Now should
this really happen, and the oxygen and car
bon come in contact with our terrestrial at
mosphere, such an explosion would be the
natural consequence.
1t should therefore be a wise thing to
neither light lamp nor fire. By observing
this precaution, we may possibly be saved
from this explosion.
But it may be possible that we may suficate
in the masses of these luminous gases Of the
train, which would not be very pleasant.
Yet it would be better than for some one to
light match on the nth Of July and thus to
blow up the whole earth. Moral reflections
are useless. The terror which our readers
will experience will be sufficient to bring them
to repentance and penance.
