TIC Orbit OF the Comet.

WASHINGTON, December 19.-Professor
Frisby, of the Naval Observatory, has Just
completed calculation Of the orbit OF the
great comet Of 1882 from observations made
on September 10Th, October Sth, and No.
vember 9th, and finds the orbit to be a
very heightened eclipse, having a period
of about 193, and probably identical with a
very large comet seen 81 Il. c. and 3C3
a. Dust about the time of the death
OF Constantine. Its pcrihelIon distance Is
only about 100000 miles from the centre
OF the sun, and it extends outwards
at aphelion TO about ninety times the
suns distance from the earth. He gives the
following results OF his calculations, which
he believes to be very near the truth, al
though on account OF the extreme length
OF the orbit the time may be somewhat un-
certain: Time Of perihelion passage, Sep
TENDER 18th, 222S2 Greenwich mean time
longitude OF node, 34Go l. 7.9I; dis ance
from perihellon to node, 60 81 II. 40: IN.
clination to ecliptic, 1ilo so 82.IJ,; angle
OF ecccntricity, 500 u 1910; logarithm OF
halt major axis, 1.033lSGC: logarithm OF
perihclion distance, 7.S90i739; time OF
revolution, 793,GS9 years-so that It is not
likely to be seen after it passes from sight
by any one now living.

Earthquake Shocks.
A GENERAL snAK1Xc-UP N NEW HANpsu

A GENERAL SGAK1NC-UP II NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Earthquake shocks were felt in various
parts OF New Hampshire or Tuesday. y
Dover special OF The 18th says:
Two slight but very perceptiblc shocks
OF earthquake, lasting ten seconds, were
experienced here ut about 5:15 L. NJ. to-
day. causing great alarm. The shocks were
accompanied by n rumbling noise. They
were felt IN Rollinsford, Rochester, and
other neighboring towns. The people
rushed out Of their houses much Devil
dercd.
AT Contoocook the sbocl, was the heaviest
that has been experienced in ten years, and
lasted several seconds.
A dispatch from Concord says: One Of
the scverest earthquake shocks ever expo
rienced here occurred at twenty-lour
minutes past o'clock this afternoon.
There was sound like heavy explosion,
buildings were shaken, and the inmates
rushed into the streets. The conclusion
eXtlnguished the gas in one building. The
shock seemed to those indoors like thar Of
some heavy object falling, and appeared to
be above rather than below. 1t evidently
travelled from cast 10 west, and was felt in
Pittsficld about four minutes later than
here. II was also felt at Great Falls, Man.
chester, and other places. The shock
lasted eight OF ten seconds.

Yaslfy Eurued al q Fire.

BOSTON, December i9-1l:5J 7. NJ
Three alarms have been sounded for fire
in the fvo-story brick building corner OF
New Washington street and Cornhill, oc-
cupicd by John p. Lowell & Sons, dealers
in firearms, powder, and sporting goods.
The fire was caused by m explosion OF gas,
and for ten minutes after the flames were
seen there was 4 series OF small explosions
OF cartridges, etc. AT 1l:4j p. VI. the IRE
was got under control. Warren Lowell. one
of the firm, and Oscar Peayy, watch
nan, were badly burned about tie head.
throat, and arms, and we're removed TO z
hotel and placed under the care Of physi-
clans. It is understood that they will re-
cover. II was feared at first that there was
large quantity of explosive material in
the building, but it WAS finally learned that.
aside from small cartridges, there was bat
one large copper canister OF powder in the
store, and this was piucliily carried ou' by
firemen in the midst OF the flames. Mr.
Lowell had Si25,000 worth OF stool, in The
building, which is mostly ruined. It j,
insured for SO. 600. The building is dam
aged to about $4,000.

The Supreme Court of Appeals.


The Supreme Court OF Appeals distin-
guished itself at its closing session. The
Petersburg cases and the GANNT case were
very important ones, and involved highly
interesting questions. We think The pub
lie generally will say that they were all de-
cided Alright. Judge LEwIs's opinion sat
isles us that the decision in the Petersburg
cases was correct. AS to the GANNT case
we said on the 10th OF July last:
s'Hon. John Paul told the people OF
Rockingham county last Monday that the
decision OF Judge Wexford i'm the Gannt
case was proof that the Democrats had not
gwen up the fight on the Debt question.
How does it happen that the Democrats are
responsible for that decision? Judge Well
ford showed manly, Independent spirit in
rendering it. 1t was certainly not a labor
OF love or pleasure thus to challenge the
Legislature which claims the right to turn
him out Of Office. We honor him for bis
fearlessness. Nevertheless, we must be
permitted to say that as the decision has not
yet been approved by the Supreme Court
OF Appeals 1t does not yet appear what
Athe Funder courts will say on the SUBJ
ject."

"At" an election means, to use WoE-
CEsTER's phrase, "coexistcnt or coincident
with" an clcction-that is, "during" an
election; or, whilst the election is going on.
An offence might OF course be committed
"at an election" though not done in the
presence Of the election officers or at the
voting-placc. But wherever or whenever
the act Is done, it must be done "at an
election "-during an election--ii il is to
come under Il law providing for the pun
ishment of offences committed "atv an
election.
And we would add that an offence is not
punishable sat law" unless the law is 500
existent or coincident with the act con-
stituting the offence.

Three Attempts at seif.Dcsiruction.

An Erie telegram Of the 10Th says: Mrs.
Michael Maher, Of this city, received tel
egram this morning from Youngstown,
Ohio, stating that her sister, Laura L.
HAYES. attempted suicide last evening by
taking strychnine. This young woman
undertook; to commit suicide by taking
laudanum in Erie about year ago, but she
was discovered by a young man who had
called at her room at her request, and she
was taken directly TO Il doctors Office,
where proper antidotes were admins
tered. She then went to the house of
her father, in Union City, but re-
turned 4 day later and was found al
most frozen to death ut the front door Of
her residence, in West Fourth street, Erie,
where she had been formerly employed rs
a domestic. She recovered. Afterwards
she went to Sharon, where she engaged IN
dressmaking until Saturday last. Failing
TO find employment, size decided TO take
poison, saying she was tired OF living.
This is the third attempt to take her life.
Her husband deserted her few years ago,
and it is supposed her mind became affected
as the result Of the trouble.
