COMETARY PHENOMENA.

On Monday night about midnight,
the 10th inst, Prof. Swift. director
of the Warner Observatory, Roch-
ester, N. Y. discovered another com
ct in the same constellation with the
one recently found by Prof. Brooks
1t is moving almost directly toward
the earth, and hence shows very
little motion, 30 that Prof. Swift
found it difficult TO verify and was
unable TO do 30 until last Saturday
night. The two comets will very
likely cross each others orbits in
their progress, and their appearance
go nearly together, and within &C
short space Of time is a most singu-
lar, il not significant fact.
