The comet is now seen in the west
ern sky in the evening. Thousands yea
millions of the inhabitants of the earth
will look upon il during the next few
weeks. II has been seventy five years
since II was seen, and the astronomers
tell MS that IL will not appear for an.
other three score and ten and five years.
Few persons who look upon the mys.
terious Heavenly visitor will live to
see it when it again appears. 1t is said
to be travelling away from the earth
at rate Of million miles per day.
This great comet gives us some idea of
the immensity of space and the Omni-
potence of that Power whose glory the
Heavens declare, and whose handiwork
is shown in the armament. IL teaches
us "how frail is man" and yet we re.
member that "God is mindful Of him,
that he directs his steps, bottles up his
tears, and remembers that he is dust. +"
Yet this God is our father, He loves us,
and assures us that He will not with.
hold any good thing from them that
walk uprightly.
