The new comet is looming 11 hand- somely to the astronomer's eye, an indeed is visible to all but the near-3i hted in the morning hours before twilig t by the unassisted power of vision. Abut the middle of the week it will be discernible in the evening after twilight near to the horizon at the point somewhat north of northwest. At present the direction for finding it in the morning is to carry a line from the star Ca ella through Beta Aurigm, which is a right star eight or ten degrees lower and to the right. By extending this line a further istance, equal to the apparent distance from star to star, the position of the comet is reached. It is now rapidly increasing in brightness. Its distance from the earth is about 97,000,000 miles. The diameter of the bright part surroundin the nucleus ‘ is 11,750 miles; that of the right coma, 140,000 miles; total diameter of the envelope, 200,000 miles ; length of the tail, 3,000,000 miles or more. The deviations of the orbit from the predictions up to August 2nd were 3m. 59s. in right ascen' sion, and 1.9m. in declination. These results are satisfactory. considering the unfavorable position or rather direction of the comet's motion when the three earliest observations were taken. That direction was almost towards the earth. Had the direction or apparent motion been, so to speak, athwart the sky, more accurate predictions would have been possible. The development of the tail before perihelion is in this comet greater than that of the great comet of 1858. On last Thursday night the comet for the first time'kept above the horizon all night, or technically speaking, entered the circle of perpetual apparitionâ€"Boston Daily Advertiser.

(The lady who refused a handsome dress of striking tint, saying:' “ My curtains wouldn’t stand it,” had, no doubt, the eye of an artist. That six pretty bridesmaids should be attired in what Miss Intenselv Tootoo would term the “ livery of love” is a custom common on both sides of the Atlantic. Ladies attending races on Mr. Lorillard’s drag at Coney Island, or Mr. Chaplin’s at Good- wood, wear the owner‘s colors. Furni- ture en suite. sisters’ dresses to match, the servants’ livery and the tint of the panels of the carriage he drivesâ€"all these combinations of color are sanctioned by custom. The last new thing, however, seems carrying the matter to extremes. Many ladies now wear skirts corresponding in color, texture and material with the front awnings of the house. A thrifty housewife, when she gives the order for these awnings, tells the maker to send home three yards of the piece for herself, and the same material shades the front windows and forms the‘dress of the fair mistress. Well, if our sisters have stolen the Turkish towels from the bath-room to make their jackets, the girths from the stable for their belts, why not a skirt oi! the outside awnin , a sash from the outside blind, a stripe tablecloth for a shawl and a colored duster for a headdress ? These fashions have two advantagesâ€"they are striking and economical.â€"â€"N. Y. Tribune. or rather to demohstrate, what had air will do for us and what we can do with it. His object was not to prove that bad air was poison, but that it was a poison which we are able to take to a great and deleteri- ous extent by gradual and continued doses. He proved-it thus. He introduced a spar- row into a glass globe, all the apertures of which were hermetically sealed. The sparrow seemed lively enough for an hour, but then evidently sufiered from the ill effects of breathing air that had already passed through its lungs. When a second hour had elapsed, Bernard introduced a second sparrow into the same globe. It seemed stunned, and in the lapse of a few minutes died. The original bird was left in for an hour longer, when it dropped and fell. It was taken out apparently dead, but under the influence of fresh air and sunshine recovered. M. Bernard, in ‘ the interests rather of science than of the sparrow, cruelly restored it to the globe, when almost instantly it tattered and died. .The‘ application of this to the human subject is obvious enough. We are, at most English meetings and places of amuse- ment, in the position of that first sparrow. We start with a fair field and no favor. The as is only lit just before the public are 'admi ted ; in the dining room the windows have been open till the guests arrive. In both something like hermetical sealing takes place, and there is gradual asphyxiation. If it were sudden, people would die, as the second sparrow died; but being gradual, they get indurated like the ‘first sparrow. They pant and gasp, and say the heat is intolerable, but they are able to stand it. It IE not till the next morning that the headache asserts itself. Bernard, the great French toxicologist, made a. series of experiments p0 illusgrate, On the evening of Saturday, August 6th, a most horrible and mysterious murder was committed in the outskirts of Wash- ington, the victims being twolittle children, a boy aged 3 and his sister aged 6. They lived with their uncle and aunt who left them at home, while they themselves had gone to market. The uncle having re- turned at 6 o’clock in the evening, found the two lying side by side under the shade of a large oak tree. with their brains scat- tered round. and their life-blood bedewing the grass. Little Lizzie’s body was stark and stiff, while J oe's tender limbs, like his sister’s, naked to the evenin breeze, yet retained some slight warmt . At their feet was found a new axe, but on it was neither 3 t nor blemish. At their head the mur erer, with a refinement of cruelty, had glaced a small fir tree set in a wooden stan , which last Christmas had been hung with presents for the innocent victims of some fiendish grudge against their guardians. Mr. Fisher, the uncle, thinking they were asleep, allowed them to lie without disturbing them, but after he had stabled his horse, he went up to them and at once discovered the awful truth. His cries brought others to the spot, and among them a colored woman and her daughter, neighbors, whom he caused to be arrested. The corpses were carried into the house, and the women, against whom there is not at present a tissue of evidence, were removed in custody. Mr. Fisher’s gatory is that on Saturday at noon his wife, the children and, himself all dined together, the little ones being cheerful and happy. Lizzie was told to have the dining-room and kitchen swept, and a fire laid for her uncle and aunt when they returned, and then they all went to the gate of the grounds together. When the old people set off the little ones waved their good-byes, and told them not to forget to bring them back some candies and toys from the city. They never saw them alive again.

Sorrow may be none the less true and deep because it shrinks from ostentatious parade â€"-from wearing the heart on the sleeve, for flaws to peek at; it may feel that the inade- quacy of outward signs to give it expres- , sion makes any attempt at doing so a mere mockery, and may prefer to conceal itself, ‘ as far as possible, under its wonted exter- ior. How can real grief be represented fittingly by craps and hatbands? And if no real grief exist, then the whole affair is nothing but a miserable exhibition of hum-. bug and hypocrisyâ€"an appeal to the world for sympathy and commiseration upon false pretences. What sort of sorrow is felt by relatives who say, “ Oh! we must put the children into mourning for Uncle So-and- soâ€"he’s left us something in his will ;” or else, “ I shan't trouble about black for cousin Such-an-oneâ€"he’s left me nothing ;’.’ ‘ as the case may be! It would be surely‘ more honest for such pretended mourners as these to asfiume signs of rejoxcing or woe, according as they do or do not find theméelves the possessors of fresh riches. Even when sorrow is really felt its intensity and duration will not be alike in all cases where the relationship is the same, because no two husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, or other relations, will love one another in exactly the same degree; and on this account there must necessarily be something foolish and unreal in a practice which assumes that the depth and extent of regret may be reckoned on according to nearness of kin. More or less of shoppiness and hollowness is almost inseparable from the wearing of mourning, according to the present custom ; yet there is that about death which is apt to put human nature essentially out of tune for all that is artificial and sham. Again, how can any one who believes in the resur- rection reconcile it with his conscience to make everything connected with death dark, gloomy and melancholy ‘2 If he has that sure confidence which he professes to have as to the departed being- safe from all future dangers, and having passed to a state of bliss far beyond what is attainable upon iearth, why does he not rejoice in their hap iness ? Does he think them out of reac of sympathy, because out of sight ? Or is he too selfish to let the thought of their gain outweigh that of his own loss ? In 1875 a Mourning Reform Association was started by three ladies, and has cer. tainly commended itself to the public mind to some extent. seeing that it new numbers 450 members. It discourages the use of mourning stationery, wearing of erape. and putting of children and servautninto black; recommends that mourning should be shown by a black band round the arm. or by a black scarf, and aims generally at i minimizing mourning. ‘ Japanese Code of (floral: [or Women.

Natures. of course, differ widely, and there are some who (pr bably in consequence of having been accus med from their earliest years to regard black as the.emhlem of death and sadness) find some amount of relief and comfort in wearing mourning when afriend dies and feel a satisfaction in marking the especial event with especial garments. But all are not of this way of thinking and thereare many whose inclina- tions are just the reverse. The sort of self-consciousness and strangeness of feel- ing which usually accompany brand new clothes are distasteful to them in a time of trouble, and they wish only to go about in whatever they_arc in the habit of wear. .\.Three Times Condemned to Death Murderer ”any at hull.
