The recent comet discovered by a
yonngjastronomer in Albany a week
ago if it fulfils half the promise made
for it, we may expect to behold, in
May or June, a celestial spectacle such
as has not been equalled since 1858 or
1811. The inference is fair that the
comet is a very large one, and that
when it gets into our neighborhood
it will present a magnificent appear
ance. Prof. Chandler's figures show
that It is plunging almost straight at
the sun, which it will approach with
in 100,000 miles. It was the near ap
proach of the comet of 1680 which
lead Newton to anticipate possible
peril to the earth from the fall of a
great comet into the sun.
It is as impossible to sfay Niagara
in her full tide'of power as to circum
scribe Senator Van Wyck as to his
utterances. The 'following is an il
lustration, both as to bis political
motives and literary style: "Like
the postoffice, the land department
produced this monstrosity of villiany
under a remarkably pure administra
tion. If more time had been spent
in detecting thefts and robbers, and
less in decimal fractions, the differen
tial calculus, and the orbits of the
heavenly bodies, the treasury would
not have suffered so much detriment.
These frauds in the interior depart
ment are particularly painful, for at
that time it was enjoying the distinc
tion of possessing all there was
sestbetic in the paradise of civil ser
vice. There the lily and suuflower of
American politics were scattering
their brightest hues and most fragrant
perfumes."
A terrible aud frightful disaster
overtook the steamer Golden Gate on
Friday morning en route from New
Orleans to Cincinnati, having on
board from fifty to sixty human booIb,
a number of valuable horses and wild
beasts belonging to a circus oulfit,and
a large amount of other freight. The
steamer took fire about four o'clock
in the morning, when of course near
ly all on board were asleep and al
though quickly run to the shore,
many of the passengers and crew
frora thirty to fifty were lost, either
by burning or drowning, while but a
small portion of the cargo was saved.
The casualties were principally con
fined to women and 'children, whom
it was impossible to rescue, so rapid
ly did the fiery elemeut do its fear
ful work. Those who escaped did so
with the loss of all their effects, and
many of them with burns and bruises
which may yet prove fatal. The
steamer is a total loss, and the disas
ter one which has few parallels with
in the history of Mississippi river
navigation.

A Safrgeatlea " IVatare.
Ed. Journal : When we came to
this place, two small unthrifty apple
trees stood in what was used as a
garden, I think we were told they
had been planted three or four years
before. We paid no attention to
them, and they remained it statu quo
some three years longer. They were
exposed ou the south, but well pro
tected by trees on the three other
sides. The cultivation of the spot
being discontinued, seeds from the
box-elder trees standing near one of
them, sprang up thickly around it,
forming quite a thicket about it.
During the two years since it has been
thus surrounded, it has made a fine
growth for a Nebraska apple tree
whilst the other, standing exposed,
looks as much like a thorn-bush as
ever. Every time I notice the trees
it occurs to my mind that it would be
a good idea to prepare the spot de
signed for an orchard by sewing
these or other seeds upon it a year
previous or planting the trees in a
young grove of forest trees, and re
moving them as the fruit trees re
quired. Has such plan ever been tried, or is
it a woman's impracticable notion ?
