THE NEW COMET.
Visible to the Naked Eye and Rapidly
Increasing in Brilliancy -Its Maim..
sions.
The new comet is looming up hand-
somely to the aetronomer's eye, and indeed
is visible to all but the near-sighted in the
morning hours before twilight 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 aline
from the star Capella through Beta
Aurigw, which is a bright star eight or
ten degrees lower and to the right. By
extending this line a further distance,
equel to the apparent distance from
star to star, the position of the comet is
reached. It is now rapidly increasing
in brightness. Its distance frona the.earth
is about 97,000,000 miles. The diameter
of the bright part surrounding the nucleus
is 11,750 miles; that of the bright coma, -
110,000 miles; total diameter of the
envelope 200,000 miles; length of the tail,
3,000,000 miles or more. Thedeviations
of the orbit from the predictions up to
August 2nd were 3m. 59s. in right asceu
sion, and .1.9m. in declination. These
results are satisfactory, considering the
unfavorable position or rather direction of
the comet's motion whenthe three earlieet
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 cornet greater .than that of the
great comet �f 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
apparition. --Boston Daily Advertiser. "

,,NOT DEAD BUT SLEEPETIFL'
Piteous Details of the Butchery of Tw
, Children -Their Uncle Thought They
were Asleep.
On the evening of Saturday, August 6th,
a most horrible and 'mysterious murder
was committed in the outskirts of Wash-
ington, the victims being two little 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-
tuned at 5 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 b y was stark
and stiff, 'while Joe's tender bs, like his
sister's, naked to the evening breeze, yet
retained some slight warmth. At . their
feet was found a new axe, but on it was
neither spot nor blemish. At their head
the murderer, with a refinement of cruelty,
had placed a 'small fir tree set in a wooden
stand, 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, hut
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 wenian and her
daughter, neighbors, whom hecaused to be
arrested. The corpses were carried into
-the-Iniuse, and the women, against whom
.there is- not at present a tissue of evidence,
were removed in custody. Mr.' Fibber's
story is that on Saturday at noon hisevife,
the children and himself all dined together,

o A Three Time Condemned to Death
Murderer Mang at Last.
Nathan Orlando Greenfield was executed
at Syracuse on Friday morning for the
murder of his wife at Orwell, Oswego
county, in 1875. The case was remarkable
for the stubborn contest in the courts.
There were three trials. The jury once
disagreed and twice found hitt guilty.
Three death sentences were passed, and
there were five stays and reprieves. On the
sixth day formally set the execution took
place, five years and nine months after the
crime was committed. After so many
escapes from the gallows, Greenfield was
confident that he would not be hung, and
gave up hope of commutation only under
the gallows. Vigorous efforts to gain the
Governor's interference were in vain. The
execution took place in the jail in presence
of 200 persons, officials, witnesses and press
representatives. The prisoner was calm
and unconcerned. Being asked if he had
anything to say, he replied, nothing. The
trap was isprunge at 11 o'clock. A scene
took place just before the execution. The
peisoner's brother insisted on standing by
him -to the last, declaring him to be inno-
cent. Thia the sheriff refused as unlawful.

and told them not to forget to bring them

They never saw them alive again. • It was

The Question of Mourning.
(From London Spectator.)
Nzitures, cif course, differ widely, and there
are I-Oome who (probably in consequence of
having been accustomed from their earliest
years to regard black as the emblem 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 there are many whose inclina-
tions are just the reverse. The sort of
self-consciou ness and strangeness of feel-
ing which us/w.IIy accompany, brand new
clothes are jlistasteful to them in a time
of trouble, and they Wish only to go about
in whatever they are in the habit of wear-

" IIITSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE "
01 an Illinois Editor -Was Ho Robbed
and Murdered ?
About a fortnight ago, during the Chicago
races at the Jockey Club Park, a gentleman
was suddenly seen to fall back insensible,
just as the bell rang for another heateTwo
men, stranars to the crowd, but supposed
at the moment to be friends of the sick
man, immediately took charge of him. It
is now known that the person struck down
was Mr. C. N. Wales, editor of the Paris,
Ill., Republican, whose disappearance dates
from that day. Nothing has since been
heard of him, nor does any one know who
those were who proffered ta come to his
assistance. It is*understood that he carried
a large sum of money with him, and there
are those who say they saw a man in an
apparently fainting condition, carried out
by three others, placed in a carriage, and
borne away from the park. Here the evi-
dence, such as it is, ends.
The talk about Mr. Wales' disappeaf-
ance had just begun to subside, when
Thursday last, the 4th inst., the body of
unknown man was picked up in the lake.
At 'first little was thought of so common an
occurrence, till some one saw, or fancied he
saw, in the corpse a likeness to Mr. Wales,
and now many of the friends of that gen-
tleman positively assert that the body is
his. The pockets•were duly examined, but
these afforded no clue to the deceased, nor
did his linen. Money, watch„jewellery, all
wen gone, leaving those interested to come
to the conclusion that those who removed
him from the • race -course were thieves,
who tint robbed the insensible Man, per-
haps murdered him, in any cese threw his
remains into the lake to avoid trouble. So
mysterious is the whole affair that even
the -detectives make 'no pretensions to hav-
ing any idea as to the true state of the
case. .
