Antient Coins. Lately, as a man was ploughing on the estate of George Tennyson, Esq. at Tealby, in the Wolds of Lincolnshire, he struck upon an earthen pot or urn of coarse manufacture, containing upwards of 6000 silver pieces, all of .which, on examination, proved to be pennies of King Henry II. This is the greatest quantity of coin ever found together in the kingdom. The pennies of that early period are nearly equal in intrinsic worth to 3d. of our money; and considering the difference between the comparative value of money and commodities in the present age and the twelfth century, in which this treasure was probably buried, the deposit would be equal, at the time, to about £1000 of modern computation. The coins are of various mints, many bearing the names of towns where it has been hitherto unknown that money was ever struck, and with whose monies antiquaries were previously unacquainted. A selection of the pieces has been deposited in the British Museum, others have gone to enrich private collections, particularly that of Sir Joseph Banks, who undertook their arrangement, and the rest continue in Mr. Tennyson's possession. The deposit was made in what but a few years since was a large and wild open field, on the highest part of the wolds; a road formerly ran near the spot, which is a rising ground, by some supposed to be a tumulus or barrow. The circumjacent land has been carefully dug over, in the expectation of additional treasures, but without suc cess. King William's Birth Day, in Ireland.-In consequence of Mr. Giffard's motion in the Common Council, the Lord Mayor, at the request of the corporation of Dublin, waited on the Duke of Richmond, to desire the 4th of November might be celebrated in the same manner it usually had been, previously to the arrival of the Duke of Bedford. His Grace lamented his inability to comply with the request of the corporation, só far as regarded the procession round the statue. As that had been discontinued by his predecessor, under an idea that it promoted party, he did not think it prudent to revive it. His Grace, however, condescendingly added, he would have the honour of entertaining the city at dinner on that day. King of Sweden's Birth Day.-Nov. 1, the Swedes in London celebrated the anniversary of their sovereign's birth with great demonstrations of loyalty. Te Deum was sung in the Swedish church, in Princes-square, and an appropriate sermon preached by the chaplain to the legation. After service the Ambassador invited a number of his counrtymen to dine, at his house in Albemarle-street, at which the healths of the Kings of Sweden and Great Britain were drank, as usual, by the company, standing. The poor of the congregation had an extra allowance for the day; and the collection for the Swedish Patriotic Fund lately established in London, to give relief to the wounded Swedish soldiers, and to widows and orphans of the slain in the different engagements with the French in Pomerania, as also to the Swedish prisoners in France, was very liberal. New Light House.-On Michaelmas-day, the foundation stone of the new light-house, near the centre of Dockwray-square, Newcastle, was laid. At the same time the corporation of the Trinity House, of Newcastle, contracted with the right hon, Lord Collingwood for another piece of ground in the angle of the Lowlights quay for another light-house; the former is to be seventy, and the latter eighty-four feet high, and when finished will afford a safer direction for vessels to enter the river Tyne. Organ in St. Andrew's Church, Glasgow.-A grand organ lately erected in St. Andrew's church, Glasgow, was opened on Sunday the 6th of September, being the first instance of the admission of instrumental music into public worship in any Presbyterian church, in this kingdom; but the Presbytery conceiving this to be contrary to the statute laws of the kingdom as well as the canons of the church, have put a stop to its farther use, until the opinion of the General Assembly is known. Lead Ore. Several rich veins of lead have lately been discovered under the castle at Tynemouth. Five are apparent in the face of the rock near the fort; and some beautiful specimens of the ore, which had been broken off, have been gathered, and are now in the library of the Literary and Philosophical Society of Newcastle. Martello Tower.-A martello tower, upon a very extraordinary scale, is now building at East Bourne. It has an advanced circular wall, of considerable thickness, behind which is another support, consisting entirely of beach timber; and the walls of the tower itself will be so strong, as to render it impregnable in every point. These towers are supplied with cisterns, upon a very commodious and economical construction: they consist of squares of oak timber, lined with lead, the eighth part of an inch in thickness. North Devon Agricultural Society.-At the general annual meeting of this society, which was held at Barnstaple, there were exhibited a very fine show of that valuable breed of bullocks peculiar to the North of Devon, and a number of excellent sheep. A large and respectable party sat down to dinner at three o'clock, and no doubt can be entertained but that the highest benefit will be derived by the exertions of this invaluable establishment, to the adjacent country. This laudable institution is intended to introduce into a district where agriculture is but little understood, a better system of tillage, and to ameliorate the condition of the labouring poor, by rendering them industrious. Sodbury Mop.-A new mart for hiring servants, chiefly to be employed in agriculture and the work in farm-houses, drew a concourse of, it is supposed, four or five thousand persons to that small town. The candidates for services, men and women, were numerous; few went away without engagements, as the masters and mistresses were nearly as numerous. The neighbourhood of Sodbury must soon find the same effects from this institution as have been experienced from the Statute Meetings so long and so beneficially established at Tetbury, Cirencester, and other places in Gloucestershire and the adjacent countries. Shakspeare's Cliff.-The commanding engineer at Dover has it in contemplation to pull down the cliff to the southward of, the town, called Hay Cliff, but more generally known by the title of Shakspeare's Cliff, so distinguished from the allusion made to it by our immortal bard, in the play of King Lear. The plan is as follows, viz. the cliff is to be lowered about 50 or 60 feet, so as to leave a level space, in order that a battery of 20 guns may be erected, under the idea that the guns of the castle and heights are not able to take the coast to the eastward of the castle, and to the westward towards Folkestone. The perpendicular height of the cliff is thought to be now 350 feet, and has for centuries past excited the admiration of every beholder, and is the common topic of conversation with travellers who visit the town. Kingsgate House.The celebrated and beautiful marine residence of the first Lord Holland, at Kingsgate, in the Isle of Thanet, at which Charles II. and his brother James, Duke of York, landed, on the restoration, from Holland, is purchased, with its plantations and demesne of downs, by Mr. Froggett, the solicitor, for 3,000 guineas, and is now pulling down, in order to convert the scite into appropriate erections for sea-bathing visitants. The Holland family expended on this once favourite spot more than £100,000 sterling. Mineralogy.-Several gentlemen of landed property have determined to examine certain chains of mountains, in the principality of Wales, with regard to the beds of minerals that may be deposited in them, the veins of metallic ores that intersect them, and the distinct strata of which they are composed. The investigation, which ́is conducted under the direction of Mr. Accum, has already proved successful beyond expectation. In a small part of the prescribed range several mineralogical veins of copper ore have been disclosed, and an extensive vein of lead ore has been traced across a valley near Linfair, in Merionethshire, pursuing a course not less than 200 feet, under a stratum of rock not more than two feet in thick ness. Literary Institution.-At a meeting of the proprietors of the intended Literary Institution at Reading, held a few days since, at the Town Hall, it was unanimously resolved, that a proper situation for a library and reading-room should be procured, and other necessary arrangements made for its establishment, as soon as possible, and a committee for that purpose was appointed. A considerable addition has recently been made to the subscription, which now amounts to upwards of one hundred shares, at £30 each. Process of Soap.-Count Rumford has made a new application of the process of heating water by steam, to the manufacturing of soap. By this means, he has succeeded in boiling soap to a proper degree in six hours, which in the common mode, required sixty. He is of opinion that this saving of time is partly owing to the concussions given to the mixture of oil and lie by the heated vapour forced into it, and suddenly condensed. Coal Vein.-A vein of coal of fine quality, equal to that of Newcastle, has lately been opened on Long Down, about three miles from Exeter; and the most sanguine expectations are entertained that it will ultimately turn out of great magnitude and importance. Apiary. At the autumnal meeting of the western Apiarian society, held on the 8th of October at Exeter, it was resolved-That a premium of the first rate shall next year again be given to the person who shall take from his apiary the without greatest quantity of honey and wax, destroying the bees, leaving the colony equally heavy as on the first of May ;-and that a like premium shall be divided between two or three cottagers who shall, in like manner, take the value of the rent of their cottages.-That a preminm of the third rate shall be given to the resident gardener or servant of any nobleman or gentleman who shall take the greatest quantity from his master's apiary; and a premium of the fourth rate shall be given to the operator who shall take the greatest quantity from those of his employers; and that a reward of three pounds shall be given to the first person who shall convict any robber of an apiary in the year 1808. Workington Agricultural Society-The branch of the Workington Agricultural Society, established in the Isle of Man, held their first meeting, Sept. 24, at St. John's for the distribution of their premiums. The lieutenant-governor, the Bishop, Deemsters, and a number of the principal gentlemen yeoman and farmers attended on the occasion. Mr. Curwen, the president, addressed the successful candidates in a very appropriate and energetic manner, and made several very pertinent observations on the general state of the agriculture of the island, and of the great improvements which might be introduced. An application, was made to the lieutenant-governor, to address Sir Joseph Banks, for the purpose of ascertaining in what manner some merino tups could be procured from his Majesty's flock, for the improvement of the fleece. Spec mens of wool were produced, which, in its present neglected state, was worth 1s. 6d. per pound; and which greatly exceeds any under similar circumstances in the North of England. From the spirit with which the institution is supported, it cannot fail of producing a rapid improvement in the island. Colonel Taubman took the opportunity of proposing, that the annual meeting should, in future, be holden at his farm, at the White-house; which gave the greatest satisfaction to every one present. Historical Society.-The anniversary meeting of this useful and excellent institution, was held at the City Arms, Northgate, Canterbury, on Thursday last, and was respectably attended by upwards of seventy persons, who partook of an exceedingly good supper. Amongst the company were the Mayor, Messrs. Baker and Taylor, the members of the city, Mr. Farquhar, Mr. Brook Taylor, Mr. Hammond jun., Mr. Alderman Sankey, &c. &c. Mr. Alderman Cooper presided in the chair, and the evening was spent with the greatest conviviality. New Public Library. A new literary institution is about being established in London.Its site will be the vicinity of Blackfriar'sbridge, and it will be especially calculated to accommodate the centre of the metropolis, as it is considered that the royal and the London institutions adapt themselves more particularly to the west and east ends of the town. It is intended to include a valuable and extensive library, an arrangement for lectures on the different branches of philosophy and science, and commodious rooms for reading the foreign and -domestic journals, and other periodical works. The number of proprietors is to be twelve hundred; and their subscript on, twenty guineas. The number of life-subscribers to be six hundred; their subscription, ten guineas; and that of annual subscribers, two guineas. Administration of Justice in Scotland.—At a numerous meeting of the noblemen, gentlemen, justices of the peace, freeholders, and commissioners of supply of the county of Ayr, ately convened for the purpose of taking into consideration, "An Act touching the Administration of Justice in Scotland, and touching Appeals to the House of Lords," the Earl of Eglinton, after expressing his sentiments upon the subject, mov. ed the following resolution be adopted, "That the proposed bill, which the meeting had been called upon to consider, was inadequate for remedying the defects which have been found to exist in the present form and constitution of the court of session, and for improving the administration of justice in civil causes in Scotland; which motion was seconded by Mr. Campbell, of Treesbanks, and carried by a majority of 35 to 8. Irregular Marriages.-The provincial synod of Merse and Teviotdale met lately at Kelso, when an appropriate sermon was preached by Mr. Chalmers, minister of Mordington, from Acts, chap. 5, verses 39 and 39. The synod then made choice of Mr. David Hogarth, minister of Makerston, to be their moderator for the ensuing half year. There was no business of importance before the synod, excepting a reference for advice from the Kirk session and Presbytery of Kelso, respecting a marriage, which, being found not only irregular but illegal, the synod advised these courts not to confirm. It is earnestly to be wished, that the civil judicature of the country would co-operate with the ecclesiastical, and interpose their legal authority to prevent the too prevailing practice of irregular and clandestine marriages, which being oftentimes founded on rashness, are productive, for the most part, of guilt, strife, and unavailing regret. Sharks. A shark lately got entangled in the nets of one of the boats which were fishing for herrings in the bay of Ayr, and was brought ashore. It weighed 224ib. measured 7 feet 9 inches in length, 2 feet 9 inches between the two points of the tail, and had three rows of teeth.-Another shark, near 8 feet long, and weighing about 300lb. was lately taken in the fishermen's nets at Whitburn, and afterwards brought to Newcastle. When opened, upwards of 130 herrings, and other small fish were found in his stomach. Lyceum at Shields.-Thursday Nov. 5, the new subscription library and lyceum, Howard-street, North Shields, was opened in an appropriate manner, by a concert of military and vocal music. The assemblage of ladie and gentlemen was numerous, many respectable parties attended from South Shields, and the neighbouring villaThe band of the Wiltshire militia performed many eautiful nieces. A ball ensued, in which beauty and elcg nce mixed in the dance, and added to the harmony f the evening. This superstructure, an hour to the improving taste, and the ornament of that town, has been just seventeen months in completing, the foundation stone being laid on the 5th of June, 1806. ges. Improved Shipping.-Earl Stanhope has nearly completed another line of battle ship, on a more improved model than that launched in the basin in Kensington Gardens. It will be shortly launched. New Mint. The new mint, now erecting tpon Little Tower-hill, will when completed, be one of the most extensive and magnificent public edifices in the meaopchs. Among the offices of government, it will be next to Somerset-house. All the shabby buildings between the Minories and the entrance to East Smithfield are to be removed. It will be a fair rival to the Hôtel de la Monnoie, at Paris. Old English Hospitality revived.-On Thursday Nov. 5, the Rt. Hon. Earl Grosvenor, Mayor of Chester, gave one of the most sumptuous and splendid dinners in the town-hall and assembly room, at the Exchange, ever witnessed in that city. On this occasion a temporary floor, about four feet high, was erected in the town-hall, so as to be upon a level with the assembly-room, and the doors of each were taken off, that the company might have a distinct view from one room to the other: the table in the town-hall was laid in the form of a horse shoe, with a table down the centre, on the middle of which, considerably elevated, stood a baron of beef, weighing four cwt. surmounted by the banner of England, and round the edge of the dish, "O! the Roast Beef of Old England, O! the Old English Roast Beef. Nov. 5, 1807.-God Save the King." On the same table was also a fine baron of murton, weighing 81lb. surmounted with his lordship's arms, neatly painted, and round the edge of the dish his lordship's motto, " Nobilitatis virtus non stemma caracter." Likewise the largest sallad we ever beheld, most tastefully decorated, surmounted by the city arms, and round the dish, Prosperity to the Trade of the City of Chester." Besides these, the dinner consisted of every rarity the season could afford. At six o'clock, about 300 of the principal gentry of the county sat down to this magnificent entertainment. The rooms were most tastefully fitted up for this princely banquet and besides a number of chandeliers, they were illuminated with 3000 variegated lamps; but what most attracted the notice of the company in this department was the centre window of the assembly-room, fronting his lordship's seat, on which were displayed the letters G. R. in variegated lamps, which had a most 637] Observanda Interna.-House of Correction.-Blasphemy and Disloyalty. [638 elegant appearance; indeed, the general effect of the whole was grand beyond description. The populace were likewise highly regaled with plenty of beef and ale. Norfolk House of Correction.-At the general quarter session of the peace, held at the Castle of Norwich, July 15, 1807, it appearing that David Raven, keeper of the house of correction at Swaffham, (having, in 1798 received £200 from the county treasurer, to provide stock and materials for the use of the said house of correction) had, by his care and attention, not only considerably increased the value of such stock, but had also in July 1806 repaid £50; and it further appearing, that the said David Raven was now ready to pay back the further sum of £50.-It was ordered, That, as a reward and encouragement for the exemplary management and improvement of money and stock committed to his care, an addition of £10 per annum be made to his salary. Blasphemy and Disloyalty.-We think it our duty to register the following incident, the result of which will shew that our naval officers are not inattentive to the character and conduct of those under their commnand: It may at the same time prove salutary as a warning to the inconsiderate into whose hands it may happen to fall.-On the 27th of October, 1807, a court martial, of which Rear Admiral Sir Isaac Coffin was president, was held at Portsmouth, for the trial of the surgeon of his Majesty's ship Jamaica, for disorderly behaviour, by provoking and insulting speeches and gestures, to the officers, &c. in breach of the articles of war. Among the witnesses called for the defendant, was, the purser of the ship-but his evidence was objected to, on the ground, that he had been heard to blaspheme our Saviour Jesus Christ; to vilify the character of the Virgin Mary, to ridicule the Bible, and say it ought to be burnt by the common hangman; with other grossly atheistical expressions, which decorum forbids us to repeat it will not be wondered at, that the same person should- the king, call him an old fool, &c.-The court resolved, that after proof adduced of the infidelity and disloyalty of the purser, his evidence could not be received; and that the president be requested to represent his behaviour to the lords commissioners of the Admiralty. The president, accordingly, wrote to their lordships; and the purser was dismissed his Majesty's service, with disgrace. King's Accession Anniversary.-The anniversa ry of the King's accession was observed at the parish of Little Bytham, in the county of Lincoln, in a way not very common, but remarkably characteristic of the fervid attachment of the parishioners to our venerable sovereign. The respectable curate of the church had scarcely concluded an animated discourse, referring to the particular service of the day, when the popular hymn of "God save the King" was struck up, and sung by the whole congregation with the liveliest zeal. Victory off Camperdown.-Monday Oct. 11, the anniversary of the day on which the late Lord Duncan gloriously defeated the Dutch fleet off Camperdown, was celebrated in Gordon's Inn, Dundee, by the Camperd own Club, Patrick Scrymjeour, Esq. of Tealine, in the chair, John Job son, Esq. of Rosemount, Croupier. The table was covered with every delicacy of the season, and was decorated in a magnificent style, having in the centre, a representation of Neptune, surronnded with the emblems of naval glory. Under an alcove of laurel, at the head of the room, was a very beautiful representation of a man of war, with a flag from her topmast, bearing the name of the admiral's ship, the Venerable. At the corner of the alcove was a representation of Fame, at the other Britannia; and in the centre, the trophies of war. At the foot of the room was a portrait of his lordship, and in the middle, one of the late Lord Nelson. The whole had a very striking effect. Anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar.-The members of the Nelson Club dined at Mr. Healey's, the hotel, Sheffield, in honour of the glorious memory and actions of that illustrious British sailor, Horatio Nelson. It is a pleasing reflection, that a society is established there, as well for benevolent purposes, as for annually paying a tribute of gratitude to his beloved memory. The following toasts and sentiments, among many others, were enthusiastically drank by the company: "The glorious and immortal memory of the late Lord Nelson."-"The King,' with three times three." The noble and patriotic institution at Lloyd's, and the rest of the patriotic societies in the kingdom."-"The British Fleet, and may the spirit of Nelson never desert it."-"May the enemies of Great Britain never tread its shores."-" Lord Collingwood, and the surviving heroes of the Battle of Trafalgar.""Admiral Gambier, and our brave countrymen off Copenhagen."-" The Wooden Walls of Old England."" Sir Wm. Sidney Smith."-" May the voyage across the Atlantic never make the Inhabitants of America forget they were once the natives of Old England." Trafalgar. The anniversary of the glorious victory of Trafalgar, was commemorated in Bristol, in a manner becoming the character of the country, and the solemnity of the occasion. The morning was ushered in by the ringing of bells; flags were suspended from the different churches and public buildings; and the remembrance of the loss of our immortal hero, appeared rather to consectate than depress the emotions of national pride and patriotism. The Trafalgar Society met at Mr. Reeves's hotel, and many other parties were assembled to pay their tribute of respect to the memory of the achievers of our naval glory. Grand Junction Canal.-At the last half yearly meeting of the proprietors, it appeared that the tonnage has considerably increased within the last six months; and this increase has been found to arise principally upon articles of home consumption, and from a reduction of the rates of tonnage upon particular articles. We learn with pleasure, that the differences lately existing between the contractors for the Woolverton embankment, &c. are likely to be settled before the next meeting. The state of the Sinking Fund gave universal sa tisfaction. It has been increased considerably since the last meeting.-It was intimated to the proprietors, that some prospects were held out of a new company undertaking to complete the Union Canal, which, if executed, will undoubtedly prove of great advantage to the Grand Junction. The proprietors were recommended to take this subject into their consideration; and suggested, that at some future time it might be proper for this company and some others that are interested, to lend assistance to accomplish this end. Abolition of Slave Trade.-At the last annual conference of the methodist preachers, the following resolution passed the meeting. "The conference determines, that none of our preachers employed in the West Indies shall be at liberty to marry any person who will not previously emancipate, in the legal methods, all the slaves, of whom she may be possessed; and if any of our brethren there, already married, have by such marriage, or in any other way, become proprietors of slaves, we require those brethren to take immediate and effectual steps for their emancipation. Ordered, that the secretary of our mission committee in London send a copy of this minute to every preacher in the West Indies, and require a report next year of the manner in which it has been obeyed." Spanish Treasure.-Oct. 26, thirty-seven artillery waggons arrived at the Bank, with upwards of a ton of silver in each, in bars, escorted by two numerous parties of mounted and dismounted light horsemen. This treasure was brought to England by the Diana, from Vera Cruz. Moorish Visit to Hampton Court and Windsor.-Cid El Abas Buhillel, accompanied by his brother Add Elgied, who is sheck or chief of the cavalry, and the Emperor of Morocco's kalif or lieutenant to the caravan from Fez to Mecca, accompanied by a party of gentlemen, lately visited the palace of Hampton Court and Windsor Castle. Their observations on some of the paintings and on the apartments were unique, and extremely interesting. They observed, that the sandals over the thin leather stockings worn by Joseph in the paintings, were exactly similar to those which are now worn by people of rank in Morocco and Fez. The vine at Hampton Court, which produced this year 2245 bunches of grapes, was a curiosity of minute investigation, and their secretary took several notes and observations on it, which are intended to be presented to Muley Soliman, the present Emperor of Morocco, &c. on their return. Mr. James Grey Jackson, professor of Arabic, &c. was one of the party, and conversed with them in the Moorish language, and explained the subjects of the scriptural paintings to them in the Korannic Arabic, at which they expressed much satisfaction, and appeared well acquainted with the passages represented. Windsor Church.-Oct. 29, the parish church of Windsor was opened, after having undergone a thorough repair, with the performance of the sacred oratorio of the Messiah, under the patronage of their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Kent and Cambridge, as well as with the sanction of their Majesties and the Princesses. The Royal Dukes attended with their full suites, satin seats were prepared for them; the principal families in the town and neighbourhood were also present. Lady Cranley, and the two hon. Misses Murray, went in her Majesty's carriage. The Royal Dukes took their seats exactly at twelve o'clock, when, in honour of their presence, the coronation anthem was immediately performed, previous to the commencement of the oratorio. The chorusses were well supported by the gentlemen belonging to St. George's Chapel choir, and her Majesty was graciously pleased to grant permission to her band to perform. The performance was occasioned by the expenses of repairing the church having_far exceeded the estimate, being nearly double. The subscriptions and money received for the tickets, at 10s. 6d. each, amount to near £1000. We understand his Majesty subscribed £100; her Majesty £50; the Royal Dukes £25 each; the Princesses £15 each; Col. Desbrow, and Mr. Ramsbottom, the members for the town, £100 each. Aberdeen University. - The University and King's College, of Aberdeen, have re-elected the Right Hon. Sylvester Douglas, Lord Glenbervie, to be rector of the University for the ensuing year; and have elected Alexander Moir, Esq. of Scotstown; Thomas Buchan, Esq. of Auchmacoy; George Gordon, Esq. of Halhead; and Alexander Leith, Esq. of Freefield, to be assessors during the same period.-The late Mr. Hutton, who kept an academy in Deptford, was educated at King's College, in the University of Aberdeen. To his last Will, in which he left an annuity to his wife, a sum to, his only daughter, Mrs. Mackie (the widow of a naval officer), and sundry legacies, he added a codicil, bequeathing all the remainder (£40,000) of his estate to his executors, Sir Wm. Curtis, Bart. Mr. Chalmer, Mr. Woodroffe, and Mr. Eades, in trust, to establish 48 Burses or Scholarships in the King's College, Old Aberdeen, which shall be assigned to Students, by the principal and regents, or professors of the College. The Comet. The following information with respect to the course of this interesting stranger, lately arrived in our part of the solar system, may not be unacceptable to the young astronomer. It is composed of observations made at the Macfarlane Observatory and elsewhere, and will enable such as have access to a celestial globe, or map of the heavens, to trace the progress of the comet for the last three weeks : Places seen. At Edinburgh, London, Macfarlane Obser Day. R.A. Declin. Oct. 4. 227, 50. N. 6. 229 7 8. 231 9 9. 232 10 13. 234 14 21. 243 20 vatory, Glasgow, City of Glasgow, London, Macfarlane Observatory - 23. Ditto Ditto - 25. The comet was seen at the Macfarlane Observatory, on the 25th, at seven o'clock, p. m. situated to the north-east of the star Beta in the constellation Hercules, distant from that star 2 degrees 15 minutes. Its right ascension 247 degrees 30 minutes. its declination 22 degrees 45 minutes north. The new comet has left the constellation of Hercules, and approximated a small star between the head of Hercules and Serpentarius. The tail does not appear so bright and long as on some preceding evenings, from which circumstance it may be inferred that it has made consie derable distance in its declination, |
