MIAN Lecttaxs —Prof. Peirce deliv- ered his second lecture on Comets at the Smith- sonian, last evening, before a large audience. Having in a previous lecture treated of the nebula or tailof the Comet, the main subject on this oc- casion was the nucleus or head of this celestial voyager. It had been held by some, that the nu- cleus was composed of the same nebulous sub- stance es the tail, only in a state of much greater condensation. This theory the lecturer considered, itself, very nebulous; and argued mathematically to show that a nucleus bearing the computed pro- Portion of only two hundred miles in diameter to an atmosphere or nebula of twenty thousand miles, must be at least of the consistency of a metallic substance to support it. His theory—founded on the best telescopic observations and close mathe- matical computations of the known Comets—was, that they consist of a nucleus of some metallic substance, ranging from one hundred to two hun- dred miles in diameter; and that on coming into the solar system, the unusual heat causes an exha- ee 4 bd gst oe lly from the solar of the nucleus, which falls be! a the tail of the full-fledged Comet. ae acres Braxs* Birntu-Day.—Yesterday being the birth y of the Poet.

He instanced i mind tn his several poems; and spoke F rity of his style in his love songs. and. he kuew. be had excelled all writers of amatory verses. He wrete from the heart, and his strong discriminating mind enabled him to avoid the errors which many other poets had committed His piety was shown in his “Cotter’s Saturday Night; and the sympathy for the miseries of bis flow man, in his --Man was made to mourn.”?
