A New Theory Abont Comets. The comet literature of the period has jast Bow developed a new theory im the speculations Of Prof. (we suppose be is Professor) Lorenzo Rank of Chicago. This Western cometeer broaches the heretical doctrine that comets are really tal *, ami that the apparent tail is produced by the rays of the san passing through the nucleus of the erratic traveler. The come: ying @ ody of atmosphere, a jobe, the rays of the sun, strik- psor ved or reilected,pass Fight on through It. By thefr gone they become hea tion thas under- consequently Produce ight and become visible. In this beated condition th rays leave the comet and Pass off into space, remaining visible so long as they retain the heat, and tz called comet's tail,—the su being convex, which tar focus, thus causing the tails. Prof. (if he és Professor) Kank goes farther. He advances the theory that a comet is the first Grganized state of a planet, that comets do not proceed beyond the sular system; that, whem far away from the sun, they become condensed, and move slowly. Being then small, and situated where the rays of the sun are scattering, an in- sufficient number will pass throngh them for visibility. In this condition they are attracted by the sun, and begin moving towards it. The nearer the comet gets to the sun, the more rays it wili ercouuter; the more rays that pass through it, the more heat and light it will gen- erate; the more heated it becomes, the greater will Le its expansion; the larger it gots, the more rays it will reach, the more brilliant it will be, and the longer and more luminoas will be its so-called tail; at Jast it becomes so in- temsely heated and expanded as to cause & change the law from attraction to repulsion, and thes is thrown off again. In the course of time, this atmospheric globe will form an opaque nucleus, and commence absorbing a portion of the sun’s rays, they be- ipg particles of matter. An increase in the bulk of such nucleus will then be constantly goingen. The original canze of the nacleus may have been that the comet came in contact with a meteor or fragment of a broken-ap planet, the attractive force being sufficient to combine them. It being now that what rays fali upon the nucleus are absorbed, a shade is created opposite it from the sun, thus visibly making the comet a hollow cone, and appa- rently dividing its tail in the manner well de- feribed by Mr. Colbert. The reported comet Of several tails, with one pointing towards the tun, is attributable to retiection,—the nucleus, Or ® portion of it, being of a reflective nature, returning the sun’s rays in a heated. and, there- fore, visible condition, in the direction whence they came, and thas forming the apparent tail in an opposite direction from the others. The curvature of a comet's tail is also only appa- rent, and is owing to the angle it occupies to the eye of the behoide: a3 forming the so- ace of the comet e rays towards @ ‘at fan-shaped From the above it will be noticed that the | most essential point of this theory differen others is, that the beat and light of the experience—: 0 ph directly come from the at are effected by bistays coming in contsct and passing through our atmosphere, and that stmilar eilects are pro- Guced wherever there is atmos; the case with comets. | This will do until the next cometic theory is broached. There does not seem tol good ground for the report that Vice President Wilson con- templates tendering his resignation at an ear @ay on account of his health. If his physical condition prompted him to take such a step, it is held chat he would await, at all events, the re- assembling of Congr Itisknown thet his heaith is no worse than it was last winter, and is feeble condition been @ reason which constrained him wo resign, he would have done #0 before the aljournment of the last session. On the other hand, it i eged, that he 1s im. portuned by those of his friends seeking official he shoald discon- itieal service, he woyer, and that his wonted 1d retarn. It looks now as if cholera is the coming sen. tation, to succeed the bydrophobia di and the comet as a newspaper topic. New York Papers couiain detailed statewente of the case Tt the woman wao aied in Brooklyn, as stated in Tez Stax of yesterday. It appears that she had all the symptoms of genuine Asiatic chol- | era, and that the disease was caused by inh: ing fou! sir from tire water. Almost si was that of Patrick Foley, ae mentioned in the in to-day’s s In bis case the d minated fatally in eight hours, and a strang= coincidence is that | he died in the same house in which the epidemic of 1851 broke out.

The warhke Indians seem to think that Con- | grees in its penny-wise pound-foolish policy of Teducing the army, have put it in their power to enter upon another raid of bloodshed ant depredation such as they carried out in 1863. | ‘Then, aswift punishment was risited upon them by the vigorous hand of Gen. Sheridan, in his sharp and decisive campaign, but now with the depletion of our cavalry, consequent upon the late legislation of Congress, it is doubtral if we ave acufficient ferce to deal with the hostile #avages, and to cover the large extent of coun- try threatened by them. a The sanguimary shirt found in the Nathan | mansion in New York doesn't develop worth a cent in the way of sensation. It proves to be only the same old shirt taken from the body of the murdered Nathan at the inquest, and which was afterwards thrown aside as of no conse- quence in the way of evidence. The New York Peper: that are left in the lurch with unused pictares of the bloody shirt on hand, are nata- rally exasperated at the premature collapse of ‘the sensation. The doctors are stil quarreling about hydro- phobia and the mode of dealing with it. Or. Hammond, of New York, now expresses the doubt if burning or canteriz! wound from the bite of a mad dog will ensure safety. Mr Youatt, be says, who trusted to caustic as a preventive, himself contracted hydrophobia, and killed himself to avoid the painful death before him. Baltimore bas suifered lees than usual this summer from the caterpillar plague, and the Gasette attributes the fact to the English spar- Tows introduced in that city.
