So Mr. Proctor Says. WILL THE EARTH BE SCORCHED ?—MR. PROCTOR THINKS NOT—BUT THE COMET WILL COME TO GRIEF. Mr. Richard Proctor, the renowned astrono- mer, writes to the New \ork Herald as follows: At last we seem likely to learn what will hap- pen to the solar system when a large comet falls into the sun. There is scarcely room for any doubt that astronomers were right in regarding the comet of 1880 asareturn of the comet of 1843, ¢ome back long before its proper time. This was doubted by many, some supposing that either the comet of 1830 was another object traveling in nearly the same orbit, or else that the two bodies were associated together some- what like the clusters of meteors forming a me- teor ring, which lie irregutarly strewn along the ring, and so pass any given point of their com- mon orbit at irregular intervals of time. But now that within two years and eight months (more exactly, the interval is from January 27, 1880, to September 17, 1882.) another splendid comet has been seen traveling alons the same track, a comet full-formed, lus- nouzh to be seen in full daylight, and like the comets of 1843, 1880, with a long and well-shaped tail—the theory that these | three are different comets traveling in the same track can no longer be accepted as a probable one. But if one and the same comet has been seen on all three occasions, and if those astron- omers are right who consider the comet of 1843 to be the same as the comet of 166 articular comet 1s _approach- ing the end of its career with singu- lar rapid From an interval of 175 years to one of 37 years, then to an interval of less than” 32’ months, is a very startling rate of change. _Encke's comet had seemed to teil us very impressively of the gradual approach toward the sun which comets may undergo: but astronomers only recognize in its case a diminution of the period of rev lution by a few hours in each circuit. Here, however, isa comet which after 1963 had had a period fifty-tw as long as the period of Encl oaly eleven times as long. and after 1882 reduced to four-fifths of the period of this, which had been the comet of shortest known period! — What the time of cir- culation will now be, remains to be seen. For own part I should say it would be less than a ions which I have made son to believe that the comet will be s than half a year, perhaps before Christmas, which ought to be interesting news pyramid prophecy. Albeit, it mnst be understood that in suchcasesasthese nothing like exact accuracy can be attained. | When astronomers said in 1880 that the comet ofthat year might be back ina much shorter time than thirty-seven years—“for instance, in ft (one of them satd)—many si that number, fifteen years, in- dicated the result of careful calculation. But, asa matter of fact, itis absolutely impossible to deal with such cases as these by any process of calculation. All wecan say is that at each return of the comet to the immediate neig! borhood of the sun itis strongly retarded, w apparently iner wz effect at each return. WHAT WILL HAPPEN? But now the important question arises, what will happen as the period grows shorter and shorter? Suppose the comet were to return to the sun nine months, then in three, then in one, then ina fortnight, then ina week, three days, one day, half a day—all these put together make up less than fourteen months. Even if we each period to be half the preceding, we have seen the rate of reduction has been much more rapid than this, two years nd eight months would see the end of all these circlings. in the reduetion of the comets period to some three aid a-half hours. which would be its time of moving in a circle at that di nee (five hundred thousand miles), which seen now to be its distance from the sun’s center when in perihelion. But after this the comet's distance would soon be notably reduced. Since at every passage through the ar corona, or meteor streams, or whatever ar surroundings actuailv check the prozre comet, it meets with resistance larzel ] it follow y that so soon as to balance the attraction and prevent approach, the comet will begin to be drawn in toward the sun's surface. ‘This process, though caused by a reduction of velocity, will lead—paradoxical though it may seem—to an increase of velocity. This increase is in reality due to the indrawing (or technically the centripetal) action of the sun. Precisely as Venus travels moreswiftly than the earth, and Mercury more swiftly than Venus, while Vulcan, if there is such a planet, travelsstill | more quickly than Mercury, so our comet, the hearer it draws to the sun, because of frictional retardation in his atmosphere, will travel more and more swiftly because of the sun’s attractive action. Supposing the sun’s surface to be the place where the comet would finally come to rest the velocity with which the comet's sub- stance would be moving when it actually came into collision with the surface would be about two hundred and sixty miles per second. Mul- titudiaous meteoric masses, transformed to vapor by solar heat and rushing round at this tremendous velocity, before either suddenly or gradually they were reduced to rest upon that glowing surtace, might be expected to produce aconsiderable effect upon our sun. Even if it is not there that the comet would finally be ab- sorbed, but below the visible surface (which, after ail, is but one of many solar surfaces) the effect would only be increased by delay; for the lower the layer which the comet eventually reached the greater would be the comet's veloc- ity, before it was brought to rest. WILL THE SOLAR SYSTEM SUFFER? Is there, then, danger that the solar system will suffer, after the manner suggested by Sir Isaac Newton in his remarks to Conduitt? peaking of the comet of 1680, which did not approach the sun nearly so closely as the comet of last September, he said it might have fve or six revolutions more before it fell into the sun; but, whenever it did, it would so much increase his heat that this earth would be burnt up, and no animals in it could live.” Newton thouzht indeed (of which I was not aware when Texpressed a similar view about the new star In the northern crown) that the so-called new stars “seen by Hipparchus, Tycho Brahe and Kepler's disciples,” were ‘tof this kind, for he e account for an extraordi- ight, as these were” (the grammar is Mr. Conduitt’s) “appearing all at once among the fixed stars (all which he took to be suns enlight- | ening the other planets as our sun does ours)as big as Mereury or Venus seems to us, and grad- ually diminishing for sixteen mgnths and then sinking into nothing.” Sir Isaac manifestly considered, and with reason, that thouzh our sun mizht only be for a short time raised to an intenser heats. sixteen months, or even as inany days, would do the earth’s business very effect- ually. PROBABLY NOT. But I think we may find comfort in what has already happened. In 1668 the comet lost a large part of its velocity through frictional re- istance. yet the Inhabitants of the earth were nuch the worse for the disturbance thus ioned. A similar change took place in 1843, again in 1880, and yet again last September. ‘This loss of motion is a change of precisely the kind w mischief this comet can produce absorption of the comet were likely mischievous we should certain, experienced some effect in and again last September. But I have ot heard that the average temperature f the earth on either occasion was yreater than usual. In January. 1880, we had a very bitter winter In England, and the winter in the northern hemisphere was, on the whole, about as cold as usual. In the southern hem- isphere, where it was midsummer at the time of the comet's peritelion passage, they did not have any very remarkable heat. ’ Last Septem- ber was warm in Great Britain and rather ex- ceptionably warm in parts of the states, but in equatorial regions. where the most ‘serious effects would have been produced had the sup- ply of solar heat been increased, there was no observable change. That the comet's entire mass {s not very great is clear from the circumstance that not the slightest observable change has been produced in the motion of any planet on any one of the occasions when this comet has been for a while close alongside the sun, adding the whole of its If the final to be very T think, haye anuary, | 1880, A Fasmioy Writer in the New York Post > says that kiltings, flouncings and panes, paniers laid in soft folds over the hips and carried back _ to form the full drapery of the tournure, | wrinkled apron tunics, Grecian drapery, fully trimmed plastron Poe Agee high standing fralses, guimpes, 8 puff tich P esand high colors, are each ‘and. all fash. still to be followed the on-coming winter. ¢ one can turn away ee Cur 7 geal aes gown devoid of a single oie trimming or adornment of any kind Whatever.
