 THE COMET. 
 
 TIm! phenomena which liavo created most fear and alarm amongst 
 mankind, liave been those of Eclijises aiid Comets; and it was not until 
 the science of Astronomy hail boon cultivated for years, that any 
 rational ideas regarding the latter weiv in-omulgated. 
 
 Dr. Ilalley, alter laborious calculation — even nights, days and years 
 spent in ligures and planetary ohservations — calculated the return of 
 twenty-four Comets, lie discovercl tliat tlie Comet (jf 1(182 was the 
 same that aitpeiireil in lijOy and lool; whote path, in its orbit, is com- 
 pleted in seventy-five or seventy-six years. The Comet of 10(31 was 
 suj>po&cd to be the one of l.)32, completing every journey in 121) years 
 — that the Comet of 1080 was the same one that a.)ipcarcd in 1100, and 
 previous to that period in 531; first noted fuurty-four years before 
 Christ, 
 
 Some Comets, noted in ancient times, have not yet become visilde, 
 inasmuch as their range, or the distxncc they are permitted to soar 
 a))ove the planetary system, may be to within a comparatively shoi't 
 space of the Fixed Stars; so tliat tl>ousands of years niay elapse before 
 some return to their perihelion, or point of a planet's orbit Avlierein it is 
 iieareHt the Sun. 
 
 The great Comet of 1080 was the most magnificent object of its kind 
 seen in modern liuKvs. Its tail was 112 millions of miles in leiigtb, 
 reaching ninety degrees across the heavens. Whon in its perihelion, it 
 came so near the Sun, that, in accordance with Sir Isaac Newton's cal- 
 culations, tlie l)ody of the Comet must have been heated 2000 times 
 bolter than red-hot iron, and could not get cool again in upwards of a 
 ndllion of years! Our readers may congratulate themselves that this 
 Comet of 1080 is not the same witli the one expected to llame in the 
 firmament in 1857 — 8; but our posterity will have to tremble at the 
 approach of the terrific monster in 22651! 
 
 Halley's Comet, which appeared in 1082^ two years after its big 
 brother had winged its way from tlie Sun, returns, by Halley's compu- 
 tation, every seventy-six years. It came as predicted, in 1759 and 1835, 
 and its next advent will be in 1911. That Comet travels a million miles 
 or more beyond the orbit of the planet Neptune. It is, however, a pigmy 
 compared to the one now iipproaching us — the Comet ot 1550, whose 
 unexpected advent struck terror throughout all Europe. 
 
 The best authorities are of opinion that the Comet of )204 and that of 
 1556, which is now approaching, arc identical. It does not appear

 possible, in the present state of cm- Iciio^lcdge, tn propiosticate the pre- 
 cise period of its appoaranco, though iconic, liave .somc'A'hat rashly 
 ventured to fix tho very day! liVe du ii(4 feci disposed to go any fui tiicr 
 in the way of prediction, than by stating tliat tlie coining Comet will 
 most probably \nake its appearance betwPA,'u June, 1807, and August, 
 1858. 
 
 The approachini; Coniot is one of greater size than tl-.e one of 1680— 
 the length of its tail ii I-IO niillioils of inilei?! and its tipccd, near its 
 perihelion, will be some millions of miles in one single hour! 
 I If this Cornet, then, be a solid, dense substance, and it- appear during 
 the approaching summer, going as near the Sun as the Comet of 1680, 
 Ave may expect a vci'y hut season, as certainly so large a body, if tho 
 theory be true that it becomes heated 2,00(J times hotter tiian red-hot 
 iron, cannot come within our view without increasing our temperaturj 
 greatly. 
 
 Tho celebrated M. Arago and other astronomers of France, aver that 
 there are 250,000.000 chances to one, against a collision between the 
 Comet and the earth; and these learned observers of the hetiAcns know 
 far better than those pretended seers, who are always looki)ig out fur 
 signs of horror and dismay.

 Thi-; cultivation of the soil, to},'('thi'r witii the iiniirovement of tfios*,' animals which are 
 ffiven IS as aiilfi in tlio \V(irl<, is a imlile einjiloyiiient, and furnishes the mind withex- 
 Iiaustlcss sutijeels of thouiiht. Theri' are two Systi'vns of tiL-lief that ootaiii crodeniK' — 
 the one eiuliodics the heineii-jrix en rales to make the moral soil, wliieh Sin lias cursed, 
 bring forth nourishment for tlu? more endurinir part of man ; — the other teacl'.es how to 
 j)rovide with the least toil for the wants of the liody — tn clothe the ui(i?t unsi^'htly and 
 barren places with beauty and compel theni tu add to man's comfort and luxury. 
 Thoufrh we are compelled " to eat bri'ad in the sweat of oiu" brow," we aw not obliged 
 to gatiier it by the most luburious process, to eat the earth's f»iost uncultivated iiroducts. 
 or to dwell in the most rude and uneomfortaJjle habitatifnis. It is an erroneous idea 
 that improvements will not ])ay; this, in many instances, ij urged merely as an excuse 
 for carelessness and negligence'. There are jnany instances, wlieve iMipro\'en>ents have 
 been made, with a greater profit on the money so expended, than is realised iii the ordi- 
 nary routine of farming.

 I When sprinp comes every good farmer will have a field or garden or orchard, where 
 ! he can ])rolitably api)ly ail the manure he can save or make during the whiter. Every 
 ] shovelful of manure judiciously applied vt'ill increase tlie amount of his crop. Now is 
 1 the time to think of this, ami to make preparation accordingly. Let those near the sea 
 i shore collect sea-weed — and those who live near saw-mills draw home and jiut under 
 '. cover loads of saw-dust. Tliis may he used to good advantage, in absorbing the urine of 
 ! liorses and cattle, and retaining tlie fertilizing aiiiiiiunia which tiiey contain. Saw -dust 
 I and dry meadow muck well saturated with urine will lie a fcrliliwu- almost equal to 
 I guano. On most '^rnis there is nearly a total loss of the urine of the stock, during the 
 ; time it is kept at ilie barn, and even the other portion of the excrement is often so much 
 i exiiosed that one half its vul. ->, pmhaMy, is lost. It is often washed into the highway, 
 I and is seen in the colouring of the water of l)rooks. It would not, j.robably, be an over 
 ■ estimate of this loss, to say that with many it is more than ec^vial to their amount of 
 I poor and county rates.

 TiiK Plouph anil the Harrow are now in retiuisition. Do you take an Agricultural 
 paper ? No doubt you do ; and you will tliere find sutlicient instruction for every 
 month's business. In so i^niall a compass as these colunius you cannot expect any 
 lengthened details. Our endeavours are mostly to call attention to the duty, and awaken 
 the slHin)>ering energies. If we hai)pen to iittbrd any ])rofit, amusement or entertainment 
 so much the better. lUit some very strangely object to reading for information, as 
 though they were already fully stocked with knowledge. Lawyers, Clergymen and 
 Physicians, say they must read as well as practici^, and why not the fanner .'' Some, 
 treading hi the footsteps of their forefathers, say they want neither bii'.iks ma* papers to 
 instruct them how to iminage the soil. As for chemistry and botany, so much talked 
 about lielieve they have no more to do with farming than spirit-rapping. Thus they 
 talk, and all we can say or do is, let experience settle the matter. However, never 
 be afraid of the word science, for skilful practice is but applied science — ami you all want 
 to be skilful, we trust, in what you do.

 11 herd or tlook, without desreneracy, for se\eral K^iierations. The successful breeding; 
 of animals for particulHr purpos.-s, reipiires a critical judgment and skill, which can 
 only be obtained l)y a long course of the closest observation, and a habit of comi)aring 
 animals, united witli a natural ta-ie f(jr the subject, and a <leternnnatioii to understand 
 Us principles— hence the number of real imi'Kovkiw in this line have been very small.

 TiiK IjitttT jinrt of Aut;u.-t is coiisi lireil the most favourable part of the year for 
 jnakiiiiT i!ii|pr.ivi'nK'iitH on tliu farm. At this season, the earlier erojis have been secured, 
 the euliivation of the late ones has lieeri tiiiislieil, and tlie farmer is only waitinir their 
 maturity. In addition to the eoniparative leisure which is thus atl'orded, there are 
 other eireunistances whiidi render llii.s ii .suiudile pi.-riod lor such operations. The 
 ground is generally drier than at any other lime daring the yi'ar, which permits the 
 lahoiu' of men ami teams on ulaces v.liieli at otle.'r limes are inaccessible from wetness. 
 Tins is i)iir;iculariy fav.juralile to the drainage of bugs and the excaxaliori of peat or 
 nu'.ck for nianun' — the griiwth of biish'vs ami shriilis has ai<o reached that par'icular 
 crisis in which ticy may l)e more easily killed l»y cutting or bruising. The reclaimation 
 of waste hinds ge'iieraliy, but es|)eeially those of a wet and swampy nature, may be pro- 
 secuted uiili aihaiitagc — with tliese drainage is the lirst oliject — as the water is taken 
 away, llie soil will settle, and this settling will facilitate further tjierations.

 ■Without (iRPi:u, .sysTi'.M Avn kcoxomy, no num can lie sncfi's-irul in (.•oniluctinfr tlin 
 husiiii'ss of a farm. If a man ih-zIpcIs tlv\S(' thinii!*, cai-ilal will be »'.\i)(.'n(U'tl without a 
 lirofitalilo rrtuni, atid oven exiicrionce will \k of little avail. That i.ian cannot expct't 
 to pro!»pc,r, who lt>a\i.'s everything.' at otM^ ami ends. Tlie pcreatost dfft'cla in our a<rri- 
 culture at the present time, arise chiefly from carelessne.ss and waste. The disre'^'ard of 
 order, system and economy, is the bane of our farming — it is the occasion of constant 
 and immense loss in many ways. Those farmer? who succeed best in their operations, 
 are noted for their strict adherence to system and order ; and those who set at naught 
 all order and system, are always in a hurry — never know where to lind anything — never 
 have a place for anytliing, except somewiiere on tlie farm — and they never accomplish 
 but little ill comparison to what they might, wi^Yi'; system and order their watchwords. 
 ?lovenline^s does not hel'ing to farming, nicety and ii'Mlni'ss should not be strangers — 
 in short, where there is neither system or rule, the party has no claim to the title of 
 agriculturist.

 There is a preat ailvantajj;u in commencinpr the fattening f>r .inihials early in the fall. 
 Tiieri; are many articles on a farm which may be protita'ily useilatthis season, hut 
 which, from tlieir perishable riuture, would be lost, or gr. ally rlepn eiatcd in vahic, by 
 long keeping. Early api^les, sfiuashes, pn pkiiis, hnnierchantable potatoes, anil 
 utiaound cnrn should be used lirsi. But besides tlie ad\ anta;;i' in saving these kinds of : 
 ood, Iheri' is another important argument in favour 1 if early fattening ; the sann' anioniit 
 and (ptality of food will go further, or will [iroduce a greater imunuit of nn'at, in mihl 
 weather, than in culd — less fond being rei(rircd tft sujiply the waste of the iininiiil 
 system under a mild tcmperattu'e, than under a Inw nnc. For .swt\i; there is a great 
 advantage in cooking bxul, us it has been ascertained tliat pigs futte;; much better on 
 cooked than on raw food.

 5:7 The coliimti of the moon's southin;? cives the time of IukIi water at Parrsboro', 
 Cornwallis, Ilorton, llantsport, Newport, AViiidsor, Truro, kc. 
 
 Preparations must now he made for a lonp and .severe winter. The summer vehicles 
 should he dried, cleaned and stowed away. The fences should he put in order, so that 
 none of tho fields may he exposed to the poachint; of cattle, sheep or hofjs. The farmer 
 shoidd walk ahout daily with a hammer and pocket full of nails, patc^hin^ and repairititr 
 the barns and sheds where they require it. Finish dijri^iufr and storing of roots, and 
 the fall ploughing — one good ploughing of day land in the fall is worth two or three In 
 the spring. Husk the corn — make cider — examine and make cuts for the drainage of j 
 surface water — luiderground drains are preferable to surface cuts. The children shouM 
 l>e kept close at school, and the farmer shoulil never forget that more attention is due 
 from him toward the improvement of his children than to that of the land or stock. 
 Let everyone take in and study a» agricultural periodical, and strive to coud)iue science 
 with practice — practice with science.

 (CT The cnliinu) of the mnon's suntliing pivcs the time of high vater at Parrsboro', 
 CornwalHs, .Huiton, Hantsport, Newport, Windsor, Truro, kc. 
 
 Tub close of thr year is near at hand. It is the practice of mauy, and should be of 
 all, to balance their accounts at the end of the ye:ir, and see how they stand with the 
 world ; whether they have advanced or retreded during tha past year, and whether their 
 expenses hav c been kept strictly within their income or otherwise ; and also to pay off 
 all their small OMi!«tunding bills. TriuUsnien and mechanics expect their bills to be set- 
 tled up to that time, and it is proper they should be, to enable them to pay off their own 
 debts. A small amount of money will pay a very large amount of bills by poi!i^' from 
 hand to hand. Now as th,) stream must commence somewhere, we would sugjrest to 
 those wita arc not obliged tu wait till others pay them before they can pay their ow4i lit- 
 tle debts, to call in their small bills before the first of January, so that with the money 
 thus put in circulation, others can meet their sn)all bills by the first of the yi'ar. 
 Wealthy men know not the trouble they jiut others to, and the real embarrassment thi.'y 
 create by allowing a tradesman and others to call several times fur a small bill. To the 
 first the amount is trifling, but to the latter it u often of importance.

 This Society is cliiefly, but not exclusively, devoted to the Assurance 
 of the Lives of mendjers of the We.sleyan Methodist Societies, and of the 
 iiearers and friends of that connection. Assurances however, have been, 
 and may be effected upon all assurable lives. Notliino: need lie said upon 
 the propriety of i)ersons assuring their lives for the benefit of their fami- 
 lies and friends, when so many proofs are fiirni.shed by the experience of 
 every day life. The advantages of a respeotal)]e Company, with a lai-ge 
 Capital, and dividing handsome profits, are too obvious to need comment.

 Wauuaxtku to cure IJiiM- 
 ncss, Scurf, i^andruff, Itcli- 
 Y; ing, and till disosises of the 
 skin. This Balm }j;ive8 the 
 scalp a new anil healthy 
 action ; restores the coloring 
 matter to the roots of tlie 
 Hair, which passes tliroupjh 
 the hair and gives it a na- 
 tural color without the use 
 of Hair Dye. 
 
 Hundreds of preparations 
 lave been introduced, pre- 
 tending to preserve the Hair and keep it from falling otf, com poed of 
 Oils, Alcohol, and other deleterious materials, and all to no use. Hair 
 Dyes have been introduced that do not give the hair a natural color, 
 besides being troublesome to use. This Balm is not a Dye. Knowing 
 that a preparation was needed to do what was recjuired for the Hai)", 
 the proprietor was induced to experiment until he could obtain an article 
 that would be the exact remedy, and after seven years trial has perfect- 
 ed this Balm. It is sootliing and emollient, allays all irritation of the 
 scalp. It cures Dandruff and Scurf, and when tlie hair has turned gray 
 it will bring it back to its original color, be it black, brown, or aubui'n. 
 It makes the Hair soft and glossy, — prevents it from falling off as will 
 be seen upon iising this Balm for only a few days — life will be given to 
 the roots of the Hair, and growth will soon appeal'. Growth does not 
 take place at the end of the Hair, as will be seen in persons who have 
 their Hair dyed. If you examine gray hair that has been colored for a 
 week, you will find towards the roots, that the hair lias come out gray, 
 hence it is neec -sciry to have the fluid at the rv.>ts of the hair healthy, 
 that the v/hole hair may be a natural color. Ea '.h hair has a root iu the 
 skin, and is of itself a hollow gray tube, through which there is a con- 
 stant circulation of the pigment from the root. When this pigment or 
 coloring matter dies out, it leaves the hair hollow and it becomes gray. 
 To invent a balm that would produce this pigment has become the study 
 of the proprietor. The discovery of the Alpine Hair Balm will do it. 
 It will bring the hair to its natural color by making anew the coloring 
 matter iu the roots of the hair.

 OPINIONS OF TllK TRESS. 
 
 " We notice with miicli iik'.isurc the iii)])eiir!inci^ of a secinnd Edition of TJKi.citKK's 
 Map of Nova-Scotia. This Alaji, orifriiiiihy coinijiled in 1834 by William McKay from 
 artiia! surveys, lias now ln'cii revised, and icorroctions down to the (iresi-'nt year liavo 
 hern carefully iiitr<Mluei'<l. We ohserve that the i)rojected lines of IlaiUvay are 
 marked out, and the routes and stations of the Telegraph Lrne are also indicated. A 
 late Edition of a correct Maji is one of the most ilesirahle possessions. We lu'speak, 
 therefore, a speedy and extensive sale for Belcher's Map of Nova-Scotia. " — I'hovin- 
 ciAL Wehi.eyan. 
 
 " nKi.CHEu's Map ov Nova-Scotia. — Good OITice Maps of our own Province 
 liave, for some years jiast, heeu in great den)and ; hut we have not this want to 
 complain of any lontrer, now that a second Editi<in of IJelclier's excellent Man is in 
 the market. This is a ;jreat imi)rovenient upon the old one. Errors which must 
 have been all but unavoidable at the time the Map of 183-t was jiublished, and which 
 became more ai>parent as the interior of tlie country came to ))e better known ha\ e 
 in this .AJaj) been, for the most part, carefully corrected. Not the least valuahle of 
 the many additions made, is the laying down of the several lines of Railway lately 
 surveyed, and the courses of the Telegraph lines and the marking out of localities 
 where the Telegraph ofHces are situated. The corrections and improvements 
 reflect much credit on the draughtsman, and must have cost him no small amount 
 of labor. The execution of the work is, in the highest degree, suhnirahle." — Acadian 
 Recorder. 
 
 "Belcher's Map of Nova-Scotia — A second edition of which has just been pub- 
 hshed, is a work that should be in every house in the Province. Besides being cor- 
 rect, it is on a much larger scale than any other Map of the same kind, being b feet 
 2 inches by 2 feet ; ami as set forth in the advertisement which ajjpears in another 
 column, it has hc^n revised and corrected, and the new Counties and Townships, 
 formed since its first pulilication, accurately laid down, together with the pro[iosed 
 Railway? through the Province, and the routea and stations of the Telegraph line." 
 — British Colcnist. 
 
 "Belcher's Map of Nova-Scotia. — A copy of the second edition of tliis very 
 superior Map, corrected to October, 1853, has been received. At the present im- 
 portant epoch in our Province, when q\ en the most skeptical cannot fail to l)e con- 
 vinced that this country is turning the corner beyond which lies the fair way of 
 Provincial prosperity, such a reference as the one before us is invaluable. In addi- 
 tion to the boundaries, &c, of the several Counties of Nova-Scotia y)roper, and the 
 routes of the Railway already projected, it includes the Island of Cape Breton and 
 the proposed improvements in that interesting locality, all of which have been 
 comiiiled from the most careful surveys and the latest arrangements. No person in- ; 
 terested in the country who can afford the cost should be without a copy." — Mornksg \

 The SijiJSCRHiRTis Imve great pleasure in being able to announce tliat 
 they have largely increased tlieir laoilities fur 
 
 BOOK AND JOB PRINTING. 
 
 They have aihled extensively to tlieir stock of Book Types — for the pur- 
 pose of enabling them to execute any orders for large editions of 
 
 PAMPHLET WORK. 
 
 Their means for publishing Reports, Catalogues, or other publications 
 re<|uiring type for lists, Tabular Work, &c., are not surpassed ir the 
 Trovinces. They use Adams' Hand Press, as >vcll as his celebrated 
 Steam Power Book Press. 
 
 For All Descriptions of Job Work 
 
 Thcj' take particuar care in selecting tlie latest Styles of Types, Bordcr- 
 ings, and Ornaments, from the J'nglish & Aiiierican P'oundries. 
 
 Bf.AMC Forms, for the Army or Navy — for Baiddng or other Com- 
 panies — for Merchants, Lawyers, and Magistrates, — S.mam, Catai-oguks, 
 HAMiniLr.s, BiTj, Hkadincs TiAUELS, (fcc. are very rapidly and beauti- 
 fully thrown otf by these presses. To give Bill Heads and other forms 
 a neat appearance, they have in use one of IlATUiiWAY's lluLixu
