. 2 , The PiUsburgh "Comet," er rather its
talt, shown out beautifully night before last.
It was brighter than it has ever yet been
known; hundreds were intently gazing at it
while it was visible. One of our ex-devils
gratified his curiosity by taking a sight at it
from our office window, which he was en•
abled to do by the aid of a candle. He ap
'"-----Nired very n uch pleased with its appear
ance, and thinks it is no humbug.
• While on the subject of Comets, we give
the following interesting statement from the
Nana. Enquirer:
"Of 504 comets that have entered the so.
far system, 24 have passed between Mer
quay and the Sun, 47 within Venus, 58 be.
trees Venus and the Earth, 73 between
the Earth and Mara, and 302 between Mars
aad the orbit of Jupiter, and no casualty
has occurred to primary or satellite. The
comet of 1770 passed thuough the system
of Jupiter without producing the slightest
effect; still many people are alarmed at the
appearance of these erratic bo,lies, , hese rail
care of the stellar regions, the mystery V
whose uffice and destiny makes their as
tronomy of intense interest.
"With reference to the danger c f a com
et's Striking the earth, we here add, that ihe
comet Entmlie, whose p. riod ig only 1207
days and nearest the earth f all the comets
known, cannot coma in collision short of a
periOn of 219,000,000 of years, which cal
culation is bised on astronomical facts.
LoseNg Baler.—A country woman in
market Wednsday morning,missed several
rolls of butter from her basket; which she
blamed a black man for stealing, who had
bought a pound from her a short time previ—
ous. The only wonder is 0284 there are
not more mat ket robberies than appear
to • committed.
Ring Hunt. —We would flireet the
attention of sportsmen to the notice publish
ed this' morning, of a ring Hunt, which
wilt take plate on the south side of Pee—
bles township, on Tuesday, the 28th inst.
Those who delight in such amusements will
and rare sport on this occasi in, as the "(al
`. ly ito" boys of Squirrel Hill, are the right
sort of fell,,ws to get up such amusement.
Organ Manufacture.
We were yesterday enown an organ

gratified to find that Pittsburgh could
tune olit . such an excellent and skilful
fileal of workmanship. We are informed
..by those competent to judge of such ruLt.
lor‘hat this insturnent is one on which
- the snanufarturer might well stake his rep
(atiis►o, and from the. clear, full, rich tones
which is produces, we have no doubt but
their j adgment is correct.
Mr. Stark is an experienced man in his
basioesa,and having been engaged fur scr
otal years past in the congruction of Piano
Folltel in this city, his reputation as a
skilful and competent manufactnrer, can
be satisfactorily vouche d for.

loss bow t 3 proceed, and my poor wife Sllll continued
to stiffer the most terrible tortures. We therefore sought
other aid In a Botanical doctor, who said when he first
saw it that he could soon cure the sore. and give her
ease at once. To our surprise he g. ye her no relief,
arid acknowledged that it baffled all his skill.
Thus we felt after having tried during one whole year
the experience of two celebrated physicians in yarn, in
absolute despair. My poor wife's constitution rapidly
tailing in the prune of her years "from her continued
sit rnrinx, Under these circumstauces we concluded that
we would try your Universal Vegetable Pills,determined
to ftirly ins , their curative effects. To my wife's great
comfort the first few closet; afforded great relief of the
pain. %VII nlii one week, to the astonishment of our
selves and every one who knew °rifle case, the swelling
and the inflammation began to ceases° that she felt quite
easy, and would sleep comfortably, and, sir, after six
weeks' use she was able to go through the house. and
again attend to the management of her family. which
she had riot done for nearly 14 months. In a little over
two menthe from the time she first commenced the use
of your invaluable Pills, tier ankle was quite sound, and
her health better than It had been in quite a number of
years before. I send you this statement after two years
test of the cure. considering it only an act of justice to
you and the public al large.
We arc, with much gra ilude,
Very respect fully,
