On the 12th of May, j,96f, a great'
conflagration, infinitely larger than
thnt of London or Mueeow, was an
nnnuced. To use th etreseiofi oft
distinguished atronosiiV, a wi r!d wss)
found to be on fire. A star, which till
thrii had Rhone meekly and anobtra
sfvsl'y in the Corona Doftalts, sadden
ly bis ted tip into a luminary of the sec
ond magnitude. In the eoumoHttree
days from Its discovery in this ne
tjlia'tnrter, by Mr. Birrnlngham.nt Tnam,
it had declined to the third or cres
fourth order ol brilliancy. In twelve
days, dating from its first apparition in
tho Irish heaven.', it had sunk to the
eighth rank, and il went on waning on
til the SOth ol June, when It cca-od to
be diceruible except through tho mo.
dntm ol the telescope. This was a re
markable, though ec reainly not ml m
pfccedintcd proceeding 6n the part i
a star; but one singular cir'cntnstane
in ill behavior was that, after the la pat
ot nearly two months, It began to blue
up again, though not with equal arder,
and, alter maintaining ill glow lor a
lew weeks and paseing through sundry
uhaies of color, it gradually paled, its
firci and returned to its lurunr insigni
ficance.
Ilow many yean had elapsed sinoe
this awlttl conflagration actually took
place it would be prelumptuoui to
guesi; but it mutt be rcmeaahcrcd that
news Irom tho heavens, thoflsh reaches
us long alter the cveui hast transpired
and that the same ceKstkl courier li
still drouniiiL' the tidinaw at each Mation
it reaches in space, until it sinks ex
hauttcd by the length ot its flight.
Now, whir, this object-was examined
as it was promptly uud ngerly by Pro
IcMor Miller and Mr. Hoggius, they
found to their great- wonder that it
yielded two spectra the one imposed
upon the other, though obv isly lode (
pendent. There-was the prismatic rib
bon crossed by dark lines, which bav
longs to the sun and stars generally,
but third was another In which four
bright Unci tigered; and thus, accord
lug to the caunoni of Interpretation
previously mentipned, iudicaiea mav
some IuiuHiwh yaa or gaeeS" wss also
jiouring out ill light Irom the surface
ol tho orb.
Two of tho lines spelled out hydro
gen in the spectral langtug, What
tho other two signified did not then ap
pear; but, inasmuch as those four
streaks wero brighter than the rest of
the spectrum, tho source from which
they catnu must obviously tjUve hecu
more intensely heatod than the wider
lying parts, or photosphere, front which
the normal stellar liuht proceeded. And
ss tho star hail suddenly flamed up,
was it not a natural supposition that it
had become enwrajped in binning by
ilrocen. wmcu. 111 consequence ei some
groat convulsion, had teen liberated in
prodigious quantities, and then, cow--bluing
with other elements has set thU
hapless world on fire ? In such a fierce
