We read that Professor Hind, the celebrated English astronomer, says that on the 30th of Jane, the earth probably passed through the tail of the comet, at a distance of perhaps two thirds of its length from the nucleus. Two days previously, the head of the comet Was in the ecliptic, distant from the earth's orbit only 13,600,000 miles, iand the according to his calculations, would encounter the tail on the day named. A peouliar illumination of the northern sky on the evening of the 30th Jane, supposed to proceed from an auroral glare, wae observed both in England and the United States, sad goes far, in the absence of scientific calculations, to confirm this theory, The result will be looked for with interestraa totting at rest the vulgar fear of a collision between the iarth and a comet, and proving that the latter is composed of gases tar Bore tenuous than our atmosphere.

Ashby's cavalry, nnder his own lead.

CoL Ashby manaKed by his address to set between the enemy and the river1. In the conflict from three to five of the enemy were Blain and a larger number wounded. On our side, Scott Jones, a private of Capt Wm. F. Turner's company, was wounded by a ball in his shoulder, lie was thought to be doing well when heard from.

The enemy succeeded finally in gaining the shelter of a mill, from which CoL Ashby was not in sufficient force to attempt to dis lodge mm. I An English Vtewl The London Morning Postv (the Palmerstoin organ), of Ang. 13, doses an article on the American war in the following language Actual warfare in the United States has now been waged for several months. Every advantage, with thej exception of Gen. Mo CUllan's success in: Western Virginia, has been en the side of tne South.

What has the North gained in exchange A disgraceful defeat, an amount Of taxation whicn is un paralleled in the history of European nations, the utter subversion jot constitutional liberty, and, by means of prohibitory tariffs, the alienation of the sympathies of their best customers and friends, ilt appears, farther, that slavery is not the cause of this lamentable contest.

1 1 SEWABD. mmmmm ftw That "close contriver of all barms," the smooth, rabUe, wily teacher of "the higher law," the expounder of "the irrepressible conflict," Seward, Liucons chief secretary, and the premier of his Administration, has been to Anburn, the place of his home residence. He went, as escort Northwards to the President's wife, and Auburnwards to his own. While there, his loving townsmen called on him for ft speech, and he gratified them. Ton will ask," said he, in the course of bis harangue, when will the war end It may terminate," he went on to reply, "next week, next month, next year.

That depends upon yon. If you are brave, if you are loyal, if you are noble, the war will soon be brought to a successful issue. If yea hare the strength it Is for yo to compel a peace. The United 'States possess of free citizens, the 'disloyal States 8,000,000. If yon are equally as as devoted' ta the cause of your country as they are to their cause, the war must soon terminate; but If tbey are more 'courageous, more active: if they are the strongest then the duration of the war is, in an uncertainty.

It amounts to just this an appeal has been made by the minori ty Xrom the verdict of the majority at the ballot box, to the cannon's mouth if the majority now submit, it is only because they axe lees brave, true and This is all of the Secretary's speech that has been renorted. so far as we hare seen. It is enough for the pnrpose we have in band. 1 The whole course of events which have re sulted in the present state of affairs on this continent has been one of artful and successful deception, and the people of the United States are: its victims. The arch contriver and maehinator of the plot, beyond all dispute, has been William II.

Seward. "A far seeing statesman," as he has been not unaptly de scribed by a venerable and learned prelate of onr Confederacy, he laid his plans with con summate skill, and has pursued them, for twenty years, with nndeviating firmness, through good teport and through evil report. He advanced from point to point with the steady pace of inevitable destiny, drawing his lines closer and cloeer around his fluttering yet unresisting victim. He educated through tne press ana. tnrouga tne puipit, a whole generation, and the two ideas which he has made the ideas of the times are, the irrepressible conflict, nnder demo cratic institutions, between freedom and.

slavery and the utter inability of slavery to maintain itself in the face of freedom. The one idea combined into a great party the fanatic, the laborer, the foreigner, the farmer, the manufacturer the other idea gave confidence and fearlessness to his followers. When this powerful and ever growing host was thoroughly prepared for its work, he decided, after a calm survey of all the chances of the conflict which he was about to inaugurate, that success was inevitable. He per ceived that there was but one movement that could defeat bis plans a dissolution of the Union and, be maintained that to be an impossibility, ne believed that party di visions could keep the SouUi so distractedcould separate her statesmen by such lines of bitterness that no com bined resistance to his sore bat stealthy advances, could ever be brought about. Had all bis followers been as prudent as himself, and had not God been on our side, nothing could have saved us from slow bat inevitable destruction, for it wasnot his purpose to strike any blow mat mignt aiarm or arouse tne South, but to achieve all his purposes through seemingly constitutional movements.

He well knew that the rapid growth of free terri tory, filling up'with a foreign population of the most radical description, would sorely give him what he aimed at, and that gradual changes in the constitution or plausible interpretations of it would cover all his advances with the forms of Law, and render any opposi tion difficult which proceeded beyond the lim its of legislative or judicial resistance, of which he had no fear." The result of the Presidential election, upon which he and the party he Jed, calculated as sure to clinch the rivets of the chain forged for the necks 01 the people of the slaveholding States, defeated the brightest and most con fident of these hopes. The people of the South, thus insolently menaced with the Iobs of their liberties, stood np, in the majesty of their inborn rights, in the panoply of their strong hearts and hands, and in the fear and trust of God, and refused to bend their bodies and their eoula to this bondage. Exercising a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only," they withdrew from the Union which could only be their ruin. To coerce them back thereto then became the settled policy of the Administration, of which the author of this revolution is the leading spirit. The "irrepressible conflict" had not worked exactly as he had intended and predicted.

But it took a new shape, and one he bad not anticipated. It was one, however, with which he had, and has yet, to deal. And it was very nat ural that, on his recent visit to Sweet Auburn, lovelieit village of the plain," his townmen should ask him when he intended the war he had brought about should end. His answer is characteristic. Characteristically cunning, specious, delusive.

He tells his constituency of the North that this war will be brought to a successful issu successful for them, that is if they are brave, if they are loyal, if they are noble. He tells them that twenty millions of them are inarms against eight millions of us. Bat he does not tell them what his official experiences at Wash' ington compel him to admit to bis own conscience, that, whilo his twenty millions are represented in tne field, in this war, by a con' temptibly small proportion of fighting men, the whole military force of our eight millions is there concentrated. He tells them that an appeal has been made by the minority, from the verdict of the majority at the ballot box, to the cannon month. And when he said this, no man better, of all who knew, and knew he told the thing that was not, knew how false was the statement than himself.

No one knows better than Wm. H. Seward that the heart of the people of the United States is not in this war. No one know bet ter than he that the whole united heart 'of all the people of these Confederate States is in this war. We send no skeleton regiments to the seat of it, to be filled up hap hasard.

Our whole confederacy, from the Sabine to the Potomac, swarms with ready, Impatient, self armed, self provided, self sustained troops. to meet the Abolitionist renegade, Fremont, in the West, and the wary and wily McClellan, in the East. They cannot be beaten on the issue of this contest, let it last as long as it may. For it is no mercenary struggle for conquest it is ft righteous battle for defence against an aggressive foe, and it can never be terminated but with the full attainment of this sole and sacred end.
