Camille Flamarlmon. the dlatla culshe I French astronomer, writes if Halley's comet to The New York ' Herald tt? follows: llalley's comet, he arrival of which 1 was permltlel to wltn< sa by quite a celestial favor on the photographic plates f Hel lelberg University, on September 12. Is advancing rapidly tovard the earth. At that time it was 22 million kilometirs front us; this istance has been reduced to 226 illlon, which is about the distance jf the orbit of Mars to the sun 'he comet then has come about three hunlred million kilometers closer to is In seventy-six days, which gives t an average speed of 3,890,000 cllometero, or very nearly four mil ion kilometers a day. Truly a pretty fair speol! That speed, too, will ?o on Increasing according as the omet draws nearer to the sun. Just now the comet's path la dlected toward both the sun and the earth. After the mid lie of Decern'>er, while still speeding onward toward the bud, it will draw away from our planet. Later on, however, it will again move toward the i earth through the combination of Its elliptic orbit with thV almost Ircular path which the terrestrial globe describes every year around the radiant heat center of the solar system. As a pale nebula. Invisible even by means of the most powerful In- i -trumcnta, perceptible only by the ohotograpblc eye, the comet pass e'. In the ml Idle of September, from the 17th to the 16th magnitude. Rv the mid lie of October It ha I reach ed the 15th, nnd at the beglnnlrg of November the 14th. It has now "eached the 13th magnitude, and Its movements are followed punctually by the powerful Instruments of the tbservatorlea. Even Its spectral tnalysls already has been commenc ed. The comet shouM oil April 20 reach the point of Its nearest aporcach to the sun. Its peiihelion 90.000,000 klloineteis from the silar sphero. Its speed Is then 54,000 meters a second, 5,240 kilometers u minute, or 1 94.4 44 kilometers an hour. Bathing in the eflluvia of the lecfrlc, calorific, luminous radiation of the sun. It becomes lmpreg nated with Its rays, un'ergolng In Its whole being fantastic transformations which len 1 It prodigious glory, develop It by multiplying, ten tltnes. a hundred times, its volume lengthening it to millions and mil lions of kilometem by a kind of phosphorescence which always Is extended away from the sun an l gives rise to the forml lable talis which filled with terror the souls of our mcostors. Thenceforth the wnnlerer's path i taken it away from the ardent cuter to sink into the deserts of < lmmens ty, gradually diminishing In i size, becoming a sort of lnvlslb.e < bubble, an 1 finally to find again the < night of Its aphelion In which for t vears and years it Is lost to the eyci I of astronomers on the earth. It gees away to a dl?tanre of five thou and million kilometers, Into the ultra Neptunian night, In which Its apeed Is gradually decreased to loss than a kilometer per second Die total duration of Its circuit In olityflv? years. After leaving its perihelion ih.? -omet, traveling away from the sun iguln approaches the terrestrial or bit. lip to the time it reaches i s perihelion ?that Is,until April 20 It will t>e a morning star, visible *n the east before the sun rises. It becomes an evening star after th-* perihelion uui will be visible In ibe west after sunset. gulte probably It will bo then very remarkable, as It was In the spring of 1966. at the time of the Conquest of U >gI.;n1, an 1 'n the spr'nj of 1456, it: the period of the wars of the Tucks and the Christians directed by Mfthomef II and Pope Callrtns III This time possibly It Is to gut us a surprise on the after effects of which It Is difficult to theorlre. According to the calculations of several astronomers who are now occupied by the Bpecla! orbit of the comet during its present opposition, tt may pass before the sun about May 18. Mr. Crommelln. In Hngland, and Mr. Soarlo. In America, agree with the calculations of others on this position. At that date the head of the comet will be twenty-six million kilometers away from tis.

"As a member of the commission,' 'e salt, "an 1 a citizen of Vlrzln'n, will do my best to have the statue- 1 >??th of Lee and Washington re | toved at once from Statuary Hall in | he capital and carried to Richmon 1 i l loss congress shall agree to accept I i hem both, not only pleasantly bu* j n the best of spirit.

Rob ?rt E. Lee's statue to stand beside the statue of George Washington, the two being the contribution of virifinia to the Nntlonal Hall of Fame. The incident, says the New , Orleans Daily States, has served to *n It attention to the curious fact ( 'hat the Washlngtons anl the Lees have always been closely associated ( 'n the history of Virginia and of the otintry from the Colonial days down o the bloody War Between the it"trs.
