Scientific paper
YOUR engraver has snissed what I thought the most important feature in the drawings which I made of the comet on the 21st inst., viz, the shadow beyond the end of the tail, of the length of 3 or 4 degrees, very obviously darker than the surrounding space, in which it was lost, without demarcation. This was expressed in my sketch by a shade of lamphiack, very slight, to avoid exaggeration, and perhaps just sufficient to escape the engraver's notice. The comet, as seen this morning, is diminished much in sire, and still more in brigbtness, and the present moonlight much impairs its beauty and distinctness.
