of November a shower of shooting stars and meteors is promised and if there is no failure to meet the engagement we rimy look for a brilliant clestial spectacle Old Tice who obtains his information chiefly Iron 'Yorks on physical science and astronomical obzervations promisee to sit up all night to watch the expected luminous exhibi tion A great deal might be written on the subject of meteors and their shooting qualities but it will be enough to say that mnch regarding them is purely conjectural It is supposed that a majority of them start from a point far beyond the limits of our atmosphere aud mainly from the constellation Perseus It is supposed tom that nvetters have their origin either in terrestrial vdicentiet or are produced by plats and vapra exhaled by the earth or perhaps are thrown from Luna's volcanoes or again my be of the same nature as the planets and exist independently The latter theory is most in favor though their Lunar origin also has strong etidenke In ItS favor Owieg to their frequent appearance many observations heve been made upon them and their altitude is supposed to vary frotti six to feur hundred miles the greatest number rest-Tearing at a height of about seventy miles Their velocity when on their travels is from sixty to fifteen hundred miles a minute and while some may be seen on every clear night they appear to return at certain periodical epochs when they often descemi literally in ehowers They have been noticed to be most abundant on the 9th and 10th of August the 12th and 13th of November and also numerous in October December Jean Ary April and June They remain visible but a few moments and are often accompanied by a luminous train while explosions are frequently heard along their progress sending fragments to the earth varying in weight trona a few oucces to several hundred nounds and even tons Their component parts are of nineteen or twenty elementary substances but almileable iron and nickel forms the larger portion of their bulk Those who wish to see a grand sight will be likely to have a fine chance for it if they stand watch two nights of next week If the nights are clear and frosty it would be a good

of Pleat ing the jewels of the Countess of Dudley at the Great Western railway station some years ago The crime at the time attracted great attention from the manner in which it was perpetrated and theKreat vain of the booty Before the Magistrate Wright retracted his confession but the police believe that he is guilty and he was teinantleth The jewels werc atin at the Paddington station from Lady Dudley's maid She had them in a valise which was handed from a handsome cab to a guard and set On the pavement oppoeite the door of the hooking office When the maid alighted the valise was gone Advertisements were inserted in the Timex and a few days afterward the rumor ran round town that the diamonds were recovered Indeed the report wore an air ot so much authenticity that the 'Pi Ines and other papeN thought lit to rebuke Lord Dudley for having compounded a felony The Earl paid no attention to their remarks Then people began to say that therehad been no robbery and the Mrs Candors of Msyfair found occasion to indulge in a great deal of tittle-tattle on the subject Finally the story died out Lord Dudley bad made a startling innovation in the manner of London society by printing on the ju-ogrammea of his concerts in Park Lane: "II piu gran otnaggio alla musicale il which people interpreted in more ways than one and took the hint Most ot the lust diamonds were those which the of

memories of two successive epidemics are not calculated to produce in the mind a pleasant picture Tnoughta of deserted homesteads desolated firesides and dead friends will not down and these were not calculated to fascinate the returning refugee and coming to the eity go soon after the ray ages ot the fever had ceased the picture is not that che Tful one that presented itself wheu I list visited Memphis To-day Ws iisarm and pleasaut--ene of the few such thatdiave been seen since the fever ceased and it seems to let in a sunshine soft gladness that has not been wee here ror months Taking ot the pleasant sunshine I rSiStiblect Over the city The streets were crowded with people some of them coming from a train Vial had just arrived Numbers of these were carrying latudies Valises trunks articles tit 'clothing and babies all tiirrying homewards Others were wandering aimlessly around renewing old acquidutances and forming new ones Houses were being scrubbed and scoured brovus were being plied vigorously along paths and pavements and immeuse vans of furniture and household goas were stopping before doors RIVER TRADE REVIVAL Wandering to the river front and crossing the Chickasaw drill-ground I beheld a scene of ftetiTity on the wharf The steamer Katie Hooper had just arrived front St Louis with nearly a hundred refugees whose fare bad teen paid by the earuest efforts of a few Memphis men there They started on the Hard Cash hut that boat grkuudiug at Bradley's on account of shailJw water they were trausferred to the Katie Hooper Two or three other boils had arrived during the day aud these also bad brought their quota paasensers Freight was scattered over the wharf and dozens of wagons and iiirays were engaged in hauling it off On Main street abolit all the business houses have reopened Leading south the cotton warehouses and cotton Pressea cause things to have a business look THE DEATH DEALING BAYOr The Mississippi and Tennessee depot was crowded with about 3t0 "sporads'' awaLing the arrival of their aesent friends In this neighborhood the bayou is clearly seen in its ugliest shape Its frightful meandering looks ominous and the grass-grown course through which it runs is near some of the first cases of fever that appeared this year Judge Ray lived near here his being the third death reported This vicinity Is thus far almost nninhabited bat few of the people living here having returned Especially near the turn-table is this most noticeable Vance street which comparatively escaped the fever for want of material has tilled up more than any other street in the city There are many costly residences on this street and all of them are again occupied THE CITY FILLING UP There is nothing here to remind one of the terrible effects of the epidemic Poplsr street has a deserted appearance but this street received an influx of more than a hundred families to-day Other streets are now filling up with rapidity The deeerted appearance of acme of these streets may be accounted for when the fact is taken into consideration that so far nearly every man living here has returned leaving their families to come later The rush of the women and children has been greater during the past three days than at any time since the epidemic was declared to be at an end There are yet about 10000 to come but these are coming now at the rate of a thousand a day A few are in the mountaina of East Tennessee and will no venture home until the icicles glisten and the ground is frozen hard tzM09 Less received hi October 911 06 Overdrawd Nov i 22143

pounds valued at $1553175201 or nine-tenths of a cent per pound for all products The aggregate value of products for ten years is $15537752010 or very nearly one-half of the total valuation of the country I) the census of 1870 The improved lands of the country which were 1S8000000 acres in 1870 now exceed 200000000 acres and upon this basis the average product of each acre of arable land in cultivation is 43 of a ton of all sorts of agricultural returns the average home value of the ton of products being $17 on the basis of a ten-year valuation By this it appears that the average annual product for ten yeers of improved lands in the United States has been $737 per acre including of course a good deal of produce consumed at home The butter products this year are estimated at $170000000 cheese and milk $130000000 beef and its products $270000000 pork and its products $250000000 cotton $270000000 corn $410000000 wheat $410000000 The increase this year in production of cereals Over the average of the past ten years promises to be about 28 per cent but the aggregate value will not be greater ROSENBERG the editor of Town Talk fell a victim to the real author of the libellous article oa Mrs Cornwabis West much as Beneditti did to Bismarck in the matter of the famous secret treaty The libeller dictated the article to him so that it was in Rosenberg's writing hence

picture of the "lhree Ladies of Wahlergrava" Formerly his prices had been 200 guineaa for a whole length portrait 100 guineas for a half length and 70 guineas for a "kit-cat" It is needless to say that no one would part with the portraits for such a figure now In 1774 for instance Lord Carystort gave Sir Joshua 50 guineas for tlie Girl" which Lord Hertford paid t2205 for at Samuel Rogers' sale in 185(3 The great name of Gains-borough reminds of Mill more conspicuous instances of the same kind The celebrated "Duchess of need not for our present purpose enter into the controversy as to whether it wam really bought by Wynn Ellis for C65 and WW1 resold as every one knows to Messrs Agnew for 10000 guineas After this extraordinary illustration of the fortune found in a work of art which was worth as many pounds as it was orignally sold for pennies others less startling seem to lose something of their point Yet it ought not to go unmentioned here that Greuze's famous "Broken Pitcher" which must now be worth several thousands of pounds was painted by the artist (who by the way died in poverty) for something like sum it realized at the Marquis de Verri's sale in 1875 and that the "Chess Players" which Muller sold for 75 guineas in 1843 (and did not think his labor of only two days ill-requited) fetched thirty years later £4153 Over the water-color drawings' of David Cox even thoe perhaps which were rejected from the Academy comparative fortunes have been lightly won When Mr Vokins gave him C50 for "The Hayfield" in 1850 the great artist was so pleased with what he thought a liberal price that he insisted on presenting a second drawing to the purchaser little dreaming that at Mr Quitter's sale in 1875 there would be a spirited contest as to who should take itas Mr Agnew did in the 950 The profit was not in this case nor is it in many others made by the first purchase for Mr Vokins sold 'The Hayfield" with two other sketches by David Cox for 110 guineas to Mr Cumming who re-sold them to Mr Quitter for 1250 gnineac and thetotal sum realized for the three at his sale was no less than C6047 10s Of Turner's water-colors the same story should be told and should the "Vesuvius Calm" and the "Vesuvius AngrT" for each of which Turner got 15 guineas and which Mr Buskins secured some time ago 550 guineas ever come into the market it will be curious to note how

It would seem from various English works that it occurs about mid-September Spenser alludes to this in his "Faerie Queen" According to the "Clavis Calenderlae" the expression "liar- vest Moon" signified among the old Saxons the Lunar month in which the harvest was usually garnered while the medizeval Hollanders called August the "Harvest Month" the first French Republicans about a century since styled September the "Vintage Month" From this it would seem the "Harvest Moon" or Harvest Month" varied in different climates at different eras and among various peoples The ancient Saxons called September at first the "Barley Month" because that was their most important crop of cereals but subsequently named it "Harvest Month" shifting this title from August to September September was represented as a man bearing the emblems of harvest vintage etc Most authorities unite in considering the moon which reached its full about or prior to the 15th of September as the "real English Harvest Moon-" whereas in this region (Middle United States) it would seem as if the period of the previous moon would be our proper "Harvest Moon" Although there has been so much discussion in regard to this term in the papers it might have been forgotten were it not that an account of the battle of Dunbar which took place on the 12th September New Style 1630 there is a reference to the "Harvest Moon" shining out from amidst the storm clouds to cast a dim light upon the horse-back council of war which arranged the man(euvring that resulted in Cromwell's astonishing victory next morning

rough food as well as horses cattle or the human race To prepare it you should have a cutting box (or hay-cutter) and the greener the hay the better Cut the hay as short as oats or shorter and mix with bran shorts or middlings and feed as other food Hogs soon learn to like it and if soaked in swill or other slop food is highly relished by them In winter use for the hogs the same hay you feed to your horses and you will find that while it saves bran shorts of other food it puts on flesh as rapidly as anything that can be given them The use of hay can be commenced as early as the grass will do to cut and when run through the cutting box can be used to advantage by simply soaking in fresh water until it sours" William Denny to Maria Shute Levi Nelson to Alice HalL Samuel Beard to Margaret

Chirago Times Seriously the managers of the Grant "boom" should be cautioned that they are overdoing the thing It is all very well to give Grant a distingulehed reception Perhaps it is well enough that this reception should be given in charge of a lot of his old party hacks who are sure to pervert it as far as possible to their own benefit but it is certainly going too far to claim for it the character of a "nonpartisan" reception Call it the "boom" and be done with it Advertise it as a grand partisan demonstration inviting to it only such men as are anxious to v'ote for Grant for a third

last night that a very savage and terrific fight occurred some time yesterday between Henry Freund and Patrick Gallagher two workmen in the Missouri Blast Furnace in which Freund's head was split open with a shovel resulting in death at about seven o'clock last evening Gallagher was also badly injured but is now in jail It appears that there has been bad blood between theae men for several months and that it culminated yesterday in a desperate combat betwee! them with shovels used in the furnace The police were not apprised of the affair for several bolas after it occurred and then for some
