On thin hypothesis we nay account for the phenomena of falling stars, and particularly of those which bare lately occurred. iSuppoae a aalellite circumstanced in the manner last described, surrounded by an inflammable atmosphere, ami saving rocks and stones loosely scattered over it m.ka a near approach to the eanh the consequence would be, that the attraction of the earth would sweep from the equatorial region of the satellite much of what was not firmly attached to it, and draw it process, every rock and stone thus detached from the satellite, would carry wilh it a proportionable part of the imflammable atmosphere of the bode from winch was separated: for the aiiraction to the centre of that body beiugt.early neutralized by the conlrifuga' mwkA I on us surface not bemg si milarly aifected, but each retaining unimpaired Its proper ceniri attraction, it would, by that force, attract to it aelffrom the aimosere in wheh it was atmosnliere of iis own, greater than it woutd under dissi milar circumstances, and which wouia accompany its aiiraction to the earth. a Thee parcel, then, en eloped by inflammable gasses, nur aimosDlieru witii a bod differently on nicctnig charged with electricity, a discharge of that element from the one to the other must necessarily ensue, from which i.niimn of the atmosphere of the failim; rocks and stoiH a will follow, and thus produce ihe phenomena of oiu'ag tare.

Tbe same cause which produces trie explosions of pr.mary meteors, may produce explosions in these also, as it was lately seen, if the accounts from scv ral places be correct. Some, at least, of the fragments of stones, especially small, in their passage through our atmosphere, way, as tneir composition metallic, Be come consumed, or entirely disintegrated. An event at last described, requiring a concurrence of circumstances, rarely to be expected, would produce an appearance like a shower of stars But ordina rily it may be that, 'hen a satellite puses through its pedigree a few of the materials, on its surface will be detached from it, by the causes already mentioned, as rcncrailv operative, and become the shooting sai we occasionally see. It is uot true as some, in thwarting this theory, have asserted, that tbey may be seen on ev enr nuthl. Tbev are observed at distant inter vals, and then often a number of them succeeding each other.

It would add to the interest of meteorological observations if more attention were paid to the common shooting stars, and the time and manner of their appearance recorded. Reasoning on this subjec' might then oe founded on authenticated facts, and not on such bare, unsupported assertions as have been useJ in discussions relating to these The mtlammabiliiv of metals is beautifully shown by filing iron orer a lighted lamp or Each particle ol the fiuiigs will burn with a blazo of brilliant while.

Some supposed them to be bodies of inflammable exhalations from the earth, ignited in some unaccountable manner, witlmul considering tiat such inflamed bodies would naturally ascend, like a balloon, and not descend as meteors do. Some have sup Htsed that they were exploded from the moon, without adverting to the fact that the surface of the earth moves from west to eat, at the rate of about one thousand miles in an hour, and therefore that a body coming in a straight hoe from the meoa to the earth must, at its approach to us, have an apparent motion, althe same rale, Irom east to west whereas the courses ot meteors are apparently in arbitrary directions, and have not a velocity to be compared wi ibis And others again have supposed that they were projections from volcanoes, witbout con sidering mat these never threw any tning irom went oe vond the distance of a few miles whereas meteors Ira verse the glooe over every region, thousand of miles from where volcanoes exist.

S. D. Loboevitv. Longevity being a subject of interest to most men, we nave taken considerable pains lo collect a variety of curious but well attested anecdotes and philo sophical speculations in relation to it, which we shall pub lish in brief umbers as occasion mar invite. Five persons have died in New Hampshire over 110 Tears old.

The oldest of them was Zaccheus Lovell (120), father of John Lovell, distinguished at Ihe "fight" in Frveburg, Me. tie was an E.o lishinan, and served as ensign Cromwell's army, and afterwards became one of the first settlers of Dunstable. Wm. Perkins (116) was an Englishman also, and was in the civil war. A son of his died aged 80, and a great grand son at Robert Mack I in (115) who lived in Portsmouth, was a great pedestrian.

Adams, in his Annals," says, he bought his flour in Boston, and always travelled thiiheron foot, 66 miles, and performed the journey a day. He wti 80 rears old when be performed this fete for the last time. It was at that time a very long day's journey tor a borne. Welch, who died at 11S, in Bow, N. k.j A ia ew years as did also his mo ther.

One of his brotiw on ScobJ Londonderry', at 110, wasaalrish when about 100. he travelled to Portsmouth, 35 miles, on foot, in a day. John Summers, who died at 116m Kentucky, 10 rears ago, walked five miles for the purpose of voting, four years before his death. He bad 19 children, and over 300 descendants. It is slated tnat Ephraim Pratt, ho died at 1 17 in 1804, in Shutesbury, Mas.

was married at tweutv one, and had 1500 descenJsnu before his cease. He had four sons hying in 1801, of whom the eldest was 90, and the youngest 82. The Fayette (Miss.) Monitor, of Nov. SS, contains long article in explanation of the recent conflicts between the and uie citizens ot jacason county, i Mormons, about seventy in number, killed two and wounded several others of a party of seventeen citizens. who visited their settlement for the purpose of making some arrangement in relation to ineir covenant to tear the county.

After the first tire, which was inefiectua Mr. Brazeale ascended an eminence, and proclaimed peace with these words in his mouth, he was shot The conflict then became seneral, and the citizens were driven otf. Preparations were then made ey both parties lor an exterminating conflict, which was averted by aa order from the Lieut. Governor, which induced the Mormons to ground their arms and leave the county but they have subsequently demanded to be reinstated in their possessions at the "New Jerusalem." The Governor has ordered a portion of Ihe militia to be in readiness to meet any emergency. 1 he party question, was induced to visit the settlement by the proceedings of a mob, about two weeks before, which were very general condemned Dy the citizens of Jack son county.

The editor of the Monitor repels the accusation that the people ot Jackson are inclined to turbulence. explains the riotous proceeding which took place there ab mi; two years since, by saving that a large portion of the seminary laixls were originally located in their county. They settled upon and improved them. When tbey were offered for sale, at a minimum of two dollars per acre, they confined a speculator, and prevented him from possessing nunseu oi the truits or tneir moot, ine whole matter was represented to the legislature, and the legislature confirmed ine sate Stiaighlway came the Mormons. In their doctrine.

they claimed as an inheritance the whole of Jackson county. By fraudulent and false statements, they were gathering together the scum of the earth were offering inducements to the free negroes, everywhere, to come up and join them, riiat the people, among whom they ha I settled, should feet disposed lo rid themselves ot such a pest, we think is extremely natural and it is doubtful whether they would have tared better any other county, Botton Momini Poet. Tbe Report of Mr. Taney on tbe re moral of the de posilcs, nil more than eight columns or the Globe. It is able, conclusive and incontrovertible.

No intelligent and kaneti citizen, can read this report, without a con viction, both ot the necessity or ine removal or the depositee, and the utter profligacy of the Bank. Notwithstanding the extreme length of this report, we hare determined to copy it entire. Such is the number of reports and public documents, that are crowding upon us alibis time, it will be in vain for us to attempt lo find room for all we can only give extracts of the most i capon ant part, from several of them. Mr. Taney proves conclusively, separate tvom the misconduct of the Bank, that there were other rearons, which rendered the removal of the deposites, absoisnVly necessary.

The principal of which, is the limited lime before the expiration of the charter, and tbe necessity of avoiding the consequences of tbe sudden removal of so large amount of aapital. Tbe misconduct and corrupt management of tbe Bank is Set torlh in the plainest manner. lathe short space of sixteen months previous to Ihe lass Presidential election, the loans were increased snore than being an extension of more than 6 per cent on tbe previous loans. At this very time, the Bank was broaching the subject of a new charter lo Congress, i the grounds that it was necessary, that ihe question should be determined thus early, in order that the inetuuuon wi.hi have time lo bring its immense business to a close. Mr.

Taney shows conclusively that the Bank for several months has been attempting to create a pre. sure mine money market, and which government could only counteract effoctualty removal of the depoi es. Dunng the month, of Angus, September lV the Bank curtailed ita discounts, more than 84 000 000 while Ihe deposites in the Bank during TsaW'lim. wr. increased more than i.oooonr, xu of col.ec.ed 'I'hn or nseu sava lit.

The rv as of opinion, that bad this system of oppression been coalinueJ two months longer, as it was the evident poll cv of ihe Bank, it would have put an end lo trade, and produced general bankruptcy By tbe first of October lb pressure, was so intense in tbe principal commercial cities, that there was no alternative on the part of gov ernment, except to piace ine depositesas iney wers col lected the slate oanss, ano enable them, lo discount from this capital.

There we have the secret of the pressure in the money marke', of which we have heard so Biuchia Philadelphia, and elsewhere, as well as the temporary relief afforded by the removal of the deposites. If any of our readers have any doubts, relative lo the policy pursued by Ihe United States Bank, or the expedia im ofmntins a new chirtrr. we merely ask them to gire this report aa attentive perusal. IMawert THE EVENING POST. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 18.

We have no eastern mil this morning, mud no southern mail south of Philadelphia. The Philadelphia Sentinel, a paper which is supposed to speak the opinions of a numerous arty in the state of Pennsylvania, and which hitherto, though it has by no means espoused tbe cause of the Bank has not takes an active part against it, speaks of the late memorial of the Government Di rectors in the most explicit and decided terms. We copy tbe article below, merely remarking that may be regarded as a pretty certain indication of the views of those who are sometimes called the Wolf party in Pennsylvania, and by whom Mr. McKean has recently been elected to the Senate. There is man in his senses wlw cannot see that the to kens of public odium towards the bank are tnulti' plying every day.

It has lost ground by its own de fence in the report of the majority of tbe Directors, it has lost ground by the memorial of the government directors, and it re juires no spirit" of prophecy to predict that when it finishes its career it will have become one of the most unpopular and generally detested institutions ever known in this country. In directly appealing to the highest representative tribunal, the Government directors manifest a conscious ness in the strength and ininonance of their caste, and in the unassailable purity of their own conduct and mo tives, l'ney nave frankly gone at once, paltry by play, to the scene of trial where all that they allege, all that they pretend, and all that they prove, may be seen and heard by the whole country and by tbe whole country be appreciated and Judged according to Tk. ih.nr. and nractice of Our institu tion fumi.1, ni fur trial, no surer guaranty for ultimate justice and the spirit with which these gentlemen hare entered the lists and thrown their gauntlet at the majority board by whom a recent manifesto was concocted and eircuiaieo, csswn inspire confidence in their integrity and intentions. Bo Uie issue of this solemn invocation and aopeal what it may, such is the manly and undisguised course which democracy will always recommend and sanction.

The readiness wilh which the Government Directors avow themselves prepared and as lo all controverted facts, to abide by the bonks of the Bauk itself and the sererest scrutiny of iraoartial examiners, and, as lo ail disputed deductions, to submit them to Ihe ordeal of practical common sense, gires 10 their memorial wniie a full investigation and dereleperocnt are avoided by the majority of the Board a character absolutely victorious ana unanswerable. Macbiavelian policy cannot long elude the plain and direct modes to which our people re sort in order to administer justice: round asiierskm, contemptuous evasion, sly sophistry, and varnished concealment, are but temporary in their success. Truth is a divinity whose power must filially prevail and the? who resolutely invite the opening of the portals of her temple are already recognized as her vo sries, against uiose who stand aloof atxl snrtna irom ine anuctpaieu Itpht. In renellinc the attacks made upon them in the mani festo, the Government Directors have really made out a vindicat. on to us unexpectedly forcible and conclusive, This is the best notice thev could take of the defama tion to which that paper had subjected them.

Tbe jmt oai triumph is complete. But the point on which our readers and the people at large must feel more deeply lo terested in the a'le ed preconcerted system, earned into execution at the Board, bv which their utter extinction. as public officers and representative agents, was effected Dy the Yesident oi Uie Bank and nis assenting associates. To this point we are disposed to call the ttartica ler attention of republicans. If the Government and Peo file of this country, in the administration of its high pubic concerns, cannot command respect and proper attention for their representatives and agents, they had better nave none.

If private wealth and personal influence are to be allowed lo overawe and subdue oCcial action, the laws mttst cease to be executed, and our system cease to oe considered ine theory of the uo. vernmen: Directors as to the nature ot their trust and duties is indisputably correct, and we cannot refrain from expressing our astonishment that the few intelligent gentlemen who gnided the majority should even have countenanced for an icsiant an opposite view. But we are going into more" detail than we contemplated. Let this impressive document, referred to the rharse of the Committee of Wavs and Means in the House of Representatives by the democratic majority of 133 to So, be calmly considered by the community at large lei our state legislatures now in. session weigh its disclosures, and act as becotues the near guardians of popular neht andsecurit and Jet tbe democratic party of Pennsylvania determine how far and in what manner the new and agitating crisis calls for a vigorous and united movement.

The times are wild contention like a horse 'Full of high feeding madly liitli broke loose, And bears down all before. hnn. Let os encounter the emersency with as little delay as possible, and that state oi doubt and uncertainty which is always fertile of injury and loss. A vast amount of damage was done by the gale of yesterday, which blowing directly down the sound, and the East River, accumulated the water at high tide in the bay and caused it to encroach upon the stj iirtflsidw er part of The clly. lars and kitchens were filled, the fires put out in the stores in the lower stories of tbe buildings, bogs beads of sugar were spoiled, barrels of flour, piles of mahogany, and vast quantities of lumber were floated away.

The damage was not confined to this city. Brooklyn came in for its share, and at Hoboken the wharf erected for the ferry lies almost in ruins, the meadows are covered with a sheet of water, and Hoboken point is an island. The Hudson is probably opened by this storm to Albany. It was raining at that place on Monday morning. The Journal of Commerce gives the following ac count of the gale and the damage occasioned it On Monday morning there was alight breeze from the N.

N. E. hauling gradually to the JN.E. At sunset it had increased to a stiff blow, accompanied with some ram. Tbe nicht, particularly the latter part, was a succession of iolent gaies.

The roar of the wind, render ed it impossib'e for any but good sleepers to repose iu quietness. The blow continued, rather increasing than otherwise, till I o'clock yesterday, when it reached its height. This unfortunately was the time of full lide; and the consequence was, sucn a swell ot waters as nas not been known bere for thirty years at least. Indeed we may say that from the time of high water on Monday night at midnight, until the time we spoke of, the tide did not once subside below the usual high water mark. This will affurd some idea of the violence of the mpest.

The tide of yesterday, coming in upon the lop of this unnatural swell, rose rapidly over the wharves, then invaded the adjacent streets and cellars, fill at 1 o'clock it had risen full six feet above the level of common tides, and 6 inches higher than has Been knswn, as we said before, for tbe last SO years. Thia is ascertained from the fact that stores which have been standing this length of time, and were never before invaded by water, had their floors now covered to the depth of six inches. The whole of South street, Burling Slip, Coffee House Slip, and all similar places, as far up as Front in some instances to Water and Pearl streets, together with portions of the streets last mentioned were under boats were busily engaged in ferrying passengers to and fro at 6 cents each. Indeed this was tbe only way in which hundreds of met chants could get to their stores, or front them without.waidinff. Most of the cellars in South, front, and Water streets, and the low part of Pearl street, as well as along the slips, were filled with water.

The damage in property, in the aggregate, must be great and the more so, as the inundation waa wholly unexpected. We noticed two or three paint cellars which were in a sad condition paints, oil snd water being mixed in very undesirable proportions. Several of the piers were raised irom their natural po sition, and some of them are a good deal injured. JUast and least, rats by hundred were forced out irom their retreats, and being unaccustomed to the watery element, became the easv Drey of boys and docs. Between 1 and 3 o'clock the wind gradually subsided, and baa since been moderate.

We subjoin a li st of accidents which have occured to the sbiDDine. The British brig Two Sisters, lying at pier 10, East River, parted her fastenings and drifted upon the Danish brut Sophia and kulwa. he stern ol tbe 1 S. was stove in, and the S. and E's fasts were parted, and she drilled upon the Boston packet sch.

A schooner and two sloops are sunk, loot oi Delancy street. The British brig Mulvma, at anchor in the North Ri ver, parted her cables and went ashore on the flats near t. t. I a rut Ellis' Island A schooner is ashore between Ellis' Island and Powles Hook. Sloop Irene, which was ashore at Hurl Gate, drifted off aad came down the Eaat River with the tide, bottom upwards.

Tbe copper roof of tbe budding now occupied as the Custom House, being of the extent of three large stores, was raised from its position, and thrown out of place; bat no part of it being actually carried awav. it was made fast by tbe exertions of a number of men, and can probe bly be restored.

The slate roof of a new brick store in Cedar street was badly riddled, aad we presume many others have sufler oa more or less in ine same way. A chimney on house No. 151 William street, fell a gaiast a cbiinnsy of house No. 153. and both tumbled to gether upon tbe root, and then into the street.

No son was miured. A small two story brick front bouse in Pike near Lorn hardy street, bad the roof blown oil.

We leant, says the New Orleans Bulletin, by the steamer Boon lick, Captain Siaaonos, that the. steamboat William Parson, collapsed one of er flues below Vicks burg, and scalded several of the firemen badly, but fortu' aately no lives were lost. At a public sale this morning in Nassau street, a young man haw bis pocket book, containing five dollars abstracted firoraar inner coat pocket by one of the light fingured gentry who walcb the opportunity of a crowd to exercise their vocation. It was by mere chance that tbe owner of ihe pocket book had not attended the sals a quarter ofan hour earlier, when it contained six thousand dollars, which in that case would have fallen in the hands of the thief.

The weather in Lower Canada tar north as Clue bee, had continued unusually mild until the evening of the eighth instant, (Sunday before last,) when a violent north east snow storm set in, and the roads ware ob structed by" high drifts. Tbe Quebec Gazette of the 9th says, The navigation of the Si.

The steamboat Bolivar came up this forenoon from Staten Island. Captain Braisted informs us that the gale was very severe at Staten Island. The steamboat Bolivar has received considerable damage. She parted her fasts and drifted out of the Basin.

The captain bad to let go both anchors to stop her from drifting upon the Bank. The schr. Jackson and a small sloop drifted up on the dock, considerably damaged. AH the lighters are mor' er less damaged. Ths steamboat wharf and Planter's Hotel wharf are all in rains.

It is very difficult passengers. Tbe Public Store wharf, the Quar antine wharf, and all the wharves along the shore are more or less injured.
