It has never failed to effeoi a cure, giving tone and strength to the system dcbUitaied by Wlien one hundred years ago this morning the Iteeple New England roused themselves from slumber and went about their daily avocations, they little dreamed that they were witnessing the advent of a day that was to be marked for all future, not exactly with a while sione, but rather with a black one. Before the day bad passed, however, all felt impressed with the startling experiences they had passed tbrongh.

and entertained very grave doubts as to whether there would ever be much ot a lutare ill which this strange day could be recalieil. The spring of 1780 had not been espeoiallv forward. In May farmers were just beginning to pre- imie for planting. Vegetation had jcsi started but the snow yet rested upon the ground in many places in great drifts. For some four or five days previous to the nineteenth instant, the atmosphere had been cloee and full of and Tapon Too sun by day and the moon by night appwred very red, anrt lost much of their usual brightness and clearness, the nbscuraiion palpably increasing near the horizon.

The wind was variable, cuicfly from the southwest and northeast, and the tbermoineier rangenfromlO deg. to 65 the barometer was high andine air fair and cooL All objects were seen in a dull hazy light. On the Wednesday preceding the notable dav, Friday, a man planting corn on a meadow near Boston, could not see onei ndof the row to tbe other, on account of the with nothing particular to indi cate that it was lo be different from its soisof thewteknow nearly past. But those who arose early found that the day failed to gro Ughi as the hours passed. The morning was cloudy and the sun was the same deep red color tuftt had cbaMCier ized it for days.

The thick clouds at the south lasted from the previous night andse- nied to presage violent gusts ot wind and rain. In some places there was thnncier and slight showers as the clouds began to rise with the genite breeze. As tds advanced the darkness increased in intensity. Ihe otou Is rolled in from the southwest aud lav strata low down upon the bills. A few nfis that here and ihfcie early in the dav let in occfislonal gleams 1 eight closed and a universal gloom sellh-d upoa tbe counity.

By the middle of the forenoon itie oarknesH was like that of night, and n-cessitsted the almost entiie suspension of out-door labor, while eandlelipnt was eoed. The birds sang their evening song- ana retired to fowls weut to roost cocks crowed to each other as hey do in the night hours night birds, such as the night hawk and ti whii -poor will, began to fly about and whistle, the cat le came lu from the pastures and the fiogK piped in the marshes.

Cutter ot Ipswich Hunlet in a well lithled room at noon time could not see lo rendlaige ini without artificial light. In other pu cCb conimon pnut could not read in the opon air for several hours without artificial tight.

People dired at mid-day and in the afteruoon by candle liulii. At a ot court ina church at Grotou people could not bo disiinguished at the distance of a tew feet nntil lighlod cand.es were brought in. Ptoi le going nome from a public meeting wtr-- comi elltd to stop, their refusing lo proceed, fco dense was the daikiuss and the terror occasioned by It.

'They were interni pled aud skirted each od-tr, and torches borne iu the streets caat reflec- lioDS like the aurora borealis upon their under surfaces. 1 heir pievailiug color was taint rod, yellow and brown. The air was heavy, close and stifling. In the low lauds the was so heavy lliat the iH'opie found it hard to breath birds were sullocated or driven into ll.e bouses, where they gauu-d hut little reliet as the also filled with smoke. Di Jercmey Belknap, niinisierof Bo-ton, in writing about the occurrence to Ebcnezer Hazard of Pi.iladelphia, that the vapor smalt like a malt hoi se or coal-kiin.

During the darkness green ob- jicis were a very deep greea, verging to blue, those were naturally hue were liiigod wilh yellow. Almost eve'-vthing bad a yellow Huge a-ad a eickiv, elancheily gloom overcast the taca of nature. There were earlv showers in nunr places, and in some localities showers at intervuls during the day. Tiie rain IPal teli was thick, dark aud sooty, aud smelt bauly. Water caught lu had uoou it a thick tciim which was like black ashes or burut leaves.

The water had the same strong, sooty smell as tht air aud the ashy scum was observed floHiing ou tbe felli tace of the nvers and pond At night, lu the md veered to the nonheast the ocsan shores were covered with soot, a strip four or five iLcl es wide reuiaining upon the beaches when the tifie fell. hue paper exposed to the air soon bo- can soiled and teit grea.sy. No sulphnr-ins or other mixtures appearediu this soot. The rain water felt like lye aud white snowdruts were turned btack as feool could make them. Gei eratly the vapor and clouds appeared to be dcfceudiiig.

In some places, however, it was noticed to rise from the earth. An observer in gives a plc'iiresque acconnt of the phenomena of this kind as seen by him. He says: 9 in the morning after a shower, the vapors rose trom the stirings in the low lai.us in great abundance. I look notice of one h.rg column that acceiided with great rapidity to a considerable height above tne highest hills, ami soon spread into a large cloud, then moved off a litile lo the estward. A second cloud was formed ii) the same anuer, but did uot ascend so lugh as tbe hrfei and a third was termed iu the same place in less than a quarter ot an hour after the seciud.

Abi.iU three-quarters ot an hour at ter 9 these cloiiob exhibilid a very romantic appearance. The uui er cxoud appeared of a reddish color; die second appeared in some places gr.reu, IP otPtrs blue, aud in olhi rs of an indigo color; the third cJoPd appeared almost white." The darkness continued from early dawn until tiriniothe lollowinguext, hut noon time marked the jieriod of its gri-alest density. In different places i's duration vanea slightly, as also did the uigieisot darknesB.

In some taiuilies the noondav repast was onu'ted and the time passi-d in prayer, and one minister called his congregation together prayed that the evil rnighi be averied aud tne cun appear again. Many regarded the phenomeua as a poitenioiis omen of the wrath of heaven against the peoi-le; others considered it as a har- bJigei of the last day, the suu shall he oaikened and the moou shall not give her The common people turned it into ap odigyu.id II iracle, and one minister preached of it as the £ul- lilnieiitof prophecy of day of darkness and ot gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick Another ranked it with sign of Ihe destruc'don ol derusalcm, and vet another regarded it as the pouring out of the seventh vial into the air. Some oelieved that it was emblematical ot ihe moral darkness which h.ad spread over this eim ol the earth, and one pious chronicler de- voutlvsave; tt njay have some good effect on me minds of the but in almost the next seulence destroys thesinngth ot his appeal bv add- however bad we are, I cannot sunpose we are so much vvorselhau the st ot ihe world that beaven has pointeu us out in this manner as the oh- jtcts ot its piciiliar aud then ci.ntiniies bv shuwiug nfilural reasons for the i.heuomena.' The couutry people sai-l that the event was caustd bv the feins of Boston, and one geutle man wrote to a lady in Bos on tne very pleasant opinion that he thought Boston as ripe for desiruc lion as So-lt was in olden time. Samuel Stearns of Taxton coninimtcs a scientific explanation of tbe event to a Tosion paper, aud piously adds: Which darfeiHSs was pcrhaus not only a token of hU ludtg- uation against the crying iniquity and abomination ot the people, but an omen of some future destruction that may overwhelm this land like a deluge unless a speedy repentance should imiiiidiatily take place. Scientific and seim scientific ixplauatious or the phcnotnena were i.nmerously projected.

One man a-sserteU that th darknci8 was caused by a transit of Mercury and Venus; another Itiat a mountain had come hdlween the sun and.he earth; another that the earth had through the tail of a eximet; another that the uuclcns of a comet had encompassed the earth; another that the sun and Jupiter were quartile asjirci. One writer combats tbe idea that the smoke ot Puining forests caused tbe trouble and says: believe it is the first time that it ever came the compass of human iniagiuaiion to 9uppose that the haziness of the sky in warm weather was occa- sioued by ashes being lodged in it, which needed Ihe astisiance ot ram to bung it And the same individual lays down as his tiieory that the ligLi of the sun was obscured by quantities of elastic, heterogeneous vapor generated in conse- quercfc of the great body ot snow winch covered the eaith so long the inter past, and exhaled during the warm ory weather immediately preceding its lime, which had then congealed aud condensed into thick 'The real cause of the darkness, much as it mysii- fieu and impressed some of our forefathers, is easily and tatislaclorily explained. All the writurs of any einseqvence of that time say that the sua wasim- doabiedly oheured by clouds of SiOoke ati-ing from burning forests. It was just abou planting tin e. The tarmers had been for sora eckb engaged in cleariug lands to plant corn aud poiaioes.

Forefei tires of unusual extent had been burning for weeks to effect clearings in the northern fectilenients, especiallv what is now the -State of Maine, the western part of New Hampshire and Matsachuseits and in Vermont. As the weather had bten clear, the air heavy and the wiuds light a id variable for several days precedioi eveuliul Fiiday tbe vapors had collected until the atmosphere had become completclv charged with them to such an extent as to obtcure the light of the sun aud bring about all the iihenomena observed. This was the conclusion leached bv the more iotrlligent members of the com- iimnity at tbe time and is uow unreservedly accepted as the true explanation ot the event wiiich has made the nineteenth day of May a notable one in ioctil New England annals. Similar phenomena to that of this vlay had not been unknown here in America at previous times, ......4 I Ix.k x-uwxrx fYrvfrxKor I The Josefpt second concert in the farewell series by Joseffv was given at Music Hall laai evening, the audienoe being, as on- the previous evening, by no means as large as the attractions offered would warrant. As before, a trio by Joceffy, and Wulf Fries opened the programme, that of Haydn in major being the one selected.

Herr Josefly gave a more extended list of plavlng the and from in A minor. Beelho a i pass ion at by Mendelssohn, two sonatas in minor andP minor by Scarlatti, arranged by Tausig, by Kimberger, in flat. Field, and two new of his own composition, dedicated to Liszt. In all of these the brilliancy of the execution, and the delicacy of nis touch, were contlnnallv noticeable, and added new laurels to bis already great reputation. Encores were necessary as a matter of course, and two t.f the Mendelssohn without that in major and the of Mou- programme were repeated.

And here is here the deception danger come in, for a cold will remain upon the kidneys for weeks without giving anv sign of pain in those narts.

Charles P. Birge has written an interest- icgietter to the Keokuk (Iowa) GateGity. in which he gives an account of a meteor explosion which took place May 10. 1879, near Es- iberyille. Emmet county, Iowa.

He says: explosion ami detonations' were heard lor more than a hundred miles. There was promptly recovered what is known as the Perry meteor, now in my possession, and which 1 have contracted to the British Museum, London, weighing 437 pounds; the mass now in the university at, Minneapolis, w'eighlng 170 pounds, and latterly the mass known as the Pirtzmeteor, still in my possession, 92 1-2 pounds. In addition to the above I know of minor fragments fifty pounds, making a total of 750 pounds. At the time of the fall some boys herding cattle near a lake me fiye or six miles southweslci ly from here these larger masses fell, reported as a part of their experience that quickly after the liassagc of tbe great body over their heads they saw and heard a shower as of hailstones fall- upon the water near by, and uow comes the latest of the phonomcnon: About three eeks ago people began to pick up, near the holders of that lake, small pieces of meteor freni the size of a pea to tbe weight of a pound. 'Ilicsc soon found rcadv buyers at twenty-live cents per ounce by local traders.

People left their women and ent out to the meteor ground, now freshly burned over, aud when 1 reached Estherville, May 3. thousands had visited the locality, the bolt being a strip oi couutry c-nnmencing at or near Four Mile Lake, in the western part of Fmmet county, and running about eight the width being, say one- balf to one mile. Upon thi.s belt many thousands of small pieces were found. They are most generally metallic, very little stony matter about them, though some of the larger ones arc of the same general appearance, aad contain chrysolite in about the same relative proportion as iu the larger masses. They are also as a rule very biack, well crusted, and ai parently Dcrfcct and Independent bolides, not Iraclured particles from a large piece.

The metal, cold, under a hummer flattons readily, is remai kably and readily polishes, giving a steel-white or Mr. Bilge that tbe total weight of the tmoiint recovered will reach seventy-five pounds.
