THE TRIBUNE. THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 21. 1845. An Agext for the sale of this patv-r. and Av.rai i as is wanted Providence, K.

'I i To malignity and utter falsehood of ilir aua'-k upon in leading article of yesterday's San, it can only be necessary in itat? that we advocated fir giving of JAc Pruittnjf fcy co-i (a lowest bidder, and that u-c umfi'tnly declared t', our friends (many of.whom have tendered us 'hi' would in no Lc a candidate for that Print' or rieeive on any tzrnvt.

If any one think o-jr ord needs i udorsement on these points, we refer hlra to the Al? derman elect of. the Fifteenth Ward, or to any on'- of the many with whom we bare conversed on the subject. Out deterTnlnntion on tliis point has been publicly pro Iairned on j'A (kling occasions, and notorious that the attack of the Sun evinces deception and villany. The Sun now, when its party lost the power, out most valiantly again.t the reprehensible practice ol feeding party presses from the Public Treasury. But it 'ill not a ord a that si loig as the patronage in tiahtls if its oven party, and while they were ing two presses with thousands racked and wrungfrom ibe hard earning! of the People, by enormous 1 Assessment' jobs as well as by direct drafts on the Treasury." We, on the other hand, said little or nothing on this sohject, while our ndversaries were in power, hut, the moment victory declared for our we insisted that these abases must cease.

The public will decide which of has acted Un? manly parti And now a. to the conjoined falsehood of tlie Sun that we have counseled violence and instigated bloodshed if lh? Whigs are cheated "-it of their fairly won triumph in tie late election. Nothing like this is tr ue. We haveindeed OsBce-Holders toproceed with their mediuited fraud; but we never advised or any other than legal resistance, or anticipated other conse? quences th the conspirators than ihr and loath? ing of all htmtsl men und gwd This is what we do i nfi lently if Loco-Foeoistn the City by frattd this it will not hold it for mttny vtnrs to rmnr. We say, therefore, tu all onr friends, Re active, he Ian! in tiding truth in regard to this conspiracy before the whole People, but be ready to submit conspirators shelter their iniquities within the forms nf law.

Ho not fear to be.cheated out of our un? doubted triumph for a short a result wi I rally tbousandsof honest men to our standard, and prove of last? ing benefit to tin- Whig cause. Meantime we go for? ward with inn fearless exposure of the rillainies by which the OfTicc-Hnblers hart? sought lo win and now; when de? feated, to hold thu Common Council, and leave the an outraged and juttly indignant People. Sixth Wartfs I ii" livening Post hints a doubt us to the fact that correspondent Major Brydges" is a Loco-Foco. Hut there no doubt in the case. Had If been a Whig, he would not Imve omitted the vim! fuel the votes for Charter Officers the Firs' District of the Sixth Ward have at! been regularly canvassed and the result declar? ed, in the presence and under the advice of the Tin- cavil about the possible innccurncy of die return i-t entirely an tifterthougl.t, which is refuted by the corres'inndetcc of the vor? for Ifticors with that for Mayor.

These ore fact which Major Brydgcs' withholds; but lliby rire pertinent to the issue, and most effectually demolish every cavil which hus been against the re'ttrn of the Whig candi await with no little impatience appearance of the Reports ol the Committees in the House of Representatives on Retrenchment and on KTpomliturr-s. They hnvo been earnestly and vigorously engaged in the work assigned them, nnd, from the results of their labors so fur as published, wo are warranted in believing tli.it.

after they -hull fnllv known to the public, and (he profligate abuses which have practiced in every department of the Gov? ernment, hy the party whose rule recently shall have been exposed in nil their nuked enor? mity, the toco-Facos will utter their hypocritical bowlings nt the delay of the Whigs in making promised investigations and in effecting promised reforms, in the faintest possible whispers.

The same Committee recommend hill to akil ish the Franking privilege enjoyed by Congress; and they support their recommendntion by point ing nut th'- inconvenience caused bv mails thus overbftraehed, by a prolongation of Congressional Sessions, by the higher rate? of postage made ue hy the grout incurred in earning free letters and packages, and hy various other most forcible arguments; Mr. Stanley, from the Committee on Expenditures, discloses a neat job in the employment by Mr. Kendall of George Plitt a- special agent oi the Department, to travel in Europe, at the exponfts of the States.

To meet bis demands in 1839, Mr. Van Buren author? ised Kendall to transfer $8.000 from the annual appropriation of Congress for the transportation of the mail. The Committee deem this an abuse power and a wanton of the public rnenev. They say that if tin- P. M.

If the City Office-Holders had rested -ati-ried with cheating us in the vote at the late Charter Election, we might have hesitated to encounter the trouble and hostility which we incur by ex? posing' their operations.

Sec. And, in to do no injustice to aay one, we shall endeavor to state the case pre? cisely as it has reached us: A day or two previous to the Election, two ladies of the Eighth WarJ were passing the house of Mr. Orscr, when it began to they took refuge in that house, one of them being an acquaintance there. They found things in delecta? ble confusion, and the inmates apparently engaged in converting tie house into barracks or garri How i- this?" said the lady, von to be all in confusion." I nothing, replied tiie lady of the mansion, -'only ice arc ttoinsto have some Democrats io sleep here." CO We state these circumstances precisely as they been related to us. We brw no charges upon them, and tender our columns to Mr.

John Orscr for auv explanation or denial he may choose to make. We think he will with ui that some explanation is needed. We have no personal acquaintance with any of the gentlemen on whoso conduct we have been constrained to animadvert in relation to this Elec? certainly no personal feeling-ajjainst them. we take our stand on the purity and inviolability ofthe Freeman's Right ofSofTragc, nnd we are deter? mined that no conspirators against that Right shall escape unexposcd or tin rebuked.

That little Gipsy girl continues to aston? ish s.i Irt hear her. Splendid From the Cbatanqa? Co.) April 18. On Monday morning last, aboai three o'clock, we were nwakened by a sudden and extremely briBiaxt light, which shone through the window of our sleeping On opening our eves, we bad a rxwreentarr glimpse of a vividly luminous body or trail which almost instantly passed out of sieht, and was rone. We were convinced tt was a large meteor, and expected an explosion. We waited from three to minutos.

when a report burst through the welkin like a piece ot heavy onlnancc standing within a short distance. There was nothing ia it like thunder but a perfect resem? blance to the sound we have named. If shcok bouse very sensibly-, as it did one in? tooth from the to ha direction was northerly.and the ex? plosion took place, probably, ever the lake. We found, in the morning, that our citizens generally were awakened by the report, nor manvsaw the splendid ohjtjct that occasioned it. Mr.

Tracy, the ctage agent, and the stage driver, were at the time at the barn, just leaving with a fresh team, when they saw the light, and at tne same time heard a cracking or crushing like that of a falling tree. The source of light ap? peared like an oblong body of fire rushing with tremendous velocity through the air. and flight or ten inches in diameter. It seemed to approach the place where they stood in a curvilinear path and led one of them to exclaim. It will strike the bam!" It however passed over, and disappeared as it seemed to them, about a mile from the point of observation.

In it's course, it fjnvo frequent sparks, mp front the sides, and this was probably the occasion of the snapping or gathering aotse which was heard Its disappear? ance waj quite singular described. 1 he long fiery tail seemed to separate from the nucleus, or iieud. anil the latter rushed on, umitiug a dark slue flume: but was no division of its body into fragments, or any thing else re indicate fracture, unless indeed very separation of the ficrv and blue portions were die result of the ex? plosion. The light emitted was nearly as bright as day? light at meridian; The shingles di-'ant houses were distinctly visible. Mr.

Sexton-, our postmas? ter, was, at the time of passage, assorting the mail, having two candles to furnish hi'rii light, out the light of the meteor was so creat as to make them appear like burning in full daylight. From ali we can gather, at least three minutes must have elapsed between the disappearance of the meteor and the hearing of the report. Conse? quently, as 'onnd travels at the rate of a little over thirteen miles a miaute, tho body of the meteor must, have been ncarlv forty miles from either in elevation or horizontal distance, at the time of its explosion. Probnblv il was much higher than it appeared to be to the gentlemen who witnessed it. The whole duration of its appearance was not more than half a minute, if it was as inng.

Its elevation miles from the earth, and its diameter 1070 yards! It is worthy uf.rcmark, that most of those which hare been sufficiently noticed to satisfactory estimate concerning them, have been found to be between fifty and sixty miles from the earth's surface. Explosive meteors have usually, if not always, been attended with the dropping of stones to the earth. The thus broken and fallen are generally tml large, weighing from a few ounces to a dozen There have been instances; however, where hug" masses have fallen. In ono fell in Yorkshire, which measured inches in length, und OuA in breadth, and weighed 00 pounds. It full with such force thai il sunk into the grounj c.l' twontv-onc inrnxi.

Tin1 most, remarkable Mono, size, whose lall has ever been witnessed, was which fell in Coils nccticut some 55 years ago. This fell in the day time, we believe. It was so bright as to be lu? minous, but. if we mistaker.ot.it was not attended with an oxplosion. it rushed down into the earth with tremendous force, and gave such a jar and rumbling as led many to suppose that an earth? quake had happened, was seen to full, and people soon repaired to the field and found its burrow.

It was shortly uncovered, though it had sunk some three or four feet beneath tho surface. weight, if we tire nut much mistaken, was not far from a ton. writing the above, we have conversed with Mr. Horace Palmer, who was on his way from Dunkirk to this place, when the meteor appeared. He was two or three miles from Dunkirk, when he appeared to be instantly surrounded with a most painfully vivid light, pro? ceeding from a mass of fluid or jelly like substance, which tell around and upon him, producing a sul? phureous smell, a great difficulty of breathing, and a feeling of faintness with a strong sensation of heat.

As soon as he could recover from his as? tonishment, he perceived tho body of the meteor passing above him, seeming to be about a mile high. It then appealed to be iu diameter about the of a large steamboat pipe, near a mile in length! Its dimensions varied soon; becoming first muck broader and then waning away in di ameter anJ length until the former was reduced to about eight inches, and the latter to a fourth of a mile, when it separated into pieces which fell to the earth and almost immediately he heard the ex? plosion, which ho says was tremendous. On ar? riving here in the morning, his face had every ap? pearance of having been severely scorched; his eye? were much affected, and he did not recover from the it gave system for two or three days. This is really a marvelous storv; but Mr. Palmer, is a temperate and an industrious man, and a man of integrity: and we believe anv one conversing with him on the subject, would be satisfied tintt In- intends uu deception but describes the scene as nearly as possible, as it actually ap i pcarcd.

Probably however his agitation at his sudden introduction to such a scene, caused the meteor to he somewhat magnified to him. Wit? nesses here speak of the which were thrown ofi probibly one of those sparks feil and enveloped I Mr. Palmer. In addition to its light. Mr.

Palmer, states that its passage was accompanied by a sound like that of a car moving on a railroad, only louder. At Salem, an observer stated the meteor to be i as large as a indefinite, but I proving it to have been one of extraordinary mag nilnde. It was noticed at North Fast, Waterford, and Sugar.Grove, Pa. Harmony, Chtvutawque and other towns in this County. The report was heard at Buffalo.

In Chautauque, an observer dc I scribes it as six or eight inches in and half a mile long. We learn also that burst about three miles be? yond Frcdonia, or about eighteen from this place. I he report that a fragment has been found, a foot or more in diameter, but we know hot the original authority of the statement. If it did burst where it represented to have done, and it was seen here until it exploded, its elevation must have been about miles. This I is pretty low in comparison with most of them, but it would seem from the account of Mr.

Palmer that I it was much lower still. Perhaps it was not ob i served here as long as it might have been from good points of course is represented by ai! to have been North-Easterly. I In copying the above account, the Buffalo Com mercial Advertiser says: At Erie and Rochester, places about miles apart in a straight line, the light was nearly as vivid a.s that This shows the immense magnitude and great hight of the meteor." iXZP A schooner called the Forward' wa? launched on Wednesday at lor the Revenue service.
