there was the appearance of a thick shower of fire It was occasioned by the incessant falling of innumerable meteors commonly called falling or shooting stars Having risen "as usual nt 4 I thought I observed several very bright falling siars but as the windoyr Was covered with steam in consequence of the' change of temperature out ol doors during the night I saw but indistinctly and took uvy box to strike a light without seeing or ihinkin more of the pliruoni eion until I went down to the parlor twenty minutes before six o'clock except that twice I saw a very sudden and bright glare of light which iit the time I supposed to have comp from some lamp or fire in the house opposite On opening one of the parlor shutters I was surprised at seeing innumerable meteors similar to those commonly called shooting star They were moving in a direction downward and I should iy according to the best judgment I could form were falling about half as thick ns the flakes of snow in one of our common snow fulls with intervals of a few seconds when there were not so many I stood observing the phenomenon till 15 minutes before six at which time the meteors being fewer 1 attempted to count portion of them In tne part to which my attention was confined and which was perhaps a tenth part or rather less of the 1 counted 650 stars during the fi teen minutes before 6 They fell so fast and thick however I supposed I was not able to enumerate thus distinctly more than two thirds the number of those which actu ally fell daring that time in the space to which my attention Was directed If I am correct in mv estima tion this would show the number of meteors falling during the fifteen minutes to have been more than 8661) Al Six I went to the of the housor The phenomenon nn now beginning to cease I'uiing thefirsi fifteen minutes nfter six the number which fell in the southern half of the heaven from the zenith down wards was 98 'lhe lust felt ten minutes before sun rise In the'eourse of this time there were two exceedingly bright meteors' I not see them as they did not make their appearance in the flprt to which my atten tion was directed but the steeple of the neighboring dhurch was reddened by the light ot them and I ihen supposed that the glaie oflight in my chamber which I had before attributed to a lamp or fire in the house opposite must have proceeded from meteors The sky was clear excepting nn the verge of the horizon where in the east there were a few thin streaks and small specks of clouds and in the south and south east the round heads of a range of dark heavy cloud Were just visible above the horizon There wtte ho dier a vapour in lhe atmosphere visible round the horizon which in the southeast assumed a vary bcauti ftll appearance during ten minutes about half tin hour before sunrise The thermometer yesterday at 2 was 63 deg this morning at 4 it was 39 deg There was but litthi wind and this from lhe west The direction in which the meteors moved was di rectly downward and not oblique as usually seen ex cept in two instances when lhe course was horizontal nearly in a straight line and from northeast to south west and these two meteors were high and small Generally the meteors appeared to he very low in the atmosphere some to come down apparently almost to the house tops They all had distinct nucleus gen erally about half the size of Jupiter some were larger than this some smeller and a few were larger than the apparent disc of Jupiter They nil left luminous white traces hands or tails which generally appeared to be in popular language about a ymd in length i few were three times and soma not more than half this apparent length Their appearance continued most cases from three to four seconds some five not many if any long er than this There was no appearance of explosion Or bursting to the nucleus of any of them I have never met with any account of snch a phe nomenon having been observed in this country beforeSimilar phenomena have occasionally been present ed elsewhere nod have been spoken of as Showers of Tire to wnicn indeed this bore a perfect resemblance One instance occurred about eighty years since in South America Thia was witnessed at Quito where so many falling stars were seen above the volcano of Gayambo as led the inhabitants to imagine the mountain to'be in flames: The people assembled in the plain of Exico and a procession was about to set out in consequence from the Convent of St rancis when they discovered the phenomenon be occasioned by meteors which as we are told ran along the skies in all directions A more extensive and remarkable phenomenon of this kind occurred in the night" of the 12th of November779 Of this appearance as it was seen at ('umana AS accurate account has been given by Hum boldt and Bonpland It occurred towards the morning when we are informed thousand of meteors eolides fire balls or failing stars as they were variously de nominated succeeding each other during four Their direction was from North to South They rose in the horizon at east north east fallowed the direction of the meridian and fell toward lhe South There was little wind and this from the East 'No trace of clouds was seen There was not a sp the firmament equal in extent to three diameters of the mnait which was not filled with burning stars They word bf differ ent sizes bey left luminous traces of from
