I HOPE last night, Nov. 27, was generally clear. It was so here, and we were treated to the most splendid meteoric shower that I have ever seen. I went out quite by chance into my garden at 7 P.M., and saw it in its full glory. I counted in a very few minutes 500 meteors, and then lost count, there being far too many to count all. On several occasions I saw as many as twelve in the sky at once : their radiating point seemed to be about ξ Cassiopeiæ, and from that point they floated in every direction-north, south, east and west. At that time, Cassiopeia being immediately above one's head, the effect was magnificent.
