METEORS being in season just now, all facts respecting them will, I presume, be acceptable. The public have lately been treated to a great number of letters in newspapers descriptive of the remarkable meteor of Saturday, November 6th-perhaps I should rather say a instead of the remarkable meteor, because, from the discrepancies as to the time of the appearance and the differences in the description, I am inclined to believe that more than one meteor of unusual splendour was seen on that evening. I need hardly say how important it is to have observations of the visual direction of these bodies as viewed from stations widely separated from each other, because it is only observations of this kind which can afford data for judging of the distance of a meteor. In the hope of contributing information which may assist in clearing up this interesting question, I venture to add another letter to the many which have already appeared.
