LAST night, about 10.20 p.m., I happened to see a meteor worth recording. It moved horizontally, from south to north, across the middle of the western sky) about half way down from the zenith. The sky was cloudless : had that sky not been flooded by the light of a moon that was scarce on the wane, and that extinguished all but very few stars, the meteor would, no doubt, have been a brilliant phenomenon; under the circumstances its splendour was much dimmed. Its course was indicated by a series of small sparkling spangles, which flashed forth beautifully amid the gold-gray glow; the intermission of its lustre is a noteworthy fact.
