A FINE meteor was observed here by me at 10h. 38m. last night, Wednesday, November 28. Bursting into sight near h Ursæ Majoris, it passed in a course almost parallel to, but about 2° north of, a line joining α, δ, &epsiv, ζ and η Uræ Maj., its light expiring near λ Boötis. Length of path = 40°. No train was observed; the only variation of uniformity of light being at about half way of its passage, where it slightly paled for an instant and then as quickly recovered. Duration about four seconds. Brilliancy three or four times Venus at its brightest. Colour resembled that of magnesium light.
