XXPECTED METEOR sHolinul.

There is some prospect of a considerable display of
shooting stare on the night of the 27th inst. It is,
however, by no means certain, though the probability
Is that on the evening in queotion meteors will be far
more numerous than usual.
This shower was last vidble on November 27,
1872, when many thousands of meteor, were seen in •
few hours. But on that occasion the sky was overcast
generally in the South of England, and few observ-
aUons could be obtained. The shower had been wit-
nessed as long ago as 1798, by Brandes, near Ham-
burg, Germany, and was also seen in 1838, when
meteors were noted to be four times as frequent as on
an ordinary night.
The night of the 27th has been mentioned as the
date of the eoxEed metek.rs, but this is • little open
to doubt, for may appear either aday earlier than
that. An nellook out is evidently desirable
on several eveatings about the 27th.
