WHAT WAS zr?-Blweon 8 and 10
o'clock, says the D.yton Gszatlc, OF
Saturday morning, number Of our citi-
zens heard noise resembling the dis,
charge OF heavy artillery, followed by
lighter reports Of the SINE charactcr.--
One or Two individuals say their houses
were very sensib!y shaken, though gen
orally no mo!ion was observed in connec-
tion with the noise. Ii was heard at
Troy, at the junction Of the Western and
Greenvile roads, and a, the Pinnaclss,
five miles below !he city.
A subscriber living six miles norh-
west Of the city, ;nfoIms US that the
sh, ok was very distinct there. lie was
at work in his blacksmith shop at the
time, and such was the violence nf The
quaking that all hands dt"pped their
lools. Several houses in the neighbor.
hood were shaken.
We learn from reliable authority that
several persons in Miami county saw
two meteors pass swiftly along the hon-
z N at the time these noises were henrd.
! They describe them ms appearing
abou, the size of barrel, and very
brilliant. The people in the Court
House n, Troy we're so much alarmed at
the shaking of the building that they
rushed out Of the house, supposng i,
was the shock Of an earthquake. So far
as we are cnp'ble of forming Judgment
I from these da'n. we think the meteora
we're very large, and tlai they exploded
j, with a heavy report that shook the
. ground for many miles. 1t may have
J been the rumbIing of an earthquake, but
: VIC think no!.--O. S. Journal.

not mere pedagogue. He has devoted
great deal Of thought and labor to the
cause Of education, and ia, perhaps, as
