all attempts of our opponents to distract

THE GLASS HoUsE.-A New York
correspondent of the Boston Trans.
cript writes as follows :-'']he Palace,
which, it was announced, would be
opened to visitors on LIST May, is about
half completed ; and does not promise
to be ready for visitors before the LIST
of August next. This mischievous
delay has caused modification to those
who have approved the speculation,
and has tended to depreciate the mar.
ket value of the stock, which within a
few weeks. has fallen from $40 per
share to S135, the par value being
500 per share. The Board of Direct.
ors have just made a new issue of
stock, amounting to $500, 900, making
the whole capital 100000. Tho
great and rapid rise of iron, since the
contracts were signed, has added some
fifty thousand dollars to the expense Of
the edifice. The iron castings we're
furnished by twelve different foun6ries;
they are all completed, but cannot be
put up except in dry weather. The
Palace will probably stand open for
"fve years !" so, our "friends from tho
country need not be in a hurry to
crowd upon us, all at once, this sum
mer." The Tribune says the principal
productions to be seen about the Crys-
tai Palace will be dram shops and
drunkenness.

BRILLIANT METEOR At WASHING
ToN.-On Saturday about ten minutes
past 10 p. NJ, one of the most bril-
liant meteors passed over Washington
City which the Editor of The LntelH-
9encer ever saw indeed, its light was
intense, and it was apparently SO near
that its sudden flight startled more
than one pedestrian. Originating near
Arcturus, it passed just west Of Benet-
nasch, (ursa major and disappeared
at the same elevation above the hori-
zon, but about ten degrees west of the
pole star. The light was quite equal
to that Of the brightest rockets, illumi
mating every object almost as wildly,
seemingly, it was at no greater eleva-
ton above the city.
Its path was marked by a ruddy
train OF several seconds duration
through the whole trGjet, and, what
was peculiarly remarkable, the portion
of the train between Arcturus and Ben.
etnasch, after the rest had disappear
ed, gradually curved from the latter
star toward the zenith, until it formed
a right angle with its angle to the
eastward. This remained visible for
several minutes. There was no explo-
sion nor any audible noise during its
fight.

10y An intelligent farmer of Waits
feel, VT, has discovered an effcctual
method of removing the coloring mat
ter from maple sap, so that it will
make sugar nearly as white as common
crush sugar. His method is to 6ltrate
all the sap before boiling, through a
hopper or box of sand, which he says
will take out, not only the dirt, but all
the stains derived from leaves, tubs,
crumbs of bark, and every other col
oring matter, that can prevent the SUI
gar from being white and clean.
