Remarkable Phenomenon.

EDITOR JOURNAL: A most brilliant ex-
hibition of nature occurred at this place
on the evening of the 9TH inst. at about 9
o'clock P. NJ. A light shown into our
windows, and glancing the eye out, large
globe or ball of fire was observed passing
towards the earth in nearly perpendicu-
lar direction. 1t appeared some distance
off, and west from this place, and was
judged to be two feet in diameter and
three or four feet in length, with long
fiery tail, having deep blue tinge.
Perhaps the most remarkable charac-
teristic of this phenomenon is the very
unusual size, and immense body of light
with which it was accompanied, being
many tii,es larger than any thing in the
way Of falling Stars or shooting mcteors
ever witnessed by those who observed this
most singular display of " fantastic ma
ture." L. s, E.

ferryman of $34, all the money he had,
placed him in a skiff and sent him adrift
down the river. The skiff stove against
the ferry rope, and the man came very
near being drowned. lie caught hold Of
the rope and escaped to the opposite side
of the river, where he had to remain in
the swamp all night, and until noon on
Saturday, when he was rescued by two
