The METEoR.-The Boston Journal pub.
fishes the request, in behalf of the cause of sci
ence, that those who saw the meteor, on Fri
day evening, under favorable circumstances,
will communicate the result of their observa-
tons to B. A. GOULD, Jr., of Cambridge, who
has undertaken to investigate the path and
probable origin of the remarkable phenome-
non. The following questions are offered, to
which answers are solicited: -
l. What were the direction and altitude of the
meteor when it first seen, and when it was last
seen?
O. How long was it visible?
8. Was the explosion seen?
A. What was the interval between seeing the me-
teor and first hearing the report,
g. How many reports were heard, and at what
intervals7
6. Do you know of any fragments falling to the
earth?
I. What was the apparent size of the original
body and of its two components as compared with
the sun or the moon?
s. What was the bearing at the moment of explo-
sion?
8. Did its apparent path (which is almost uniform
ly described as ''nearly horizontal, ~ have an up.
ward downward tendency or did it rise and fall
again In the latter case what were its bearing and
apparent altitude-wh highest?
If few exact estimates of direction and time
can be obtained, it will not be difficult to de-
termine the path Of the meteor, and some
trustworthy results may be obtained regard.

miums for their annual exhibition ON the 18th
of September, Withdrawing all offers of pre-.

vegetable and root crops, fruits, domestic and
fancy articles, and such other products as usu-
ally find place in our home fairs. The soci.
ETY. also offer premiums Of So and $40 for es-
says on some practical subject connected with

TORNADO IN UxBRIDGE.-The town of Tx.
bridge was visited Saturday afternoon, by
tornado, similar in character, though of less
magnitude and effect, to those which have
caused so much loss Of life, and property in
the west. 1t seemed to begin in the north
part of the town, near the pond of the Tx
bridge Cotton Mills the water in which was
raised in large volumes, whirled around, and
then hurled back to its bed, thence travel
ing in an easterly direction, taking up flour
barrels, and sending them upward like bal
looms. Every movable thing was speedily
thrown from its place. The shingles were
stripped from one building, and scattered a
long distance in the tracks of the ruthless
spoiler. Many valuable fruit trees were brok-
en- down, and several buildings were more or
less damaged. Near the factory of C. a. and
j. M. Wheelock in the west part of the town,
the tornado cut path through tile woods,
three fourths of a mile long, and rod wide
Large trees, which Tor fifty years or more had
successfully battled with the tempest, were
broken down. One large tree, in particular,
which measured four feet in diameter, was
snapped off like pipe stem. After cutting a
clean path through the woods it rushed along
the fields of grain, laying it all flat and broken.
1t next seized upon barn, turned it end for
end, and replaced it upon its foundation,
though not SO skilfully as the owner desired.
How far the tornado extended beyond this
point is not yet known. Probably, further re-
ports will confirm the belief that immense
damage has been done. No proper estimate
can at present be made. Eye-witnesses pro.
nounce the appearance of the tornado to be
wonderful and fearful Its effect was certain
ly wonderful.

The game will be resumed this morning at
o'clock. Yale has the advantage of one
pawn the most, and their king is more secure
ly guarded than that of their opponents. But
the issue is uncertain. On both sides the play
has been veay deliberate and careful. Only
seventeen moves had been made at twenty
minutet past six, when they adjourned for
supper, and only eleven on one side and
twelve on the other, between seven o'clock
and half past ten. AS there are chess players
among our readers, we give the score OF the
game, as far as it has been played, for their
entertainment.

To THE SIGNAL.-Four trains will be sent
to-day and the same number will come from
the signal after the contest is over and more,
if necessary. If it should happen, therefore,
that the cars are full before we get to them, we
have only to wait patiently few minutes
when we can have our choice of seats, on its
return. The path to the bridge we hear, is
better than last year. OF course, however,
green fields have not the smoothness of the
highway, neither have they their heat or dust.
To BosToN.-The regular accommodation
train will leave Foster street at this after
noon instead of 4.30 as usual, stopping at the
signal and leaving there at 5.15 with passen-
gers for Boston, way stations and branches
On Wednesday an extra regatta train will
leave Boston at II NJ, reaching here at Las,
and the signal at 1876, leaving the signal on its
return to Boston 80 minutes after the close of
the races.
Stones OMNIBUS will leave the Lincoln
and Bay State Houses at eight O'Clock, this
morning, for Lake Quinsigamond, and return
at half.paat ten. This afternoon it will COM
mence running at one o'clock.

Association meet in this city to-day. The
