SHOOTING STARs.-It has been the subject of
considerable speculation whether the bodies known
tn viD mt
action at the moons surface. Observers are
agreed, however, that the surface of the moon
oilers ne evidence oil great agitation. The ndent-
ations of the surface remain unchanged, and no
new phenomena have, it is believed, been seen,
which indicate the existence of volcanoes, which
might discharge small bodies with great force, and
thus give rise to the satellites of the earth. The
case is widely different regards the sun. Chan.
| ges of enormous magnitude are continually wit
messed on its surface, which indicate the action OF
forces agtatng the mass probably in state oil
fudity.. II body were thrown up from the suns
surface it must emitting all considerations of the
planets, describe an epse, having the center Of
| the sun in one of the foci; and thus, however
great the force by which the body may be sup
posed TO have been discharged, it must return fo
the sun, and impinging upon It, would not perform
even one entire revolution.
| 1t, however, the action of the other planets bt
considered, and especially Of Jupiter, it seems By
no no means impossible that, in returning q body SC
| discharged might clear the sun, and perform many
complete revolutions around the primary. In ex
PLANTATION of the cause OF the sudden disappear
ance of the shooting stars it is known that minute
brilliant spot of light il seen to traverse portion
Of the heavens with great rapidity, and it then dis
appears often very suddenly. Three hypothese
may be used to account for this most curious phe
nomenon. First, the body shines by its own light
and then explodes like sky.rocket breaking int,
minnie fragments, too small to be any longer Wis
| lble to the naked eye. Second, such body hay
ing shone by its own light. suddenly ceases to b
/ luminous and third, the body shines by the re
hected light of the sun, and ceases to be visible b
| its passing into the earth's shadow, or, in Othe
| words, is ecipsed.
