A METEoRtc SHOWER ExPEcTED.
Many Of our readers will remember
the great meteoric shower of Nevem-
Der, 1888, which was visible through
out North America. These meteerIe
showers are said by astronomers TO
be periodical, returning at intervals
of about SO years. Professor New
ton, of Yale College, who has deve-
ted much time to the investigation
of the subject, states that a similar
phenomenon will probably occur
about the 18th or 14th of November
next. and so confident are astrono-
mers generally that it will then sp-
pear, that extensive preparations are
being made by scientific men in
Europe to observe it. But thirteen
appearances of meteoric showers are
recorded since the year 9OS.

leave the income tax unchanged, the
exemption of six hundred dollars be-

The Chicago Republican says that
the recent homestead law, to which the
emancipated blacks are to be admitted,
and from which those whites engaged
in the rebellion are to be excluded,
opens up all the public land in the
South to actual settlers. In the States
of Arkansas, Alabama, Florida. Loui-
siana, and Mississippi, the quantity of
this land is estimated at forty-slx mil
lion acres. The Republican claims
that thirty millions of acres are good
arabic land, sufficient for four hundred
thousand homesteads, and for the sup
port of two millions of people. This
is a grossly exaggerated estimate
Not more than one acre in ten rs fit for
cultivation. The great body of it is
barren piney woods that may do for
hunting and fishing, but on which
laboring man would strive.

The Houston Record thinks the
Governor will call an extra session of
the Legislature at an early day be
lieving the exigencies of the State de
mand it to adopt measures of reform
and relief The Record adds;
Prominent among the evils which
should be abated is the County Court,
which is fast becoming most expen-
sive and enormous burden to the State,
and ought to be either abolished or so
modife as to hold its terms quarter
ly. Every gentleman from the coun-
try with whom we have conversed in
relation to it complains of the loss of
time and money to which it subjects
him
At the lowest estimate it costs the
State fifteen thousand dallars per
month or one hundred and eighty
thousand dollars per year. This is a
heavy tax, especially at this time, con
sidering the small amount of benefit
derived from its operation, and the i'm
poverished condition of the country.
