FIrrEEn hundred meteors were observed
BY the Saraas at Yale College, under the di>
rection Of Professor LOOMS.
The Professor states that the reason these
neteors are observed At intervals Of about
thirv-shres years, is that because they move
In circular orbit around the sun in about
eleven days less time than the earth, and
hence the earth only succeeds in getting into
collision with them on their thirsy-fourth
