BROKEN SEwERs.-We regret that
the mouths of several of the sewers
were not repaired before the late rise
of the river. Work was commenced
at the mouth of the short sewer ex-
tending from the foot of Vine Street
to the river, but it was commenced
too late. just as the excavation was
about completed the water came up,
and the excavation will have to be
made over next summer. Nothing
was done TO the mouth of the Syca
more Street sewer, and the deep chasm'
washed out in the sluiee between the
stone abutment and the river remains
as it was. The break in the Locust
Street sewer on the wharf has been
let alone, and the damage will no
doubt be greatly increased before
Spring, especially if we have full
river, as we have had for the past two
orithree winters. #GIiT~ sod

ME1rE0RIc D1sPLAY.-The annual
celestial pyrotechnic exhibition came
off on Friday night according to pre-
vious notice A slight rehearsal took
place . on Thursday night, when a
number of meteors. or, shooting stars
were observed between Ii p. NJ. and l
A. H., during which time from Is to
20 meteors, generally of small oaliber,
were observed They may have, IN

Thursday night as they did on Friday
night or Saturday morning. 4 ga
The exhibition opened on Friday
nightabout IL o'clock, an occasional
meteor being observed, gradually in
creasing 10 number or frequency as
the night advanced. From u to 2
o'clock Saturday morning the display
was exceedingly beautiful, averaging
from one to two meteors per minute,
and for the lasthour from two to three
per minute. Most of them were of
the size Of an ordinary star, leaving a
faint train behind, lasting from one to
two seconds, but occasionally, one of
greater magnitude and Of exceeding
brflfiancy would startIe the beholder
by its great size and dazzling radiance.
They we're most frequent to the west
ward IN the constellation of Leo, but
large numbers were seen in the zenith
and far to the east. One to the west,
of a medium size. left luminous
train, WHICH lasted over five minutes
and appeared to be over twenty derl
grees in length. The same one
was observed by Mr.. Crosby, Of
Henderson, who fixes the dura-
ton OF the train at ten minutes, and
others observing it in this city agree
with him. It was certainly over five
minutes visible, which renders the
phenomenon one. Ofythe most extra
ordinary character Sometimes two
or three trainslwould be visible at the
same time, displaying the several pris
matte colors. q Almost all we saw
moved from north tosouth. A heavy
mass IS of black smoke obscured the
western horizon, extending around to
the south, and rising 50 to 10' above
the horizon, while the central heavens
were perfectly clear and beautifully
studded with stars. At 8 o'clock
Saturday morning, as we learn from
some of the carrier boys Of the
JOURNAL, the display was one of
extreme brilliancyl and beauty, the
whole heavens being aglow with these
brilliant shooting stars, the display to
to the east atthat hour rivahng that
to the west and at the zenith. This
statement is confirmed by the officers
and pilots of the Rose Hite, who had
peculiarly favorable opportunities for
witnessing the exhibition. Our re-
ports of this meteoric shower by tele-
graph, from other places, inspires the
belief that it equalled in beauty, at 8
o clock Saturday morning, the memor
ablelshower of 1882, which produced
such universal terror throughout the
country. ls0 Hsam d.

A FRIG1TFUL AND FATAL RUNA-
wAY-A HORSE KILLED AND THE
DRIVER SERIOUSLY INJURED.-On
Saturday afternoon a most frightful
runaway occurred on Oak Street A
negro man was driving team belong
ing TO Mr.. Ed. Collins, having on his
wagon half cord of green wood. AS
the vehicle crossed the gutter at Sixth
Street, which is bad place for wag-
ons, the load slipped forward, and the
weight Of the negro driver, in chang
ing his position as he crossed Sixth
Street caused the wood to tilt forward,
throwing him on to the double trees
and thence to the ground. The
horses becoming frightened, dashed
off at full speed, down Oak Street to
Third, where, not agreeing upon the
route to take, and each Insisting on
his own way, they rSn against-a frame
house occupied by Duke Nichelson,
one of the horses striking his head
against the building with sneh force
as to knock off several of the weather
boards. They also knocked down the
fence leading from the street to the
corner of the house. The ininrad
horse was released from the wagon
and led back to the place whence he
started, where he fell down and died
in few minutes. The horse was n
valuable one, for which his owner had
refused 5000 only few days before
Both wheels of the wagon ran over
the body of the driver, injuring him
so seriously as to render his recovery
extremely doubtful

DE BTLITATED,

Whose suferings have been protract-
ed from hidden causes, and whose
cases require prompt treatment to
render existence desirable. Do you
feel weak, debilitated, easily tired?
Does little extra exertion produce
palpitation of the hearth Does your
liver, or urinary organs, or your kid
neys, frequently get out of order2 Do
you have spells of short breathing or
dyspepsia2 Are your bowels eonsti-
pated2 Do you have spells of faint.
ing, or rushes of blood to the head?
Is your memory impaired2 Is your
miad constantly dwelling upon this
subject? Do you feel dull, listless,
moping, tired of company, of
life? Do you wish to be left
alone, to get away from every
body ? Does any little thing
make you start or jump? Is your
sleep broken or restless2 Is the lus-
tire Of your eye as brilliant? tile bloom
of your cheek as bright2 Do you en-
joy yourself in society as well? Do
you pursue your business with the
same energy? Do you feel as much
confidence in yourself? Are your
spirits dull and tagging, given to fits
of melancholy If so, do not lay it
to your liver or dyspepsia. Have You
restless nights2 Your back weak
your knees weak, and have but little !
appetite, and you attribute this to
dyspepsia or liver complaint2
How many men, from badly-cured
diseases, from the effects of self-abuse
and excuses, have brought about thGt
state of weakness in those organs that
has reduced the general system so
much as to induce almost every other
disease-idiocy, lunacy. paralysis. spi-
nal affections, suicide, and almost
every other form Of disease which
humanity is heir to, and the real

DEAR SIR:-IH your paper of last week
you or one of your Correspondents say
that DIR. Drake is not the originator of the
celebrated PLANTATION BrrTERs and that
they were manufactured and sold by one
Pedro MGrteLte, an old Spaniard, in the Is
land of st. Thomas, over forty years ago,
as every old sea captain can testify. Now,
sir, can certify TO the above as being true,
for have followed the sea for over forty
years, most of the time doing business
with the West Indies. These same bitters
differently put up and named, were
brought to my notice on my first trip to
the Island of st. Croix for a cargo of rum,
and for years and years after, my ships
stores were never without them. always
supplied my family and many of my
neighbors with them, and can truly say a
better Bitters and Tonic is not made In
all the world. Yours, truly,
CAPT. Henry WENT.
