METEORIC.
The Celestial Phenomenon Of last f.,

The Celestial Phenomenon of last Evening.
About seven minutes after o'clock last even
ing very unusual celestial display was observed
here by people who happened at the time to be
gazing skyward large meteor shot from the
northwest towards the north, taking course
slightly downward and then upward, in a sort of
SERPENT form. Starting like ball of brilliant
light it gradually increased us it sped along,
leaving a bright, lustrous tail after it, very
much like that of n comet, and finally bursting
like a rocket, scattering jets of light from every
portion of its circumference like what the pyrO-
technists call pinwheel. What was somewhat
remarkable about this phenomenon was the fact
that long after what appeared to be the body
of the meteor itself had disappeared the lustrOus
tail remained, now increasing and now diminish
ing in brilliance for at least ten minutes, when
il commenced to gradually fade away The
time occupied between the commencement of
the display and the bursting, as it seemed, of
the meteor must have been at least twelve or
fifteen seconds and the whole time up to the dis
appearance of the tail covered some ten minutes.
The phenomenon gave rise to quite lively eX-
citement in the city. the people who wit
messed it gave various opinions as to its
cause, some holding that it was really
the expected comet which astronomers
had declared would be Invisible to
the naked eye, and Others contending that it was
merely one of those occasional luminous nebu-
lous displays which are known to occur at this
season of the year, and which have little import
ance in the estimation of scientific folks. With
a view to obtaining some reliable information
on the subject your correspondent visited the
Naval Observatory, but found that no one there
had noticed the occurrence, for the very good
reason that no astronomer was on the lookout
in the dome of the observatory at the time of the
display. Nearly all the astronomers are out OF
town, not having yet returned from their expo
ditions to observe the solar eclipse Wash. Cor.

day night last 18th nst) which covered an area OF
two blocks, we had two of your Safes in building,
which passed safely through the ordeal. When first
discovered they were surrounded by burning lumber
and bear evidence of having had test as our
place OF business occupied seven lots, all covered
with buildings and lumber, all of which were en-
tirely consumed, and to this heat the Safes were
exposed. 1t was with great satisfaction that we
found, upon cutting into Safes, as they were so
warped and swollen they could be opened in no
other way, that our books and papers and money
all saved indeed, the bills out of the Safe
without a SINCE, and nothing is dscolOred but the
binding OF the books Respectfully yours,

MEMORIAL FROM An ISD1AS CHIEF. -
Lewis Downing, principal chief of the Cher
okee nation, in memorial to Congress, calls
attention to the fact that since 1866, as he is
reliably informed, treaties have been made
with various tribes Of Indians with view Of
settling them on the Cherokee domaln-west
ninety-slxth degree, west latitude. They were
made In plain violation Of the Cherokee
treaty Of 1866. In this the Cherokees, so far
from having contracted with the said Indian
treaties In the sale Of these lands, were not
even consulted as to the price at which the
United States has undertaken TO dispose of
them. lie begs leave to express the earnest
desire OF the Cherokees to carry out the pro-
visions Of the treaties with the utmost good
faith, and that he, as their chief, will spare
no pains and lose no occasion to preserve
and strengthen the happy relations now eX-
listing between the Cherokees and the United
States Government; but he deems 1t his duty
to state most respectfully, that he fears II
will he beyond his power TO restrain the
Chcrokccs from resisting all entertainments
| from other indians.

ACCEssoRiEs.-It has recently been de-
cided In Massachusetts that the statutes of
that State only provide for the punishment
Of accessories to felony, and hence that

count, is not indlctable In the courts Of
Massachusetts, the offence of the cashier
being only a mlsdemeanor.

Firm WARD REPUBLICAN, CLUB.-The
regular weekly meeting Of this club was
held last night at Carroll Barracks, Col. c.
H. Holden, president, In the chair, and VIM.
H. Browl, secretary pro Tan.
A constitution and bylaws w1s unlimited
similar to those Of other cluh'. which was
discussed by several persons.
VIM. II. Brown objected to the article In
the constitution relating 10 the club being
governed by the parliamentary rules Of Con-
gress, as every motion and resolution Of
fered would have to hC reduced to writing. /
when II was well known that many members /
were unable read and write.
Several others took the stand that II was
unnecessary to reduce motions to writing,
and hoped the article In tho proposed cOnstl-
tuition would be retained.
Mr., Brown moved TO strike out the article
relating to the club conforming to the par
liamentarv rules Of Congress, which he sub
sequeDtly withdrew
The previous question being demanded,
rambling debate ensucd, W. c. Marshall
arguing that the constitution proposed to be
adopted was the same as governed other Re-
publican clubs, not only In this city, bht
throughout the country. II was the same
as was handed down to the ward clubs by
the Central club, the mother of the Republi-
can clubs of this city. J. sdycs Brown, he
said, was the father Of Rcpuhllcanisn In this
city.
VIM. II. Brown said that j. Sayles Brown,
alluded to by the previous speaker as a
staunCh Republican, was opposed to the i'm
parchment of Andrew johnson. aud could
not be regarded AS a Republican.
Mr. IL. II. Mcrryman here inquired who
the officers Of the club were, as he was not
present at the last meeting.
Mr.. J. l.. Gatchcll proposed to stop all
strife in regard to the adoption by taking II
"strnight - As they do Bourbon whisky in
Kentucky.
The question hclng put. the constitution
and bylaws were adopted.
The Chair announced that In accordance
with n resolution passed Mt the last meeting,
he had selected an executive committee. rs
follows: James Green. Gcorgc W. Linvillc,
W. II. Slater, L. ;. Atkinson. David r. Par

Samuel Brown offered the ioNowlng
Whereas there are five police commission

RcsOlrcd, That this ward recommend II.
r. Merryman for said position.
Mr.. Green moved that two members he
appointed TO present the resolution to the
Secretary of the Interior.
The motion was rejected.
VIM. ii. Brown said he was opposed to
weakened Republicans. When Dick Wal
ZACH placed coppcrheads in power, and gave
them all the work Of the city, Mr.. Mcrryman
was the only man who stood hy the Repub-
lean party.
Mr.. Arrison undertook to explain. but the
confusion was such that the reporters could
not understand his remarks.
