A meteor that illuminated the whole city
assembled from the east at half past eleven
o'clock last night. Its light was observed
before the meteor itself was visible, and a
policeman in the central portion of the city
thought there was a fire in East Daven-
port; but when the blazing wanderer came
into view, the idea of fire was dispelled.
just in time to'prevent ringing of fire bells.
The meteor made its way to the southern
quarter, midway to the zenith, and burst.
throwing its parts about much as huge
sky rocket does when it reaches its place
of expenditure. 1t travelled slowly leaving
brilliant trail So bright was its light
that clerks in hotels and other people
who were up rushed to the doors, believ-
ing there was flash of lightning, while
the weather was freezing cold. For four
or FIVE seconds all Davenport was as light
as if huge fire was raging in the center
of the city.-DdUenpoH Gazette, Sunddy.

and that il will not fail in what Mr., An

and that it will not fail in what Mr., Au-
gustin Daily calls human interest.
But will Mr.. Hall succeed as an actor?
We hope he will, Yet the stage traditions
are against him. The great actors as
whole, have been bred to the stage, and
have inherited from parents or ancestors
an aptitude for its business. He steps on
the boards man in ripe middle life, and
though his interest 10 the drama has been
constant from youth, and his-associations
with its representatives have been intimate
yet he has not had personal experience
before the footlights. Though essentially
in his makeup an actor, yet his playing
has hitherto been confined to the scene of
politics and affairs. So far as we know,
the history of the drama affords no in
stance of such an entry upon it as that MIR
Hall designs making. Mr.. Hackett left
business life for the stage, and won fortune
and renown: but he was only twenty-six
when he began his theatrical career, Yet
though the presidents are against Mr.,
Hall the public will wish him safe anchor,
age in the sheltered waters of success.-N,

Volatile Oil, an aromatic gum or resin of
extraordinary healing properties, and a
rare alkaloid, unlike any other known to
chemistry, which has an immediate and
most marvellous effect in preventing and
relieving pain. In Burdsall's Arnica lin
iment, the three powerful sanative ele-

botanical agents that tend to invigorate
