everything were about right, the turban WAS
white and moderate, growing larger and
finer in quality with her inward cXaltaton;
if she were in a towering rage, a scarlet and
yellow bandanna took the place OF muslin.

Summer is dead.

Dropping her sun-crowned head
While the Past Hours
Knecl, all weeping round her fowcry bed.
Blow gently, Autumn winds;
Sigh soft and low:
Summer only knew Iephyr's balmy breath
But she that loved him
Now lies in death,
Sing ye her dirgc-but sing it soft and low
Mourn, O ye Dryads, mourn,
Your woods are bare.
The gracious summer with her sunny light
No more Will lingcr there.
Her spirit bright
Has spread her wings and vanished into air.

Honders Of a Meteor.

Alto o'clock on Thursday night week,
saws a recent issue OF the Columbus Ca
Enquirer. meteor Of extraordinary brilli-
ancv was seen to cross the heavens at a very
low altitude. Rising in the South, ittook 4
northeasterly course, preserving a perfectly
horizontal line in its Journey, 1t was COM
posed of three parts, which were perfectly
developed balls of an equal size and equal
distant from each ether The first ball threw
out tail which enyeloped several yards be-
hind them. This tail was an extremity
which was somewhat indistinct, having a
nebulous appearance. It. motion was low,
and was visible to the observer forfully fifty
seconds. Il did not fall to the ground like
other mcteors, but continued It's course
northeastward until lost sight of. It was
indeed brilliant and extraordinary phe-
nOmenOn.
