Snipe Hunting.

Some of our German friends took fresh
arrival from their country, yesterday, to Low
er's lane, to teach him snipe hunting. They
gave him lighted candle, which, they said,
would attract snipe, and bag to hold the
birds. His friends withdrew at distance,
and subsequently sloped; but the greenhom
waited till his candle burned out, caught no
snipe, but had considerable trouble in getting
from the isolated spot whereon his friends had
placed him. He is not now an advocate for
snipe hunting.

Nrptune. IL is mystcri,usly associated, as
Sriiiaparelli discovered, with the second
comet Of 1852, or has been gradually form
ed from its substance. The mrtrur' are
distributed through every portion of the
ring, though somewhat uneqnaliy. Every
year. therefore, when the earth crosses lie
zone, about the 10th OF August, there is Il
shower OF lnereors more OF less abundant
according 70 the density OF the c"smlcal
cloud. The meteors shoot from the con-
steiiation Ierseus, which is for this reason
called the radiant poin', and the met@orS
are called l'erSeideS. sometimes the show
crs are very Brilliant, almost riyaling the
famous November ones. II ordinary times
an observer may be reasonably sure OF see
my several hundreds on the nights nen-
toned. These meteors are distinguished
from those belonging IT, other meteor sys-
TENS by their yellow color, and they leave
behind them trails of luminous vapor that
often last several seconds. Poetry and SUI
rersti1ion have given to the August me
feors the name of fiery tears OF st. Law
renee, because they occur on the anniver-
Sary OF the day made memorable by The
martyrdom of the famous saint. The con-
ste!iation Perseus rises late in the evening
i'll the northeast, and may be known by a
Stmi-circle of stars forming the sword OF
The hero. Observers on the nights men
toned will be sure to see a moderate dis
play Of meteors. They may be rewarded
for their pains by the sight of a golden
shower of unusual abundance and beauty.
