TLe Nashville Prees and Times of the 13th records the following pingular and interesting phenomenon : Yesterday a strange and terrible natu ral phenomenon occurred in Cheatham county, about nineteen miles from the city, on the lino of the Nashville and North western railroad. About one o'clock, while the men employed on the plantation of Joshua Fulgham were going into the field to pluck fodder, the fun being hid-, den behind clouds at the time, and a gen eral gloom pervading the sky, they were much frightened and confused by the ap parent opening of the clouds, judging from the description of the phenomenon, not more than five or six degrees north of the zenith. They judged the cloud to be about three-quarters of a mile high. The sin gular sight attracted their notice. A brilliant whitish red glare overspread an immense mass of black clouds, on the center of which appeared a funnel-like aperture about tour or five feet in diame ter, the sides of which presented the ap pearance of rapged flames darting like fiery tongues, and licking and lapping at a large white hot object passing with in conceivable rapidity down through the aperture. When it left the mass of cloud it did not appear to fall in a perpendicu lar direction, but sloped at an inclination of some ten or fifteen degrees from a plumb line, and grew more intensely bright as it approached the earth. It swept down like a bright angel of death and destruc tion ; it struck the earth with a sound like a sudden, terrific clap of thunder and seemed to make the surrounding hills quiver to their foundations ; great num bers of trees on their rocky sides fell, and continued falling for several minutes after ward, making noU-es like the prolonged reverberations of thunder cliffs. among rockv The men were about four hundred yards from the place when; the fiery mis sive from the sky struck, and were afraid to go and examine the place for several hours afterward. They took courage, however, and being joined by numbers of the people living in the surrounding neighborhood, I hey pro ceeded to the place, and found that it had struck upon a flat ledge of rocks in a wa gon way leading from a farm house to the public road. The fragments of stones were thrown around for several rods in all directions ; the ledge, which is said to be three feet thick, without any seams, was disrupted fur a distance of about fifty foef, split and torn up in fragments ; the soil, which was spread in thin layers all over if, looked as if passed through a fieve At the point where the strange body came in contact with the rock there appeared to be no stone at all, but a very fine, white, floury sort of paste which was quite hot, and a steam ascended out of the hole in which it had buried itself, which was too hot to approach. .Several gentlemen of a philosophical turn of mind were strongly of the opinion that it was an aerolite brought into a state of fusion by coming down through the atmosphere, but had not been completely buried before touching the earth. There was a strong odor about the place, such as may be found in blasting furnaces, and the passage of the aerolite was maked by a light, yellowish sort of smoke. Very fine particles of some sort of oxide continued to fall all over the country for several hours. Ii is the in tention of the people to organize a work ing party to quarry out what remains of the body, which is undoubtedly metal, as soon as the temperature of the rocks will admit. As yet, it seems to be premature to en ter on any speculation relative to the na ture of the strange phenomenon. More over, the scientific men of tha city are already interested in the matter, and no doubt there will be a thorough diagnosis of the strange case. O'COXALLL'S ELOqi'EXCE. 'Perhaps you doubt my testimony. If you do, I will vouch for it with the en dorsement of a man who nevr loeJ Ireland, and that is John Randolph, of lloanoke. When ho went and .heard O'Councll. the old Virginian cried out, .'There are the lips, and this is the tongue of human eloquence.' I think be was right. I have listened to tho impressive solemnity of Webster, been delighted with the grace of Everett, dazzled" with the rhetoric of Choate ; I know the iron ft rengh of the logic of Calhoun ; I have been beneath the magnetism of Henry Clay ; it has been my fortune to sit at the feet of the great speakers of the English tongue on the other side of tho water ; but I think O'Connell's oratory blended into one harmonious whole the solemnity of Webster, the grace of Everett, the logic of Calhoun, and the magnetism of Clay. Nature seemed to have intended him for a Demosthenes of our epoch. She gifted him with everything that goes to make op the great tribune of the people. In the first place, he had a magnifient presence, impressive in bearing imposing as that of Jupiter Webster himself hardly outdid him in the majesty of his appearance. And this is much more than you fancy at first in tha qualities of an orator his physique. I remember Russell Lowell telling us that when Mr. Webster came home from Washington at the time when the Whig party thought of dissolution, a year or two before its death, and he went down to Faneuil Hall to protest, and drawing himself up to his loftiest impress siveness, his brow clothed with thunder, be stood before the listening audience, and Mid, 'Well, geutlemen, I am a Whig, a Faneuil Hall Whig, a Revolutionary Wrhig. a Constitutional Whig. If you break up the Whig parly, sir, where am I to go 1' And, says Russell Lowell, We held our breath, thinking it a fearful thin where he would go.' If he had been five feet three we should have said, Who cares where he goes ! So it was with O'ConnelL There was something majes tic in liis presence before he spoke." Ertrad from an oration ly )VauLu PhU- A Stkasge Story. The telegraphic report from New York, last week, con tained a paragraph relating to Mrs. Gen. Eaton, who was onco the wife of a Cab inent Minister cf the United States, which, to those familiar with her history, sounds like the closing chapter of a sensa tional romance. The report states that this lady, now seventy-eight years of age, has had ber husband, a young Italian, aged thirty, arrested for abandonment, he having deserted her for her grand daugh ter, by whom he has had two children, after having spent 100,000 of the estate left to Mrf. Eaton by her former husband. The gtateine.it revives the recollection of a great sicial tempest at Washington, about forty j-ears ago, of which this lady was the heroine. he was then the new ly married wife of General Eaton, of Tennessee, Jackson's Secretary of War, and the wives of the other members of the Cabinet, for alleged reasons of their own, refused to extend to 1 er social recognition. The result of this quarrel iimon,' the ladies, was, finall;r, a dissolution of Jackson's Cabinet, on what wa th- n s lecringly celled a woman's squabble over a point of etiquette, but for which there were more solid reasons. A few years afterward, General Eaton died, leaving his widow in the possession of a magnificent estate. Tho lady disappeared from public view, until about ten years ago, when we hear of her taking to herself another husband in the person of an Italian dancing mas ter, about twenty years of age, whom she employed to teach her grandchildren the art Terpischorean ; and the finale is, the revelation in the l'olicc Court of New York, of the abandonment of the poor woman in her old age, the ruin of her grand daughter, the wasting of the estate of her furmer husband, and her own de scent, from afiiuence to poverty. Alto gether the story sounds more like fiction than fact. Erie Observer. A Nakkow Escate. A most thrilling and narrow escape from a horrible death was witnessed and experienced at the depot in Elmira, on Friday. Mike Ca hill is the regular yard switchman. In changing a switch his foot was caught be tween two rails, just as an engine he was switching was approaching. He did not have time to remove the switch and get his foot out but thought to pull it out As he sougiit to do so, making; violent efforts to extricate himself the engine was upon him ere word could bo got to the engineer's ear of Cahill's dangerous predicament. Many who saw the situa tion were horror stricken, expecting that the man would be crushed to death. As the engine came on Cahill caught hold of the pilot and clung to it with a deadly grip. His boot was torn from his foot and cut to pieces, while Cahill came oft uninjured, clinging to the engine. He was almost struck dumb with the terrible ness of his situation and the most nar row escape experienced.
