TIIK TIMES NEW ULOOMFIELD, PA.. JULY 13, i860.
A Remarkable Meteor.
Macon, Ga., Juno 80. Last night,
near 13 o'clock, there occurred Id tills
region a phenomenon Which for grandeur
has not been, ciyinled since the great mo
teororlo showers of 180!). Ik might be cull
ed a meteoric, solitaire of tbe first water.
The night was very dark but the eky was
perfectly cloudless and the stars wore brll
llaut. Suddenly an Intense light lit the
city as if by mnglo. The buildings around
the trees,and even the leaves, sprang out of
the gloom and quivered in the weird radi
auce that shone upon us. The glow was
different from any artillolal light we have
ever seen. It was not the light of the sun
er the moon, nor yet was it gas light yet
whiter aud a thousan j times more power
ful. In an instant' the trees around
wore pictured on the ground, and slowly
their black shadows moved past our foot
and lengthened behind us. Q
Involuntarily every face was turned up
ward, and a most striking apparition met
our View. Not a star was left, but direotly
above, at the zenith, a great mass of Are as
large as a barrel whirled in the air. It re
vevolved in the centre of radiance incompa
rable, and moved slowly down the north
eastern sky with majestio grandeur. At
45 elevation the light changed to a bril
liant red, poled into saffron, and then into
all shades of green. As it begaa to change
its hue it emittod particles or balls of Ore
that followed or lingered in its wake.
Surrounding it, also, in this stage, was a
dense vapor or smoke that reflected all the
colors through which the bnll had gone.
At 80 elevation the light went out, aud
wo stood on the street, blinded and awed.
Three minutes glided away. Exclama
tions of wonder and admiratiou had been
made, and fright bad passed away, wheu
there burst upou our ears a deep-tonod
boom that rose and full in reverberations
for thirty seconds. This noise was similar
to that produced by the firing of a 100-ton
guu ten miles at sea, with the echoes
breaking irregularly along the coast. The
sound, however, had mixed with it a me
tallic ring not heard in thunder or explo
sions. So brilliant was the light that people
were awakened in their bouses and praug
from bed terrified. In this city it produced
much fright among the negroes, who filled
the air with prayers and loud lamentations.
On the plantations the effect was the same.
Many who witnessed the phenomenon felt
the earth shake just previous to the explo
sion. At Hawkinsvillo, 40 miles south of
here, the moteor was observed, the rumb
ling was heard and the shock was felt. The
meteor was observed for 40 miles north and
nouth of Macon. Tbe following special
was received from Eatonton, 50 miles
north of Macon : " Meteor fell between
two places ; meteor observed, but did not
strike here ; appeared to go in a southern
direction."
He Wanted Matches.
The Rev. Lloyd Morgan, a young Bap
tist minister of Western Pennsylvania, is
iu trouble from his habit of roaming
around the homes where he sleeps at
night, after everybody else has gone to bed.
lie boarded at Deacon Snyder's of Logans
port, and one night wandered into the
room where Snyder's daughter and a vis
iting young friend of their's, Miss Eva
Connor, were in bed, if not asleep. The
girls ordered him out, and he went. The
Snyder girls told their mother, and Snyder
interviewed Morgan about the affair the
next day. He said his light had gone out
and he was hunting matches, and pleaded
that the little affair be kept quiet. Tbe
Snyders agreed for the good of the church
to say nothing ; but Eva Connor, when
she weut home, talked, and the incident
she told made a noise. The older Snyders
kept a watch on Morgan after his match
hunting expedition.
Soon they heard him roaming again one
night. Snyder got up, found Morgan's
chamber door open aud Morgan kneeling
down beside the Snyder girl's bed. He
lifted him up and bounced him out, and
went and got a pistol to shoot the preacher
on the spot ; but Mother Suydur bagged
her husband not to shed blood, and Mor
gan prayed not to be sent to his account all
. -unprepared as he was. The prayers pre
vailed, and Snyder put up his pistol, but
told Morgan to leave his bouse tbe next
day. Morgan prayed not to be exposed,
but be permitted to remain, and Bnyder
agreed to keep him on condition that be
was to be locked in bis room every night
the deacon to carry tbe key. Morgan ac
cepted Jhe situation, and for some time he
has been the deacon's prisoner when not
preaohiug. But the affair finally got out,
and cow the Homeward Baptist Church at
Logansport is investigating it. Deacon
Snyder brought the charges and Parson
Morgan is making a bold defense.
IW A dispatch from Victoria says :
" On Saturday last k large crowd assembled
at Wellington to perform a series of ath
letic sports. During the day Thomas
Hall, boatswain of ship Maggie E. Zed,
created a disturbance, and was chained t
a post in the stable of tbe Wellington Ho
tel. About six P. M., the stable was dis
covered on fire. A rush was made to res.
cue Hall, but before the chain could be re
moved the flames drove the rescuors back,
with scorched hands aud faoes, and the
victim was burned alive before their eyes."
GONE UP!
