The great meteoric shower which occurs only every 33 years, is due on the 13th of November this year. It occured last in 1866 but was mostly seen on the other side of the earth from us. The last one before 1866 was in 1832, and that was an exhibition of celestial fireworks, that no one who saw ever forgot. This year’s exhibition may equal that of 1832, but the chances are that it will not. 'Besides there ate great probablities of the sky being cloudy on the night when it occurs and again the main display may, as in 1866, ■ot be visible from this part of the world. WEDNESDAY. Rev. 8. P.

We regret to state that the favorable indications in Judge Healy’s sickness have not continued. He is now apparently growing weaker, quite constantly and complete loss of appetite is another unfavorable circumstance. The Inbianapolis Journal says that the state fair just closed was the most successful one ever held. The receipts are said to be $38,000. Thursday there were fully 12,000 people on the grounds. The exhibits in all departments were attractive. In all about $25,000 was paid in premiums. The first frost of the season sufficiently severe here to cut the corn leaves, occured night. The frosts of a week or two ago were much harder in other portions of the county than here, and are reported to have done much damage to late corn in the low ground of the Gifford and Kankakee regions. Everything is not always lovely even in Tennessee. Thus Andrew Anderson, who went from here to near Manchester a couple of years ago, writes back that the army worms got after him this year and cleaned out about everything he raised. He has also been unfortunate in having most of his family sick about all summer.
