The Meteoric Shower in England.
A special Cable dispatch to the Herald, dated
at Greenwich Observatory, at six o’clock Thurs
day week, reports that the meteoric shower
was a magnificent display in England. Twelve
thousand falling stars were counted. The fol
lowing is the dispatch :
The expected meteoric showers were observed
last night. At nine o’clock a few meteors fell;
at eleven o’clock they had increased in number
and size, and between one and two o'clock this
morning the maximum was reached. The night
was clear and the stars were out in great
numbers. The whole heavens were brilliantly
illuminated.
The showers of meteors were of great beauty
and brilliancy, and radiated from the constel a
tion Leo, near the star Gamma Leonis. Their
direction was mostly from the east to the west.
The paths of the meteors were from three to four
degrees in the north. Near Ursa Major twenty
or thirty were observed at one time, and cross-

orange, and amber. Nearly all nad tails of
fire. Os two flaming from Leo at the same time,
one crossed Beta Geminorum and the other
Mars. Two more, one red and the other of an
oriental sapphire color, crossed Alpha Orionis.
►Some of the meteors burst forth in splendor ;
one, breaking behind the rising clouds, flashed
like sheet lightning, and another of emerald hue
burst near Eta Leonis at fifteen minutes after
two o’clock A M., its trail of flame.being visi
ble for a minute and a half, and then farted
away in brilliant nebuhe.
At three o’clock A 51. they commenced to di
minish gradually, until, at the present moment,
they are all, meteors and stars, fading away in
the morning light.
We counted five thousand in one hour—nearly
twelve thousand in all—with the naked eye.

DR. T. P. CRUTCHER,
Has again returned to »ia-
CON, where he is prepared to treat all persons
wishing to avaii themselves of the benefits of the
“EQUALIZER.”
The medical profession has long stood in need of
some agent whereby those obstinate diseases of a ner
vous character might be overcome, which arise from
a want of proper ciret’ation of the BLOO O or NERVO
VITAL FLUIDS. Dr. Hadfiild, of Little Rock, Ar
kansas, has placed in the hands of the Profession an
instrument that he terms an *• EQUALIZER,” which
promises more than any re menial agent heretofore
used in the treatment of NERVOUS AFFECTIONS,
such as Rheumatism. Paralysis, Neuralgia. Sciatica,
together with many affections peculiarly incident to
females. The princ pie upon which the instrument
acts is simple, but strictly scientific, and n accordance
witn the Physiological and Pathological views entertain
ed by our profession since the days of G&Ln.
The “ Equalizer 99
consists of a Receiver sufficiently large to Seat a lady
within the encaseme t without inconvenience. There
are, also, other Rec ivers for the arm, leg, and other
portions of the body, which may be adjusted by a
child ten years es age. < To the Receiver is attached an
AIR PUMP, by means ofwhicithe air is exhausted
from the part enclosed. This causes a rush of blood
to the capillary system, thereby dilating and opening
up the way for the vitalizing fluids, so necessary for
the maint c nance of life and vigor in the port diseased.
Causes of Weakness, Debility, Paralysis-
Deprive a man, no matter how healthy and robust
he i.-, of his na ural and proper supply of food, and
he will soon become weak, debilitated, emaciated, and
fina’ly die of starvation. The Blood Vessels, which
permeate every part of the body are mediums where
by food is conveyed. Every bone, muscle, vein, arte
ry. gland, tissue and membrane must have anew sup
ply continua ly afforded it, and there is no possible
means of conveying this supp’y except through tho
medium of the blood vessels. Then, if these vessels,
from contraction or disease, fail to do their office, the
parts so deprived of nutriment are swollen or dimin
ished, losing their natural size and vigor, and finally
die. This is the real cause of a multitude ot diseases
which at times appear without any assignable cause at
all. „ •
Now, what we proposo to do with our “ Equalizer is
to aid and 1 ssist nature in restoring a healthy circula
tion, by stimulating the vessels which supply diseased
parts to action by restoring them to their normal sise
and power until they are able to supp’y the parts with
the amount of vital fl lid neces-ary to its life and ac
tivity- Tins has the same c«ct on weak or para.yzed
parts as suppb ing a starving man with nutritious food
