Snow at Albany. EARTHQUAKE AND SPLENDID METEOR.-On the evening of the 29th January, about half-past 9, the shock of an earthquake was very sensibly experienced over the whole of this county. Many persons felt their dwellings severely shaken, tins and crockery rattling against each other, others were awakened from their sleep by the alarming motion of the house. One house, it is said, was so violently agitated that the doors were thrown open; and very many felt so severe a concussion that they went into another apartment of their dwelling to ascertain whether some heavy body had not fallen. The noise was heard in almost every dwelling and portion of the county, but not by any means so general was the agitation of the earth felt or noticed at the time. The sounds and motion were not of more than two or three seconds duration. It is supposed to have been very near our surface, and running in veins, but a very slight shock -as at short distances from situations where the most violent agitation was felt, none at all was experienced -and the sounds also at places not far separated, appeared very different in excess.

About 3 or 4 minutes after the shock-a splendid meteor appeared to the westward, and passed from south to north, exploding about midway between the zenith and horizon-in brightness it rivalled the moon which was shining in full splendor at the time. At the moment of the shock and appearance of the meteor, the atmosphere was clear and serene. The agitation experienced was confined to elevated situations, and little, or perhaps none, felt on the level plain.Antigonish Chronicle, Feb. 1.

SHOWER OF GRUBS AT MAHONE BAY.-On Friday morning, the 5th inst, Mr. Acker, a respectable inhabitant of Oaklands, Mahone Bay, was much surprised at observing upon the snow that had newly fallen, a number of grubs, (in reality quite numerous,) a circumstance which he can account for in no other way than by supposing that they fell from the clouds. B. Zwicker, Esq., of Mahone Bay, saw some of these grubs, which were, to all appearance, like the gray cabbage grubs. Upon placing them by the fire, they showed symptoms of life. Phenomena like this have been noticed in other countries, and are too well authenticated to cause any doubt upon the subject, but we never heard before of an occur rence of the kind in Nova Scotia. Robins, Mr. Acker states, were quite plenty in the field where the grubs had fallen, and appeared to enjoy the repast which Providence had provided for them. The untimely appearance of the robins upon the clearances, is no less remarkable than the other phenomena― and we understand that they have been seen in other places, and in the fields of the peninsula of Halifax.
