WHAT your correspondent, ``J. W. B.,'' saw after sunset was not the zodiacal light, which is easily distinguishable by its great extent of area, lenticular shape, and invisibiltty during strong twilight, but it may be not incorrectly termed a sun column. I find the following entry in an old journal, of a similar appearance:-`` 1868, April 17.-Sun column, continuing half an hour after sunset, which was perfectly bright, without clouds.'' Perhaps some of your readers may be able to explain the cause of it.
