IN using the word ``corona'' to designate the coloured glare which has accompanied the sun during the past year, I had no intention of employing it in its astronomical sense, but in its ordinary meteorological meaning-which ``G. M. H.'' (NATURE, vol. xxx. p. 633) has overlooked-as referring to the coloured circles on cloud and haze frequently to be seen round the sun and moon, and classed by some observers with halos. By calling the circle now visible round the sun a ``corona,'' I mean that in appearance and probable optical cause it is more like a meteorological corona than like a halo.
