Scientific paper

IN addition to the several accounts of the curious pinkish appearance of the sun, noticed in the numbers for May 26 and June 2 of your journal, it may perhaps interest your correspondents and the readers of NATURE to know that the sun presented a round disc of a very unusual pinkish colour, here and at Cranbrook (about five miles north-east from Hawkhurst), in Kent, between five and six o'clock P.M. on the afternoon of Monday, the 23rd ult. It was so seen by myself at Cranbrook, in company with several others, who thought that the colour was quite unusual, shining through a thick haze of apparently low cirrostratus, but which was perhaps rain cloud, as the air at the time was light from the north, and cold, while the mist, or haze, seemed to be at no very great elevation above the ground, and considerably lower than those ordinary forms of cirrostratus in which halos and mock-suns are generally seen.
