SINCE I wrote to NATURE last October (vol. xxvi. p. 573) on the above subject, I have been both surprised and gratified to read no less than six communications on the same matter (vol. xxvi. p. 597, vol. xxvii. pp. 8, 78, 250, 174, 241). Only to-day I have received a letter from a German friend drawing my attention to Goethe's observation at Schaffhausen, he evidently being unaware of Mr. V. R. Browne's interesting letter (vol. xxvi. p. 597). My friend goes on to point out that ``Gischt'' is certainly foam, for in the context Goethe describes how he saw a rainbow in the ``Dunst,'' or mist, thus enabling us to contrast the two words.
