IN reference to the ``pinkish colour of the sun,'' noticed by several of your correspondents, it may interest them to learn that in one of the last numbers of Cosmos an account is given of this very same appearance, observed on the 23rd of May, at Rohrbach, on the Moselle, by a M. Hamant. He states, ``that up to about two o'clock the day had been very warm, without a breath of wind. At twenty minutes past two the horizon became charged with mist, and a storm seemed imminent. About three the sun lost its brilliancy, assumed a pale yellow hue, and might have been taken for the moon had it not been for its diameter. The mist now began to rise, a north-west wind began to blow very hard; at half-past four the sun became rose-coloured, and at a quarter-past five it turned scarlet.''
