IN the recent correspondence in your columns on the subject of the aurora, no notice has been taken of an old observation by Anjou, in Siberia, that whenever the aurora flashed up past the moon, a halo was formed. This, with numerous other observations, which need not be detailed here, have let me to the conclusion that suspended crystals of ice have most probably something to do with the aurora; and my object in writing is to suggest to some of your readers who are well equipped with suitable apparatus, that if they could contrive to pass a glow or phosphorescent discharge of electricity through fine-falling or loosely-compacted snow, they might very possibly be rewarded by the discovery of the origin of the green and red lines in the aurora spectrum.
