WITH reference to Herr Wetterhan's inquiry as to the absence of the sky-glow in a clear sky at other places than Freiburg on the morning of January 11, I find that at San Remo, in Northern Italy, where I spent the week ending on that day, a similar falling off of effect occurred at the same time. The sunrise was ``very fine, but nothing to compare with the sunset of yesterday,'' and ``the filmy streaks were very thin, and stretched this morning from south-west by south to north-east by north.'' Nevertheless there was the strange bluish-white glare above the eastern horizon, casting shadows, and a thin pink film up to about 75° at 28 min. before sunrise. The sunset glow of this day and of the day before was magnificent, the procession of colours beginning about 15 min. after sunset, and lasting a full hour. I see that your Constantinople correspondent also mentions the sunset of the 11th as a remarkably fine one. The air on the 10th, not the 11th, as at Freiburg, was wonderfully transparent at San Remo, the whole range of Corsican mountains, over eighty miles distant, standing out sharply for 15 min. before and after sunrise, and the sun himself bursting forth in great splendour from below the sea line.
