ON September 27, being on the river about 6 p.m., I noticed the beautiful colour of the sky, which lasted for three-quarters of an hour after sunset. The day had been very cloudy, but not much rain had fallen, and about 4.30 p.m. the sky cleared and the sun shone out. My attention was drawn to the appearance of the sky about 6.15, after the sun had set. Great masses of red appeared in the west on a background of gold and primrose; above this the sky shaded from green into blue; the red colour extended upwards for about 40°, and appeared of various shades, deep red, magenta, and rose colour, the various small clouds which were floating about being pink. This red light gradually broadened out and died away, giving place to deep orange and gold, the latter colour lasting till 6.45.
