A most splendid and beautiful aurora borealis was visible for a long time yesterday evening, October 2 in this town, commencing at 6h. 40m. The weather had been precarious all day. In the early morning there was a thick white fog, the wind being south-west. The wind afterwards changed from that point to the north-east, then in the afternoon to the north. The sky had been much overcast, and some slight showers of rain fell at intervals. The wind then suddenly changed to the west, for a short time, and then back to the north, gently driving the clouds away to the south-east. The aurora then became visible, and was most gorgeous and brilliant, throwing up incessantly various coloured streamers, and many flashes of white light, which passed several degrees beyond the zenith. When the moon arose shortly after 9 p.m. the appearance was still in existence, and was very singular and impressive. During the display and until the aurora had finally disappeared, two large white clouds or nodes were visible, one being similar to a large lump, and the other streaming, and of great brilliancy, in the opposite direction, and they continued so for some time after the aurora had finally disappeared.
