A DARK DAY.--SINGULAR PHENoME.
MONA very unusual phenomenon was
exhibited on Sunday last. The sun rose
in cloudless sky, though struggling
through thick haze, the usual accompa.
niment of Indian Summer. Towards lO
o'clock the haze or smoke increased in
density, the sun disappeared, and every
thing wore so,nbre aspect. At III the
darkness had so increased that person
could no, see to read in a we'll lighted
room; and thinking that Luna had sud-
denly possessed the impudence to stand
before His Imperial Majesty old Sol, we
searched our almanac for the record of a
Solar eclipse, but in vain. At quarter
before II the whole heavens appeared
as dark as midnight, except to the north
west, where, for the space Of thirty de-
grees IN the horizon, extending TO point
IN the zenith, was the appearance of a lur-
ID flame, casting dull golden tint upon
every object. At II the heavens bright
ened somewhat but at quarter before
one the haze grew more dense the out
lines of the bluffs Immediately isrthe rear
OF the town could not be seen, and in a
few minutes more the darkness of night
overspread the whole heavens, and SOL
emn gloom alone was visible. Lights
were brought into reqnsition in every
part OF the village. This darkness was
OF short duration slight fall of rain sue
ceeded, the heavens cleared away. and by
4 o clock all was natural and straight
again.
The only explanation we are able to
suggest for this darkness in midday, is
