PHENOMENON. Last Friday evening, a lit
tie before o'clock, singular phenomenon
was witnessed by several persons who were
sitting on the guards OF the steamer War
Eagle. II consisted of an immense ball Of
light which suddenly appeared in the heav-
ems at an angle of about 45 degrees, and
fell from thence to the horizon, leaving be-
hind it, not a fiery tail, as is usual with such
pber omena, but a track of dense white
smoke, which kept its perpendicular position
in the sky for about three minutes, and then
slowly curled itself up like huge serpent
and in about ten minutes vanished. -Gale-
