SIGNS AND WoNDERs-THAEE Suns ARISE
AT ONcE.--A gentleman who arrived in the
city yesterday, from Lee county, informs us
that the people Of that section were thrown IN
to great panic and paralysis a few mornings
ago, by the wonderful spectacle Of three suns
rising at tho same time. The central orb was
encirc'ed by beautiful rain bow, and sur
mounted by the fragment of another iris which
extended On either hand above the attendant
suns. The two surplus suns were Of course but
reflections of the bona fde sun on the clouds.
and after brief space these suddenly dissolved
and vanishei, leaving the real Sol solus.
But some people of the county, who had
never heard of 30 strange phenomenon, were
satisfied that the world was on the crunlbling
verge of extinction. The spectacle is said to
have been sublim. and splendid beyond de-
scription and inspired admiration even in the
breasts of those who regarded it as the portent
of awful supernatural developments. 49, lynch.
