REMARKABLE PHENOMENON.-On Thurs
day evening 18th inst, about o'clock,
when the sun was setting, the sky present
ed a remarkable appearance. A belt of
deep pure blue nearly two degrees in
breadth, spanned the heavens from west to
east. Excepting few isolated patches of
crimson cloud low down In the west, there
was not a speck to mar the serene expansc
of silvery gray sky over head, impercepti-
bly, changing towards the horizon into pale
violet flushed with red; this contrasted
beautifully with the sharply defined sap
phre zone which SO magnifcently girdled
the hemisphere. The phenomenon was
simply cloud shadow, popularity SO called,
but such perfect one is very rare here; it
continued nearly half an hour, and was oc-
casioned by the sun when setting, shining
on a mass of dark violet cloud which rest
ed on the horizon. This cloud was in such
a position as permitted only the blue pris-
matte rays of the sun to be transmitted
through it, and must have been of uniform
density, to produce such well defined and
uniform tinted shadow. The cloud had a
golden lining, which formed an irregula,
curve, and gave one the idea of an arched
gateway opening into the heavens.

More solid thar the glded clouds of heaven?'

DESTRUCTION OF BoATs.-The break
ing up of the ice on the Ohioand Mississippi ri
vers has been attended with fearful loss. At
Cincinnati upwards of sixty barges freghted
with coal and six first class steamboats, have
been wrecked, in two instances the steamboats,
having been reduced to kindling wood by the
great pressure of the gorged ice. On Thurs
day the ice was piled up fifteen feet high in a
solid mass, and in other places huge cakes, at
ter floating down the channel. would suddenly
be hurled against steamboats, and barges. 1t
is estimated that the loss to boats, barges and
cargoes thus far, is not less than half a million
of dollars.
