A PHENOMENON The Macon I;ly.
yaph and Messenger, OF thursday,
says: "We saw ut the Central Railroad
freight house, yesterday, barrel of
gasoiene, from which the fluid was es.
Gaping in small quantities. Tho cvap-
GRAFTON caused by the nlid was so
great that, warm rs the day was, a
thick coating of ice was formed on the
barrel, and also on the floor where the
drippings fell. The ice rcsembled IL
coating OF snow white frost, and was
fully an inch thick. 1t now remains
Tor some OF our swans to explain how
this phenomenon was produced in the
open air on u warm autumnul day"
