Meteorological Record for September
1877.

Maximum temperature on the 1st "a degrees.
Minimum temperature on the 22d, As degrees.
Mean temperature of tie month, Ga. 70 degrees
Mean temperature of September in the Middle
States for many years. as reported by the Signal
Service, GO 3 degrees.
Rain fall 6.24 inches; inches fell in the con-
tinued rain of the 9th, 7th, and Sth, so much
needed at that time, and without which the
preparation for wheat sowing could not have
been continued. With an interval of nine days
without rain, from the 18th to the Goth inclusive
there were yet IL days on which rain fell during
the month. The amount of rain has been CON
siderably above the average for September. The
mean rain fall for September in the Middle States
for many years, 3.45 inches.
Frost was observed In low places on Saturday
and Sunday mornings, the 22d and Odd, but
have not heard of any injury to vegetation.
The peculiar yellowish green light dillused
through the western sky, to an altitude of 45
degrees and reflected upon the earth in the same
tints on Sunday and Monday evenings, the 23d
and 9th, was SO singular rs to attract the atten-
ton of the most careless. A similar light,
though rarely, is seen after summer showers at
snndown, but then with much more censpicu-
Gus clouds. Several who spoke TO me about
this light of the other evenings were inclined TO
attribute IL TO the "harvest MOON" but il was
doubtless the effect of the thin stratus cloud,
which though scarcely percepiible, covered that
portion of the sky, and as the twilight reflected
from the air above, fell upon the cloud, some of
the prsmatic cOlors were obstructcd while
Others forming an unusual tint passed through
the haze to the eye of the observer. This occur
red only at or after shutdown because the direct
rays of the sun were not so obstructcd.

RAILROAD ACoIDENT.-The first fatal &C.
cident on the Peach Bottom Narrow Gauge
Railway occurred about IS miles from York,
on Thursday, September Goth. The train
had some seven hundred Sunday School
scholars on board, bound from Delta to
Springwood, where they were to picnic Just
as the train had crossed Lutz's bridge, II miles
from Delta, the engine jumped the track and
plunged down an embankment 10 feet high.
By the sudden stop the platforms of several
of the cars were jammed together and broken
off Two boys who had been standing on
one of the platforms, were crushed to death.
Two other boys had each Il leg broken, while
number of other people were slightly bruis-
ed The boys had been told several times to
60 inside, but dsobeying orders they paid the
forfeit with their lives IoWsontoUn Union.
