Forms Of lightning.

The different forms Of lightning are
thus described hy the Christian Mon;
\ flash of lightning is very large
spark Of electricity; just tho same thing
that one sees given Ivy an electric ma
chine in 4 lecture on natural philosophy,
the only difference being that the best
machines will not give i spark more than
4 yard long, while some flashes OF light
mng have been estimated to be several
miles in length
According TO their appearance, various
names have been given to these sparks
in the Sky, though in reality all the several
kinds are one and the same thing.
ON warm summer evening, one often
sees the clouds on the horizon lit up with
brilliant gloWs of lightning uuaccompa-
MED by any sound of thunder.
TQ this appearance the name Of ''heat
llghtning' has been given, and the warm
weather is often assigned as its cause.
In point Of fact, the heat lightning is only
that Of a thundershower 50 far of that,
while the observer can see the flash, no
sound Of thunder reaches him, and the
intervening clouds veil and reflect the
flash till it becomes glow instead Of the
sharp streak usually seen.
Where the flash, starting from one
point, branches out and divides into sev-
craI parts it has received the name of
'Iorked lightning" This is usually seen
when the discharge is near the observer.
Single flashes bearing a zigzag or crink-
led aspect are denomnated "chain or
zigzag lightning" probably from their re
sembIance to a chain thrown loosely ON
the ground,
Again, when several discharges occur
from about the same place at the same
time, and are screened 10y rain or clouds
50 as to light up the heavens with broad
bright glow, the title Of 'shect lightning
is applied
These four comprise all the common
forms. There is, however, one rare man
Hesitation called "ball lightning" In this
phenomenon, q small globe or ball Of ap-
parent fire very slowly rolls along the
ground, and after Il time suddenly eN-
plodes, scattering destruction around.
There are but few instances of this on
record, and no very satisfactory eXplana-
ton has ever accounted for this curious
appearance.
