A Chat About Fog.

A Bangor Commercial reporter recently had
chat about fog with Capt. Otis lngraham of
the steamer Penobscot. The veteran comman-
per is sure it comes from the ocean. and says
he has seen patch of il on the oceans urface,
at first no larger than a blanket, grow and
spread rapidly, soon covering space for miles
around. He has seen the hull of a craft buried
in it, though the mastS were in clear atmos-
phere and at other times the hull could be seen
though the masts were hid in the mists. An
island will sometimes be hidden while a light
house stands out boldly. and he has seen dense
fog clear away as by magic, seemingly dissolV-
ing. One part of bay may be enveloped in it,
while the remainder glstens in the sun. Sci
entists do not agree about the origin of the fog
some agreeing with the captain and some dis
putting the idea. There are men who think a
glass can be invented which will enable the
mariner to see through fog as he now sees
through the backness OF the night.
An agreement has been entered into, it is
said, by which the distance between Boston
and New York, via the New York and New
England, will be considerably shortened.
