Subtitle: Which alarmed thousands, and excited a few of the learned to make some very curious observations--their result the public has perused in Messi'rs Gill's and Willis's papers, viz. that the late darkness was occasioned by the smoke of burnt leaves; which, I think, nothing can be more simple and absurd.
