About Six at Night the North Part of the He. 
mifphere appeared of a faint Red, the Horizon was 
very dusky, and this Rednefs was bounded above by a 
very dark Cloud. 
As the Night advanced this Meteor reddened, till 
. it was of as deep a Colour as Blood ; and it fpread it* 
felf to the North Eaft. It continued all Night, but 
about Two in the Morning, I obferved that it fent 
forth two and three Streams from its North Part, of a 
whitilh Colour, which fhot up to the Zenith. Thefe 
Emanations looked much like the Rays of the Sun, 
when they pafs through a dark Cloud, when its faid 
to be drawing Water. I took it to be an Aurora Bo- 
realis, but it appeared much fainter than thofe I have 
feen in England. 
Dr. Samuel Chew at Maidjtone , tells me, that he 
has for fome Days paft, at Morning and Evening, 
obferved feveral Spots in the Sun, very plainly 
with his naked Eye, fome of which feemed very 
large.
