We have seldom seen more beau,i-
fal display Of AURORA BonEALrs, than
that which was visible in the Northern
or rather Northwestern portion Of the
ssy on Sunday night last, from ten to
eleven o'clock. They slreamed high
upwards in luminous jets, some pale and
Others red and glowing, fading away and
returning AT short intervals. The source
Of these lights, however c%iravagant may
have been the theories OF ancient philos-
ophers concerning them, is row univer-
sally, we believe, conceded by aslrono-
mers TO be the electricity Of the earth and
its atmosphere. While adniring those
beautiful sights occasioncdb by the electric
fluid, we were warned By certain hiLeous
sounds, !ha. another 0uiI had been work

beside us upon the earth, whercupon we

We are told by those who heard their
demoniacal swearing and rawlings, and
witnessed their obscene and violent be.
haviour in the streets, that they never be-
fore saw the peace Of the town, or the
sahclity of the Sabbath so outrageously
violated, and we do trust tina. eilicien,
steps may be taken to prcven. like oc-

protect itself from such encroachments-
