[TO THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR.']

SIR,—On Wednesday, October 11th, the rainbow which Mr. B C. Durrant saw at Bushey was very well seen here by myself and many others at exactly three o'clock. The colours were very vivid, only the shape looked more like a crescent than t bow.—I am, Sir, 8:c., F. HYDE PARKER. Meaford, Ventnor, Isle of Tight, October 23rd.
