SINGULAR LUNAR PHENOMENON.—On Monday evening last (29th), about 7.50, the moon, as seen from the High-treet in this town, presented a most remarkable appearance, being surrounded by three concentric circles, of which the two inner ones exhibited all the prismatic colours quite as vividly as they are ever seen in a solar rainbow, the outer one partook of the same character, but the colours were less distinctly defined. A cloud of the the cirro-stratus form was spread over the moon’s disc at the time, but of so thin a texture as scarcely to diminish its lustre in any appreciable degree. Each belt was about twice the breadth of the moon’s disc.
