Abstract
THERE was a considerable disturbance of the magnetograph recorded here on March 15, and had the photographic curves been developed on that day, we should probably have predicted the occurrence of the aurora seen during the evening. The earth-currents, which are necessary concomitants of magnetic disturbances, were probably intense enough to cause the disarrangement of the cable tests referred to by Mr. Willoughby Smith.
