_Farquharson on Auroræ_ (Vol. ii., p. 441.).--Your correspondant L.

inquires about Mr. Farquharson, _shepherd_ or _minister_ of Alford. Whether

the word translated _shepherd_ be _pasteur_ or not, I cannot say, as I have

not either of the works he alludes to; but certain it is that the Rev. Mr.

Farquharson, _minister_ of Alford, only recently deceased, was well known

as a meteorological observer; and it is to him, doubtless, that Professor

Koenitz refers.

The "other Protestant minister, Mr. James Paull, at Tullynessle," now Dr.

Paull, is still in life.
