Abstract
IN the delta of the Ganges, dull sounds, more or less resembling distant artillery, are often heard. These are called “Barisàl guns”; but I do not know the meaning of the term.1 The object of this note is to draw the attention of the readers of NATURE to this mysterious phenomenon, and to the similar “mist pouffers” of the Belgian coast.
