DUBLIN, TriuitsDAY.--TnE WEATHER.--.The long-
lesirsti change in the weather appears to have take!,
_dace. Light rain is now falling, and it is hoped that
'he remainder of the day, at least, may be rainy. The
ground requires a great deal of moisture after the long
irought. Pasture has become scarce everywhere. IV
many districts lambs have died from the want Lf young
4ra3s and fresh water. So far, however, no material
anisge has been done, and it a good dash of rain f, tll
.inw the-past season will be regarded as having been
most favourable to the country. All the crops—saving
only the grass—are considered healthy and strong.
Thi re is a great portion of a bog on tire, and has been
io for s,nao days past, in the county of Kildare.
Tne Keeper Mountain, in the coutity Tipperary, has
been on fire for the past seven or fight. days. A corre-
