THE WEATHER IN THE NORTH. - MALTON,
Wednesday, May B.—The weather here is indicative of a
second winter rather than the approach of summer. For
several weeks we have had biting, cold north-east winds,
which have seriously retarded the growth of the crops,
more especially in the pastures. The last week has been
one of extraordinary cold, the nights befag also frosty.
To-day (and for some days past, at intervals) we have had
some snowfalls, the moors and wolds this morning being
white as in mid-winter, and even in the town snow lay for
some hours before sunrise. The reports from the country
speak of the almost total destruction of the apple blossom,
other descriptions of fruit trees being less injured. Early
potatoes are all cut down, almost without exception. The
