The weather.-Accounts Of the late
extraordinary changes and GOODNESS Of
he weather, reach US from all parts Of
the country. Although these accounts
are loosely stated. and in very general
terms, yet II is obvious, that it is very ex-
ensively understood and believed, that
he severity of the frostsin the course OF
he present month, have been rarely e.
aualed at tie same season OF the year.
We are very apt to misrecollect the state
af he weather from time to time, me-
moryis ce' tainly not safely to De relied
IN relative to this subject, from any
great length of time. Itof course, be-
cnmes extremely imrortant that regular
journals of the seasons should be kept,
"a various parts Of the country. the tenn.
perature. and changes, carefully noted.
hat the facts on this interesting subject
nay be accurately asceftaiRed. We hope
sllis u'atter has been attended to by sci
entifc men, this season, in order that il
oaybe precisely known whether it has
sppened heretofore, that ice has been
fmed in the month Of JVne. of two or
hree inches ia thickness. aad that snow
as fallen to the depth OF several inches.
A great mass OF usefnl information

e necessary instruments. would be
3Feill to devote few minutes in each

equires vcry little labor in each midi
