The weather to-day is worthy the month which IL
just closingone Of alternate c.oud and sunshine Al
the wind has ow veered to the westward IL 10 to be
hoped that the latter will prOponderate and give the
lads and asses chance to enjoy Msydsy. in the good
old English gstyle, tomorrow. The late rains have

all kinds of vegetation and the early nowsrs Of spring
donned their choicest color through those balmy
