And still the wonder increases, though the
everlasting question, of which we have long
since been sick and tired, to wit: care we to
have more rain?" has been gery agrceably
modified into, ''when is it going to quit raning?"
1t is said-for we ourselves don't profess to
know about such deeply mysterious things
that the last moon changed whilst the sign was
in the Neck, and hence the cause of this regular
diSontedness of the weather. The theory is
plausible one at least, and in the absence of any
other assiguable reason, we may as well adopt
! this one. But be the cause what it may, one
thing is certain, May has made a pretty fist Of
herself this year May, the Queen and Princess
Royal of the years gone by,-she, OF whom II
was wont tc be sung,
''when May is gone, of all the year,
! The pleasant timeis past
hath thus far borne herself so lily and so Su!k-
/ lily; hath deportcd herself so un-queen-Iike, 50
un.May-lke, hath carried unSmiling and I'M
comelv face, that, when she has bid us adien,
she will be remembered only as the whome
lover remembers his faithless, once smiling
sweetheart Her 2ephyrs, her sunshine, her
melodies, her countless garands of hcauty are
as things that srere, but are nat. Let her go
out in rain and mud if she will; they have
been her chosen garments, let them be her
! grave.

The work still goes ON, ana we S'rInISe that lle
future will show catastroPhes of horror, from
secret bombs now being prepared, and hidden

be dire one, all are agreed yet what that re-
suit will be, and VINO Will be the greatest sui
