The Weather. .

NEw PANS, Dec 7th, 1859.
DEAR EHPTnE IL WA much pleased, and
greatly edited, by the perusal Of your article on
the weather, in your issue Of the 9Th inst. II
strikes me that the weather is very interesting
subject to write upon. II is not, why do peo
pie talk about II so muohi That which we all
speak Of should certainly afford substance
enough for a sentence two In writing. Some
son Of belle France has said that " EnRlshmen
and Americans are tres oros bOres, for sternally '
saying something about the weather, when they
meet friend" But with all due deference to
Mons. orapau, think he was talking about
that Of which he knew nothing at all. Il never
occurred TO him that we unbutton and button
up al the dietation Of the "cerk" of the weather,
and are very apt to speak first and most fres
quently Of that which rules our every action.
With the above lucid introduction, allow me
TO say, that the aforesaid weather has been
playing some rough prAnks out 10 these valleys.
Tuesday 18th inst) opened warm and rainy
thermometer standing about SO degrees above O 4:
continued so until about O'Clock p. M, when
the wind changed from s. s. e. d s. W. to dit
rect Nj and in twenty minutes the mercury
fell ls degrees, contin uing 10 sink until night.
fall, when the mercury stood at 20 degrees
About 10 o'clock P. M, snow began falling, and
continued until IL had reached an even depth
Of perhaps five inches. The changing wind
finally settled. blowing tolerably stiff breeze
from of the coast of Labrador. found that
Longfellow was not mistaken when he expressed
an opinion that winds from that source were of
a freezing frigidity. The mercury stood 8 de-
gress below zero. this morning at daylight
Think Of that ye residents of the land Of the
olive and the date, and wonder no longer that
we talk Of the weather, in these demi.hyperboS
rean regions. Fiftysthree degrees 10 less than
twelve hours Shades Of great Boreas what
can we do to appease thy terrible anger, and
induce thee to recall to thy northern cares the
winds which have so frozen our blood within
us at is an i'll wind which blows no good
to any one" is good old maxim, aud in this
extreme weather we have It verified for the
billionth time. Howl Why, my verdant
question asker, the price Of pork has advanced
alarmingly for those who buy, and gloriously
for those who sell. or the latter class l see
many in our village to day, with faces jubiant
and gleeful. The crop is pretty large. as this
fertile valley raised plenty of corn to fatten
them and am glad to see our farmers realiz,
ing a good and remunerating profit of their
years toll.
The principal buyer. and only packer, Of
hogs in our village, is George W. vanneman,
who Is preparing to kill and pack extensively,
and will begin on Friday next.
Yours, S,J,O.

The Snow, AND THE BoYs.- The boys are
having a high time in " sledding down hill y
on the snow, wherever there is an "iuclined
plane" We would not, in common with our
older citizens, have any objection to this ezcitA
ing sport, II II was carried on with proper re-
gard for those who have to ride or walk in the
vicinity Of the sledding but we are sorry to
say that the boys are inclined to annoy, and
frequently insult, passers.by. Parents who al
low their boys 10 have sleds f" are probably not
aware that they are indulging in offensive and
obscene language toward those who are obliged
to pass by them. Boys, you should cease your
rudeness and II you do not, your names will
be furnished the police for disposal.
