CITY ITEMS.


dsy pea.y all day and part Of the night the rain fell
before a cold north east wind. Thursdsy was
cloudy but more mild Thursday night was
psr,Iy cloudy. with a little rain. Friday morn
ing the clouds looked so moist that people
went out with umbrellas, but had occasion to
use them except in protection against the sum- which
cane out clear and warm, and every growing thing
gave smiling evidence Of gadness thereat We have
never seen the country look fowery in May
than it does at this time. In this vicinity the abund
ant crop Of apple blossoms is already falling. The
rye is heading cut. Early is coming forward,
and early potatoes have been once hoed. All sorts Of
Spring vegetables are forward and abundant at mod
crate prices, in market. Pastures in fine cond-
ton, and the new butter that we begin to get is gold
en- coored and deHcously sweet. The grass looks
much more fresh than it did before the rain which,
although it was cold, was much wanted, and did not
affect the earth much it did the people, because
the ground was well charged with caOric from the
previous very hot days and the rain now being fol-
owed by such warm weather, will do the world
world Of good. Perhaps no man at the middle Of
May ever saw vegetation more forward around New.
York.
