The Weather on Lake superior.

We have little progress to report this week Last
year the river cleared OF ice on the 9Th Of April;
this spring It Ia doubtful If # is open by the 18th
Games of cricket we're all the rage here during
the last Of March, 1850. while the snow will now
average fully two feet in depth here, and more on
the mineral range that it is probably safe to say
that the season Is two to three weeks later than
the past one though there ts still time for an ear
Her season OF uavig cation than In 1857 or 1859.
Nothing but the almost entire absence Of icebergs
around the month of the harbor can save us from
an unusual freahet, should the river clear with
sudden thaw or rain, and those who have periEha-
BILE articles of merchandise stored where it will be
endangered BY such result, would doubtless con-
suit their interest By removing 1t beyond the ef-
fects oil freshet.
Perhaps as strong testimony az we can bring to
teamine, and the cold with which we are still SIR
rounded, may be found by referring the reader to
number and weight Of mRss copper brought forward
the past two weeks--26 masses, the averaee weight
Of which was 9, ,s12 pounds--Ldks Superior Miner,

be open as the les Is now from 213 to feet thick.
It Is also much better and stouter than at any time
during the winter. It is now showing. The snow
is about 3to 81z feet deep on level. We can see
the water from the Garrison bill towards the Light
House. The Ice is still below that point. was
up On the north shore last week The nearest
open water west OF Mackinaw Is from 50 to GO

Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-02-28

We are now living in the age of REBEL
ion. The South, not content " ith having
had the control of our Governme Mt almost
entirely ever since the formation of the Con-
stitutiOn, are now endeavOring to break up
our glorious Union, merely because rOr once
the power is taken out Of her hands. Overt
acts and hostility have already been COM
menced against the Federal authorities, and
where it viii end, no man knows.
If there ever was a time when every man
should take good newspaper, which will
keep him posted in regard to the news Of the
day, now is that time. Such a newspaper
! is the LEADER.
In addition to the important matters oc-
curing in our own country, the news from
Europe, for at least the year to come, will be
of stirring interest The heroic and patriotic
Garibaldi in struggling to build up liberal
and united government in Italy; old thrones
are crumbling into ruin-society is in a
transition state.
The great advantages in taking a Home
paper, like the Leader, over the Eastern
weeklies, are these:
Owing to our great Tslegraphie arrange
