A few days ago. when the clouds were
gathering thickly and bearing every appear-
ance of heavy rain, we met our old native
friend Senor Don Antonio NJ pico, on the
street. He said to u.s. No rain--next
month mug POGO" The rain however came
aud very plentfuly, and Oh Monday after
noon rs We were walking on Market street.,
Senor l'co came rapidly out of store and
took US by the hand and began to talk very
rapidly in Spanish. We could not make out
what it all meant, aud so We called into
store and asked jewish merchant to inter-
pref for US. Pco said. tha, Padre IN San.
Ia Barbara had prophesed that we would
have drouth for seven years, or very little
rain, and that he, Pico, remembered the time
when there was SO much scarcity in Calitor
MIA, arising from continued droutb, that
twelve dollars would only buy very little,
and that he really thought when we had the
conversation few days ago, that there would
be a continuous drouth. But" said he,
"tbe climate OF California has changed so
much since the Americans came mere, that
can't tell anything about the weather. The
Americans turn everything up side down,
they are continually moving" (suting the
