March WEATHER.-The cold of the
past two days and the slight fall Of snow,
rather astonishes some Of those in our midst
who, knowing nothing Of the climate,
thought to find March month of genial
air, buds and flowers. We have turned
back to the record Of twenty-one years ago
and culled q note or two.
Friday, March 18th, Is43, the veracious
chronicler Of the Nashville Banner, said !:
" We have another deep snow. It began
early on Wednesday morning, and continu-
ed to fall without moments intermission
the whole day, and until late in the night.
It's depth yesterday was about tlgelre inches
some say fifteen" Think Of thatl Again,
three days later, March 20, 1881 the same
authority said" We had more snow yes
terday. This is the longest winter we have
ever known il began on the lst Of Novem-
Der, and it is now the 20th Of March with
the thermometer ranging but little above
zero, and the earth covered with snow!"
The fact Of the business is, March won't
do TO ito to. lie is clustering old scamp,
and there is no telling what, in his caprices,
he may bring down upon US. Ia l843, not
satisfied with giving US snow and ice, he
got up couple Of earthquakes, and spread
out comet, whose tail nearly swept across
the sky. The Millerites-bless their simple
sOnls-prepared their ascension robes, aud
got ready for the grand March which was
60 land them on the " other side Of Jordan. d"
We hope March 90, does not intend to be
quite 50 exiravagant in his visitatons as
his predecessor.
