TOWN AND COUNTRY

MISSING FISHERMEN Messrs. EDWARD
nd DUFFY BoUTIN, FRED. LoHRING,
tAsPAR SCHUCKs, ADoLPH NIQUETTE, of
= Rivers, and three other persons from
annee, formed a fishing party at Bea-
er Island last summer and fall, and were
,s heard from about the 18th of Decem
er. THEN friends have maintained strong
ope tor their safety until recently, expect
ng them at home or letters from them, but
re regret to state that that hope is now
aiding. A small vessel was to have taken
hem and their fishing tackle home, and it
feared that she was lost in the heavy
torn in the latter part Of December, while
ome think that the vessel did not call for
hem, and that they might have been lost
n their own boat while making their way
rom the Island to the main land. Other
riends still persist that the nIen arc safe,
iavlng made the Island their wirter home,
nd that they cannot he heard from on
ceount of the bad mail facilities between
hat country and civilization Al of our
hope and pay that the latter pre-
-eption will prove true.
GREAT SNOW STORM. We were visited
Sith heavy snow storm last Thursday
light, which continued W to Friday night,
,aving our roads in an impa,sablc condi-
ION for several days afterwards. The wind
lew steady gale ali the time from the
'aSt, wlirling the falling crystals into drifts
the turning Of every street. The snow
ell thickly, and as it nearcd the earth was
cized and tossed about most fantastically,
fddying and whirIing about dashing into
he faces and eyes Of those nortals obliged
" business engage ments or other causes to
&c out III The street, almost completely
binding them by It's fury, and invcsting
hem with Sprinhling Of snow which re-
minded one very forcihy Of the ancient
ustom of rowlcriug the hair, and almost
ed bln to believe that the practice had sud
tcnly came into vogue once more The pres
= winter seems to be a season Of excessive
storinS, both in this country and in
Ellropc. The amount Of snow fallen in
his country has exceeded that of any win
cr since the year 1896. 1t extends over a
reater breadth Of country, and there is
norc OF it. Even in Kansas, which NAV
,e called southern latitude, tie snow is
wo feet deep. In Connecticut, the snow
overs the ground to the depth of four feet
Wisconsin seems to have The least Of any
If the Western States, for we have not
nore than one foot on level. In Eng
and, there was very large fail Of snow
lpon New Years night; and the weather
las been colder and the snow deeper in
london, than it has been in fifty years &.
