APRIL SuowERs.-H April showers do make May
lowers as is currently stated, then the coming
month will be peculiarly favored in this respect,
and there will be no lack of floral decorations for
the May poles. The supposition that April is COM
posed Of sunshine and showers, rapidly chasing
each other, is erroneous, for the god OF day has
been hardly able to assert his supremacy, and no
sooner enlivens the earth with his presence, than
his visage is obscured by the envious Clouds
There is but one class of tho community VINO do
not grumble at the present watery visitation, ana
they willingly endure the damp discomfort, know
ing that it is food for the young plants and look
forward to a bountiful harvest for the future, In
city the business men are seriously incouye-
nienced by these showers, and las few persons have
fondness for umbrellas, they are tempted to take
the risk, and receive comfortable drenching as
reward for their temerity. The dull leaden skies
we now enjoy are not what have been usually
ascribed to April, and fear that the clerk Of the
weather is in bad way, and needs reconstruction
or military bill before lie will deign to smile upon
District No. q. Poets are fond OF alluding to the
thirsty earth drinking in these showers, but if old
mother earth is not satiated, others are, and all
VINO havo any respect for their outward adornings
