Old Time Winters.

s~ EeH4#
itn1664 the cold was so intense
that the Thames was covered
Nth ice sixty-one inches thick.
Almost all the birds persisted.
In 1851 the cold was so exces-
sive that the famished wolves en-
+ored Vienna and attacked beasts,
and even men. Many people in
Germany were frozeu to death,
lin 1895, and the winters of 1890
and 1899 were nearly as bad.
Tn 1909 occurred that famous
winter, called, by distinction, "the
cold winter All the rivers and
akes were frozen, and even the
sea for several miles from shore.
The ground was frozen nine feet
deep. Birds and beasts were
struck dead in the fields, and
men persisted by thousands in
their houses. In the south of
France the wine plantations were
almost all destroyed, nor have
thew vet recovered from that ia
tal disaster. The Adriatic Sea
was frozen, and even the Meditess
ranean, above Genoa and the cit
ron and orange groves suffered
extremely in the finest parts of
Italy.
Tn TAG the winter was so in
tense that people travelled across
the Straits from Copenhagen to
the Province of Sonia, in Sweden.
In1729, in Scotland, multitudes
ofcattle and sheep were buried
alive in the snow.
In 1740 the winter was scarce
" inferior to that Of 1909. The
snow lay ten feet deep i'll Spain
and Portugal. The zuyder Zee
was frozen over, and thousands
of people went over it. Aud the
lakes in England froze.
In 1744 the winter was very
cold. Snow fell in Portugal to
the depth of twenty-three feet on
level.
In 1754 and '5J the winters
we're very. severe and cold. In
England the strongestale, exposed
to the air in a glass, was covered
in fifteen minutes with ice one
eighth of an inch thick.
In It'll the Elbe was frozen to
the bottom.
In 1776 the Danube bore ice
Ave feet below Vienna. Vast
numbers of the fcathered and fin
ny tribes persisted.
The winter of 1884 and 'S5
were uncommonly cold. The Lit
tie Belt was frozen over.
From 1900 to 1872, also, the
winters were remarkably cold,
particularly the latter, in Russia
Which proved so disastrous to
the French my.-IExchange.

GEORGE WILKES in his last Spirit of the
Times thus clearly embodies the public SEN
timent on the Impeachment testimony: We
have, there fore, from the present standpoint
a pretty fair view of the general aspect of
the case as it will finally go to the Senate
from both sides. There can hardly be any
thing new adduced which can materially
alter the case, so far as the defense is con-
ceraed, for their answer, by confession. is
already made to the weightiest point of all.
We do not, therefore, hesitate to predict
that every vote Of the majority will be sure
to support the main charge Of the impeach
ment, and will venture to say further that
we shall expect to see that ma jor!ty rcin-
forced from the minority BY two CT three
votes moro. Senators may differ c0nsclen-
t;ously on the constitutionality OF pro-
posed enactment, but they will not be ready,
as LAWYERS and Senators, to face their oaths
with the deliberate vote that the Executive
has right to recognize law one day and
defy it anothe-, or that he has the right at
all, by virtue of his own imperial will. to
decide what laws he will carry out and what
laws he vii! repudiate. There is future,
desirable above worldly Office. against which
such voting as that will be found to he a dis
qualify ing act
