THE FALL OPENINe.-The fall opening Of
the fashions and of the theatres antedated
what was the real fall opening under the aus
pices of Jack Frost last Saturday During
that day terribly cold wind blew over New
York from the north and the northwest. AT mid
night the mercury had fallen as low as thirty
eight degrees. We heard of snow at Owen
Sound, in Canada, where it was four inches
deep; at Bangor in Maine, Concord In New
Hampshire, Worcester in Massachusetts,,
Rochester and Buffalo and Yorkville in this
State, and even at Philadelphia and Harris
burg. Saturday night we were visited by
regular old fashioned October frost. But this
frost will only have tnged the foliage Of our
forests with autumnal beauty. 1t will be
speedily followed by that most delicious season
Of our American year, the Indian summer, and
our unrivalled Park will then become more
gloriously attractive than ever.
