was the whisky charge, and that, if il had

The Moon and the Weather.

As this is the season when the far
mors are most interested in the con.
dition of the weather, we give the o.
pinion of DR.. Adam Clarke, an emf
nent scholar, copied from his works.
He says
list. If the moon happens between
the hours Of 10 o'clock Y. NJ, and
midnight, in summer, it being in tho
northern hemisphere, the probability
is the weather will bo 6ne, for the
space Of the next seven days. This
calculation is from aud between the
hours of 10 o'clock at night and 9
O'Clock in the morning. The nearer
the moon is to midnight, the fairer
will DO the weather for the next seven
days.
"2d. The nearer to midday or
noon the phases Of the moon happen,
the more foul or wet weather may be
expected to be during the next seven
days, and the calculation for this ia
in the space from 10 in the morning
till two in the afternoon. THIS OBJ
sorvation refers principally to sum
mer, although the result is nearly the
same in spring aud autumn.
I'D. Ii the last quarter Of tina
moon takes place between 10 and IL
in the forenoon if Ia the sumner,
there will be frequent showers of rain,
aud in the winter, the weather will
be cold and rainy, snow if in the east.
18th. The nearer to midnight the
full change, first or last quarter, hap
pens the fairer will be the weather
for the next seven days.
"5th. II the moon fulls at or nigh
mid. day, or noon. there will be snow
or rain in winter, and in the summer
months, very rainy. The space of
this calculation is from noon to 2 o.
clock =. NJ.
"6th. If the new moon is between
the hours Of IL o'clock, evening, aud
one hour after midnight, the faircr
the weather will be for the next sew
en- doys, but if in the winter, and the
wind in the south, il is most likely
to rain.
"7th. If the full moon happens
between 10 o'clock and midnight, ex-
pect it to be fair in summer, and
fair and frost 10 winter"
The Tiffin weekly tribune. (Tiffin, Ohio) 1859-1868, 1868-07-16
The DullnesS of Pleasure.

Without novelty or occupation
dullness will creep in everywhere,
and, on the whole, the men and wo
men who are most free from it are
those whose minds are engrossed
completely in some particular pur.
suit or calling, aud who have no
room for mere pleasure. Those peo-
pie, however, if not dull, are the
cause of dullness in others, aud their
society is frequently remembered
with mixed sentiments. Dizziness
must be taken to lie the common lot
of morta's. 1t is some satisfaction to
feel, when it descends upon us, that
it will visit all alike.
Itis some qualification to those
who have to exert themselves usefu!ly
to know that those who can and do
choose to enjoy themselves will be
pursued by this Nemeis. Poets are
fond of alluding to that epoch which
is known among them as the morn =
ing oflife, aud at this vague period
it is understood that young persons
never dream Of the dullness in store
for them. But this we do not be-
lieve. They have tasted it in some
kind even attho dawn of conciousuess
aud will continue to taste it to the
very end, This may be called only
another way ofturning the old advice
as to the vanity Of all things, the old
sermon with its metaphors of Dead
Sea fruit, and other rhetorical orna-
menti. Still the truth oft is brought
home to us with fresh force when the
weather becomes distressingly warm
in town. The efforts of men and
women at this season to escape their
destiny is so notoriously frustrated
that one turns to venerable causes to
account for the effect, if only for the
satisfaction of verifying the wisdom
of our ancestors. We need not, like
Mr.. SWinburn, reoapitulate the bur=
dens of every mans desire. If VIC
only confne ourselves to the burdens
of pleasure itself, to the burden o.
mere social pleasure. we shall finC
that it is load heavy to bear al
this particular time.--Loadon Re
piei1.
