THE WEATHER.

We propose TO eApaiate orleHy upon
the subject indicated in the heading,
lust upon the same sort Of incentive by
which we are sometimes prompted to
write of the CopPerhead party y not
because We like it as present served up,
rot because we admire it or warm to-
ward it but because, like Democracy, 1t
yexes US and e1cites our disgust. Be 1t
recorded here that on the nights of the
18th and l4,h of June, 1868, snow fell
hereabout, some little falling upon this
valley and enough falling upon the adj
jacent mountains to give them the ap-
pearance that they never ought 10 pre-
sent earlier than December or later than
March. Bleak, cold winds and sky
that frowns dark!y upon the fair face of
mundane nature, characterize the tenn
perature and the appearance of the
heavens. Every mans orercoat, every
woman furs, eYerybody's pile OF fuel is
brought into as active use as though this
were tie Winter instead of the Summer
solstice through which We are passing.
There is 30 comfort anywhere aad our
world is chill and cherries. "Caxton'
and some other theorists predicted this
weather for this season and now II
has come, we suppose they will consider
themselves and be considered soothsay-
ers and authoritative as!rologists. But
ECaxton" predicted the success OF the
rebellon-so that, after all, 1t seems
that be has only guessed right once and
is not much Of prophet after all.
Well, it may be the stars that are kick
ing up all this Robbery; and if it is,
we have only to say that if Venus and
Jupiter and Mars and the balance of the
family of planets cannot behave them
selves with more decor lm they had bet
ter draw out Of the SYSTEM" that's
sill Ii may be however that the plan
cts are not SO much to blame after all
for the astronomers tell Us that the sun
has had hole bored through it-possi
bly, By the long -winded speeches on the
Impeachment Trial-possibly in order to
have its ERE apparatus repaired, but most
probably in order to have 6 place to give
this world a deserved roasting provided |
the November election developes a suffi-
cient prevalence of earthly depravity to
cause the election of Copperhead Pres
ident in the United States. Anyhow,
whether the stars or the caving in of the
sun, or both causes are the reason for it
we are being afflicted with the most dis
tressiug weather that can be remember
ed as occurring since the cold Summer
of 1916, when, in New England-in the
latter part of June, snow fell to the
depth Of several inches and was sue
ceedsd by freezing weather, destroying
the crops and producing great distress.
In that eventful year the Summer birds
we're killed in great numbers by the
cold and the farmers were reduced to
the greatest want. We state this remi
niscsnce for the sake of what little
comfort it may afford, and to show, that
bad off az We are, We are not in alto
Rether the worst fx that poor humanity
ever suffered from. But it is bad
enough, God knows.
