YEsTERDAY.-Yesterday was a nice
one. IN. B.-Sarcastical.) For pic
mic or merry making or for frolic in
bayfield,, perhaps, it wasn't just the
thing, but for ducks-oh, it was a
healthy day for ducks! From rosy
morn to dewey eve there was guam
tity of weather greater than agreeable.
All the morning it showed aud all the
evening it rained. Last night the rain
freezing on the sidewalks presented an
opportunity for ground and lofty tum
bling a good many belated citizens
availed themselves of. We have the
sublime satisfaction of knowing that
when it comes to sitting down grace
folly on an icy pavement, we're in. We
" ere forked end up several times in the
course of our perigrinations during the
night. We don't banker after any more
such days as yesterday vas, and if the
clerk of the weather has any regard for
our comfort or feelings he won't sling
in any more such days.
