decidedly wintry here in Gold Hill
and Virginia the last two or three
days, but 1t seems to have been even
more so ut Carson. The AppeN says:
Yesterday morning ice was found,
formed the night before. half an inch
thick. Damp ground was frozen stitf,
rs in December. Ii was so cold night
before last that blankets failed to save
the fruit on cherry trees. Pea vines,
hardy and tough enough TO resist ordi-
nary frosts, were frozen down to the
ground. OF course all the potatoes,
Squashes, etc, that have pushed their
sprouts above ground have persisted.
Ii Is a. cold rs ordinary stormy weather
In February. This Is distressing.
Crops must fail or be put back disas-
trously. May has always been = cold
blooded, remorseless deceiver. 1t
never was worse behaved than now.
That s.hole in the sun" lets in q terri
BILE draft of cold air. Ugh, 1t was so
extremely cold and windy yesterday
afternoon that the workmcn on the
Capitol were constrained to knock oil
about half past 3 O'clock
