nervous that the least annoyance put them i'm a

published a record, made up from old diaries of
the weather during the winters which elapsed
between 1s3 and 1852. The table gives the date OF
the closing by Ice of the Hudson river and of the
oTening of navigation in the spring. No gene
RAJ rule as tn the regular alienation of mild and
severe weather can be laid down from this table
Thus, from 1882 to 1Ias, there were four mild
winters; then, from 1886 To 1893 three severe
from 1923 to 1894 live mild winters; then a sue
Ce>siOn of mild and severe winters until 1911,
when long series of eighteen severe winters set
in broken only by three mild winters The
record would have been more valuable had the
warmth of the summers been noted, there is
theory that the average temperature is the
same for every year; that is, hot summer is
counterbalanced by a severe winter, and a tenn

INTOXICATING LIQTORs.-The use of intoxi-
eating liquors involves an expense, which. when
summed up, i positively astonishing. The old
prOverb "a penny saved is two pence clear, a
grOat a day is a pound year." is applicable
with great force to the habit Of drinking. TAX
ing the average daily expenditure for spirituous
liquors at 80 cents, a man who INDUCES will, at
the end of the year, have spent s1O9.50, OF the
interest, at per cent, on II S25 and at the end
Of ten years will have spent Sf,095. Comparing
this positive wants of money TO the sum expended
in the purchase of actual necessaries, il is COM
puted that family of five persons Will consume
in one year four barrels of -FOUR or 1855 pounds
of bread. Good flour can now be bought for a
q barrel, consequently a family of five persons
can be furnished with -four for a year for S2S, OF
-Sl-5J less than the supposed expenditure for
IntOXicrting drinks. Putting the case in another
way. il Will be seen that the money wasted in
one year by one individual who uses spirits would
buy -four enough to feed four families OF five
persOnS each.
