Several Of our exchanges are e'noting the fact
that tho present summer is remarkably des-
titute Of dew, and that, for that reason, the
nights have tecn unusuallr wA,m. No reason
ia assigned for tho c1tsac1dinary absence OF
dew.
Tho phenomenon is \ direct consequence Of
the light rainfall which has marked the pros
ent year, thus far, aud which has been idanti-
ics} in these columns and elsewhere with the
eun-spot exhibitions Of 1870. II ia we'll
known to mctcorologists that dew iz
nothing more than vapor rising from
the earth In tbs night time, aol immediately
condensed into water By the cold air 1t very
low altitude; it then falls back to tho earth
With An almost utter absence Of rain the
