SCRAPS--
The weather, with the exception of brief
CLEANS of sunshine during two davS Of last
week, has been as bad as possible. Rain.
mud, cold, warm, thunder, lightning, and
rain again, make up the days Uf late. The
condition is miserable. Those who are not
barking from the effects of bad colds, are
sncezing themselves fast into them, and
Group, cold, cough. pneumonia, influenza
and inirmities, consequent upon such q
spell Of weather, is the order now.
