THE ALDINE, while issued with all the regu-
larity, has hone of the temporary or ti1nety in
terest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. 1t
Is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and
graceful literature, and a collection of pictures,
the rarest specimens of artistic skill, i'll black
and white Although each succeeding number
affords fresh pleasure to its frienos, the real
value and beauty of THE ALDINE will be most
appreciated after it has been bound up at the
close of the year. While other publications may
claim superior cheapness as compared with
rivals of a similar class, THE ALDINE is a
unique and original coaception--alone and I'M
approached-absolutely without competition in
price or character. The possessor of the volume
Just completed cannot duplicate the quantity OF
fine paper and engrayings in any other shape or
number of volumes for ten times its cost.
The labor of getting THE ALDINE ready on
the press is great that reprnting is out of the
question. With the exception of small num-
Der specially reserved for binding, the edition Of
1871 is already exhausted, and it is now Il scarce

Weather Reports.

We have heard MIR. M. Ii. Kinsley, the
superintendent OF the farm, speaking of the
agricultural department of the Utica Herald
in high terms Of praise. Some experience
he had last year convinced him OF the relia-
bIIity of the weather report" published
in that paper, so that he now depends
greatly upon it for wisdom in the curing of
his grain and hay crops. Though the sum-
mer has been showery one and the hay
harvest heavy, he has had no cut grass in
jured, except on one day when the report
failed to appear. He has never known its
representations to prove untrue. TAough it
has sometimes predicted rain when every
sign in wind and sky seemed to give it the
lie, the storm clouds have invariably APP
peared before night; so that by trusting inn
plicitly to its directions, he has saved many
load of hay and grain, which, but for its
timely warning, the propitious aspect OF the
morning would have led him to leave in an
exposed condition. An instance, illustrat-
ing the practical value of these reports, oc-
CURED last Monday. Mr.. Kinsley started
his mowing-machnes at 81 O'Clock A. M.
At O'Clock the Herald informed him that
there would be rain within twenty
four hours. Alas ! 4B acres of barley and
12B acres of grass had been laid low. 1t
was bright clear morning. and it seemed
almost absurd to anticipate rain so soon;
but he Immediately made his calculations
for shower before night, and bent his en-
orgies upon securing the grass and grain
which had been cut. He set one man at
work upon the grass with the tedder, and
sixteen others at turning the barley over
and over under the drying rays of the sun.
Every hand piled its implement with will,
and hy half past one every sheaf was IN
the barn.
lie then marshalled his whole force upon
the bayfield,, and by the time the first
great drops began to fall at ten minutes
after five, all the hay, except half load
was safely under cover. Some of the neigh
bors who, trusting to the feeling of Their
bones " and various "sgns" of vane and
vapor, have not always been so lucky,
begin to look with respect upon Mr.. Kins-
ley's powers Of divmation, for they ask him
now in the morning what the weather will
be. But he tells them to take some paper
which contains the weather report" anc
they will get their money ten times over
There are many other points pertaining tc
farming concerning which he obtains infor'
nation of great practical value from the
Herata.- Oneida Circular.

Water-spouts are whirlwinds on the
water. In their gentlest form they are
terrific objects to mariners on account
Of the possibility of having a vessel
struck by them in their swift and furious
march over the sea. In character a
water-spout is like whirlwind on land.
The opposing currents of wind meeting,
the water is whiried up in the shape Of
an immense tube, elongating as it is
rapidly driven along with more than the
speed of a locomotive over rail track,
till the upper end spreads out widely in
the clouds, resembling the conical shape
ofa tunnel. The apparent column twater
is really thin sheet with nothing in the
center but air, although Of many feet in
diameter. Such rapid giration on its
axis while running at the rate Of many
miles a minute finally twists itself in two
about the middle, when down falls vast
body Of water that would crush a seventy
four instantly, were it to strike the deck.
For many leagues in all directions the
cemmotion equals the boiling Of pot,
the waves dashing and fosming with
irresistible energy. Thus the thirsty
clouds are quickly supplied by the
amount of water vaporized by atmos-
pheric heat above, to be waited about by
itful Winds to fall in gentle showers or
deluging rains in the tropics.
