Wiasry weather.

Yesterday morning was ushered in upon

through key-holes and up in corners as it
moved along. A steady snow commenced
falling soon after daybreak. Long before
noon the ground, which had been previously
cleaned and hardened BY a rharp frost, was

early sleighing caused carriage-makers to
shunt their gaudiest ''cutters" we'll to the
front, and furriers to display to the best adj
vantage their finest buffalo robes and other
accessories of the winter turnout. The
weather was not absolutely arctic, but the
wind had . twist in it somewhat like COM
