weather. mas been prancing around so for
the past week that people can't keep their
tongues still If they want TO- We have
seen two or three men meet on n street
corner, who hadn't seen each other for
four days last past, and work hard for two
hours and IA half getting the remarkable
and diversified weather of those four DAYS
talked up. We passed a man the other
day who was discoursing and gcsticulating
/ about fall, twenty-three years ago, which
| was somewhat similar TO this but much less
remarkable, with so much interest and ex
cl'ement that he was utterly obivious Of
the fact that his left ear was frozen stiff.
And he was so happy that we couldn't
make up our mind to tell him of it, This
Saturday is the twentieth day which has
been ornamental by more or less snow fall
and the result is about two feet thick.
THE RAILROAD OFFICES.
Among changes in the railroad offices
here we note one by which two small
rooms, formerly opening, one from the
General superintendent Office and the
other from the office of the Trustees and
Managers, have been thrown together,
making large pleasant office which is now
occupied by Mr.. Childs, secretary to Gov.
Smith, Mr.. Stanton, secretary to Supcrn-
tcndcnt Hobart, and Mcssrs. Jcnnson and
I5eardslcy, clerks. Entrance to the offices
Of the General Superintendent and the
Trustees and Managers is now had through
this room, an arrangement which will spare
those officials much annoyance and facili-
tate he transaction Of business.
THE SLEEPING Girl.
The sleeping girl at ilighgatc has awak-
cncd and her insanity is now manifested in
the usual form. She will be taken to the
asylum at Brattlcboro. If people want to
go insane why can't they do it without so
many prcliminarcs

fill the heart with bancful msgivings. He
had been suffering for several days with
that horrible i'll which laughs at the doctors
and causes everybody else to laugh at its
miserable victims-a cold in the head
With his mind unduly depressed and his
nose unduly illuminated thereby, he en-
tered the Office of the principal hotel where
quite number of strangers and citizens
were sitting and lounging and walking up
to the stove proceed to warm his hands,
which he claspcd together behind him for
| that purpose that he might face the en-
! trance and the company and lose nothing
/ of what might be TRANSPORTING. Then he
undertook to sncczc, modestly but his
| physical powers, already OvcrtaXcd in that
behalf, refused to carry his intention into
effect This made him mad, but he waited
Il moment and repeated the attempt, only
to meet with another total failure and fill
| his ewes with tears of disappointment

! known style, he set his head well back and
then darling it forward at precisely the
right instant. he remarked, "Cdtch-lOC,"
with such emphasis as to command the at

human voice, and, horrible to relate, dis
charged his entire upper set of teeth, the
whitencss and regularity of which had been
much admired, across the intervening space

went out on II fly and the audience gencr-

man himself dcpOscS that no human CON
sideration but Il base and Er0vcling curiosi-
ty to see how many whole teeth were left
(for which he now dcsplscs himself beyond

wild African elephant could have per-

minutes after that curiosity was satisfied
