THE WEATnER-The blessed rain has come
at last After many disappointments and much
vexation of spirit 10 consequence, real old
fashioned northeaster commenced yesterday
afternoon, aud rain has fallen almost contlnu-
ously ever since-a steady, easy, gentle rain,
that did not run off, but soaked down deep into
the ground, to benefit the gardens, make the
late crops, secure the fall pastures, and start
the mill wheels to running again. There was
almost a general prayer for rain last Sunday,
aud the suppIications of the righteous have
been heard aud answered.
