The WEATHER.-This quaint and
aged subject has commanded more than
"passing interest" the past few weeks.
The eyes of everyone interested in the
full resumption of river navigation, have
been turned heavenwards, studying the
threatening clouds, and vainly trying to
see some sure sign Of rain. But that
perverse old man, the clerk of the wealth
er, have given the rain seekers no soiid
satisfaction. With the exception of a
rain of one nights duration, the skies
have frowned but have not wept. The
nights are waxing colder, and the ruddy
beams of the household fire are CHEEKY
indeed; dame has passed beyond the
'sere and yellow leaf and with SILVER
ing form is awaiting her crystal mantle
of snow; the days wane earlier and
earlier; and in fact, we might well &C
knowledge ourselves in the purgatory OF
the wear, Yet, November has its advant-
ages, as we'll as its Thanksgiving. 1t is
a capital time to begin II long series OF
sitting up O nights with somebody
grown up sister, or cousin, or any good
looking, able bodies and amiable female
orphan. 1t is also conceded to be good
month for for reflections, the forming OF
good resolutions and the making of good
characters-by an immediate quitting OF
lying, stealing and voting the Radical
ticket, and we think that good many
have already adopted the last mentioned
resolution. The first great step in this
November reformation, and religious
work, should be to subscribe for the REG
IsTER. Success is then certain, and an
inward peace and satisfaction is sure tc
follow. But bolster up November rs We
may, il is nevertheless long and drea:y
month. Well may we say with thepoet
It's In November when fine days are few
And far Off mountains wax little hOarS
And clap n white cap on their summltS
blue;
And seas lash round the promontory,
| And the waves beat madly 'gainst the rock
And sober suns must set ut five O'Clock.
