Weather RhylneS.

The old settlers of New England preserved
the old English rhymes and prophecies OF com-
log weather. Some Of them are curious IT not
correct. Many of them are so often found true
as to DO now almost considered lntalllble.
When the glow worm lights his lamp.
Then the air is always damp.
If the cock goes Growing to bed,
He's sure to rise with wet head.
When black snails docross your path.
Then black clouds much moisture hath.
When tho peacock loudly bawls,
Soon We'll have both rain and squalls.
When you see the gossamer flying,
Then De sure the air is drying.
A rosy sunset presagcs good weather; a
ruddy sunrise bad weather.
A bright, yellow sky 10 the evening indicates
wind pale yellow sky in the evening indi-
Gates wet.
A neutral gray color at evening is favora-
BILE sign 10 the morning au uufsvorable one.
The clouds, if soft, underlined and teathery
betoken 6De weather
Deep, UNUSUAL hues 10 the sky indicate wind
or storm. More delicate tints bespeak fair
weather.
A rainbow 10 the morning
Gives the shepherd a warning,
That is, if the wind be easterly because 1t
shows that the raj o cloud is approaching the
observer.
If at sunrising or setting the clouds appear
ofa urid red color, extending nearly to the
zeulth, it is sure sign of storms and gales Of
wind.
II the moon shows like silver shield,
BE not afraid to reap your field;
But ii she rises haloed round,
Soon will We tread on deluged ground.
rainbow at night is the sailors delight.
This adage may also be q good sign, provid-
ed the wiud be westerly, as it shows that the
rain clouds are passing away:
When rocks fly sporting high 10 air,
m 1t shows that windy storms are near.
ahe evening red and the next morning gray,
are certain signs Of beautiful day.

senator BdUGfd.

From the y. Y. Mribune, of Saturday
"The interview with Senator Bayaid
which we print in another column this
morning, deserves regard, both from
the high character of the Senator him
self and the straightforward way in
which his opinions are expressed. Inc
Senator is not borrowing any trouble
on the subject of the Presidency, but
it is undeniable that he is one OF the
two or three most prominent capdi'
dates in his party, and the one against
whom the least hostility is at present
concentrated. The Bayard family mas
rendered honorable and conspicuous
public service through three genera
tions, and its present representative Is
more than upholding the honor OF the
old name. The Democratic party has
no purer or abler man, and Congress
no more faithful Senator.
No one has had better opportunities
to Judge, and few are better qualified
! to give an opinion than the editor OF
the Tribune. OF course, he is not and
never has been of Mr.. Bayard's politi-
cal party, and could scarcely be ex-
pected to say more than he does in the
above.

OUT FOR Il THIRD TER AZ.
1ctirs Operations OF Chandler
and EdIn NHdS

The Washington Sunday Chronicle,
formerly owned by John w. Forney,
and lately edited by his brother, has
come out strongly for Grant and a
third term. After leaving the Repub-
lican party the paper was Liberal:
since that movement collapsed it was
Independent, leaning towards the De
mocracy.
The National Tatcutgcactr has reap
pcared in Washington after several
years of a precarious existence as a
Democratic paper in Fairfax county,
Va, and has also come out squarely
for the third term, to the disgust of its
late patrons.
1t is said that both these papers were
bought by Zach. Chandler, who il
worth two millions of dollars, and thai
they are part of the movement of him
and Judge Edmunds for a third tern
for Grant, as hardly any other reason
able explanation will account for thu
change in the politics of the -Ndttond

prove by the Postmaster General that
Mr.. Pease was good officer, and til cy
also say that he has his party with him

Gen. II. V. Boynton writes to the
Cincinnati Gdzette an interesting letter
about the records of the Rebellion. He
says:
Few had any idea of the enormous
bulk of the material which makes up
the records of the late war. 1t is stored
in more than dozen buildings, and a
number of these contain little else.
One of these is devoted to what are
termed the records of discontinued
commands, and, as this title indicates,
they constitute a great portion of the
field records of the war. This building
is forty feet by eighty, and is four
stories high. Eight ranges of wide
shelves run lcngthwise through each
story from floor to ceiling, and two.
thirds of these are packed as close as
any bookkeeper's shelves with i'm
mense ledgers, which are the books of
letters received and sent, the telegraph
books, battle report books, order books
and all the great variety of records
which were kept at each headquarters
aud regularly copied into these vol
umes. The rest of the shelves are
packed close with unentered papers OF
endless kinds, but each containing
some scrap of war.history. There are
$50 cords of records in this one build
ing.
