That Cold Wave.

The last ten days have proved the
sweetest cold tenn in many Years. Not
that the mercury has reached II lower
point than on many other wears. bat il
j. very unusual to have more than tive
or three days of such weather in sue
cc>>ion. On Sunday, the 10th. the
''cold wave reached these parts. and
the mercury has been below zero ever
since eleven days. After the first
week. when the mercury stood at from
five to Twenty-Five below zero ut some
time in the twcnty-i"ur hours. there
WIS an increased coolneSS. Last Sun
day morning. Wcll-rcgulatcd thcrmum-
,trI> registered 81 below: Mondav -.
Tuesday n. "Wednesday - below zero.
Had the nights remained clear. the
record would have been still lower
but an hour or two before day the
sky hazed over. and the mercury hegau
to rise at once. Such prolonged cold
has been fearful. 1t is impossible to
keep water pipes and cellars from frecz-
ing, and how those in poor houses with
poor stoves and scanty wood and cloth
iug get along. God only knows. They
cannot he comfortable: the wonder is
that they live. The scarcity of water
makes the severe weather more unen-
durable to the many farmers who have
to drive their stock IL distance every
day t" water. while the suffering of the
brute creation must be great.
=. S.-The mercury fell again last
night tn b degrees below zero. when
towards morning it clouded up. and at
day light it was but - below. This
makes the coolest five nights in success
sion the oldest inhahitant recollect>.
the Thermometer registering the coolest
point respectively at 30. b. %. - and
- degrees below zero. The drain on
wood piles aud coal bins has been un-
pIcccdented, while the strain on water
pipes and colscienccs has been alarm
ing. There is every Indication at the
present writing of warmer weather.
