Tails, and the observation is allowed to pass
even BY persoDs who know full we'll that it does
not fall the acqulescepce being partly due to
the prevalence OF erroneous notions un the sub.

STE the clouds that produce it; but we Go NOT
see the dew fail, and its appearance is not ac-
counted for by clouds as the appearance of rain
Is. ior, 10 truth, the clear moonlight night, is
the very time when dew appears most conspic
uoasly, so that the early walker amongst long
grass may be properly warned to 60 out pro-
tected by means of water boots. 1t is the same
IN winter as 10 summer as to the circumstances
that accompany, aud, as will be seen, that not
only accompany, but cause deposition of dew:
but the result is different to this extent, that
whereas 10 summer the dew appears in the
form Of globules of clear water, in winter its
appearance Is that of hoar frost. Now, with
the popular-and, we must add, the very igno-
rant description of the dew as "falliug," to
dispose of 1t in these remarks, we shall observe
that, while the summer dew is not rain, neither
Is the wloter dew snow. Rain falls and snow
falls, and both are discharged from clouds that
are not 90 y visible at the time, but often ap-
pear long before the fall takes place, and give
us notice that it is coming. But the time 10
look for heavy dew, or thick crust Of beauti-
iuI hoar frost is when there are no clouds, when
