Winter In ltaly-A Warning 10 lnvaIids.
The following letter appears in the

The following letter appears in the
Tribune: a
The rainy season of Italy is in the
Winter months, and an old resident
assures me that sometimes they have
sixty rainy days in Florence during
the season. In cities whose streets are
narrow and buildings lofty, rainy
day brings wet and chilly streets for
several days thereafter. On the I4th
of November last, rode into the Bo-
10gna in as thick snow storm as |
ever saw in New Englamt. This was
to me the winding-up of three days
Northeast rain storm in Venice. We
had so many rainy and cloudy days in
December, that / began to take note
OF the weather with the beginning of
the new year. In January we had
only twelve bright sunny days; in
February sixteen, aud in the first nine
days of March two. On the 25th of
February we had heavy fall of snow
which was carted from the streets the
next day. In that month the ice in
the still waters of the Arno, just above
one OF tie bridges, was four inches
thick. February was a cold month.
All the Winter long the. wind has
been Northeasterly, coming to us over
the snow-clad heights of the Appe-
mines. Anyone who has had expert
eEce in Italian cities knows that pass-
ing from bright sunshine into narrow
shady streets is like going into an ice
house ON hot Summer day. cannot
conceive ola more trying climate for
an invalid than this of Italy. If
medical man of New York should
send u patient to Boston to spend the
month of March, he would be regard
ed as insane; but an average March
in that city is more favorable to an
invalid than our last January in Flor
ence was.
The weather during the last Winter
in Vienna, Milan, Rome and Naples
has been as unfriendly to the invalid
as it has been in this city. Indeed,
there is no place in Europe that is a
suitable Winter resort for invalids,
and whoever crosses the Atlantic in
quest of such resort, makes grave
mistake.
am inclined to think that Ameri-
cans have false impression as to the
climate of "sunny Italy," and If this
brief note acts as caution to any suf-
fering invalid who is proposing to try
the climate, my object will be accom-
plished. j. SToCKBRIDGE,
