Does the wearher Repea, Itself

1t is predicted by those who profess to be
" weatherwise, if not otherwise, that the ex.
traordinary mildness Of the present season will
characterize the whole winter in other words
that the winter Of l87i-1s75 will bear compari-
son with some which have Sc long gone by. >
Thus an English chronicle relates that in 177G
the temperature was so high that the leaves
came out IN January, and birds Matched theii
brood in February. In 1880 the winter was
equally as mild, and maidens Of Colongne, wore
wreaths Of ,iclsts and cornfowers at Christmas
and on Twelfth Day. In 1921 trees bloomed in
the month Of March, and the vines in the month
OF April cherries ripened in the same month
and grapes appeared in May. In 1872 the trees
were covered with leaves in January, and the
birds Matched their young in February, as in
ll72 in 1885 the same thing was repeated, and
it il added the corn was in the ear in Easter.
There was in France neither frost or snow
through the winters of 1885, 1907, 1909, 1917,
and 1863 /; finally in 1862, even in tho north Of
Germany, the stoves were not lighted and trees
lowered in February. Coming to later dates,
the winter Of 1861 and that 1866 and the year
of the great inundation of the Seine, may be
mentioned as exceptionally mild.

Remedy Against Bursting Wats
Pipes.


When winter comes down on us suddenly like
a strong man armed, as he has Just done, then
comes the winterly-recurring, never-proyided-
against trouble with the water pipes The taps
like ill-tempered COWS, will not "let down. their
precious fluid, in the first bitter morning. Little
boys, such as the urchin in Punch, revel in the
'jolly go" Of having no chance to wash them
selves while house keepers mourn the improy-
idence that neglected to fill the kettle over
night. Then must the pipes be nursed with bot
ties of hot water and swaddled in flannels, as If
they were sick babies, too often rewarding the
coddling, not by a normal and temperate flow OF
the circulating medicine of the household, but
by discomposing squirts from orihces made by
the rending frost.
At such time, it is q seasonable
comfort to spy among the list Of
newly patented inventions one designed to
counteract this last greater trouble Of bursting
pipes. The plan is as simple rs great inventions
are apt to be. 1t is merely to provide space for
the expansion Of the freezing water by introduc-
ing india-rubber tubing through all the pipes
which will readily contract under pressure and
expand unharmed when it is removed. There
might be trouble, one would think with the pipes
conveying hot water but if this has been fore
seen and guarded against, the invention should
almost be rewarded with the civic crown a
least while the gratitude due to deliverance from
our present troubles survives,

school Taxes from COlOred

school Taxes from COlOred People.
The proposition to tax colored people for
school purposes, in the same manner as white
persons are taxed, has been entirely approved
by the Board of Education, but the form of a
law submitted foI the purpose, on Monday eve-
ming, was by no means satisfactory to the Board,
the just objection to it being that il undertook
to separate the taxes paid by white and colored
persons-in other words to "divide the fund.-" a
proposition well known to be distssteful to our
people. The Board of Education, however, has
indicated that it will cheerfully join in petition
ing the Legislature for the change in the law, as
to taxation, and in the City Council last evening
Mr.. Pickels offered resolution to ask the Leg
islature for the amendment This action pro
,perly comes from the Council, as it is the tax.

The "sober second thought OF the press
throughout the country takes calm view of the
Louisiana business and defends the President
from the vehement and malignant assaults of
those who desire to :" break down" his Admins
tration. With the exception of the. New York
newspapers, which in time of trial are never
trustworthy, the Republican press in all quar-
tiers of the Union is steadfast, undsmayed, and
faithful to the maintenance Of law and order III
the South, refusing to surrender to these at
tempts at rebellion within the Union any more
than to the rebellion which " seeded

We regret to see the unanimty with which the
press accepts the overtures of Delaware to fall
into her embraces The descendants of the
"Old Maryland Line" could not be happy under
the dominion of the "Blue Hens Chickens" ~
Annapolis Gazette.
No dominion about it, neighbor, but un-
ion. And certainly none ever stood side by side
in more friendly unity than the Maryland Line
and the Blue Hens Chickens in ''the days that
tried mems souls" hundred years ago. The
Centennial Of that patriotic association would be
itly celebrated by union of the Peninsula, 30
long divided upon lines that are unnatural and
imaginary.
