Some Very Remarkable Winters.

Now is the time to trot out paragraphs
about remarkable winters-winters that
have distinguished themselves by being
either colder or warmer than. the law al
lows. No well-regulated newspaper will
neglect this duty. Referring back to our
files, we find that in 1172 the temperature
was so high that leaves came out on the
trees in January and birds hatched their
broods in February. In 1889 the weather
was equally mild, and the maidens of
Cologne wore wreaths of violets and corn
flowers at Christmas and Twelfth Day.
In 1421 the trees lowered in the month of
March, and the vines in the month of
April. Cherries ripened in the same
month of April. Peaches appeared in
Nav, and little boys commenced to fall
out of apple trees little later. In 1872,
the trees were covered with leaves in
January, and the birds hatched their
young in February as in 1172; in 1886 the
same thing was repeated, and it is added
that the corn was in ear at Easter. To
the best of our memory there was in
France neither snow nor frost throughout
the winters of 1888, 1907, 1909, 1917,
1859; finally in 1862, even in the north of
Germany, the stoves were not lighted,
trees lowered in February, and outdoor
bouquets were showered on the newspaper
offices without number. 1t seems but as
yesterday. Coming to later dates, the
winter of 1S46-1S47, when it thundered at
Paris on tie 2Sth of January, and that of
1866, the year of the inundation of the
Seine, may be mentioned as very mild

EpITOME OF THE WEEK,
CONDENSED TELEGRAPHic NEWS.

INsPkCT0R-G GENERAL HARDIE, of the
United States Army, was buried at Wash
ington on the 18th.
1T was stated, on the 10Th, that the
Sioux Commission had concluded its
labors, and made report to Secretary
Chandler. Accompanying the report was
a treaty entered into by the Commission
ers and representatives of the various
Indian tribes. By the terms of this treaty
the Sioux surrender all claim to anv coun-
try lying outside the boundaries of their
permanent reserve, as defined by the
treaty of 1868, and so much of said re-
serve as lies west of the 103d meridian of
longitude, and as is included between the
North and South Forks of the CHEYENNE
River east of said meridian. The Gov
ernment thereby secures full possession
of a tract of country which includes the
Black Hills and is defined by natural
boundaries.
GEN. SHERMAN received letter from
Gen. Miles, on the 10Th, in which the
latter expressed the opinion that the Sioux
war is substantially closed, and that it the
Indians are properly treated, and the
treaty obligations on the part of the Gov
eminent are faithfully observed, there
will never be another Indian war. 1t is
said that Gen. Sherman concurs in this
opinion.
A VIENNA telegram of the Goth says
Russia had granted Servia 1000, 900 rubles
for the reorganization of her army.
On the night of the 10Th fire in Little
Rock, Ark, destroyed property amount
ing in value to 100000. A fire a few
days before in the same city inflicted a
loss of $4,000.

SOUTH CAROLINA.

The House and Senatorial Investigating
Committees, at Columbia, were working actively
and quietly on the 18th. There were rumors of
compromise between the Republicans and the
Democrats favorable to the latter.
Comptroller Gen. Dunn and Secretary
of State HaYne appeared before the House Com

elected that the Electoral vote was canvassed by
the State Board of Canyassers, ana made up
and couni ed from the returns of the county can
