Death of Hon. VIM. H. McGilyery.

A dispatch received in this city on Fri

out OF the rear door of the house, making
some casual remark about his trying his

We have been waiting since last October for
Winter 10 assert Itself. but Spring has come
and we have had only >ma'iering of cold
weather. Week before Last we had few tlsys
composed Of sharp air and real New England
snow storms, which delighted the hoy, and the
stable-keepers while it lasted. Those who
could afford TO indulge in sleigh ride. were
out in large numbers and the various roads
leading to the suburban towns presented a
lively spectacle, for the gay turnou.s were MI
merous with their jolly parties, and the pretty
juggling Of the bells served a, an appropriate
accompaniment TO their merry laughter.
There wa. lots of sport on the Common for
the paths where sliding was allowed, were
filed with hundreds upon hundreds OF bow
aud a, many sleds of every style, color and
size; but now, although the goose bone pre-
dictions have not all been verified, it looks
rather dubious to those who have been PRAYING
that Winter might ''linger in the lap of Spring.
for the snow has all disappeared and it seems
more like May then March.
