The Snow Storm.

The boys can't complain now of lack OF
snow. The ground Is white with it South
and Nortn. II lies deeper than ii has done
for years, and is dry and hard--of the sort
of consistency which means proof against
an early thaw. We take il that our coun-
try friends will be able to use their run
ners for II long time to come, and tnat
they will have to wait until March before
they again get good, fair sight of the
bare ground.
II Is the time of the merry sleigh bells,
and damscls and their swans will enjoy
the close quarters aud munling buffalo
robes of the cutters. For coastlng or sled
ding down hill the snow is of Just the sort
1t packs hard, soon becomes icy smooth,
and 10 boy Will complain of the tedious
journey up hill to get the swift descent
down il. The recess hour ia all too short
the diuner bell rings too soon, and night
draws its curtains when the fun is highest
Perennial bloom IL well enough, and
tropical greens are fine to read about, but
no Northern boy would exchange first
rate snow storm for them all.
Even III New York we now have snow
enough to make seghing with which no
body can find fault. II is unfortunate that
so few OF US may take advantage Of il.
The old omnibus sleighs are no more. A
large part of them were burned up years
ago and good sleighing la, been so rare
and Of SO brief duration that it has not
been profitable to replace them. So the
mass OF the people jam in four horsod cars
aud ride on the swept tracks between the
snow winch the railroad companies have
not hesitated to pile up 10 get clear way
Tor lhcns Ives, careless Of the comfort or
convenience OF anybody else. The people
Dear their trials patiently for they have

ances and they must get home or to work.

of what should belong TO this high dignity.
Itisa matter of congratuaton that Lo-
DAN is compelled to remain III Springfield
with setter and shotgun to bring down with
uncrrinp aim the WAGERING and he-itatiug
member of the Legi laiure. He is taken
from the Committee of the Senate on + &C.
tOra adjustment, where he never
should have been placed. There is one
omen OF his defeat to which we cleave
with hope and some assurance. The alco-
hole poteutate of the White House has de-
clared for him, aud deplores, for the sake
of the country, his defeat. Hitherto every
senate ial candidate who has been enfOld-
ed In his embrace has been stifed In the en-
dearmcut. What may be the fate of the
nation with ULYSSES and LOGAN in the pri-
vacy of retirement may be a sad ques-
ton with some, but we have faith in our
endurance and rocuperation. II there Is
lack of goo candidates for the votes of

build elegant Court Houses on generous
confidence, and they may be sure that the
fortunate name OF the lot Will be q

There is, perhaps, still faint chance that
