THESE are truly the laIcyon days OF
the year, as old legends and supersti-
tious sailors OF to-day picture them.
The Kingf sher, bird beloved OF God, ac-
cordIng TO our foreiathers, lays her eggs
on the sea on the 10th OF December, and
for fourteen days calm prevails. The
sun warns her and the waves rock her,
until the young are Matched and take
wing, when the storms are let loose in
renewed fury. Plato or Socrates them
selves would nave seen a ship set sail
in this enchanted season with faith that
it would reach its harbor safely. AL
though we have progressed in knowl-
edge till there are nowadays no birds
beloved Of God upon the waters, and no
PlatOs upon land who believe in such
fancies, we still have this year the ver-
liable halcyon days, with their warm
sur, clear sky and summer-like at
mosphere, reminding us Of the times
when so much OF human philosophy
hung upon such superstitions. II it
should turn cold about the oath OF this
month, just at the expiration of the tra-
aitional time of calmness and pleasant
weather, the reminder would be still
stronger.
