H1AwAr1IA, Kas, Feb. 1o.-It appears to
be the order of the day to predict something
about the weather, and trust that out of all
the hypothesis for scientific provision we
may come nearer and nearer to the true law
by which the recurrence Of weather phe-
nomena may be forctold.
The winter of 1s59-'6o was homologous
with the present winter as to the character Of
the weather phenomena, and l predict
that this general resemblance between 1880
and 1860 will continue to the end ct the year:
visited Great Britain doing much damage to
shipping in the English Channel. This storm @
was very nearly reproduced in time and place
by The Storm which destroyed the Tay bridge.
On Feb. &c, 81, and p, 1850, and on Feb. 20
and q, lsdl, the Channel was visited by very
destructive storms. ! predict that between
Feb. 20 and 20 the storm Of 1850 will be repro
duced OIL the English Channel, Its violence
and duration wilt Tor at least should) resem-
Die the Storm Of 1850; its period OF occurrence
and the path Of the storH-centre Will be most
like the storm Of Feb. 20 and q. 1851.

Cleansing the River.

To the Editor ot The Chicago Tribun*.
CHICAGO, Feb. Ill have watched with
attention the project now contemplated for
the construction Of lock at Bridgeport and
the pumping Of water ipto the canal, all Of
which, as far as it goes, meets my approba-
ton; but why not do it more effectually, and
thereby kill net one bird, but at least dozen
Of birds, with the same stone? Let me sub
nit to the consideration of the Mayor and
the Aldermen Of the city the following:
First-That two locks be constructed, one
ut Bridgeport, as contemplated, and another
at Summit, that will raise the water on that
level not two feet only, but five feet above its
present top level
Sccond-To maintain that level, construct
pumping apparatus at Bridgeport (whether
by steam or wind power) Of sufficient ca
ThiTd-To place suction-pipe at extreme
end Of the Ogden cesSpo01, and to pump
therefrom into the canal, which, when done,
thefltly, sickly water therein and its tributa-
ries will be replaced by pure water from the
canal below the lock.
Fourth-Place drain-pipes Of one or two
above such lock, to discharge at will a rush
Of water into all the city sewers south and
west OF the north branch of the canal, thereby
effectually carrying away the filth lodged
therein from the cesspo01s, and send It down
the Illinois River to find its way to the Gulf
Of Mexico by Capt Eads' jetties below New
Orleans
FIfth-As for cleaning the sewers north of
the canal I would submit that the erection Of
Windlnills is the cheapest motive power to
attain the desired end.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Feb. 14.-I hear reports /

sible? He has proclaimed that the rise in pa
per made difference Of 500, Goo year to
him, and that he could not be expected to

not reduce the size Of the Times, as he wanted
to lay over all his city rivals in the way Of
dimensions and superficial area Of blanket
spread; but as choice of evils he would
raise Ills retail price to six cents, and his
wholesale rate to four. After trying the ex-
pertinent barely two brief weeks it is cur
rently reported on the streets that the sold

and holy resolve, and dropped down from his
serene altitude where he had no competition
in price, and where he was monarch Of all
lie surveyed of six-cent subscribers. II he
was losing 500, 600 4 year before his late rise
to six cents, how much will he lose after his
fall? Since he made his raise the paper
