WEATHER WISDOM.

Halos, corn@, etc., presage approach
Ing of rain or snow. =
Dew and fog are indications Of fine
weather.
Small inky-looking clouds foretell
rain.
A high dawn indicates wind low
dawn fine weather.
A light scud driving across hazy clouds
indicates wind and rain.
A dark, glowing sky is windy, but a
light, bright-blue sky indicates fine
weather.
When the upper clouds move in d.
rection different from that of the lower
clouds, Or that of the wind, they fore
tell a change of wind.
When the outlines of cumulus clouds
are sharp, it indicates dry atmosphere,
and, therefore, presages fine weather.
The dimness of the stars and other
heavenly bodies is one of the surest
signs of very rainy weather.
In winter, rain with a west wind and
rising barometer turns to snow snow
with an east wind and falling barom-
eter to rain.
Rain comes, as general rule, from
the west side SO that q clear sunset is
proof that there is no rain coming from
that qurter for time. Hence this is
Iign for fair weather.
Sudden rains never last long; but
when the air grows thick by degrees,
and the sun, moon and stars shine dim.
mer and DINNER, then it is likely to rain
NIX hours usually,
After a long drought the rainbow is q
sign Of rain after much wet, of fair
weather. If the rainbow breaks up all
at once, there will follow severe and un.
settled weather. The appearance of two
or three rainbows indicates fair weather
Tor the present, but settled and heavy
rains in two or three days time.
Heavy thunder-storms, coming up
with an east wind, while the barometer
is falling, do not cool the air we say ii
is still sultry, and there will be another
storm. The air does not grow cooler till
o thunder storm comes up from the west,
and the barometer begins to rise.
Snow can never fall when the temper
allure is very low, because it arises from
the contact of two currents of different
temperatures. When snow does fall
when the cold is intense, as sometimes
happens, it takes the form of small spikes
of ice, which originate in stratum of
clouds belonging to warmer current ly-
ing at great height in the atmosphere.
If, during calm, the smoke from
chimneys does not ascend readily, or
straight upward, an unfavorable change
is probable, with rain, simply because
the air has lost density, and is unable to
bear up the smoke SO readily as when
drier and closer.
If the wind shifts from south to north
through the west, the barometer rises
and the thermometer falls; thereupon,
in winter there will be heavy falls OF
snow, in spring sleet showers, and in sum-
mer thunder-storms, after which the air
becomes much cooler.

How Some Famous Authors Worked.

How Some Famous Authors Worked.
The fluent and graceful literature the
world admires was by no means as easy
to make as it is to read. Pope is at
firmed to have kept his manuscript
year or two for study and alteration,
and even then his pe;nter's proofsswere
so full of alterations that on one occa-
sion, Dodsley, his publisher, thought it
better to have the whole recompOsed
than to make the necessary corrections.
Goldsmith considered four lines day
good work, and was seven years In beat
ing out tho pure gold Of the deserted
Village" Hume wrote his History OF
England on sofa, but he went quietly
on correcting every edition till his death.
Robertson used to write out his sen.
fences on small slips of paper; and,
after rounding them and polishing them
to his satisfaction, he entered them in
book, which, in its turn, underwent con-
siderable revision.
Burke had all his principal works
printed two or three times at q private
press before submitting them to his pub
Usher. Akenside and Gray were indie
fatigable correctors, laborfng every line;
and so was. our prolix and more mag
NATIVE poet, Thomson. On comparing
the first and latest editions of the
"Seasons, there will be found scarcely
page which does not bear evidence OF
his taste and industry. johnson thinks
the poems lost mush of their raciness
under this severe regimen, but they
were much improved in fancy and deli
cacy.
johnson and Gibbon were the least
laborious in arranging their copy for
the press. Gibbon sent the first and
only MS. of his stupendous work (the
Decline and Fall'O to his printer !;
and Johnson's high-sounding sentences
were written almost without an effort.
Both, however, lived and moved, as it
were, in the world of letters, thinking
or caring of little else-one in the heart
of busy London, which he dearly loved.
and the other in his silent retreat at
Lausanne. Dryden wrote hurriedly, to
provide for the day. st. Pierre copied
his "Paul and Virginia" nine times.
Rousseau was a very coxcomb in these
mdUtOlS, AO WLOUO OA LILO 6he-OuS5SSA
card-paper when he could get it. Sheri-
dan watched long and anxiously for
bright thoughts, as the MS. of his
"School for Scandal" in its various
stages, proves. Burns composed in the
open air, the SUMMER the better; but he
labored hard, and with almost-unerring
taste and judgment, in correcting.
Lord Byron was rapid composer,
but made abundant use Of the pruning
knife. Sir Walter Scott evinced his
love Of literary labor by undertaking
the revision Of the whole of the "Wav-
erly Novels" The works Of Wordsworth,
Southey, Coleridge and Moore, and the
occasional variations in their different
editions, mark their love of re-
touching. Southey was unwearied
after his kind "a true author Of
the old school. The bright thoughts of
Campbell, which sparkle Like polished
