NEW YORK NOTES.

NEw YoRK, Mar. 2I.-The CONNER
cihl Chronicle says: With the excep-
ton OF very close money market,
continued lack Of rain in California and
tho cold wave passing over the norlh-
ern half Of tho country, ACCOMPANIED
by snow in many sections, the develop
monts during the past week have all
been favorable TO the growth OF busi-
ness enterprise and activity. Tho Her
aid says TINT the agricultural situation
is critical on account of the deficiency
Of ram fall in California. There is a
possibility that April and Nay rain
falls will more than make up the def
cioncy of the previous four months, Ms
was the cnse in 1880; but the present
failure Of tho winter rain supply on the
Middle Pacific Coast and the recur-
renee of the phenomenon about once
every four yeats, may well revive tho
question Of irrigation, which was much
HgitNtOd in tho carly history OF Cali
fornin.
