October 7,pthe Rev. Irl II: Hicks
completes his meteorological fore
casts for November, for his monthly
paper, World and Wozks, and BY
special arrangement the Atlanta
iJouraal gives its report Of the same,
The present month has attracted
much attention to Rev. Mr.. Hicks
and his forecasts, especially during
the recent seyuro. storms. On Sep,
TENDER Oath the Columbia Register
published the following forecast from
him..in regard to. the weather from,
October goth to the 31st, which,
seems to have been literally fulfilled:
AS we approach the. Goth, eyes
trained to meteorological changes will
note the gathering elements of ap-
preaching storms. Higher tempera-
ture, falling barometer, Easterly to
Southerly winds-storms The Goth,
21st and 22d are the days in the
period against which we would espe-
cially warn our readers, There is
noticeable tendency to storminess in
the region of the Northern lakes
about this time, and the approaching
perturbation Of Venus, together with
Other, cases, will likely aggrayatc this
tendency. at this time into violent
movements. The days following up
to r~eactionary movements about the
Goth and 9th ought to be crisp and
cold, with: freezing generally to
Northward.
Now, for November, we have a
clap oyer'' of the above conditions.
The storm moyements, says Rev. MI.
Hicks, central on October 31st, will
be in active progress the LIST and I'd
Of November, Ordinarily these
storms would clear tho continent on
and next to the I'd, but in the pre-
sont instance, continued storms may
be expected. Equinox of Mercury
on the 9TH, and Of Venus on the 9th,
which combination, with moons last
quarter added, assures active and
prolonged disturbances to and beyond
tho reactionary storms, due about
the 9th and 9th. Phenomenal flights
of the mercury will characterize the
disturbances of this period. Very
warm days will suddenly end in
freezing weather. Heavy snow and
slcot to the North, with hard rain
and tropical storms Southwark will
be natural results. Between the 9th
and 10th q, big boreal wave will sweep
Southward and Eastward to the
Atlantic.
About the 10th, mercural reading
will change in the West, moving
Eastward and growing warme in
their progress, eliminating between
the 18th and 10Th in storms of
marked energy. Rain and snow may
be counted on, storm days being
especially on and next to the 18th,
18th and 18th. Exposed Northwest
ern regions will not miscalculate if
they prepare for q very cold wave to
follow these storms, the Westerly to
Northwesterly tangents Of which
are apt to bring touches of the biz
gard. Cold, bright weather will fol"
low up into the natural reaction
about tho 18th and 10Th. Moons
first quarter on the morning of the
10Th will aid the natural tendency to
stormincss on that and dates touch
ing it. Cold will follow promptly.
The elements Of returning storms
will show themselves to the West a
day or two prior to the 23d, which
date is the central date of the last
regular period for the month. The
28d, Oath and 25th, and days next
before and after, will bring marked
storm movements of a decided win
try cast. Make all such preparations
as you would wish to have for cold,
unpleasant weather at this time, and
see how you vii. congratulate your
self when the time arrives. DO not
wait until the storm days. Then you
will be housed, and yourself and
stock will be exposed later to the
crest of cold following tho storm,
The month will end with a moderate
temperature and reactionary disturb
ances we'll on their way to the At
lantic.
The result of tho recount of the
population of New York goes far to
destroy what little confidence the
country had left in the census OF
1890. If nearly 100000, names are
left uneounted by Mr.. Porter's emu.
