Watch for Six Fishes.

An old river man speaking of the flood
here the other day, says he has always
noticed that in looking over the almanac,
that a heavy rise ia the river seems to be
governed a good deal by the signs Of the
Zodiac. Where six pisces, or fishes, come
together, there is likely to be flood, so he
SAYS. Last year il occurred that way
within dag or two This year, by refer
ence to the almanac, it will be seen that
the six fishes occurred at the time of the
recent food. These six signs Of fishes do
not come together again during the year,
except in July, and they begin on the oath
Of that month 1t will be interesting TO
note this fact. Just for curiosity, and see
what the condition of things will be IN
July.
