The Stability of the Climate.

In a discussion of the question, lis the
Climate Changing?" by Prof. II. A. Hazen,
In the current lumber Of the Engineering
Magazine, some remarkable data are pre-
sented In relation TO the stability of the
climate In historic times. In Palestine
seed time and harvest occur ay precise
IL as they cid according TO records supposed
to be thirty-three centuries old. During
thousands of years in China there has been
no change In the character of their
cultivated plants. in the dates of breeding
silk orms. or of the migration of birds. A
record of the breaking up of the ice in the
river Dana. at Riga. Russia. has been kept
since 1880. A table is gwen showing the
dates In seven periods of fifty-four years
each, and the NEAR dates of the several
periods has ranged between March 10 and
March Is. Similar uniformity of dates is
sho wn IN the record of the v~intages in
Dion, going back to the fourteenth CEN
tury. A remarkable uniformity of the rain
fall Is shown by records kept from an early
date in Paris, In England, and in Italy. d.
