Severity OF tac Winter.

The Oldest inhabitant Of prettymuch
every section Of the country Cffers his
testimony concerning the severity Of
the recent cold snap. Nantucket peo-
pie aver that it beats anything known
there for the last forty years. The is
land has been for some time cut off
from communication with the rest of
the world except BY cable. Vineyard
sound is full OF ice, and the revenue
cutter Samuel Dexter made 4 nine days
trip OF four miles in that region. Fish
ermen along Lake Eric have no memo
r. OF such ice as now stretches in an
unbroGcn field from Detroit to Putin
Bay. The entire lake archipelago is
frozen about. and teams cross tlcmouth
of the Detroit river. People who have
driven out fifteen miles from shore IN
the lake say that beyond the point 70
which they ventured the ice extended
as far as they could see. There is an N
