THE BLIZZARD or 1888 RECALLED.

There were some people In this town who remem-
bered that yesterday was the ninth anniversary OF
one OF the most disagrceable experiences OF thcr
lives The great blizzard occurred on March u
1885, causing the most memorable 'ue-up lhal
New-York has ever known The thought was not
wanting from some minds yesterday morning
when the rain coming down In sheets ana AT
such an angle that umbrellas were little defence
against It. that with temperature several degrees
colder the conditions of the great storm nine years
ago would have been furnished again 1t was not
an uncommon remark that Thursday had been a
weather breeder" Whether II was or not II was
an uncommony fine day for this OF the
year, suggesting April rather than March. As
whole thus far the current month has allied itself
with spring rather than winter, albeit the vcrnal
equinox is more than week ahead. However,
springlike days not uncommon In the early part
OF March. but they do not always betoken early
spring. on the contrary, by the process OF even
ing up" they seem rather 10 retard the proper
progress OF the season when the time FOR really
mild weather arrives.
