NEW ENGLAND's CLIMATE.
There Has Been No Appreciable Chan ge in
Century.
From lie Monty Weather Revew. J

From tie Monty Weather Revew.)
A correspondent. in Northfeld, Mass,
desires our gopinion' on the question,
"Were the winters off50, go, or 70 years
ago much colder, or were the snowfalls
deeper than at present? The opinion is
widely held that the W inters were colder
and the snowfalls deeper, but can find
nothing to warrant the belief except that
in the first part of the century a much
larger percentage of the population lived
in the hill towns or in the interior, which
are both colder than the valley or the
coast towns"
On the general question as to apprecia-
BILE changes in climate the editors opin-
ion is that there has been no such change
In any respect whatever so far as meteoro
logy proper is concerned. If we divide
our records of ssthe weather recorded IN
North America since the days OF Column
bus into two periods, namely, before ana
aftersthe year 1900, we shall find that
every popularity, such as remarKapie
storms, winds, rains, floods, 1rosts, etG.,
recorded in the current century can Dc
matched by a corresponding remarkable
event before the year $500. Inc popular
Impressions alluded to by our corraspon-
dent result almost entirely from the I'M
perfections of our records and especially
of our memories There is a large class
of persons whose habits of thought are SO
crude that when they experience any very
remarkable weather they jump to tne
conclusion that the climate has changed,
forgetting that they themselves have nad
such limited personal experience tnat
they are not fair Judges OF the weatner
over the whole country or of the climate
of century.
Our correspondent seems to Suggest
that certain change in the habits OF
the people, such as the removal from tne
interior to the coast, or from forests TO
prairies, or from country to city, or vice
versa. will account for widespread errors
in respect to the climate. The suggestion
is excellent, but the editor would be H.
clined to interpret the phenomenon some
what differently. The general movement
of the population in the past century has
been from the Atlantic states westward,
and from the country to the city, or quite
opposite to the movements suggested by
our correspondent. In fact, we lind no
real agreement in the SO called popular
traditions. with regard to the weather.
We have met with quite as many persons
who think the winters are more severe
as with those who think the winters are
less severe than formerly. Everything
seems to depend on how and where the
toldest inhabitants lived when he was
a boy as compared with his present con-
dition. The average climate of Now En- g
land, SO far as the weather is concerned,
has not appreciably kchanged since the
days when her oldest forest trees were
young saplings.
