 The milder weather on Monday was really the first spring weather this month and was just a little encouraging, but 1t was much cooler yesterday. Peter Jacobson, the tailor, says the seasons work Is quite backward and on Monday he took in more orders than all of last week. Local dealers complain of the poor trade. especially the dealers in hardware farming implements paint and house paper. Many jobs of paint ing begun weeks ago are uncompleted owing to the bad weather.
 It has been almost impossible to dry clothes out of doors this month and many people have been obliged to stretch clothes lines indoors. Drying clothes in the house, however, is not say they do not do up as well.
 The backward season has also him dered the oyster business very much and the planting will not be completed until very late. Several vessels have, been delayed for a week in the harbor with oysters bound eastward.
 An uncalled for letter Is bulletined at Station A for Lorenzo Wentworth.
