Come, n Spring,

ethereal mildness, come;
And from the bosom OF your dropping
cloud,
While music wakes around, veird in a
shower
Of shade wing roses. on u plains de-
sends,
has been the yearning Of all for the pas
few weeks amidst the ice, snow, rain and
chilling winds, in the words Of the Poet
Thompson.
Last Sunday the wind came from the
southwark and the mercury went up to
80 in the sun. The gentle breezes con-
tinued Monday and Tuesday and the
temperature went to 20.
The snow and ice which covered the
land and river rapidly vanished under
the SUMS hot rays. Sunday the ice
which covered the cove went out on the
ebb tide and by Monday night onlya few
cakes Of ice could be seen floating in the
river. Some ice came down the river
later.
After the disappearance OF the snow
and ice the green grass appeared. . On
| Tuesday daffodils came out in bloom.
Pussy willow has bloomed and after the
rain on Tuesday night earth worms
crawled out.
just as the spring poet was getting in
a gleeful mood, the wind on Wednesday
afternoon changed to the northwest and
pulled the temperature down to freezing
on Thursday morning. He has gone in
with the grounding for a few days.
This Friday morning the temperature
was 26. An inch of SNOW fell during the
early morning with a northeast wind and
it continued to fall until one O'Clock to
depth Of two inches.
