With an utter disregard of nll meteorolog- feal propricties, and a contempt for the rec ords of the almanacs that even in tho face of its_previous excesses must be consldered reprehensible, the winter thought proper to ngaln nssert itself yesterdny, After treating the city during tho pnst five months to al- most i1l known varicties of snow-storms, it apparently occurred to it that something in th theatrleal ling would prove n plensing varlety. So, Instead of the - drizale, and sleet, and hail, o with hurrls cane ncconmpnninents, Wwhich characterized oyt of the previous storms, it Indulged yos- Jterday in that peculiar form of the uhe- ‘nomenon which the thentre-manager imitates so_frightfully with theald of n sleve tilled with torn paper, Urent, “fat, molst flakes, just fanned into valpable motion by the gentlo wind, floated down gently and set- led upon the muddy streets, where, after betng o monient wiite, they were lost for- ever, ns snow-tlakes, in tha filth which there abounds, Iu thelr melted shape they pro- vided n ~very superior qunlity of slush whose Insinunting power wmnde top- baots a mockery, and ‘éven Indin-rubbers n not perfect protéction, The only good thing that enn be sald of the storm I8 that It dia not prevent the street ears from running. Othorwlse it was, both overhead and under foot, a vile infiletion, and when it s remem- bored that yesterdny was the 11th of April and that winter Is S!omllnrly supposed to end on the last day of Februnry, the abjeet turpl- tude embodiet In the present prolongation of that season will be fully appreclated, It snowed from noon until after 7oand tho wuoden sidewnlks and untraveled streets were well covered with snow.
