So, we think, | those who fly this city to avoid the weather in the'winter ‘witl'in time confess that, taken as 2 whole, there is no weather equal to that of Chicago, “Nature provided four seasons. ‘We have these four seasons inall their perfection in Chicago. In aregiun where there is no suin- mer, or no. winter, or where the natural Brogression of seasons is wanting, something else must be wanting in the natural. conui- tons of ‘weatter and climate intended for man’s most perfect enjoyment. Chicago . Jacks nothing in this respect. She furnishes @ good square winter, not extreme, “but nevessary, with 2n equally ‘perfect summer, spring, and autumn, to fill the great round of seasous which are essential to man’s most perfect “physical existence. ChifCago. fur nishes precisely the weather which pertains, to the | patural and temperate enjoyment of these seasons’: Where else can ‘such weather insuch Perfection be found?

The male population of the Kingduus is-estiuutéd to be 14,000,000. ‘he Whole nuuiber of electors. registered at the last elecnion was but 620,000. “The wun ber of adult males must be at least 4,500,000, and of these 40 per cent: or 1,800, 000,'are able to read and write. “The ium diate effect of the law will: be; therefore;: to inultiply the voting Bopilution’: by) three.
