The Yosemite Valiey in Winter.
Snowstorm follows snowstorm, Winter
has spread his icy mantle over the Yose
mite. The mighty cliffs and domes look
down upon the valley as in the summer
months, but it is with forbidding state
liness and with threatening aspect. How
changed the scene and different the at.
tractions! The smiling vale is no longer
gay with gorgeous bowers ard bright
with green meadowlands; no Jonger is it
resonant with the hum of busy insects,
the murmuring lullabies of slumbering
streams and the joyous songs of summer
birds; zephyr ro longer whisprs to the
pine fronds as he flosts softly ¢ rough
the forest, and echo no longer repeats
the exclamations of glad visitors, The
Meredd rolls its swollen current impetu-
ously through the valley, flooding many
an acre of the meadowland-—for min as
well as snow has fallen; the woods sre
hoarse with protesting against the fierce-
ness of the storm blasts: the snow-slide
holds the beholder in awe as it races
with the waterfall in its downward
plunge, and slabs of talus and ix
chunks of rock loosen their hold of their
parent cliff as water and weather 'o their
work and are washed with din and bead
long speed down into the valley. It is
true that such terrifying storms do pot
occur with frequency, one such was
witnessed by Mr, H and his
family during the winter of 1867, when
they were the only residents in the val
ley. On that exceptional occasion th
rain poured down incessantly for teu suc.
