Judge Siggios writes us that from the 29th, of October 1873 to April 11th 1874, there was a fall of 9 feet t inches of snow, by measurement in Youngsville. Never ' Vheiless there was less' sleighing than usual. Beside the snow there was an unusual fall of rain for winter months, taking it all in all, the amount of falling weather the past season has been seldom equaled. Warren Ledger. A T0aNAD0 4.nl thunderstorm passed over Erie, Monday afternoon. A man was killed by the concussion. There were no marks of lightning or other injury upon bim. Several buildings were un roofed. A church bell was swept from the tower and carried 150 feet. Vessels were torn from their moorings at the docks, td lumber piles torn up and dis tributed. The storm lasted but a few minutes. The March earnings of the leading railways of the county show a considera te falling off as compared with those for the corresponding month last year, al though the exhibit is a more favorable one than for that of February. Seven teen roads show a total of gross earnings amounting to (3,326,729, a decrease, compared with the corresponding season last year, of $879,57-1. The net earn, iogs have not, however, fallen off in the same proportion; many of the companies having reduced their railing stock and forces, in proportion to the decline in dusiness, caused by the working of the eneoey markets and the unsatisfactory condition of general trade. A movement in the oil regions for a "shut-down" on oil production for ninety days has beeo entered into with sufficient unanimity to augur exoelleot results. Such a movement should have been catered upon long ago. For more than a year the petroleum markets of the world have been glutted, and the produot has beeo selling at a ruinously low price. Nintey days of nonproduction will stiffen up prices for a time and re. lieve the depressson now prevalent throughout the oil country. Of course its effect cannot be permanent, and the stimulation of the advanoed prices will produce another period of exoessive overproduction but a shut-down seems better than no remedy at all for the serious evils whioh have so long afflicted tbs oil trade. Erie GqxUc. ihrre la a man in Jttimin county who prophesies eight more snow storms. Now this is something like; people gen erally appreciate a snow storm at this reason of the year. 'Those who have money Are troubled about it, Those who have none Are troubled without it." Old trench Song. A few days ago Mr. Chalfant, State Senator from this District, presented ne the Senate a petition which resembled a panorama. It revolved on rollers and contained the names of 9,000 citizens o the counties of Lycoming, Sullivan, Cumberland, Susquehanna, Columbia, Montour, Berks, Lebanon, Fayette. Chester, Bucks, Allegheny, McKean, Tioga, Bradlord, and Montgomery, praying for tho passage of an act pro hibiting stock from running at large in this Commonwealth. Williatrupart O. & n. "Winter lingering in the lap of spring causes a vast amount of dis satisfaction. It may interest the gram- oiers to be reminded that ninety-nine years ago things were quite different, and the complaint was that it was too hot. History informs us that on the 18th day of April, 1775, the apple trees in Massachusetts were in full bloom, and the weather extremely hot. The party of Butish soldiers who made an excursion from Boston to Lexington and Concord suffered greatly from the heat of the day, as well as from the warm reception with which they were greeting by the inhabitants Bntton Globe. The Registered Letter business. On the first of January the Postmaster General reduced the rate for registered letters from 15 cents and the regular postage to 8 oents and the postage. Since that time the business has increased over 100 per cent., the average increase in large cities being from 50 to 75 per cent. The present rates compare verv favorable with those of England, al though there are many difficulties in this country not to be met with in the smaller and more thickly populated counties of the Old World. The las1 annual reports show that in Canada the loss in registered letters and packages was 112; in Great Britain 20, and in the United States 100. If tho increase of business continues thougbout the year five million registered letters will be sent, against two-and a-half million last year. Tub Delaware 1'each Crop. The fruit growers of Delaware held a meeting on Monday, at Dover, at which the prospects of the peach crop were discus scd. It was agreed that the buds in Southern Delaware and eounties ia Maryland of same latitude, or farther South, are almost entirely killed, having been in full bloom at the time of the sharp frost of the 11th and 12th ol April. In Middle Delaware the early varieties are generally safe. North of Dover tte crops are still promising, and in Newcastle county, including some of the best orchards of the State, the buds ot all varieties are substantially uniojur ed. The prospects, therefore, up to this time, is good for an average crop, and th e growers estimate it at 2,000,000 baskets which is probably too low a figure. A strong effort is mak ing iu the Pennsylvania Legislature to repeal the section of the game law which prohibits the sale of game and fish out of the proper seasoned. "I was a boy at Braddock's defeat io 1755," says Jean Revore, of Bracken county, Kentucky This beats Count Waldeck and Captain Lahrbush; in fact, Revore is thought to be full 130 years old, and the oldest man in the civilized world. A deed recorded in Blue Earth county, Minn., on the 27th ult., the grantor of which, Catherine Mayotte, is said to be 118 years old. Of course she threads a needle without glasses, but she lays no claim to having seen Wash ington. An inventive genius in Rochester has constructed a "compartment bottle," which is nothing more than a pocket barroom that under ordinary cucum stances will not be prayed at nor raided upon. The bottle is built to contain four ktnds of fluid. She wind has gone into the crusading business at Brooklyn, Jackson county, Mich. Lately it took down an under taker's sign from its fastenings, and de posited it in front of a whisky shop, in forming passers-by that "Caskets and coffins were furnished at sb.ort notice." They convicted a man of murder in the first degree in Luzerne county recently, and he was sentenced to be banged, the case was taken to the Supreme Court, and it being shown that the man had only killed his mother-in-law, the judgment was reserved. The Rev. Mr. Kerns, of Clintonville, Center County, was chopping wood to kindle a fire when a chip struck him in the eye and knocked it out upon bis cheek. lie then took bis handkerchief and wiped his face when he found to his horror that be had wiped out his eye. A well-to-do farmer named Carpenter' residing near Woodbury, Gloucester county, N. J., together with a physioian, were arrested on Saturday, charged with infanticide. The circumstances as re ported are that the infant was the result of improper intercourse with his own daugh ter, a girl of fifteen years, and. to bide their shame, it is alleged that Carpenter poisoned it. There is much feeling, against the prisoners, and a guard if kept about the jail to prevent violence to them. OENEBAL N0TE3. Two heads are letter than one cspe cially in a barrel.

A soldier stationed at Sioux City received $3,000 two week ago and spent the last dollar of it in nine days, making one purchase ol eighteen barrels o whisky and giving them away to bis friends. While maipulating the windlass of a well, the other night, a party who bad been laying in a stock of whiskey before it was all seized by the police, let the handle slip when the bucket was half-way op, and naturally enough received a chuck under the chin that knocked bim over a neighboring fence.
