Beyond these dates cool and showery weather is probable up to the 20th, and frosts are likely to be experi enced pretty generally, both in Canada and Northern States. A snow fall is not improb able in mountainous regions. The neighbor hood of the 22d and 23d look, in the distance, particularly cool and frosty, while the 24th to 26th dates, on the contrary, smack of heat in many sections of the country. The neigh borhood of the 2bth is likely to prove stormy in Western Ontario and Western United States, the storms being, in all probability, accompanied by thunder and lightning and hail. Tha month will end bot in most parts, with threatening weather. It will be of interest to many readers to know the origin of the G. A. R., which was thus recounted at a camp fire iu Bradford by J. T. BISHOP : In the winter of 1865 and '66 a few veterans of the then lately disbanded army of the Tenn essee met at my office in the little city of Decatur, Illinois, to organize some kind of a protective association for honorably discharg ed soldiers and sailors of the army and navy of the United States. What is now known as the Grand Army of Republic was the result of that meeting. Post No. 1, G. A. R., was then instituted and received a charter subse quently. We little thought of the magnitude the organization would reach. I had the honor of being the chairman on ritual, and our committee wrote the first ritual used by the Grand Army. Post No. 1 maintained its existence till after the meeting of the conven tion at Indianapolis, Ind., in 1868, when, for reasons that were thought good, it voted to disband, and as I was then Post Adjutant, I was instructed to take charge of the papers belonging to the encampment, and have got in my possession the first charter ever issued to any Post.
