SOME STRANGE WINTERS. SOMETHING ABOUT YEARS WITHOUT WINTER OR SUMMER. Warm Win Inn* aa Heralds of UiMUter. Oyelttnr* Which Hm Come In Their Wake -"<iti>w mid lee In June —Hfeortli of Old TlineH. On tlie decoh't pujje of Venuor'a "Weather Hu lei in" for January. 1882, was found th ■ following: "During De cember, 18-7, a western newspaper re market) that no, since 1837 has any De cember so iso i I (ecu known so mild, lawn grasses :i"e grow iug finely and dandelions are ia bloom, navigation is perfectly open." Commenting on tliis, Mr. Vendor says: "Now, again, iu 1881, we have to record u very similar state of affairs for the "lite month of the year." The St. Fun I l'ionetr Press of Dec. 22, 1877. contained an editorial of which the following i. an extract: "This remarkable weather knocks the Old Settle.- association on their beam ends. * * * Here it is the 22d of December, with the mercury dancing on its silver la-els to the music of At) degs. above in tie shade. * * * Ten boats of the St. l'.iul Boat club, each occupied with sculh rs or crews of oar-men, sport ing upon the pha-i 1 bosom of the ances tor of meandering streams—till this and more, too. i. the result of the remark able weatli -r which now prevails in Min nesota. * * * This is a fact worthy of being placed on record for the benefit of all coining investigation of climatic facts and theories in .Minnesota." The winter of 1877-78 is not the only one of exceptional mildness from which the writer has authority to draw. A WAttM CIIKISTMAB. The winter of 1881-82 was as phenom enal. as far as unseasonable weather was concerned, as that of 1877-78. On Christ mas day. 1881. the mercury stood at from 45 to 05 degs. above zero throughout the Mississippi valley, merging into sum mer heat from the mouth of the Ohio southward. The day was clear and bright, with wind south to southwest. In Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, lowa and Nebraska the farmers plowed every month during the winter. The lilac buds swelled into full leaf in February, 1883, in nearly all the states named. On Jan. 20. 188'.'. the best tested ther mometers stood at 42 degs. above in the < morning, nt 57 degs. in the afternoon, and did not fall below 50 digs, for over thirty-six hours. February showed twen ty-one days upon which the mercury rose above 40 in tlie shade, and upon sixteen of these the temperature was above 50 degs. sometime during the day. On the sth, (itli, loth, 11th, 12th ami 15th it marked 00 or above, and upon, one occa sion, the 12th. stood between 75 and 80 degs. for five hours. The thermometer responsible for this seeming inconsistency failed to reach the high water mark of Feb. 12 again until after the end of the first week in June, with a single exception,* May 4. when it marked 82. 1 mention this fact for tlie benefit of the render who may- think the instrument with which the readings were taken one of inferior grade, and, in conseipn nee, very susceptible to fluc tuations of heal and cold. Southern people who get nervous when they hear yellow fever mentioned in couuectiou \\ it!i the warm winter of 1877-78 can gain some consolation by watching the change which comes over the face of the western and northern man when lie i- informed that the spring like chara • I T of January and February, 1882. indirectly brought about the many cyclones and prairie twisters of tlie sum mer following. Many scientists, living and dead, the late Mr. Veimor among the number, believe and believed that warm winters are very likely to lie fol lowed by a summer of destructive wind storms. As far as 1882 is concerned, tlie coincidence is remarkable. A SL'MMIilt OJ CYCLONKS. Tin; t wisleis began lo exhibit that year down in Louisiana earlyjiu March, about two or thn e weeks after the remarkable hot February day. leveling several towns and killing off tlie negro population at an alarming rate. Next, in April, a prairie terror sprang up, all uniooked for, ia Rico county, Kan., traveled in a northeast direction, killing everybody in its track. On the same day three sep arate cyclones crossed tlie state of Michi gan, k'iliug ialliu aggregate seventeen persons and a great deal of stock, besides dest roving aa immense amount of prop erty. From that time forward cyclones hatched out like tadpoles in Jime. They were XV'jc, there and every place for a couple M months, doing great damage to propAty. 1 nit sparing human life, ex cept now mid ill -u an i- dated family.

Ili-nop. an old gentle- own, who lived at Essex, Mass., at the j time, gives the following interesting facta . concerning "the year without a summer" to The Jamestown Journal: "December, 1815, and January, 1815, were very warm, indeed, so mild that fires were seldom lighted in our rooms. February was also mild as spring time, with the exception of one or two cold days. March was cold and boisterous the first half, then mild to the middle of April, when winter set iu with ice and deep snows, which continued till June. "June was bitter cold, the coldest ever known; frost, ice or snow almost every night, destroying almost everything that frost could kill. SIIOW fell ten inches deep iu Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, three inches in the inferior of New York state and in a part of Penn sylvonia and Massachusetts. July was cold unil window glass throughout New England. August was worse still. Ice formed a half inch thick and killed utmost every green thing in this country and in Eu rope. (lorn for seed in 1817, that raised in 1815. sold for $5 a bushel." Not until December, according to Mr. Bishop, did the sun shine out warm, like spring, ii seemed as if the seasons had been entirely reversed. —John W. Wright in St. Louis Republic. Old Then and Now*. I am afraid that old people found life rather a dull business in the time of King David and his rich old subject and friend, liarzillai, who, poor man, could not have told a teal from a can vas back, nor enjoyed a symphony con cert if they hud had those luxuries in his day. There were no pleasant firesides, for there were no chimneys. There were no daily newspa|>ers for the old man to read, and he could not read them if they were, with his dim eyes, nor hear them read, very probably, with his dulled ears. There was no tobacco, a soothing drug, which in its various forms is a great solace to the many old meu and to some Aid women—Carlvle and his mother used to smoke their pipes together, you remember. Old age is infinitely more cheerful, for intelligent |>eople at least, than . it was two or three thousand years ago. It is our duty, so far as we can see, to keep it so. There will always be enough aliout it that is solemn, and more than enough, alas! thai is saddening. ISut how much there is in our times to lighten its bur dens! if they that lookout at the win dows be darkened the optician is happy to supply ihem with eye glasses for use before the public, and spectacles for their hours of privacy. If the grinders cease because they are few, they can be made many again by a third dentition, which brings no toothache in its train. By temperance and good habits of life, prop er clothing, well armed, well drained and well ventilated dwellings, ami sufficient, not too much, exercise, the old man of our time may keep his muscular strength in very good condition. —Dr. Holmes in Atlantic. l.oKh>£ on tin* ISriglit Mdc. Uncle Billy Dawson, who lived iu lire house where Mr. Crounze was reared, was a kind hearted man. who never lost a chance to hold out hope to the despair ing and sympathy to the suffering, lie was always ready with the proof that however hard a lieighltor's lot was, it might have been many fold worse; and his ingenuity at finding a recompensing gain for every loss that any one might suffer was a matter of local wonder ment. One day somobody told Uncle Billy that his neighbor, Thomas Harrow. Had fallen under the cars and lost a leg. Unch) Billy stood in silence several minutes, looking at the ground. Then, raising his ey*s, ho said: "Weil, I'm awful sorry for poor Tom, but there's some consolation in the thought that a pair o' socks'il last him twice as long a tney list to, and to a man as poor as he is that's a good deal." The next day Uncle Billy culled on the injured man, and to his surprise learned that Tom had lost lioth legs. A little disconcerted, Uncle Billy stood by the bed in sol. inn consideration. Presently, however, bis face brightened, anil lie said: "Well. Tom, if you had to loose one log it's a mighty good job that you iost two." "O, Vn vie Billy," said Tom, "how can yon sav such a tliingV" " 't'uiise it's true, Tom, true as gospel. You see if you'd only lost one leg you'd be t Ii in k i ll* about it an' worritin' about it all tW time, but now, you see, tlie loss of each one'll curve to keep your mind off'n the kiss if tlie other. It's a great blessin' you lost 'em both, Tom, 'stead o' only one," — Washington I'o.st.

AN OLD PILOT'S REMINISCENCES. What, Cap!. J. W. Campbell Haa to bap About the Upper Miasiulppl. Capt. J. W. Campbell, of Fort Madi son, la., a pioneer pilot of the upper Mis sissippi, writes thus about the past and present: "I emerged from the hazel brush in northeast Missouri in 1844 to take u first peep at the wide world be yond. Having been infatuated in early youth with the cat fish and drift log bus iness, it WHS hut. natural I should seek a nautical pursuit. Consequently I drift ed on Ixnird ail upper Mississippi steam boat and began lo servo as a cub pilot along shore lu-tucen St. l/ouis and Fort Snelling. The lirst duty of a cub is to designate the difference between fore and aft—larboard and starboard—and with brains enough to determine if the current of the river runs to the north or south. "He Is then |>ermittcd to enter the pi lot house and lake the wheel, while his senior lights his pipe, and 1 sting consti tutionally tired seats himself on an ele vated bench in the rear and looks com placently on. Presently, under the ma nipulation of the verdant cub, the wheel begins to spin from right to left—left to right—hard upand hard down; hestrikes with his clumsy paws at the revolving wheel with the awkwardness of his ma tured namesake and involuntarily his pedal extremities come in contact with the spokes of the inner circle of the wheel below, thereby illustrating I he re sults of centrifugal force by throwing him outside of the pilot house. "But after a few more experiments of a similar kind he becomes more skillful, and with less exertion guides the l>oat steadily along, and then begins his great est task by learning the shores that he may distinguish unerringly one locality from another in the darkest night, after which lie is directed to observe the fol lowing landmarks: 'Head of Island, Foot of Bend, Cut Bank, Willow Tow head, Big Hollow, High Bluff, Poiul-no- Point, Dead Cottonwood Tree, Tall Syca more,' with many more, all of which by association liecome indelibly painted upon the panorama of the tnind, and when they are recognized by the cub thev become welcomed companions to him in the darkness of the night—a warning sentinel by which be avoids the breakers anil reefs ahead. "He is now prepared lo stand a watch, is no longer dubbed the cub, but is en titled to promotion and receives the cog nomen of 'star gazer.' "It was ruucli harder when I began for one to learn than at present, for the country above Prairie du Chien was un inhabited, exeept by Indians and a few white traders, but now we have villages and cities from ten to twenty miles apart, with government lights locuted at every difficult crossing on the river. While 011 my first voyage I was directed on passing the iioad of Coon slough to hold her 011 Wild Cat bluff, where now nestles beneath its shadows the pros[ier otts village of Brownsville, and on as cending ten miles farther up we land on the east side of Prairie I.a Crosse, con taining then hut two houses. The upper one was occupied by a Mr. Mirick, used jointly as a residence and warehouse, and 100 yards below stood a log hut tenanted by a Mr. White, while the bar ren sand ban l ;* intermediate were dotted with Winnebago wigwams. "On this bleak ahd lonely sand prairie of the past we behold at present a mag ical change. The name is abbreviated to plain La Crosse. Instead of two resi dents. v. -- find hero now a population of over 20.000 people. We hear the sound of tin- burning saw of mills loss than a hundred yards apart for over five tulles up and down the river, while in front along the shore are millions upon mill ions of pine lumber and saw logs await ing to be towed down the river to supply the increasing demands of the great southwest. "In place of one solitary steamboat landing Ikto sopai-inoitthly, we see them Conic and go by tlie dozen every tvventy four hours, for more of them are owned in La Crosse than at any other ]w.iiit be tween St. lands and .St. I'.tul. and my companions in days of yore, with the fledglings of today, have organized a pilot nsMociat ion here with over lot) mem bers, who question the propriety of the government in appointing tut inspector whom they deem inexperienced. "Again we are under way, passing upon our left majestic bluffs Arising sev eral hundred feet above the water's edge, while upon our right we view for utiles in the distance the valley of Hlaek liner, whose pine limber has since added min imis lo the wealth of the piom i-r settler. After steaming eighteen miles farther up this rock Pound mountain shore I ob served pii.o ti'eos growing upon a ledge of rocks, anil on the (lie face below was etched lie words 'tleorge Catliu.' On viewing again this once familiar name, but bv me then almost forgotten, my thoughts reverted quickly hack to child hood's happy hours, passed in gathering gowles along shore for this great Amer ican traveler.
