The Earth, hereabouts,' ; was robed in the wintry white mantle, fvxp. "the first week in March. It was abroad j-pretly freely, too.during the whole of that time, from ! Alaine toMarylaud. In some places between these points, it stood twty feet in dept i n g "a m 6 n pr t h e p o or the coinmon necessaries of life. During the month there were also many melancholy ship wrecks. ':- , - .

From the 2d to the 6th of the -month- the mercury ranged from one to four degrees below zero. There Were besides this, from twelve to fifteen intensely cold days : during the month. 1 here was good -'sleuthing from Maine to V irg.uia.

The medium temperature hi 1838, was also twenty-four degrees. During the mouth; there was a great deal of very severe weather, and liad it not been for the Iceboat, which had then just been introduced, the Delaware would prob ably have been closed the whole month, j. The a v e r a ge t e m pe r at u re of the mouth at siinrise Was eighteen and a half degrees, which is thir teen and a half below the freezing poiut. j As we have said, February of last year was ah intensely cold month, but it is of tdcjl late bceurrenee "to require any details. The most pf our readers remember its eact character, JOU s. r' Nowrfor some warrjish Februaries since 1 190, and. we have done. Those of 1828 and 1840 are all that we; find which particularly demand notice ; we mean, of course, up to the year 1840, lter than which period we did not propose hi the onset to examine. I J 1 - r February, 1828, was an extremely mild one. The weather was indeed more like that of April than a whiter month ; the medium temperature was forty degrees. Apricot and peach trees were in blossom on the- 20th, but some frosty nights in March destroyed much of the prom ised fruit; t !

' . " i , The prese'ut February, as we have said above, opens rnost brightly, and we jtrust it may be a happy month for-all. The chances are that we shall have some considerable cold weather. ; We can hardly expect' to get through the) win ter: with such a mild atmosphere as has thus far blessed ns. . .We believe, whatever may come, our people are prepared for it.- jfhe times are a shades better,aud there are many organizations in Operation; for the relief :pf the really deserv ing poor.
