country may prove interestiug, thin is
respectfully submitted to the IIeralt.
Since election, the all-absorbing tepic
of conversation has been the solution
of the Presidential question, but the
unusual character of the winter merits
mention.
Seer autumn tarried much beyond
liis usual period, and robb-d winter of
a portion of hla realm; but ths hoary
monarch at la3t asserted his sway, and
bound the earth closer in his icy fet
ters, lie forbore mantling the earth
at onte in deep snow and accomplished
hi3 work more insidiously and syste
matically. Day by day the Hakes fell,
and added little by little to the accum
ulation; but, never-the-lesa, the mas3
grew apace, and the winds swept it in
to ravines and fence corners. The
roads were died and barricaded by
drifta which were piled into grotesque
and fanciful shapes. Winter drew his
bonds closer, and the cold grew more
intense. More snow fell, and waa
gathered by the winds, and within a
month many of the roads were impas
sible, and outdoor work impracticable.
Thu3 by surprise, as it were, there
had accumulated at the beginning of
January, narly three fet of snow,
which is an unprecedented depth, at
that early period of the winter, as the
hills are then often nearly bare, and the
roads filled with frozen mud. The
Centennial year has been remarkable
for its meterological features; but this
Las not been exceeded by any which
ha3 preceeded it.
One of the peculiarities of the win
ter, h:i3 been the regularity with which
storms have occurred en the closing
tUv of each week. A carnival of storm
has invariably taken place on Satur
day, and a greater part cf the snow has
fallen, and the highest winds have oc
curred on that unforunate day. One
of the latter attained a velocity of more
tan seventy miles per hour, and was
traceable in its effect over a considera
ble titent of country. But all were
extended in their effects, and appar
ently storm-waves, which were passing
over the country in different directions.
Some came direct from the frozen re
gions of the north, and some arrived
from the same roint by a more circuit
ous wav, of the north-west, where no
extensive mountain chain intervenes,
...nd free passage is left them for the
annual inrigorat ion of climate. Oth
ers crossed the continent from west to
ezsl, and although tempered by the
breath of the topics at their departure
from the Pacific were cooled "by the
successive mountains chains which
were crossed in their course, and ar
rived little milder in temperature than
those from the colder regions of the
north. A storm is one day reported
from a certain locality, and on the fol
lowiag a repetition follows from an
other in the advancing track, repeti
tion succe I reretition, until the trace
is lest in the ocean. A comparative
calm follows, and freezing humanity
once more recovers its cheerful tene;
but the succeeding wfek brings its in
evitable storm, and cheerfulness gives
place to murmuring discontent.
Storm-waves from the wet can be
traced long distances by reports from
dlilerent places in their line of pro
gress. On the Pacific coast they are
surcharged with moisture, and accom
panied with rain ; but in the passage
over the Seirra Nevada Mountains,
their temperature is greatly reduced,
and they part with considerable mois
ture in the form of snovr. They puffer
further reductions of temperature in
passage of succeeding ranges of snow
capped mountains, and at the summit
of the Rocky mountains attain that
freezing character which readers them
so disagreeable farther cast. They are
heralded by an increasing arc of driv
ing snow, dark at the base with a light
er border above, enveloping the moun
tains and rising gradually higher abave
their crests. The sun shines brightly,
the heavens are unclouded, nothing for
bodes the storm but the ominous arc.
"When the arc ha3 attained a height of
nearly 45, the suppressed roar of rush
ing winds is heaid. Nearer the storm
advances, and louder it is heard, until
it suJdenly bursts fortlr in all its fury.
The blinding snow from the summit,
and intermediate country is precipitated
upon the mountain regions below, and
driven through the air, scarch'ng out
smallest crevices, until it is deposited
in inaccessible places. The winds
TBweep through the gorg?s and over the
crests of dividing ridges, varied only by
occasional gusts of increased power,
as if a portion had evidently escaped
from temporary confinement in some
mountain gorge. U rival is hurled into
the air, and soil swept away. Wagons
are evcrturned and trees prostrated.
Hat still it rushes onward toward the
rising sun. It retards the movement
of trains upon the plain?, and drives
the frontiersmen within doors. Re
ports of iti progress arrive successive
ly from the Missouri, the Mississippi,
and the Ohio valleys. Onward it
moves over the hills and vales of the
Atlantic States, and at last the ocean
is lashed into surging foam by the blast
which has traversed the ccntiuent from
hoie to shore, two or three week3
from its rise in the west. Such is a
htorra, which is often extended in its
effects over the widest extent of coun
try. Concluded next week

Uxiox Mills, Neb, Jan. 22d, '77.
MisTEit IIe-zald: We saw in your
last number that some one lias been
kicking just because he has the hopper
smasher to do Jit with. Now we think
tliat gent misconstrued the meaning of
the letter; I think it wa3 ment for our
famley.
My father 1ki3 two sons and I want it
distinctly understood that we are each
other's brothers. Tobias is the name
of one IJinnchis is the other, (thats me.)
Now there is nothin small about me
but my feet; they haint a foot.
Tobias has an awful understanding
he thinks of taking a government con
tract if there is any action taken against
the hoppers. I think he will succeed.
He went to Merges to get a pair of
boots; first he tried on a No.' 8; it
wouldnt go; then a No. 14 that was
the.bige.st but it wouldnt go; then
Pett sol out the box it wouldnt go eith
er. Peet told him to come back and
leave his measure some day when he
hail all day to devote to measuring, and
next summer he would rent the poor
farm and make him a pair.
Yours, &c.,
Doctor ISianciiis.
GEOGRAPHICAL PUZZLE.
Winter had come with its ice storms
and snow. The wind was a lake in
the Argentine Confederation and ma
king a terrible Lalte in New York.
While all without was a Cope west of
Alaska and all at home was in a
town in Utah and a ricer of New
Britain. My Father was a Point
west cf Newfoundland and a bay
south of Newfoundland had followed
me from my birth. My parents had
consented to the toicn in Ohio be
tween a wealthy City of Wi.t'-onsin
and myself, which was to take place
'.hat day. .1 Fort in the Indian Terri
tory came to discourse sweet music,
a City in Rhode Island smiled, and
all was a Lake in New York. As we
started upon our journey to cur new
home, a pet town in. Jlichtgin lut
tered a sweet good bye. Soon after we
were Settled nl?icer in Oregon in
disguise came and begged us to lodge
him over night. Riing pleased with
his looks we assented, putting him on
a town in Illinois with ourselves,
which act showed no River in Mon
tana on our part. He proved full of
the Lake in Iowa of the Lake in
Dakota. The next day he, thanking us
for our hospitali y left, and we soon
missed a' gold watch my husband had
taken in a Lake of Ontario and a
favorite but Luke in New York
cam. I also missed some Islands of
Oceanica This was a town of Michi
gan dashed upon our peace, for a
while, but we bid a town 'in Ohio
to anything like depression of our spir
its. Ere the winter was gone by, many
a River in Prussia we had. But
when the Lake of Canada were
dressed in Mountains of Vermont,
and the Robins were beginning to obey
the instincts to -a town on the Hud
son, my husband.a man of a town in
Missouri was a sea of Palestine
and I was left alone. Akolf.

Peer Mr. liditur We wuz rendia in
yer last week's paper, (step-uncle and
I wuz,) at least he wuz a readin and I
wuz pirttin' away the supper dishes,
and we see there how it amoze "Drtsey"
that so few writ to the -Letter
All at w 11 use I sez to Step-Uncl, (lie
is my Step-Uncle on my mother's sid.-,
she never havin' no bruthers ov her
own.) sez I 'Step-Uncle, I'm a gcin' to
write and back up that Miss Uetsey"
sez I, wipin' my bands on the. wrong
side uv my kkchen apron to apeer cool,
fur I knowed rite away he'd be sure to
say somethin' agen it, as he's always on
the other side ov everythin' ye can
mention. Siep-Uncle gev a jump sure
enuff, and droped the paper he had ben
a holdin so iovin like, and he tuk off
his glasses an guv me a look, (and tru
ly. Mistt-r Kditur. it beats all. the look
that man is capable ov givin and.es
peshly to his step nicer. I get them
looks at every turn till I've offen wish
ed that Step-Uncle would lose his eyes
indeed I hev, wicked as it is, only I
know he'd turn his nose or some other
liniment to do duty in their stead, so
it would'nt make any difference,) well,
as I sed, he tuk cfl his glasses and wav
in them round as if they was some
kind of a magic wand that he'd like to
turn me into a frozen potato or some
suc h kind of a fruit with, Sez he "So
phiar dont be a fool!' and I kin tell
the Letter boxes friends it aint such a
awful plesent thing to hev thet yelled
at you at evry turn as Step-Uncle is
always reddy to do) and sez he "Sophi
ar. dor.t ye kno ut.et ye never bed no
school in to signify," sez he, "and hev'nt
1 told ye oSen and offen (beetin time
with his glasses in the air) that larnin
was a labbyrinth? Then I guv him
back a look to match his'n and I sez
"and what's a lanbyrinth V" I see in a
minit he was tuk aback, fur he picked
up the paper offen the fieor and folded
it up and then the way he used his
handkercher!"My goodness! Sez he,
arter a good deal of wigglin (as he saw
I was waitin to be answered) sez he:
Gal, a labbyrinth is a sort ov a whirl
imagig that ye cant 2nd yer way out
cft,"aez lie, "youre always a wantin to
know things ye cant nuderstan and
yer the most sot ov any ov yer sect" sez
he, "and I sec by the Marin ov yer eye
that yer set to writin to thet Letter
Box and yed ruther hev yer eye teeth
pulled this minit," sez he, fa bobbin his
hed till I look I fur it to drop off) than
to think you could'nt write." then
he gave a kind ov a snoit. ' Th?t made
me mad and sez I a glarin at him
"what if I hev a hankerin after writin ?
Id like to know" sez I fgeltin over to
be handy to the door) "if you want a
braggin un ot Ilencry Clay butause i
hed rather write than be President,"
sez I "and when the editur ov our town
invites the young folkes to write and
they need backin up I aint. a burtin
anybody if I help incurridge them, the
beiu a gal as never had the blessin ov
no schoolin as they orter be thankful
fur thet hes," and I walked off with an
answerin snort to hisn. While I am a
ponderin bow to make this letter short
Step Uncle is a lookin at me and actin'
as if be was tuk bad with the Newral
igy in his head and hands, but as I kno
ha never has nothiu in his hed (but a
bad cold on his nose sometimes) I just
bet a new nickel h?s wrathy. Mebbe
Mi?s Betsey, or some ov yer friends,
bein as she seems a kindly person,
would make me easy in mind as to the
"labbyrinth" and whether Mister Hen
ery Clay ever said hed rathur write
then" be President, 'fur to tell the truth
1 dont more'n half believe Step Uncle
knows. Your very resptable,

Last week the Poat publisded the
first verse of an alleged poem on Great
Eastern. As anothei genius has brok
en out badly on the other side of the
question, the front end of his product

ho scores very fast.
I will match your Great Eastern, two miles and
repeat.
Take a thousand to three, he !in't win a heat ;
Make the same race to wagons, the best three
in five.
Provided, however, the. owners shall Uiive.
It costs less than a cent a day to take
a weekly paper less than a diligent
hen Would earn in a week at the mark
et price of eggs ; less than the barber
would charge by the year to keep one's
hair trimmed ; less than an energetic
kitchen girl will waste in a week A
penny a day may be saved in many a
way better than by stepping your coun

Charles A. Dana.
An exchange says that when Chas.
A. Dana is from home. John Swinton
is the responsible man of the New York
Sun. But the responsibiliiy of John
Swinton must be exceedingly light, as
Dana is se!:lom,if ever away from New
York. So tangled up is lie in various
indictments for libel, that he finds it
inconvenient to travel about much.
For this reason Mr. Dana lost a varia
ble opportunity an opportunitycflVr
ed but once in a hundred years of vis
iting the Centennial.
Few people believe they are cut out
