Hicks for April.—A reactionary storm
perioi is central on the 18th, 19th, and
_nth embracing enoon In perigee and on
the celestial equator on the 18th and
New Moon on the lath. This period
p;o:nises to he practically u pro:ongatlon
of the preced:ng period. caused by the
coli l.tu:d influent -es of Mercury. Earth
Venus and Mare. The disturbances of
this per:oi will be characterized main-
ly by the sante kind of phenomena. On
and touching the 18th and 19th sudden
high temperature. with very threatening
barometer. and thunder. rain and hall
are most probable. Tornadoes are not
improbable in many sections central and
southward. A period of five days. tak-
ing noon on the tete as the canter, 1s
a three of great atlantic probability. A
casual watch of the world's telegraphic
reports will cahtirnt the truth of this,
and other almillar forecasts. Frosts,
and much cooler will follow this period.
