Hicks, of At Louie, issues a lengthy bulletin on hie prognostics. tions for May, from which the following summary is extracted The Mre period 51 dietnrbanoe, which begins near the first of May, has ite centre on Jane 1611.. extending through July. Any extreme tendency in weather, or other meteorological condition°, whiob may exist daring the, early part of . a Mare period will, as a rule, be oontinaed ,hronghotot the period. The general rend of character of storm and weather conditions, throngh0b! ung and July may, therefore, beapproaimately foreshadowed by the °auditions that may prevail from about the let to the 28rd of May. Beo• bone at this time having an excess of storm and rain may reasonably count on snob tendeney during the continuance of the Mare period, A reactionary story period fella from the 2nd to the 5th, being prolonged over the 4th by the Moon's pas*age over oulemusl equator on the 515. A very warm wave for the season, &attained an• til after Moran of rain, wind and thou, der about the 4th and it1., will pee° from West to Beet at alta 11010. Obaoge to rieing barometer and cooler behind theee storms will be of Maori duration, A regular storm period, central on the gob, oovere the 7th to 12115. Tbe full Moon in perigee on the 815, end at extreme South deolination on the lith, will be bacteria in the remelting perturbs• tions of this period, By the 8th low barometer and much warmer will be odvauoi4g from t ha sot aitou d ed by daoidedl storms. From 9th to 12th a masa of &corm° will sweep moat parts of the country, progressively from Weet to East. Rapid °hang° to high barometers, Westerly gale° and much cooler will follow this series of emorma, and frosts will viett many centre' to Northern motion's from the 1015 and 111h. A reactionary storm period ie oantral on the 14th, 16th and 16th. Thie period is within Che Memory period, even by the 'Mercury brace in the diagram to reaoh from the 16th to the 26th, The Marg and Mercury dietarbaoco0 make it entirely possible and probable that violent etorme may appear about the 1415, 15th and 1605. A regular storm period rune from the 19th to the 28rd, This promises to be the moat active to vioiepo period in May. It is a regular Vnloanl4iriod, covered by Mare and oeutral with the eleronry period. The Moon ie on the equator on 1b019th, in apogee on the 22nd and now the o on 23rd. All th aocomb hie a t fined 8 indicate that low barometer, vary warm, humid atmoepbere and eleetrioal storms of marked severity will prevail at the fir00 and continue to the end of this 'period. Alltbroogh the oentral part of May there is great tendonoy at the storm periods to daily cycles of atorme, for ember of days in enooeesiou, breaking up me a role with a general, and very ometer dose not rise, and the wind obongo to Westerly and deoidedly gaoler, about the 00010 lime on the following day look for a repetition of the eterm, and eo on for several days, or until the changer; named 0000r, The oolmioapion of Ulla period will tall within 86 hours of midnight on the 22nd, The outlook for Ibis whole period to threatening, but we will Dame Monday, Taeeday and Wed, needy, the 21st, 22od and 23rd, as dan• ger daye, Should the normal obangee ore our, clearing and ranch cooler weather eboald appear about the 24th and 25th. A reactionary storm period is oentral on the 26th, 27th and 28th with strong probabilities that the combined Mare and Mercury W1(101108 will Dense prolonged threatening, if not stormy weather into rule period up from the prcoeding period. If the More period oomee in with an mesa of storminess, the period extend- ing from the nth to the 23rd will not only bring u deity oyole of rain, wind and thunder etorme, bat these daily stoma will hardly reaoh their oulmination and Dome to an end until about Saturday, Sunday end Monday, tha 26th, 27th and 2815. A decided obango to 000ler will spread 0000 the country generally at the wind up of tbeee etorme, The last day of May M the beginning of a regular storm period whiob wilt express itself daring the opening daye of June, We will say in closing that, under ordinary oonditiona tbe oaticok for Jane ie exceptionally threatening. The storm diagram for that month ahowo that the More, the Venus and the June artistica periods are all oantral in Jnoe. Extreme and phenomenal results may be expected, and the oonditiona in May will indicate tbe general oharaoter of phe- 0omeua to look for. A general max. imam of electrical storms, with many seismic and voloania disturbaooee, are among the pre-eminent probabilities. CHURCH CHIMES. Rev.
