•'FORECA_STS.-Onand touching
the 2nd; expect a decided fall of the
barometer, a marked increase of tem-
perature- with south winds, cloudiness

ly teward the south. A short reaction
to rising barometer and change to
colder may probably follow about the

Quickly return, and from about Mon-
day the 4th to Thursday, the 7th,
we may look for return of falling
barometer south winds, cloudiness and
renewed steams of rain. The disturb-
ances of thiS period will' require three

the weeto to, :their disappearance in

ges from one- extreme to another are
chaeacterietio at this time, often with-
in an hours time.
