But there have been fires, big and little, all over the country, some mounting up into the hundreds ct thousands in the value of property desttoytd, and in many Of them there have been one or two or three lives lost. Fire aud obildren have usually been tfce victims.

That the excessive cold weathi should bj characterized by numerous fires is a natural result and just what was to be expected.

Probably ail the fruit has been killed— it always at this time of the year in the estimation of all people who are sposed to look at human affairs through glasses of sombre hue. Wherever a paiticularly melancholy individual is found the discovery will be made that not only the buds, on which reliance was to be placed Tor the season's fruit, but the trees themselves have been silled. Ihis is especially trueot a fruit called the peach, which grows, it is said, on a tree, though it may be on a bush or a vine, for, there is some confusion on this point, owing to the ct that few if any retideols of this ction tv«r saw it growing, ileie ii is knoAUOoly as a more or lc&s luscious fruit, tadly in need tor the most paTt ot iv ing dosed with vermifuge, and done up :n high la ttomed baskets with red motquito bit ring ov«jr it to enhance its ioe*tc charms and bide the blus^e? ot the dealer when he asks prices even more aititudinous than the bottom of the basket. But to say the peach bushes or tries or vines, whichever it is, have been killed in Vigo county by the cold weather, is merely another way of announcing that some careless market gardener let the fires go down in his green house or oouldn't keep them up hot enough to protect this dainty and over delicate plant. As to apples, wbich always were better than peaches, they will be helped rather than hurt by the cold weather, which, without hurting them, may frees beyond any resurrecting thaW the bugs by which they are bothered.

BLIZZARD.

Bing unable longer to hold the mer. cury down in the basements of the ther mometers, the disgusted blizzard devoted its energies yesterdny and the night be. r-- to flinging a heavy mantle of snow over h'frozen earth. The field of its opera1,it ns seems to have been pretty much the entire country. Good and bad results will both flow from this change of tactics. All travel on railroads will be more or less impeded, For snow is one of the most vexatious elements with which the iron horse is forced to contend.

A feature of the late cold spells tias been the number of fires all over the country: This has been as noticeable as the cold weather itself. While the excessive cold has been freezing people to death here and there over the country, nipping ears and noses innumerable, ngt to mention hands and feet, and, in several conspicuous instances mentioned in the dif patches to be read at the tea table, playing sad havoc with live stock in the 0618, the other extreme of heat has been doii'g ever more damage!, During the past week there have been more tires reported iu the dispatches than during any other period ot two weeks --for several yearsjast.
