There is something wrong in the sky. It can't stop

snowing, though the sun is again north of the Equator. The Clifton people complain that it has been snowing five weeks, and that there are eight inches of snow on the ground there. It is not as bad as that near London ; but two days' snow, one day's slush, a clry day, and then snow again, is the fate even of Londoners. It isn't nice at all, and then the moral shock of such weather at the eni of March, after a hard winter, is painful. A Clifton man did "write to the Times" on Thursday, and as that was followed by a heavier fall thah ever on Friday, the only course left is for Mr. Darby Griffith, "with his usual acuteness," as Mr. Disraeli says, to put a question to the Government in the House of Commons.
