March. --The March of the present season is performed in the style of a forcible but unskilled orchestra, with discordant wind instruments. Its outset was peaceful, and very like a lamb, which soon, however, became an unmanageable weather; and then the blustering railer at the head of the band swelled out his cheeks and blew such a blast that all nature was chilled, and the unfolding buds and blossoms shrank from the rude encounter, while the spring birds flew back to their nests from whent down a shower of those feathers of which the grim frost-king makes his bed, and the gusty thieves had a fresh blow-out on the occasion. The visit, however, was of brief duration.--The snow scattered itself about with a looseness on Thursday night, but the morning found only a few patches here and there, rapidly dissolving into mud. Thus has March so far deported itself with its usual warlike characteristics. Whether it will depart like unto a lion or a lamb, remains yet to be developed.
