Probable Weather for September, 18P5.— How completely has the forecast 

 for August been fulfilled in general and in de f aii, and especially in the changes indi- 

 cated for the latter part of the month ! There is a prospect of a brilliant and enjoy- 

 able autumn, and of weather suited to all crops and all labours. Roots will be fine, 

 and grain will be safely harvested. From 1st to 15th fine, without any interruption ; 

 wind easterly in southern and eastern districts ; average temperature. From 16th to 

 24th, showery in western districts, and in the north rather stormy, but agreeable 

 weather prevailing ; in eastern districts some rain, with wind N.W. to S.W. From 

 25th to end, fine, with wind IN'.W. to JST.E. ; in ail districts situated north of Nor- 

 wich occasional frosts likely, and these will occur with heavy fogs ; temperature low 

 everywhere ; but upon the whole the month will close as pleasantly as it began.
