Line 0.0.0 SNOWY TUESDAY.

Line 0.0.1 [FROM A CORRESPONDENT.]

Line 0.0.2 TUESDAY last, the 28th current, will be memora-

Line 0.0.3 ble in the annals of this good town as the day on

Line 0.0.4 which its inhabitants were favoured for the first

Line 0.0.5 time with the sight of snow. It reminded us of

Line 0.0.6 home more than anything we had ever seen in the

Line 0.0.7 colony. We enjoyed a similar impression on

Line 0.0.8 observing the thick set rows of gooseberry bushes

Line 0.0.9 in a settler's garden in Van Dieman's Land. It

Line 0.0.10 was the very thing we had seen so often at home,

Line 0.0.11 and it brought along with it associations which a

Line 0.0.12 trellissed vinery, however neatly kept, can never

Line 0.0.13 give birth to. Every flake of snow too seemed

Line 0.0.14 to be singing as it fell, Dulce, dulce domum!

Line 0.0.15 Home, sweet home ! The fall was by no means

Line 0.0.16 considerable in Sydney, although we are told it

Line 0.0.17 was several inches deep towards Parramatta ; it

Line 0.0.18 lay for an hour or more on the tops of houses

Line 0.0.19 and in other similar situations, and the Sydney

Line 0.0.20 boys were seen for the first time in their lives

Line 0.0.21 making snow-balls. The day was very cold

Line 0.0.22 throughout. We never felt it so cold before in
