THIS morning I noticed the first blossoms of the Coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara), ordinarily considered an indication of the near approach of spring. For many years a generous rivalry has existed between myself and a friend (both travellers on the North Kent Railway, on the banks of which the plant is excessively abundant) as to which could record the first blossoms. I think I have seen them as early as the first week in February; on the other hand, it is possible that the first week in April is on record as the earliest appearance; almost without exception it truly indicated that any long period of severe weather was over for that winter. Will this prove the case with the so-called ``winter'' of 1881-1882?
