WEATHER EVENTS March 26 1823 All the eastern papers notice the severity of the late snow storm. We copy the following article on the subject from the Boston Centinel. The month, just ended, has been unusually cold and stormy. The roads in the interior, we learn, are much blockaded with drifted snow. A traveler from the westward informs, that he was 12 hours in traveling on horseback 4 miles; and that he had to dig through drifts 15 feet high. The mails on the great road have not been much impeded; but those on the cross roads very much so. A great quantity of snow has fallen in all directions.
