We experienced, within the last week, the most extreme cold weather. The oldest men amongst us, do not recollect to have felt the cold so sensibly since the memorable cold Sunday, in 1773. On the night of the 11th inst. the weather was so excessively severe as to freeze horned cattle to death. A young cow, that was tolerable beef, belonging to Captain Cady, of Cornish, (New-Hampshire) was froze in such a manner that they were necessitated to kill her next morning. A two year old belonging to Dudley Chase, Esq. of the same town, was found in the morning of the 12th inst. frozen to death.
