The creak of the cricket has been common on all warm, dry hills, banks, etc. , for a week, - inaugurating the summer.

The remarkably dry weather has been both very favorable and agreeable weather to walkers. We have the bracing air of the seashore with the warmth and dryness of June in the country.
The creak of the cricket inaugurating the summer. See May 22, 1854 ("At Lee's Cliff. --First observe the creak of crickets. It is quite general amid these rocks. "); May 26, 1852 ("To-night I hear many crickets. They have commenced their song. They bring in the summer.”); May 30, 1855 ("Is it not summer now when the creak of the crickets begins to be general?"); See also May 18, 1851 ("The turning-point between winter and summer is reached.”)
