Tin GREAT HEAT.—The unusually great beat
cif the pest few days for so early • period of the year is
remarkable. Duriog the past twenty-two years the tempera-
ture in the shade. et Boston Observatory, only reached 80
deg. in the following years :-1846 reaching 811 deg.; 1847,
84.5 deg.; 1844, 83'0 deg.; 1833, 820 deg.; 1855, 811 deg.;
1859, 840 deg. Yesterday, et 9.45 am., the temperature
had reached 811 deg. In London, yesterday, the register
thermometers stood at 82 deg. is 041 shade, showing so
amount of beat hitherto unrecorded in this part of the
country during any previous May ; wind veering from
N.E to E.S.E. This morning the barometer (Negretti and
Zambia's) indicated 30 inches and three-teethe (30.300),
and from the stadiums with which it maintains this high
point, no very early change of weather I. likely to take
place. At the Great etch Observatory yesterday Nevelt&
and Zambra's maximum thermometer, conseniated to give
the exact temperature at extreme heights, showed 80 de-
grees in the sh4de. The elevation there may account for
the indication being lower than elsewhere.

appointed to welt upon the masten,abo bed gives notice to
about 1,000 or 1,500 men in the Bradley district for • reduc-
tion in their wages of 3d. a day. Between I.oooand 1,500 man
were present; and the deputation reported that those of the
masters whom they had been able to see all objected to with-
draw the notice, some of them paying that before they would
do no they would blow out their furnaces. Several nominee
WWI then delivered, the burden of the whole being that the
toasters were trying to oppress the men, but that the me,
were determined that to the uttermost they would resist
the effort. Aij. it was stated, would be forthcoming from
every other Inkier district in the kingdom ; and other
trades' uniooa, it was added, had offered aseisteoce. The
struggle would be the stronger because it was felt that if the
masters succeeded with this notice they would give one ell
