INTERESTING SITUATloN-Morals in the city of
Philadelphia do not seem to be at very high
standard, if we may Judge from the following which
we find in the correspondence of the New York
Herald:
Two young men, in comfortable circumstances,
having had their suspicious excited, actually dis
covered the paramours of their wives in very pecu-
liar situations. One was hauled out of bed, where
he was nicely tucked in, and the second endeavored
to escape from the house by trap door in the roof
but being discovered, was forced to. retreat. He
then tore down the upper part of the party wall,
and crawled into the next house but stepping upon
the lath and plaster instead of the oiss in the loft
went through the ceiling into the next story, where
a lady was engaged at her toilet. The scene that
enslled was ludicrous in the extreme. The gallant
ran down stairs, and escaped from the house but
having left his coat and hat behind him, they Were
identified, and the owner arrested One of the
guilty women was hauled from beneath the bed in
which her swain was ensconced, and the feminines
have both made themselves scarce.

RECORDERS CoURTs.-These nestimable places
of justice yesterday almost entirely deserted.
The loafers Saturday night last having fratsr-
nzed, came to the conclusion that it was no use to
get drunk, and the weather being damp, they knew
that they had not the slightest chance of reposing
in any of the public squares. With praiseworthy
effort, they therefore contented themselves with
staying out, instead of going The Workhouse.
They certainly exhibited a very large amount OF
wisdom in evading the guardians of the night

= RAIN.--On Saturday morning last the windows
of heaven Were opened, and the rain came down
with a seventy-four horse power. The stones COM
posing the street-pavement looked like innumerable
heads of bali -pated gentlemen who were striving
to arise out of the earth. The mud had been
washed from them so nicely that the ladies called
them dear little pebbles and absolutely adored
the rich carnation tint of the brickbats Those
who had no umbrellas had to do without them, and
those who had umbrellas lent out were very sorry
that they had been generous. Suffice it to say.
for the last sixty hours it has been excessively
damp, and it was impossible to light lucifer
match in the columns Of rain that were coming down.
Occasionally the rain would come down slanten-
dicularly, then as straight the course of rifle
bullet it would almost knock one down with its per-
pendicular force. White pantaloons Were carefully
folded up and put away in mahogany drawers, and
those gents who had no servants thought that it
was not necessary to black their boots. The wa

NEW ORLEANS:
MONDAY MORNING, JUNE 10, 1s4s.

as We are pleased to see that La Patria has
responded TO the call suggested by us in favor of
Yucatan We find the following in that paper of
yesterday: The Committee OF Aid to Yueatan,
formed in this city on the 18th of last April has t-
ken into consideration the call which has been
made upon it to measures for furnishing transporta
ton TO the volunteers who desire to GO to the assist
ance of Yucatan. Tomorrow (Mondayl at one
O'Clock, P. NJ, the persons who compose the Com.
mittee, will meet at the office of D. Salvador Fer
nandez, 3S Old Levee street, together with such
others are interested in the success of the under
taking, and they invite all who desire, to take part
In the preliminary steps to public meeting. Mr.
JsW. Aacharie will preside at the meeting. which
will probably take place ON Tuesday or Wednes-
day next, when number Of gentlemen will address
the meeting. We would remark, that by personal
subscription of from one to five dollars, the sum
necessary to provide transportation could with ex
IRENE facility be raised in this city, and we doubt
not that the New Orleans public will this occa-
sion manifest their known spirit of benevolence in
cooperating in plan so worthy of being carried
into effect as the present In the name of the COM
mittee, Ind in our own, supplicate the city pa
pers to call attention to this affair, which is of so
much Importance
COMING HoME.-ln a few weeks we shall have
thousands of soldiers in the barracks Contiguous to
our CITY, 1t would be well for our authorities to
adopt prompt measures for the reception of those
whose deeds have thrown such an additional Ius-
ire upon the already brilliant shield of our country.
During the coming season, and shortly too, we may
expect to receive at this point less than 20 900
men. This may seem an exaggesation but we
learn it from most authentic source. New Or
leans can afford and will, we are sure give these
gallant soldiers worthy reception. We may look
out for the arrival Of some OF them during the lat
ter part of this week.
