The Cold Weather.

The weather in this city continued very cold
yesterday and the night preceding. We noticed
ice yesterday six inches thick.
In New York, on Wednesday morning, the
thermometer stood at thirteen degrees above zero,
not so cold by four degrees as it is represented to
have been in this city on the same morning. The
Commercial 4dvsrtiseT says it was the coldest morn
ing they have had in New York for ten years,
which the 26th Of December, 1919, when
the temperature was only nine degrees above zero,
and not higher than nineteen any time during the
day.
In Philadelphia, on Wednesday morning, as we
learn from the BuIietin the thermometer was at
six degrees above zero, the river Schuylkill was
frozen tight, and the merchants were preparing to
fill their ice houses.
In Louisville, kentucky, the sold ia said to have
been intense. and the navigation was suspended
above and below the falls.

omitted yesterday TO notice the death of our
worthy fellow citizen, James " Wagner, csq. He
was universally esteemed by all who had the plea-
sure of his acquaintance for his many good quail
ties Of both head and heart md being blessed with
an abundance of this worlds goods, he wns well
known for his many deeds Of unoStentatious chari-
ty and good will to his fellow-man. He was one of
the most firm and consistent leading Wings Of the
city, and one of the most devoted admirers and
friends of Mr.. Clay through all the phases of his
political life.
The announcement that the Rev. Dr. Plumer, OF
this city, was about to accept the presidency OF
Princeton College. turns out TO be unfoundcd. He
has received call to the presidency of Princeton
Seminary, but has not sgnifed his intention of ac-
cepting the cali.
The announcement received here this morning that
the continued ili-health Of Mr.. Clay had rendered
the resignation of his seat in tie Senate necessary
has been received with universal regret. Mr..
Clay is now no longer regarded politician, but
generally and gratefully estessned as one of the
fathers OF his country.
