The WEArHER.-Tbe Thermometer at Dr.. W. e. Lewis
Drug store under the Atlantic Hotel indicated the fol
lowing state Of the weather Wednesday:


Mr.. Tracey, one of the editors of the
Washington Republic, ashort time since
came down the bay in company with
President Johnson and his staff, and
paid a brief visit to our city. He gives
the following as his impressions of Nor
folk in the Republic on his return home !:
NORFOLK.
The approaching view to Norfolk is
much more attractive than we had sup
posed. During the rebellion we have
heard so much said in disparagement OF
this fine old town that we were prepared
to find it "disagreeable hole" But
when once we have passed the outskir
of docks and wharves, which present the
most disagreeable features of every sea
port, and fairly entered the place, we
find Norfolk very comfortable town.
The business streets have a business like
air, and stroll among the residences of
the f. f. VS. reveals many facilities for
enjoyment. 1t is true, that many of the
houses and fences are in need of fresh
coat of paint, but our cynic suggested a
reason, viz: that the place had been in a
state of war, and while the owners did
not wish to adopta "neutral tint" they
didn't know for a long time what the
prevailing colorsn would be.
The trees and Towering shrubs of Nor
folk are abundant and luxuriant. The
Grape myrtle here grows up to a lofty
tree, covered with the richest bloomery
imaginable. The magnolia-.as, for in
stance, that fine specimen in the grounds
of the residence formerly occupied by G..
p. r. James, the two horsenan-power
novelist-attains the richest perfection
here.
Passing along one of the streets, we
brushed against the branches of fig
tree, we'll loaded with good sized fruit,
which leaned over the sidewalk. The
truth is that the climate and soil of
Norfolk is semi-tropical. While it is
only four degrees south of Washington,
its vegetables are four weeks earlier If
the vegetables were regulated by degrees
in that ratio it is easy to perceive from
a mathematical calculation that cucum-
bers wouldgrow around the globe ahead
of time.
We found in Norfolk some good
hotels, although our stay was too brief
to "do them" (justice.) Norfolk has
also live newspaper, the Post, conduc-
ted by gentleman of the loyal persua-
sion, whose tact and ability in that line,
together with pretty thorough expert
ence, render him hard to beat. Captain
Clark, may your Post be firmly set, and
may all the people in your bailiwick
who have been politically demoralized
by secessionism soon come up to and
rally around your standard.

The Experience of a Rebel.
The following story is told by the New
Orleans Picnultne

The following story is told by the New
Orleans Picayuaae
"a gentleman of this city, who has
been very prominent, earnest and eff
fective rebel, was captured and brought,
some weeks ago. to Baton Rouge, where
he was delivered into the hands of Gen.
Lawler. Now, the General is one ofthe
kindest hearted and most genial of men,
and, to the surprise of the captured
rebel, he received him with the greatest
benignity and courtesy; aud, after TAX
| ing his parole, and otherwise kindly
| obliging him, asked the heretofore OBJ
durate rebel if his men United States
soldiers) had not recently captured q
horse and buggy of his. The rebel, with
a resigned but melancholy air, answered
in the affirmative, adding, and you will
find him an excellent horse Yes,
remarked the General, 1 have so found
him, but as you are in greater need OF
him, and have better title to him than
/ have, here is an order for him.
Whereupon, our rebels pensive and
inquired if he could do anything more

made me feel worse whipped than 1
have been during this war;
''Our subjugated Rebel came to the
city, and was much distressed to find
his family elected from the homestead,
and in great need. He had been pros
porous merchant, of good credit, and
seeing no other mode of raising the mo-
ney he required, he wrote to an old mer-
camille friend at the North, who had
been as strong Union man as he had
been rebel and secessionist, stating his
circumstances and asking if his old
| friend could loan him sum of money
which he required for present purposes.
he received prompt response, that all
the money he needed was placed to his
credit and at his convenience. Hereupon
our Rebel again found himself in lower

and humiliation, and protests that if he

illness and magnanimity, he will be un-

Editor Norfolk Post.

Efitor AofJ0M rust
Give it to them, Mr.. Post. Keep 1t be-
fore the people, that these awful and
pestiferous docks may be filled up" the
stencil holes of the city," If the civil
authorities are listless to the call can't
we look to General Mann for aid? Can
our people so soon forget the ravages of
1852 and are we again to go through
the horrors of that eventful year? For
bid it Heaven! Another such visit Of the
Great Pestilence, and farewell to the
prospects of Norfolk forever. Why and
for what purpose are Port Wardens APP
pointed? Does it not come within the
purview Of their duty to see that the
ends of our wharves, particularly those
at the ends of our streets, should be
kept in order, with sufficient abutments
to keep the soil from running into the
river, destroying the streets and filling
up the harbor? You may keep your
dredging-machines at work to deepen
the river, but SO long as the end of Com
merce street remains in its present con-
dition, it will be useless work. If the
owners ofwharves (Which are now valu-
able), are not able to keep them in re-
pair, they should dispose Of them to
persons that will. Q.
