THE WEATHER AM TIE CIV

We have never known the weather to be 81
oppressive in New Orleans On Tuesday last
at2 P. NJ, in the Office of one Of our conten
poraries on st, Charles street, we understand
the thermometer stood at 101. A few moments
after two oF@iock that day, thunder cloud
overspread the sky, darkening the sun s often
rays, and bringing with it delightful but
fitful wind, which, in less than half an hour
lowered the mercury ten degrees.
| For the man of leisure who has a chance IA
select his places of resort, there is always some
shady nook to shelter in through which the
cool river or lake breeze rustles like a
heavenly messenger; but alas for the
poor editor, or merchant or artizan, whose
labors eonfne him to close room on
| the sunny side of the street after the fam
ing god of day has passed his meridian.
Notwithstanding the intense heat the city
continues in a remarkable condition of health
fulness. The doctors all wear lugubrious
faces, and aver with sielSly smile that
"0thello's occupation 5 gone" There is no
yellow fever, nor indeed fever of any sort,
except a few cases of pernicious fever among
children, brought on by going bareheaded
into the rays of the midday sun. New
Orleans never before sweltered under more
intense or oyerpowering sultriness and at the
same time enjoyed SO complete an immunity
from disease of every description.
Comparatively fewpeople are now to be seen
upon our streets during daylight but the
rural -resorts-the lake shore CarrolltoD, the
barraoks-oyerfow with the painting crowds
that flee to them for the pleasures of bath
ing, rambling amid the flowers aud foliage
OF sitting upon the banks of the majestic
river whose mighty volumes are always rip-
pied by grateful zephyrs.
Our markets abound with every delicaov
fish, flesh, fowl, vegetables and fruit ,noney
is easy the nations wards" are oriet ana
lnoifensiye the police are efficient, prompt
and affable; ice is cheap; the freedmen,s
bureau quiescant; nothing ia fine to provoke
I'LL temper but the fantastic warmth Of H.
clerk Of the weather, and the Iudicrous ca,,,,s
OF the ambitious convention" Of 1894 T,at
us suffer with equanimity the discomfo,ts NJ
the one and the convulsive gyrations of the
under present appearances both
are. equally innocuoua
AS il would be objectionable in us to finish
our aHiiele upon the weather and city without
'poet3eal quotation, we will tell our readers
hat they vii find great deal of real enjoy
nentin visiting the yerdant environs of our
pleasant old city, where the groves are alive

A NEw STATE, There is another State
about to be admitted into the federal Union.
We haven't Kept the run Of them accurately,
but we believe it is Tire thirty-seventh- 81, o.
radical theories, the twenty-sixth. The name
ofthe aedgling is Nebraska She has broken
her Territorial shell and now gives a little
sqneaA Of statitude by eleeting Two persons tc
represent her IL the United States Senate. Of
course they VIII get il without trouble, As
Nebraska enjoys the blesssd privilege o.
never having been a State before. As to
Louisiana and 4 sioll like, they may be very
good looking, but they can't BIZ any posi-
bility come in. They might vote wrong.
The Nebraska Senators are John M. Thayer
and T. W. Upton. A State Constitution has
already been formed, and State officers and a
State legislature have been elected.

The New York Tribune quotes Jefferson as
having said that q an men are created free
and equal which is an attempt. we suppose,
to quote the dogma Of the Declaration, that
& al men are created equal OF course JEFF
1ersan, who owned numberef slaves himself,
was net idiot enough to say that all men are
crested free but the radical newspapers are
quite stupid enough to say any absurd thing
IN the world for instance, that all men have
natural right To vote except rebels"

self greatly in the war, who went to Washing

Judge Kelly, a prominent Congressman from
Pennsylvania, who received him with exceed
ing cordially, and promised his influence
