The weather report, furnished US from
the Arsenal, it viii be seen, showsthe mercury
on the coolest day, to have been only So be-
low o. The instrument used at the Arsenal
is enclosed in case with glass front, and
having plenty of holes through the case for
the circulation of air, land it hangs on the
northwest side Of the hospital, near the CEN
ter Of the Island. OF course this position is
somewhat sheltered, by the timber, from the
north west winds, andis not as cold as the ex-
posed position on the bridge, and the mer-
curry does not fall quite as low as in the cold
est positions which can be selected. At
some points in this city the mercury has fall
en- to IL below, and at several points along
up Rock River it has reached IL below. Mr..
Samuel Bowles informs us that it has been
at ii below, at his place. The instrument
at the Arsenal is one of the best and most
accurate that can be found,-and the posi-
ton in which it is located is probably about
fair average between the very coolest posi-
lions aud those where it might be affected by
heat or the sun, or so sheltered as not to be
a fair average of the weather.

AN IMposrER. Hotel keepers are fire.
quently victimized, and although they are
generally on their guard, they cannot help
being .taken in" once in while. The keo.
kuk Constitution of Tuesday records the
following case of imposition practiced on the
Billings House in that city. As the dodge
may be tried at other places, landlords about
here should keep an eye open:
During the latter part of last week man,
registering himself as S. G.. Denton, came
to this city and succeeded in imposing upon
the proprietor of the Billings House, by rep.
resenting himself as an unfortunate, who had
been "sent into the world half made up"-in
other words, nature had neglected to endow
him with two important faculties-speech
and hearing. He was mute. As a mat
ter of course, under the circumstances, Den
ton was entitled to charity, and the good
landlord of the Billings House took him in
to care for him. To make long story
short, Denton got drunk on Sunday, and
from the manner in which he ''covorted"
round and de6led his mouth with low-flung
phrases, it was evident that he possessed a
huency of speech that would recommend
him to any society of blackguards. If some
one had warmed the wax in his ears" we
suppose his hearing would have showed
quite as much improvement as his speech.

THE WRECK OF THE BuRL1NGToS.-The
steamer Burlington, of the Northern Line,
which our readers may remember was sunk
in the early part of last September near Wa
bashaw, on the upper Mississippi. Messrs.
Dugan and Capt. Herman, Of the Chippewa,
purchased the wreck and have recently rails
ed it. They paid only S175 for it. The ex-
pense of raising her, it is said, will not exceed
LOCO and as the hull is not seriously damag
ed this will prove a very fair speculation for
Messrs. D. and H., who are rebuilding hel
upper works. They expect to have her in
running order when navigation opens

Nc FARLAND's THEATRICAL TROUPE made
fine impression. at Darts Hall, last even
ing. The hall was warm and clean, and
the police regulations admirable-no noise,
no rowdyism, nothing offensive to the most
fastidious. Many people have hesitated to
take ladies to the theatrical entertainments
of travelling troupes on account of the row.
dyism in the audience, poor acting, and,
sometimes, an approach to vulgarity and
impropriety. This company seems to be an
exception to most travelling companies, in
that respect, and, we doubt not, will main.
tain the good impression created last night.
