THE HOTTEST DAY.-The hottest day on
record in many places on the Atlantic side of
the United States was Saturday last, the 2lst
of August. Not in New York, where the
highest degree of the heat was only ninety
five, but in some other places, Philadelphia,
for instance, where the mercury in the shade
for time marked 104, and Washington, where
1t rose to los. Such great heats, extending
over wide section, produce great changes,
and 30 1t Is probable that from the heated
term Of Thursday, Friday and Saturday last
the backbone of the summer is broken.

Postal Money 0.ders to Switzerland.

Postal Money Oidsrs to switzerland.
We have already announced that new and
convenient postal system of money orders
between this country and Switzerland had
been agreed upon. The Postmaster General
(Nr CreswelD has issued official instructions
to postmasters all over the country, by which
it appears that the general rules require that
the exchange of postal orders between the two
countries is to be effected through the agency
Exchange Offices" The International Ex-
change Office on the part Of the United
States is New York and that ON the
part of Switzerland is Basle. Certain money
order post offices in this country, desig-
mated for the purpose by the Postmaster
General are authorized to issue money orders
on the Postmaster at New York, payable to
benefciaries in Switzerland, and to pay orders
issued by that Postmaster, for sums remitted
by the Post Department of Switzerland, for
payment to beneficiaries in the United States.
Hence an international money order cannot
directly upon postmaster in the other, but
must be drawn upon the International Ex-
change Office Of the country in which the
order is issued. An international postal order
must not be drawn for larger sum than fifty
dollars in United States currency, and must
not contain q fractional part of a cent. The
fees for the issue of international postal orders
are the same as for domestic money orders,
viz. :-On orders not exceeding twenty dol
lars, ten cents; over twenty dollars and
not exceeding thirty dollars, fifteen cents;
over thirty dollars and not exceeding forty
dollars, twenty cents; over forty dollars and
not exceeding fifty dollars, twenty-five cents.
No other currency than United States or
national bank notes can be received or paid.
The convenience Of this arrangement will
be seen at once. The idea of an International
Exchange Office is something new but it may
simplify and facilitate the business.
The New York herald., 1869-08-23
Tho RELIGIOUS Aspect.

Camp meetings, with all the attendant out
door and open-air religious exercises to which
such assemblages afford occasion and vent,
have been in very decided favor with the
church-going members of the community
during the past week. We are not at all sur
prised at it. Fervency in prayer could scarcely
be endured at the same time with the unusual
heat of the weather inside the walls of hea-
vily draped, deeply cushioned and sombre win
dowed church; 80 the congregations were, to
a very great extent, compelled to return
to the primitive custom, and worship God
under the great canopy of heaven and with
the surroundings of nature in their finest
luxuriance and grandeur on all sides about
them. The Sabbath services of the Methodists
in camp meeting at Sing Sing were vastly con-
soling, opening with the solemnization of the
''love feast" and embracing q sermon by
Bishop James. The colored brethren were in
camp meeting at Far Rockaway with great
sclat, and, apparently, vast amount Of con-
ISOLATION. In Christ Church, Brooklyn, an
Episcopal clergyman treated on ''Sin q
Disease" but was rather indefinite, not only as
to the means Of particular diagnosis, but any
feasible plan of cure, leaving the case gener-
ally to the Great Physician of Souls towards
the close. Vicar General STAIRS was eloquent
and forcible, as usual, in st. Patrick's Cathe-
dral New York.

he is to leave by special train ''direct for the

invitation from the republican State authori-
ties. Ex-President Pierce, we are sorry to
learn, is at Cape May, and will not be home
for some days to come; otherwise meeting in
Concord between him and General Grant

The Now Dominion-Prlnoe Arthur.

The New Dominion has got fresh sensation
to stir the upper crust Of society. Prince Ar
thur, third son of Queen Victoria, and young
man of whom fame, in spite Of her proverbial
malignity, has the courage to say good word,
set foot yesterday, for the first time, on our
American shores. The regular and volunteer
forces and the various civic societies in Hall
fax are preparing to give him right royal
welcome, and to-day's festivities will close
with fireworks and general illumination
throughout the city. A ball and picnic in
honor of his Royal Highness will crown the
weeks jubilee, and all outside at least will 60
"merry as a marriage bell" whatever cause
for dissatisfaction may lurk within. AS son of
the reigning sovereign-a lady to whose vir-
tues all pay honor-he will pass from city to
city of the New Dominion, admired and feted
and welcomed wherever he goes, but amid
all his journeyings and pleasure excursions
keeping aloof, says our telegraphic despatch,
from the United States.
Now why is this Are our habits, feelings,
mode of thinking and expressing ourselves,
too republican for this scion Of royalty, at the
raw age of nineteen, to be placed with safety
within reach of their influence? Or does he
himself, or do his advisers, imagine that we
should not welcome him as warmly as we did
his brother in 1860? Far from it. Our quar-
REL such as it is, is not with the British crown,
but with the British aristocracy, who leagued
themselves against us during our civil war.
At that time-and we remember it to their
credit-his royal mother and Prince Albert
were almost the only friends we conld count
upon in the British government; and were it
only for their sake we should give him an en-
thusiastic welcome. But perhaps the object of
his visit to the New Dominion is, in reality,
to spy out the land and judge for himself
whether the inhabitants, Notwithstanding their
republican neighborhood, desire king to
reign over them. In that case, though we are
too good republicans to wish him success, yet
if nothing but this bauble of crown will
satisfy our New Dominion friends, We know of
no one more worthy to wear 1t than this young
man, whose connections and satecedents are
in every way so honorable.
