Hot SUMMERS. the records
kept in Nuremberg, in Bavaria, we
get the following interesting facts
"In 1882 the earth cracked by rea-
son of the heat, the wells and streams
in Alasce all dried up, and the bed of
the river Rhine was dry. In 1852
the heat was so great that sand ex-
posed to the suns rays was hot enough
to cook eggs. In 1850 great num-
5ers of soldiers in the campaign
against Bella died from the heat. In
1916 and 1917 crops Of hay and oats
failed completely. In 1903 and 49,
OF man could have crossed, dry
shod, over the rivers Seine, Loir,
Rhine and Danube. In 1898 and
1894 a multitude of animals persisted
by the heat, which was so great that
the harvest dried up. In l440 the
heat was extraordinary. In 1888,
1889, 1910 and 1911 all the rivers
were nearly dried up. In 1856 there
was a great drouth, which extended
over nearly the whole Of Europe. In
1915 and 1916 there was, in Italy,
France and the Netherlands an over
powering heat. In 1913 there were
IS consecutive days of extreme heat.
1918 was very hot, as were the first
three years of the 18th century. Ii
Hist did not rain a single time from
April until October! The growing
grain was burnt, the rivers dried up
the theatres (but wherefore is not sta.
ted were closed by command of the
police. The thermometer showed 36
degrees Reaumer, equal to 113 degrees
Fahrenheit. In irrigated gardens
the fruit trees bloomed twice. II
1928 and 1924 there was great heat
The summer Of l 746 was hot and dry
the growing grain being calcined. Ii
did not rain for months. 174S, 1854
1850, 1867, IT'S and 1888 were
years in which the summers were e1
tremely hot. In the famous GOMEZ
year-1S11-the summer was warm
and the wine produced that season
was very precious. In 1918. the the
aires had to be closed on account 0
the heat, the highest temperature be

During the three days of the revolu
ton of July in 1880, the thermometel
stood at SO degrees Centigrade, abou
81 Fahrenheit. In 1882 during tn,
uprising of the 9Th aud 9th of July
the temperature was about the same.

it; and if paid, we are in favor of let

a REMARKABLE NEGRO GENIAL
the last meeting of Lexington (kyD
Presbytery, negro applied for IL
cense to preach, and it was accorded
to him, but not until after a most
searching examination, during which
he showed textbooks required to be
studied by Presbyterian theological
students. The Lexington Gazette
says the negro is a singular compound
of physical deformity and mental ac-
tivity, painful to look upon, and with
a very large head, out Of all proper
ton to the rest of his person. He is
a reputed son of the great lawyer and
orator, S. S. PrentiSs, and at one time
member of Congress from Mississippi,
where he was looked upon as a per-
feet prodigy of eloquence and mental
attainment. This son Of his seems
to possess his peculiarities in an exag-
gerated degree, and may yet prove as
marvellous in mind as distorted in
body. His appearance so prejudiced
the members ofthe Presbytery against
him that they would have refused him
