GIGANTIC FRAUDS IN PHnADELpHn.-It is
Philadelphia this time which announces its
gigantic frauds. A real estate dealer entered
into a conspiracy with clerk in the Office
of the Recorder of Deeds, by which property
of the former was made to appear unencum-
bered, whereby he was enabled to mortgage
it in almost fabulous amounts. These swim
ding operations were accomplished some
years ago, and were discovered by mere
accident 1t is not an unusual case of trust
in official integrity, for, we believe, few men
who hold mortgages on real estate in other
places besides Philadelphia know whether
their mortgages have been transferred to the
record books and are properly indexed. The
discovery of these frauds will be likely to
cause many persons to examine the books of
record to see that their judgments and mort
cages have been properly recorded.

lated sections of the city, and to the street
distractions by fruit dealers and others in
streets contiguous to the markets. Yesterday
the fruit stands on the lower portion of vesey
street and other streets extended nearly half
way across the roadway, seriously obstructing
the movement of vehicles, just as foot passen-
gers are obstructed on the sidewalks. Now
there is nothing palmer than that the streets
and sidewalks are for public use and not for
the use of individual traders. As the city
authorities have commenced reform let it be
thorough. Especially should the Health
Board see that all the streets be clean and the
pavements put in order, since the Commits
sioner of Public Works can do nothing in the
latter respect.

The Cool Spell and It's Relation Il
tho August Cyclones.

tho August Cyclones.
The cool spell we have Just had constitutes
marked phenomenon of this superheated
dog day season. The entire country, except
ing only the extreme South, was refreshed and
regaled on Monday by the grateful breezes
from the northwest, and awoke to find the
thermometer not in the eighties and nineties.
but ranging between 81 degrees and 72 degrees,
temperature at the present time absolutely
delicious. The last named figures, which
represent the temperature of Monday generally
north of the thirty fifth parallel, as given in
the weather reports, are attributable to the
continuous passage of large mass of cool air
from beyond the lakes, in southeastward
direction, destined, in its course, to find its
way to the burning tropics. The phenomenon
in question borrows additional interest
from the more recent researches in
ocean meteorology which 60 to prove
an intimate relation between it and
the great August cyclones of the West Indies.
These aerial movements over the United
States, of which we have just had specimen,
are characterized by very high barometric
pressure, and, like great sheets of ice moving
by their own weight across the Continent,
when arrested, they become massed up. This
aerial accumulation occurs in the equatorial
portions of the Atlantic, and reaches its
climax in the last of July or the 1st of
August, just when another similar array of
atmospheric forces, with very high pressure,
is formed over the Azores. The proximity of
two high pressures which are required to
form hurricane Gust, as one has said, 'two
high tempers are needed to make a quarrel')
brings about the most violent collision of
their respective winds and recent research,
under the auspices of the English Meteor
illogical Office, in this splendid domain of
scientific inquiry quite conclusively proves
that it is this very collision which gives the
first start to the West India cyclones.
If the climatic influence of the Rocky
Mountains is, as meteorology teaches us, the
explanation Of these cold air waves which
move across our Continent and thence plunge
into the tropical regions of the Atlantic Ocean
we can locate ''the cave of the Winds" and
are led to read in new light the physical
agency of the great mountain range and its
far-reaching effects. But, much more than
this we find specific knowledge of the great
storms which at this season are preparing to
burst forth upon the tropical seas, and, after
having strewn them with disaster and ship
wreck, sweep the ship tracks near our own
shores. About twenty-three per cent of hll
these tempests occur in August, and the ships
which leave our ports now may and ought to
go thoroughly forewarned and forearmed to
meet the worst perils of the deep. If there is
any force in the reasoning which connects
terrestrial and oceanic meteorology tho
phenomenon Of which we first spoke may be
regarded as premonitor of the dreaded hurri-
cane of the West Indian waters.
The New York herald., 1873-08-06

The DEMOCRACY OF PENNSYLVANIA seem un-
willing TO give up the ghost just at present,
and Congressman Randall, the chairman of
the State Central Committee, in calling the
Democratic Convention, to meet at Wilkes
barre on the 9th instant, advises the
party that if it would not expire it must be
galvanized. Nothing is said in regard to fur
ther afiliation with the liberal republicans,
and we suppose Mr.. Randall and his associ-
ates mean to fight the battle alone, following
the example which is to be set to-day by the
Ohio Convention.

American in these, must occupy prominent
place In painting and sculpture there is no
reason why we should not be represented by
the very best specimens of recent work If
Paris will not send US bronzes can we not
show that we are not altogether deficient in
the cunning conceit-work that has made
France so famous2 We have much besides
giant squashes and machinery and model
schoolhouses to show to the world as evidences
of our social and political condition. All
these must be brought together and exhibited
under the brightest aspects. The American
department of the Philadelphia Exhibition
must tell in a language more eloquent than
words the story OF the growth and progress of
both country people in the century that is
passed
All this is giant work, and it must not be
left altogether to Philadelphia. The whole
country has as much interest in the Centennial
Exhibition as the Quaker City. Every part of
the country must assist in the enterprise.
Congress must take the lead and the State
Legislatures follow. A plan should be ma
tured that will be comprehensive enough for
grand national and international fair BY
whom the plan is devised, whether it is left to
Philadelphia or brought forward under ma
tional auspices, makes little difference so long
as it meets the requirements of the case and
comports with the dignity of the occasion.
The Vienna Exposition will teach us many
things for the management of our own,
and when the Philadelphia Commission, now
in Vienna, returns its return cannot fail to
be to the advantage of the Centennial AS
the latest of the great expositions the Vienna
Exposition is full of LESSONS to be learned
both in the way of merits to be initiated and
faults to be avoided. The holding of great
fairs at which all the nations of the earth
come to exhibit the best of what they have to
show is no easy matter, and the success of the
Centennial Exhibition makes it desirable that
we should learn all that we can from the expe-
rience Of others as we'll as 60 to work with /.

the metropolis and surrounding cities. Now
that there has been another disastrous confia-
grafton in that locality would it not be well,
both for the interests of the owners Of the re-

be removed to some other place? The sug-
gestion is one which we are sure will meet
with general appreciation.
