here that Colonel John T. Flynn,

an excellent superintendent, and
Wen bet a cigar he makes a tiptep

Middle and Memphis divisions will
be consolidated, with Col. Mont
gomery as superintendent. He has
had charge OF the Middle di-
and is a splendid railroad
man. We wish he would make his
heaquarters here.

why cities are warm.

1t is a matter of very m
observation that large cities are in
general wal mer than the country
around them. This effect is, in a
great measure, caused by the inter,
rupticn Of the sweep of the winds;
yet as trees interfere with wind quite
as eifectually as buildings, the in
terror of forest should be as much
warmed by this cause as in the heart
Of great city. But the heat given
out by the fuel burned in the city,
and by its inhabitants Gncluding
the lower animals), is by no means
TO be disregarded in such estimates.
President Eaton, of the London
meteorological society, calculates
that the consumption Of coal in
London-fve million tons per
year within a surface of
one hundred and eighteen square
miles, would raise the temperature
Of a stratum OF air one hundred
feet thick over that whole area of
two and Ope-half degrees Fahren-
heit every hour. A decided rise in
the average temperature at Green
wich observatory has been recorded
in a series Of years, and is believed
to be due to the increase of build
ings and population in the vicinity.
1t has frequently been asserted, and
is a matter Of popular belief, that
settlement and a growth Of popu.
lation have modified the climate of
many localities in the United States;
but trustworthy statistics on this
point are not yet attainable.
