The Misunderstanding yesterday the high
England and Middle Atlantic States, fol-
lowed by general fall Of pressure from the
lakes to the Gulf The centre of the low
baromctrio area in the northwest has not
moved rapidly eastward, but the area
itself has extended eastward and southwark,
causing light rains through the Central Missis-
sippi Valley and cloudy or threatening weather
ever the lakes Strong winds attend the north
western depression, and snow has fallen
very generally on its margin. In tho
Gulf the pressure has also fallen, with
rains from the Texas to the Florida coast.
The movement Of q storm from tho southwest
srn Gulf along the coast States toward Florida
may he looked for during to-day and tomorrow.
This will probably be followed by the formation
Of barometric trough line generally
parallel with the Atlantic ooast and which
will be attended by heavy rains over the
southeastern and central coast States. We
may also look for the gradual descent of the
high pressure from the northwest after the
depression in that region into the Mississippi
Valley and lake istricts, with a good deal oi
snow In New York and its vicinity to-day the
weather will he warmer and cloudy OF partly
cloudy followed by light rains. Tomorrow the
weather will be cloudy and warm, with south
west winds aud rains. For the New England
and Middle Atlantic coast States the threatening
Indications will increase from north to south

steadily Increasing excess of production
over home consumption, caused by i'm
provements in cultivation as we'll as by the
multitude added annually to the hoat of
producers, both in the South and West
from natural increase and immigration,
the virtual shortening of the commercial
distance between the farm and the factory
all point to elements of commercial pros
perity in New Orleans which are hardly
appreciated by even the most sanguine.
The epidemic has undoubtedly not only
checked but temporarily arrested our pro-
gress. But in few weeks more, like all
other transient calamities, the epidemic
will exist only in its poignant recollections
of losses, suffering and bereavement, on
the one hand, and the magnificent out
pourings of the true heart and manhood of
our country men in more favored localities,
which have done more and will do more in
the future to obliterate sectional bitterness
and animosites, than even the audable,
iudicious and patriotic policy of the present
Federal administration.
We firmly believe that New Orleans has
q golden future, in which all her Losses
will be recovered, aud that reasonable
view of the prospect should inspire our
commercial AID industrial classes with
cheerful courage and an inspiring hopeful
ness and confidence. i

ETICTIONS IN IRELAND.


THE LE1TRIM ESTATE IN DoNEGAL-ExcIr
ING SCENE.
A Daily Express telegram, dated Letter
kenny, says:
Intense excitement exists in and about
Meltord in consequence of the summary
ejectment of the Widow Algoe aud her two
sons from the house aud farm at Burlln,
near Milford, from which she was evic.ed
two years ago by the late Lord Letrim,
and of which she took forclble possession
en- the fifth instant. Yesterday evening
Captain Doping, agent to the Earl of
Leitrim, accompanied by several bailiffs,
proceeded to the house re-occupied by Mrs.
Algoe and her two sons, when a bailiff
named Harrison broke open the door with
a crowbar. A rush was made into the
house by the other bailiffs in body. They
we're opposed by the brothers Algoe, who
struck the bailiffs on entering, but after
desperate, we'll sustained and determined
resistance, they were overpowered, and
along with their mother elected from the
house, which remains in occupation of sew
eral bailiffs, we'll armed. Robert and ohm
Algoe were arrested by the police, several
of whom were present, and will be brought
before the magistrates at Milford petty
sessions to morrow, Thursday.
EVICTION IN NORTH KERRY-A MOST HAIR
ROWING SCENE.
A corr, spondent of the Kerry Sentinel,
writing from Ballybunnion on Thursday
week, says:
Au eviction fthe most theartrendngc char
acter took place yesterday evening at a place
called Gortnaskehi. the property of Mr..
George HewsoD, J.P., Ennismore. The
place lies close to Ballybuunion, and the
scene enacted on the occasion batfl 1s de-
scription. The name ofthe evicted person
is Michael German, who has wife aud
five children, the youngest au nfant at the
breast. This property was bought by Mc.
Hewson about dozen years ago. German,
believe, was born on the property, and
married niece of a man named Kissane,
who adopted her as his child. kissane's
family, am informed, resided for genera
tions in the place. What could be Mr.
Hevson's motive in evicting this unhappy
family it is not for me to conjecture. All
know is that German is an industrious
and hard-working man, and perfectly able
to meet his demands. At the appointed
hour, the sub sheriff, Me-. Hartnett, at
of Mr.! Hewson's men, was on the spot, and
in a short time had all the furniture
thrown on the roadside, and finally Cor
man, HIS wife, and five young children
were elected. 1t was certainly sight to
move the most callous to pity to see this
wretched family near fire on the roadside
without any shelter against the inclemency
of frosty Autumnal night but the wide
heavens above. Poor Mrs. German, who
has all the appearance of a maniac, ia still
upon the spot-twenty -four hours after the
eviction-rending the skies with her moaus,
lamentations and curses.

BALD HEADS AND BED HEADS.

1t has been noted (and it cannot be denied
with great deal of truth) that godliness ana a!t
badness go over the earth hand in hand. Sit'
ting in church gallery and looking down
over the congregation, the number of smooth,
bald heads to be seu is overpowering. This Is
noticeable among every denomination except
the z lakers, who, IN the is5 place, have no
Godnness in their churches, and who keep
their hats on in meeting. The same thing,
though, must bs said of the theaters Ever!
fourth male head is bald one. If it is not
already qnite white and bare, a little more
time will make it so. And, after all, some pec
pie prefer perfectly bald head to heE,
red one. a young Clergyman was once rulness
in his profession by q bright red head, althong.
his own hair WAS as black as ink. In the mlo" ms
OF solemn sermon on remembering the Ssy
bath day he looked up at the gallery and burr
into a roar of laughter. The Congregation
