The highest temperature was at 2 z.
NJ. of Tuesday, the 16 inst.--92o. At
2 P. M. Sunday, the Nth, it was 90.
The late prolonged heated period
though unusual. is by no means un-
precedented. During the last week of
June, 1870, the temperature at 2 P.
M. WAS 9le one day 92o on two days,
and 93,o 94,0 go each on one day.
During the hot period of July, 1872,

evening of the 10 inst to the night of

How THE JAPANESE ARE SHoD.-
The Japanese are far ahead of us
civilized Americans in the matter Of
wearing comfortable shoes. A travel
er among them says that among the
first things that strikes the traveller in
Japan are the wooden sandals worn bv
these 36,OOO,OO0 of people. They
have separate compartment for the
great toe, and make a creeking noise
on the street. Straw slippers are also
worn, and traveller setting out on a
Journey will strap supply of them on
his back that he may have new pair
when the old ones are worn out. They
cost but three farthings a pair, and
leave the foot free to the air, We never
see those deforlnities of the foot 10
Japan which are SO frequent in Eng
land. They are never worn in the
house being left outside the door.
Passing down the street, you see long
rows of them at the door, old and new
large and small. It is surprising to
see how readily the Japs step out of
them and pick them up again with
their feet, without stopping When
leaving the house. Il a.-s4

principle, socially, morally, and politically.
Those ideas, however, were
fundamentally wrong. They rested upon the
assumption Of the equality Of the races. This
was an error. II was q sandy foundation aud
| the idea Of a government built upon it-when
the storm came, and the wind blew, II fell.
Our new government Is founded upon ex.
actly tie opposite ideas It's foundations are
laid It's cornerstone rests upon the great truth
that the negro Is not equal to the white man
that slavery, subordination 10 the superior
race, Is his natural and normal condition.
lApplause.l This, our new Government, is
the first In the history Of the world, based
upon this great physical, philosophical, and
moral truth.
These were bold utteranccs; but they
truly represented the sentiments Of the
Southern people at that time The great
question which agitates the public mind Of
the North to-day is: Have the sentiments
Of the Southern whites undergone any
change in this regard? Have they nc.
| cepted the situation? And, in view of the
recent practical disfTnnchisement of the
colorcd voters of the South, under the plea
that they are not fit to be voters, serious
doubt has arisen on this subject in the
minds of the Northern people.
And the further question naturally arises,
If the Southern whites are to be allowed to
disiranchise the cOlored voters on the
ground that they are not flt TO vote, how
long will it be until they will want to re-cn-
slaye them on the ground that they are not
fit to be free?
What future does the South look forward
to? In that future, be 1t what IL may, the
four millions of emancipated slaves cannot
but be nm important factor. Does the rul-
ing element Of the South propose that the
cmancipatcd race having all the advantages
| Of public school Cducation) shall rise in in-
| telligcnCe and culture to an intellectual
| equality with the superior race or that
they being denied all educational facilities
and all show ofequal opportunity shall re-
main in that bondage of Ignorance which
would surely in time sink them 10 their
| former bondage of slavery? The South is
TO choose between two alternatives. II will
educate the freedmen, intellectually and
morally raise them up to respectability,
honor, and intclligence-or it will keep
them down TO their present level aud re-
enslave them at the first opportunity. The
Southern whites either look forward TO q
time when the colOrcd race will be their
equal in everything, or to a time when they
troubles the minds of the old Abolitionists
of the North is that in this respect the cur
rent seems to be setting the wrong way.

THE BERLIN MISSION,

The death of BAYARD TAYLOR has left
our Mission TO Berlin as a stake for the
struggling masses Of American statesmen.
As yet the contest seems TO be confined TO
Pennsylvania, which has interpOsed an
early claim for. this estate with the ap-
parent assurance of title decd. Perhaps
this mission belongs TO Pennsylvania, and,
ii 80, 1t only shows that the largest share OF
the diplomatic mine falls to the lot of the
Keystone Of the arch. She already has the
great Mission of the wurld-that of the
Court of 81. James-and yet she is not sltis-
fed. Scarcely had the cable ceased ticking
OH the sad news Of Mr.. TAYLOR's dcceasc
before carpct-lngs' and a change of linen
came in rCquiStion in Pennsylvania for a
pilgrimage to the Mecca of America. poli-
ticiIns Of the Republican persuasion were
moro scarce in that State and more plenty
at the National Capital soon after the an
nOunccmcnt Of Mr.. TAYLOR's demise. This
diplomatic plum is wanted for Governor
HARTEANrT, and, il it is TO 20 TO that
State, We know OF no more acceptable cam
didatc. But ought not the State of Penn
sylvania to be satisfied with the Mission TO
England and its attendant benefits and
honors, without its grasping for that Of
Brrlinalso? 1t would seem that its rapacity
should be satisfied with the most highly
priced of all the Jewels in our diplomatic
casket, without demanding another; but
appearances indicate that ii is not. Such
is the range of human ambition when il
becomes pHmpercd.
Now, we can present a State and q name
that are not below candid consideration In
the disposition of this honor The State of
New York has the Russian Mission, and
may have other honors of lesser magnitude,
but she is entitled TO n iair degree OF re-
SpCct in the dispensatiOn of the honors and
trusts of this Government. The name of
Ex-Governor REUBEN T. FENTON Is enti-
tied to equal favor in making a selec-
ton for this position. Few men In the ma
tion are endowed with the peculiar attri-
butes Of qualification in diplomacy iu a
higher degree than he has developed during
an active and somewhat protrctcd public
life lie Is the incarnation OF discretion,
sagucity, and slwewdness in no ordinary de-
gree, all of which are indispensable in diplo-
matte life, aud whcn as in this instance,
they are allied TO marked ability and intel
lgence, they should bear with proper
weight in the selection Of q representative
TO the Court Of Berlin. We are not aware
that Mr., rENroN desires this distinction
but, be that as it may, we should be pleased
to have it rendered TO him, as he would
honor the position quite as much as that
would honor him. We make this as u sug-
gestion worthy of some consideration under
the circumstances.
