THE WEATIIER.-Thc disturbance which passed
over our district ON Saturday is moving into the
ocean off the Nova Scotia coast, attended by
rain, snow and increasing winds. During the
storms advance over the lower lake regions
and through the Middle Atlantic States the
tension of atmospheric electricity increased re-
markably, and lightning was frequently seen.
although not accompanied by audible thunder.
This increase of electricity was due to the sudden
changes in temperature which took place over
the districts mentioned, causing u very rapid
condensation of the atmospheric vaIor. which
IL shown by the heavy rainfall An area
of high barometer follows the disturb
ance and dominated the weather in all
the districts east of the Rocky Mountains,
except the extreme Northwest, where the press
ure was relatively low. Toward noon yesterday
the pressure began to decrease very rapidly in
Dakota and the gradients for westerly 10 south
erly winds became very steep, and last evening
storm centre moved southcastward toward
Lake Michigan. This storm centre is at present
unattended by any precipitation; but rs soon as
it has passed the lakes. where it will obtain
its store of water, rains and snow may be ex-
pected, particularly in the st. Lawrence Valley
and the New England States. The course of the
storm will be to the northward of our district. as
the high area which overlies the central valley
districts and the South and Middle Atlantic
coasts will tend to divert it in northcastcrly
direction. 1t will probably be attended by high
winds in the lower lake regions, and will be
very severe when OF Nova Scotia. Rain has

rable from Europe says that fresh gale from

the HERALD Weather Bureau to arrive on the
British and French coasts between the Dist and
23d has arrived Oh time. The weather in New
York and its vicinity to-day will be cool and
partly cloudy or fair in the morning, followed
by rising temperature and increasing cloudncss.
Tomorrow it will be warm and fair. The winds
will probably increase during the next forty
eight hours.

The loss of the French footing battery
Arrogantc, while practising with her guns
off the Isles of Hyercs during storm on
last Wednesday, furnishes another melan-
choly example to the naval authorities of
European countries OF imprudence in dis
regarding timely storm warnings. Our
despatch published on Saturday states that
'thc storm arose during firing practice and
tho Arrogante sprung q leak" This means
that the laboring of the heavy ship in the

Too Much Enterprise.

We heartily admire the great West. She
gives us wheat and border stories and
cattle and the anti-Chinese agitation and q
great many other things to cheer the heart
of man and make his stomach strong.
When, however finding the Pdcifc Ocean
between her and further territorial con-
quests she has turned her eyes east
ward and prepared to swoop down upon
our own Harlem, why, bless her she has
gone too far AS matters of enterprise it
may be excusable to squat on pleasing COR
ners OF Indian reservations and TO spirit
sundry logs from timber land that is part
and parcel of the national domain ;
but the flats along the Harlem River
are entirely different from these. We
admit that their level and consist
ency suggest chills and fever, which
is supposed to be particularly attractive to
men of Western training, but the oppor-
tunity to shake at unvarying periods is not
the exclusive right of the westerner. We
know it is claimed that the lands belong to
certain Western families by right OF entail,
they being descended from the Baron
Waldron, who practised flaming on
the Harlem many years ago,
before that stream was INSTRUCTED
by bridges aud polluted by sewers
and factory drainage. But since that time
we have had court house built in Harlem,
and bridge, and some private residences,
which the city is supposed to have paid
for, and the elevated railroad has found
its way there, and in one way and
another the place has cost the city 80 much
that the idea of its being stolidly ''squat-
ted" upon in Western fashion is-why,
really. it's too bad. Harlem elects about
two-thirds of Congressman and one and
fraction Of an Alderman, and if the
West thinks it is going to get these we give
it warning that in attempting to do so it
will assail the hottest sentiments of the
metropolitan nature. Let the West stick
to legitimate efforts ; it has long had the
monopoly of Presidents and border ruffians,
grasshoppers and champion fires !; let it
satisfy itself with these and keep its hands
off our own Harlem, which has already cost
us far more that we have got for it.

arose on Wednesday. the 10Th, was predicted
by the HERALD Weather Bureau on the 18th
in general warming. and in particular
warning on the morning of the 17th. Be-
tween the 18th and goth the weather was
very unsettled on the British. Norwegian
and French coasts, extending southwark to
the Medi erranean, and the conditions such
as to emphasize the warnings very de-
cidedly. Yet the Arrogante went out to
practice on the very day the storm was
most likely to reach Western Europe, and
was lost, with forty-seyen of her crew.
This sad event recalls tho loss of the British
war ship Eurydice off the Isle Of Wight on
the oath of March, last year. She was re-
turning from the West Indies after prac-
mel close to the English coast,
with every sail set She was suddenly
struck By u tremendous sauall with snow,
and laid over on her beam ends. Then she
filled and went down with three hundred
of her crew and invalid passengers. The
March, was, like that Of the 10th of this
March, predicted by the HEn.Lo Weather
Bureau six days ahead Had the warning
signals been displayed on the English
headlands the Eurydice might have been
saved, for her commander would certainly
not have carried sail MS he did. Ii the
French local naval authorities had needed
our warming, which is rcgu arly published
in the official meteorological bulletin, the
Arrogante might now be safe at her moor
ings.

a new home. Kansas does not require many
new farm Iaborers, and certainly not of the
class which knows little besides the way to
pick cotton. The cause of the exodus is
that the negro who aspires to be indepcn-
dent has been charged too high o rental for
land seven to ten dollars an acre being
the average price-and as the crops are
precarious, aud at best not highly
profitable. he has found himself
loser. Negro politicians have held out
glowing maps of ''free Kansas" as they did
OF Texas, and so the hegira has begun.
The Southern land owners have themselves
somewhat to blame for this condition of
affairs. No doubt rents have been too high,
and the system of giving storekeeper's
privilege on plantations to INSCRIPTIONS
men who give the negro credit in order to
swindle him is having its effect. High
rents, swindling storekeepers and negro
politicians are turning the tide toward
