time the clothes must have been stolen,
white man, with clothes under his arm,
was seen walking along Eighth street to-
wards Commercial avenue, but the loss not
having been discovered at that time, he at
tracted no particular attention, and was
lost in the passing crowd. Yesterday a
portion Of the clothes were found on the
Mississippi levee with the pockets turned
inside out, but no clue to the thief was
found by the officers of the law.

blessings and the willing obligations we
owe to others come forcibly to our minds.

-Venner, the Canadian weather proph-
ct, gets off the following in regard to the
kind of weather that may be expected this
month: "Snowfals will be universal this
season, and will extend, in all proba bility,
not only far to southwark in America, but
across to Europe The snowfall of the 18th
was marked in this respect. December
will, in all probability, open with little
snow, but the weather will be cloudy,
threatening snowfalls. During the open
ing days of the month dust, with the very
light mixture Of snow which may have
fallen, will be swept in hurrles by the gusly
wind. There will probably be some snow
from about the 4th of the month. With
the second quarter Of the month colder
weather will probably set in with
falls of snow. The farmers will
be enabled to enjoy sleigh rides in the cold,
exhilarating air, but good sleighing may
not be expected until after the middle of
the month. There will be spell Dc mild
weather about the 18th and 18th. After q
brief interval of mild weather, during
which more snow will fall, the third quar-

heavy snow.storms and consequent good

Washington, with very stormy weather
around New York and Boston.

thereby retaining the present democratic
majority in the senate. This falsehood has
created new howl in the north. 1t is
held up as another crime on the part of the
"rebels." There is not word of truth in
this last calumny. 1t is known that the
