THE WEATHER.
What tue SigaaI Servie Bulletins
Tell Us.

The temperature yesterday ranged
from Is to Is degrees and was below
the freezing point throughout the
day. 1t thawed only on the south Of
places where the sun could have a fair
chance to throw its beams full upon
it, and last night the earth and the
snow froze hard and crisp, while the
air was sharp and biting cold. No
thaw to-day and clouds obscure the
sun.
The indications for this afternoon
and tonight are, winds mainly from
the north, but shifting to the south
west a little more, more moderate
temperature and cloudy skies. Light
SHOWS are probable for the upper
lakes aud the upper Missouri river
country districts, and the temperature
will stay below freezing point north o.
the Ohio river. Light rains are indi-
Gated in the south Atlantic regions
Along the gulf coast this morning the
temperature was 80 to 80 degrees

Deep Devotion.

Before the police court this morn
ing stood a darky named Pleasant
Small and his wife Ann. His face is
a familiar one to the police. Beyond
the Oldest member Of the force Pleas,
as he is called, has been in the habit
Of getting on periodical sprees. When
sober, he is one Of the trustiest of
servants, is polite, attentive and in
dustrious, but when under the inau-
ence of drink, is a very demon incar-
nate. During late years Pleas has
drank deeper than aver before, being
drunk longer than sober. He is ar
rested about twice every month and
fined from ten to twenty-five dollars,
hut he never served more than a few
days for the city in payment Of his
fines. Through all these years his wife
has chung to him, supporting him and
with her hard-won earnings paying his
fines. She has paid not less than 5000
in this way for him and vet
never murmured; bat the instant
re is released takes him home with
her and strives with all her strength
to keep him sober. When himself,
Pleas is kind to her and their children
and his promises to reform are taken
by her in good faith each time. Yes
terday he got drunk again and was
arrested, His wife told her story to-
day in the most touching language.
She Is tall and black and ugly and
ignorant, but the fires of devotion
kindled her face as she spoke and
s%oftened the heart Of the Judge.
When Pleas was last before the court
he wal promised a fifty dollar fine
when he came again, but SO touching
was her appeal in his behalf, he was
allowed to go with a light fine.

On Monday afternoon last, in the
circuit court, sitting at 0sceOla, Mis-
sissippi county, Arkansas, ninety miles
above this city. Judge L. L. Mack
sentenced Cal Hughey to be hung for
the part he had in the murder Of old
John Broadway, near the foot Of
Island 40, during the latter part Of
October, 1879, a little over a year ago.
Hughey's case has been appealed by
his attorneys to the supreme court Of
Arkansas, but legal gentlemen who
have taken an interest in the matter,
arc Of opinion that there is nothing
in the record to save the man, aud
that his life is certain to payforfeit for
his crime. The 18th day of January
is the time appointed for the hanging,
and the site is likely to be in or near
the town. of 0sceola. Hughey is a
man about thirty. seven years Of age,
and he has a wife and several children
living near Wolf Island, in Missouri
some twenty miles south of Cairo.
The killing of old man Broadway
was a most horrible affair, and was
especially marked for its cruel atroci-
ty, the object being robbery. Four
men were implicated, one named
Ford, a Middle Tennessee youth, hav-
ing been hung some time ago at Ma
rion, as his friends claimed, unjustly.
One other turned states evidence,
and still another broke jail and es-
capped. The two latter aud Mr.
Hughey are believed to have all
richly deserved hanging.

THE OPERA.

The representation of Verdi s popu-
lar opera of I'll Trovatore" at the
theater, last night, may be fairly
counted a success, if the manner in
which the large and refined audience
received the lyric play can be taken as
a criterion. The leading role of Leo
nora was carried by Miss Julia Rose
valid, a musical soprano Of good quail
ity and fair yocalization, who sung the
part in a very enjoyable manner and
proved fully equal to the demands of
the character. She makes an artistic
Leonora both in acting and singing.
Her voice is clear andmusical stirring
the feelings by its dramatic qualities
aud making a most agreeable impress
sion. Indeed, in several of the most
trying arias she surprised the audi.
ence with her skill, power and melo-
dious sweetness, and floral tributes in
lavish quantities, as we'll as liberal APP
plause, rewarded her splendid efforts,
Mrs. Seguin proved a strong aud pic
turesque Azucena, excelling in
declamatory passages and ac-
quitting herself with credit in
the arias. Signor Brignoli's Manrico
was rather tame nthe earlier scenes,
but towards the close he g to gran
deur and was superb in the las. act.
In the trio of the first act his voice
rang out in magnificent tones and his
vocal exploits in the "Di Quella Pira'
electrified the audience, receiving .
recall as a reward for his beautiful
work. Mr.. james made a very good
Count di Luna and sang III Balen''
with good effect The chorus and or
chestra we're, as usual, efficient, and
the opera as a whole was splendid
lyric treat.
