Weather Notes,

Slightly warmer weather with
variable winds, is predicted by the
signal service bulletins this morning.
Raw, unpleasant and winterisb, but
despite all this crowds throng the
highways to buy toys, nicknacks
and Christmas presents.
The temperature was down to %
degrees here this morning, and a calm
atmosphere.
At New Orleans about sunrise this
morning the temperature was only
five degrees above freezing point, and
a fresh ten mile an hour wind blew
straight from the north. It was cold
for that line oflatitude. All along the
gulf coast away down in Texas the air
was chilly, the mercury not recording
above ifty-two degrees.
No rain or snow fell anywhere
south last night or this forenoon, but
it fell in sweeping quantities over the
north and east. In New Jersey the
snowfall is reported the heaviest ever
known, and it came down yesterday at
the rate Of an inch an hour. In
Virginia snow fell without inter.
mission for thirty-four hours. and the
storm was the seyerest known for
twenty five years. The snow storm
held up last night, and quit at all
points throughout the county, except
in the lake regions.
At Vicksburg aud Shreveport this
morning it was cold enough to form
ice, the mercury recording thirty.ono
and thirty-two degrees. 1t was below
the freezing point throughout all the
country north Of the thirty second
parallel Of latitude.

DR.. Reva has received several very
complimentary testimonials of his
medical skill. One was from Mrs
Elizabeth Chapman, No. IS Main
street, praising him in the highest
terms On account Of successful cure
Of a tumor, from which she had suf-
fered thirteen years. Miss Lizzie
Cunningham, No. IL, Old Raleigh
road, was cured by the doctor of a
tumor Of nine years standing. Frank
Riley, 26 Third street, suffered with
dropsy six months, and is grateful to
DR.. Reya for a perfect cure III ten
days. Mrs. Samuel Bryford, 103 Null
berry street, was cured in fifteen days
by the doctor Of a case Of dropsy Of
four years standing.
These are some Of the many cures
he has effected since he has been in
this city. Those who doubt these
cures can call on the parties named
at their several addresses. His card
appears in another column, stating his
professional skill in certain diseases.
The doctor is located at 1851 Main

THE NEW MAGDALEN."
1.-The New Magdalen," presented at
the theater last night by the Caven-
dish troupe, is a noble drama, and
Mercy Merrick is one of the strong
est and best acted characters seen
here in years, full of interest from
first to last. The action of the first
scene opens in an army hospital hut,
where Mercy Merrick, the nurse.
shares shelter with Grace Rose
berry, a lady of high-born ~associa-
tions, and it closes with the supposed
death of Miss Roseberry by a stray
bombshell entering the hut and Sc
%riously wounding her. But, though
injured near unto death, the lady
eventually RECEIVERS. The early part
of this act was of minor interest, Miss
Cavendish talking through it, with
her budget Of English mannerisms
in a style not altogether Ineligible
Towards the close Of the scene, how
ever, when Miss Roseberry lay appar-
emily l%ifeless, and she was tempted tC
assume her nam and place, the &C
tress made quick inroads into the
s~ympathies Of her audience By
her powerful and vigorous
expression and action. Latel
Miss Cavendish made the most Of The
varied opportunities offered by the ap
pearance OF the real Grace ROseberry
at an inOpportune time to the heroine
who had undertaken to counterfeit
her, and who was about to be uniteC
in marriage with a companion whose
elevated position would raise her IL
the social scale to an eminence shI
had not before known. In all Of tn,
