from the south and southwest through.
out. This morning the mercury re-
corded so at sunrise, the breeze being
gentle from the west. Next to Gal
weston, Texas, where's pleasant south
west breeze prevailed, this was the
hottest place south of the Ohio at sun
up. A light rain fell at Nashville and
Louisville this morning, and showers
are predicted to-day over the Ten.
nessee and Ohio valley country, but
it is very uncertain whether or not
we will have a shower here. There
was evidently thunder showers fifty to
a hundred miles north of us about
dark last night, as clouds banked
along the horizon and sent forth vivid
flashes Of sheet lightning. In the
lower Mississippi valley to-day the
winds will be from the north and
west quarters, not likely to be follow
ed by rain. The only sections Of the
country where local showers are ex-
pected to-day are in the Tennessee
and Ohio valleys, as mentioned
above, in the lower lake region, anC
in the New England states.
