United States Senate and very promi-
nent Republican politician We make an
interesting extract from it:
"Comins up from Richmond rode in

told me ali about his farm and the negroes
on it. He had when the war broke out
about $50 slaves, old and young, Now he
has about half that number. Then
be had 1l6 able-bodied workingmen.-
Now he has about 16 on his payroll. In

In the last issue of the Spectator
over the signature of Lewis Street," ap.
peared an article which demands some no.
tice at our hands.
For the information of all right minded
people we will state the facts Of the case.
1st. AS to the ''habitual neglect" of the
night Police, to light the lamps on s'East
Lewis and Augusta streets, we will state
that the lamps on the above named streets
have been regularly lit when in condition
to be lit, but the night Police report
Book will show that the lamps on Lewis
street have been reported out of order Of
tener than all the other lamps on the
Western division put together.
I'd. AS to the disorderly conduct occur
ring On those streets-this is good argu-
ment for an increased Police force, but no
argument against the efficiency of the
present force-cOnsisting of one Chief and
three men-two being on duty in the day
and two at night. Without the aid Of
the citizens, in the shape of information
furnished the Police, it is impossible for
two men to effectually patrol every street
in the city and pick up every drunken man
as soon as he falls.
The animus prompting the communica-
ton signed Lewis Street, is SO apparent
that we should not have noticed it, except
to assert its falsehood, but for the fear
that some good citizens might be misled.

but the end of the present month, and
probably the 'firstof June. will be fall-like.
with frost again. july will be terrible
month for storms, with terms of intense
heat, but another fall-like relapse, with
frosts, will in all likelihood occur a few
days before the Goth. 1 fear the storms of
thunder and hail will be of unusual sever
ity during July. 1 must claim the verifi-
cation of my prediction relative to "a cold
wave with frosts over large portion of
the United States between the 10th and
