The Terrible HeNt in New York.

New YORK, Aug After the discomfort of
the previous three days the temperature of yes
terday was an agreeable relief to all The
heavy rain of the early morning cooled the at
mosphere, to the enjoyment of those who had
suffered during the last few days, and valnlv
sought for sleep at night The heavy rain did
other good service, cleaning the streets
and the cutters of decayinS substances.
which had begun to smell vlllalnously
In the afternoon there were several thunder
showers which cooled the air, although by no
means adding to the enjoyment of the pleasure
seekers, many of whom returned to town IN
drenched aud limp condition. The Tribune
this morning says certificate of deaths which
we're sent to the bureau of vital statistics yester
day show 14S persons died in this city Saturday
afternoon and Yesterday morning. In about
sixty cases death was either caused or has
tened by the heat which prevailed last week
Such was the opinion of physicians by whom
the certificates were signed. The heat had the
effect of increasing the fatality in cases
of diphtheria and scarlet fever IN
marked manner, although the rec
ords of the health department do
not indicate that there has been any sudden
increase in the number of persons dying of
these maladies yet the number of persons who
have died from them the last three DAYS is so
large as to be matter of surprise. About a
dozen children died from diphtheria and scar
let fever on Saturday. DR.. Hewster, who re-
ceiyed certificates of death yesterday, said the
mortality from the contagious diseases ap-
peared to be as great in such hot weather as III
the cold days of winter.

brothers, now confined in the Minnesota peni-

old citizens of Missouri who know the boys and
their families, with view of submitting them
to Gov. Pillsbury of that state; A correspondent
had quite an interview with the old gentleman,

their release. He says the boys, Cole, James

long. He adds that the boys declare if they get
out they will leave the country and shun their

The idea that citizens of the United

erty' shocks a good many people, but it
should be recollected that English manu-
