NEW ORLEANS, April Z, 1883.
TEMPERATURE.
Reports from every section of the
State indicate that the temperature
has been considerably above the
normal for the past seven DAYS, or
corresponding week of former years.
PRECIPITATION.
With the single exception of a
slight shower in Orleans parish on
the evening of the 9th, no rain las
fallen in the State during the past
seven days. This absence of preci.
pitation has been very favorable for
farm work of every kind, as the soil
had been thoroughly saturated from
the excessive rains in March.
SUNSHINE.
The percentage of sunshine during
the week has been above the average
throughout the State, and has affect.
ed the growing crops very favorabIy.
GENERAL REMARKS.
The general conditio in of the
weather during the past seven days
have been all that the farmers could
have desired. The excessive rains
of March, the low temperature and
absence of sunshine greatly " retarded
farm work and seriously affected the
delaying the season fro N two to
three weeks, but the warn weather,
the abundance of sunshine and lack
of precipitation has Ell labled the
planters to make rapid progress in
spring work; planting il becoming
general, cotton is doing finely and
in many parishes corn is up.
Buffalo gnats are reported making
their appearance in tho northern
section, but as yet no da mage is re-
ported to stock.

Newspapers i'm lSSS.

From the edition Of George
P. Rowell a. Co.'S "Newspaper
Directory" published April I'd Gts
twentieth Year,, it appears that the
Newspapers and Periodicals of all
kinds issued in the United States
and Canada, now number 1870,
showing a gain of 500 during the
last IL months and of 7,l36 in 10
years.
The publishers Of the Directory
assert that the impression that when
the proprietor Of newspaper un-
dertakes to state what has been
his exact circulation, he does not
generally tell the truth is an er-
roneous one and they conspicuous.
ly offer a reward of 500 for every
instance in their book for this year,
where it can be shown that the
detailed report received from
publisher was untrue.
1he legal profession Will be inter!
ested 10 learn that Judge Ruggles,
of Wichata, Kansas, has in prepara
ton legal treatise on "The Mar
riage Relation" But the authority Of
this work may be somewhat shaken
by the fact that, during its prepara,
ton, the judge, who has wife and
children, was making love to his
young lady amanuensis, with whom
he has just eloped, after disposing Of
all his property, leaving his family
to take care of themselves. The
learned author must have peculiar
ideas Of his subject. If the teach
ings of his book are fairly illustrated
by his practices, the law Of domestic
relations must have suffered wonder.
