LOOMS, January S.h.-We have Just
passed through the most severe winter
weather known here since 1S49 Showers
of snow fell here ON Thursday and Friday,
but melted as soon as the sun appeared.
Saturday, at A. M, was the coldest, regis
tering 24o. No damage is known here.
Yearling orange trees, without any protec-
ton, are uninjured, also young figs, olives,
etc. People here are jubilant over escaping
damage from such unusual cold.
MARTINEZ, January 8th-The past three
nights have been the coolest ever expert
enced here, the thermometer this morning
registering 10. Two feet of snow on Mt
Diablo, with an east wind, makes the cold
penetrating.
YREKA, January Sth.-The unprece-
dented cold weather still continues. The
mercury was u degrees below zero this
morning, with colder temperature in the
higher attitudes. This is the coolest ex-
perienced since 1856. 1t will probably

SUPPORTING THE STRIKE.
NEW YORK, January Sth.-A meeting of
the Central Labor Union was held to-day.
Upon motion of representatives of the
Mixed Trades Section. resolution was
adopted denouncing the Reading Railroad
Company for causing the great strike of
coal miners, by which the welfare of the
entire population has been affected in rails
ing the price of coal. The support and
sympathy of the Central Labor Union was
pledged to the strikers.
"PUNGENT COMMENT"
PHILADELPHIA, January 8th.-The Record
makes this pungent comment on the strike
of the Reading Railroad Company's train
hands and colliers The Reading Rail-
road Company has adopted the policy of
silence, and the striking employees have
determined to initiate the companv's
course; and while this struggle for an ad-
vance in wages of less than twelve cents
ton shall be continued, the people of
Philadelphia will be forced to pay more
than one dollar additional for every ton OF
anthracite coal they buy"
OPINION OF GEO. W. cHILDs.
New YORK, January Sth. - George
w. Childs, of Philadelphia, being
interviewed to-day, said II think
the advance of s per cent asked for by the
miners should be granted and added to the
price Af coal, if there is no other way for
the companies to meet it 1t would make
a difference of $4,000 in the miners
wages"
THE RAILROAD PEOPLE FIRM.

New YORK, January Sth.-The Tribune.
Reading special says: The miners seem
| unanimous in their demands, and say they
will not return to work until Corbin comes
to their terms. Corbin says he is deter.
mined to conduct the railroad in its inter
ests without the aid of any labor organiza-
ton, and the merchants all over the coal
region have about made up their minds
that if they carry striking miners on their
books they will be ruined. This is sub.
stantially the position to-day, and the odds
against the miners are heavy.
There is little doubt that Corbin had de.
termined to grant the request of the miners
for continuance of the eight per cent. ad
vance, had they not taken up the fight o.
the striking railroaders whose places had
been filled by non-union men.

EXECUTIVE MANSION

WASHINGTON, January T. 1855. (
Ny Dear Mr.. Lamar: When determined TO
nominate you to the position upon the bench
of the supreme Court the personal qualification
afforded by the tender to you of so honorable
and suitable place. and the satisfactory con-
viction that an important executive duty would
be performed well, led me almost to forget
that my action involved the loss of your CON
scentious and valuable aid and service in the
Cabinet councils, which for nearly three years
have so much enjoyed and appreciated. Your
note of to-day forces me to contemplate this
continuance with the most profound and sin
cere regret. But, since that ! know the
separation you now insist upon from that con-
ception of public duty which has always
guided your conduct in Our official relations
l am constrained to accept the resignation you
tender, hoping it only anticipates your entrance
upon the discharge of higher duties than those
now relnquished. What l have thus far writ
ten seems very formal, indeed. Possibly the
close condolences and relations of positive af
fection which have grown up between US need
no expression or Interpretation, and yet find it
utterly impossible for me to finish this note
without assuring you that the things which
have characterized your conduct and bearing in
the position from which you now retire all
your devotion to your country and your chief ;
your selisacrifcing care and solicitation for the
public interest; all the benefits which your of
fetal service have conferred upon your fellow
countrymen, and all the affection towards me
personally, shall constantly remember with
tenderness and gratitude Yours, very sin
cerely, GROVER CLEVELAND.
