The coolest weather that we ever eKper.
fenced on the eve of June visited this seq
ton last Wednesday night and Thursday.
A'severe storm Wednesday evening cooled
the atmosphere to an uncomfortable degree
and for the next twenty-fOur hours the
mercury in the therein ometer lowered about
the freezing point. In fact there was quite
frost Thursday night, and in some places
ice was formed, but we have heard Of no
special damage to the growing crops or
garden truck. The temperature has since
resumed its normal condition and the indi-
cations are that the hot weather will soon be
upon us.
A party of miscreants forcibly entered tina
Academy Of Music on last Thursday night
night and stole therefrom lot Office cream,
cake, and other eatables that had been stored
there that night by the Methodist folk at the
close of their festival. The thieves, who
ever they were, have not been apprehended.
This is not the first time that an offense of
this nature has been committed andit's high
time that something should be done toward
the detention of the perpetrators. Making
examples of a couple of the leaders of the
gang, by imposing rat her lengthy Jail senten-
ees would aid wonderfully in supprsssing
these depredations.
We understand that a certain hungry Re-
publican of this vicinity is, and has been,
ever since the election, sending copies of
the REGISTER to Washington service we
we would have done for hum with pleasure
at the regular subscription rate, 81. so year
in advance. The purpose is Of course evil
dent, and we have no objection. The REG
IsTER is good orthodox Democratic paper, |
and may be read even by Republicans with
profit. 1t is all right, so you do not send
forced editorials, such as was sent to Hon.
John Sherman some eighteen months ago in
the interest of James III. Chase, then incum
bent of the land office here. Will the gen.
tleman referred 20 please send copy Of this
issue, marked?
