close of Yesterday, but the clouds passed
around this city and settl lied over the
vicinity of Shepherds, on the opposite
side of the river. There was but . bare
suspicion of rain in this city and the
clouds were soon dissipated. The sunset
was beautiful and the clear blue sky
rejecting in the river made the Potomsc,
which was dish-calm, resemble Swiss
lake. There was but little change, how
ever, in'the temperature and the weather
continued suluy. Similar conditions
prevailed today.
