set in on the 10Th ult., and contin-
ued to increase for eleven or twelve
days, the mercury in most places
reaching to 100 degrees and be-
yond, stands almost without prece-
dent for its intensity. We are used
to hot spells every summer of two
or three days, but not for ten days
or two weeks on a stretch. The
summer that the late spell is COM
pared with is mostly that of 1876
the Centennial year-but even here
this year takes the lead in intensity
the breeziless nights being as ex-
haustive as the days, as sleep was
almost an impossibility. In city,
country, seaside or mountain
height, the same wall came for a
cooling breeze, and when it came
in the gust of Friday night it was
only a partial lowering of the
temperature, but was enough that
the backbone of the heated term
had been broken"-and the blister
ing furnace-like heat had been
softened by a shade of moisture.
John B. Cooper, who has been
keeping an account of the weather
for a number of years says he has
record of but one day only so hot
as Tuesday of last week, and that
was in 1877. But everybody re-
joices that the worst is over and
that the brown pasture fields and
following corn have resumed their
normal green color.
