Louis, Mo,, July 17.—The prospect was more cheerful at dawn to-day than it had beon o this city for a weok, Tho long-dreaded Tueaday predicted by Tice to be the hottest scen {o 8t. Louls for 100 years had passed, aud, although the mortality comprised over thirty cases, with more than 100 edditional cases of greater or less fntensity, people foit grateful that it was no worse, and looked hopefully forward to a change for the better to-day. ‘Theso expectations wers Justifiod by the ncws that appeared in the morning pavers to-day. The aunouncewent that a change of twenty degrocs lad occurred at 8loux City brought relief to many hearts, who hoped that the lawa of meteorology would briug some beueflt of tho atmospheric change to Bt. Louis. The fresh breuza that prevalled in many parts of the city seemed to conflrm the joyful expectation that the heated termn had come to s close, for the present at lenst. g AB THE MORNING WORMN OX, IOWRVER, tho breezo began to lull, and it was discovered that tho mercury mounted higher than ft did at the corresponding hours of ‘yesterday, Thermometers were perbaps nover more anxiously consultcd, mod the steady rise of the mercurial Indicatfons filled the minds of the people with grave apprehensions, ‘The greatest precaations were everywhere used, and to this prudenca s uudoubtedly due the deerease jo the mortallly rate. The scencs on the streets wers much the same o8 wers wit- nessed on yosterday, Onthe thickly-peopled thoroughfarcs, where the populace necessarily uoved to and tro, the strects looked hike o sea of moving umbrellas, every pedesirlan being provided with one of thoss sun-protectors as welt as a palm-leaf fan, TUR XPFECT ON BUBINESS GENERALLY Wwas more than on yesterday arked, and threatened to becomae serious {n tho higheat de- gree. Along the levee, Maln, and Second streots, and the portlon of tho eity devoted to wholesale business, the atruets wore alinost de- scried, and business houses worc a Babbath- mory aspect. But few men were to ba seen on tho strects, and these moved aloug with o sluggishness that was far from suggestiug bual- ness basto and promptitude. Business, always dutl ot this season of the year, is reduced, ex- cent In s fow branches, to absoluto stagnation, Along Bixth and Severthstreets and on Morgun to Waalilngton the teuement huuses were deavrt- cd, Windowa and Qoors stood wide open, amd the micn and women were on the duorsteps and pavement, not to miss the cooling breeze which Was walted along the scorched streets. Many of the woinon were noticed with wet tofjjs aud bandkerchisle on thelr heads, ‘TUN QIOUPS SAT MOTIONLESS and lstless. No cooversation was {ndulged In, That would bave been too great an effort. Nuwbers of clildren wero lylug around fn the shade ucarly nude. The storea and shops in this quarter were entireiy deserted, and the owners sat at the dovra dozing, or engaged in valu attempts to keep coul. At uearly every store meo and wowen were sitting, doiug nothiog but catebiug the refresning breeze, und Lusiuess was left to take caru of jtsclf, In fact, thers was no business to take care of, Tha scorching, exhaustiug heat drove every subject but the fdea of kesping cool out of every one's bead. Your correspondent ywho called st the Mechanies' Exchange, was fn. formed by Mr. Stamps, the Secretary, that bullders sud contracturs wore undertaking as little work as possible, snd wera ocly pushing thoss jobs forward which were already under contract, Even ln theso cases, they found extreme citficulty on wccount of the dislne clivation of men to risk thowr lhealth in the weather.

At 8 o'clock elght patients wers brouglit in at one time, the most of them raviog like magmen, and requiriug two of more men to hold them. A great crowd was at the Duspensary all day to wituess the aogular sight, and to gaze on the victims asthev were burhe (ato the cvol hallway to be be douched withice and otherwlss restored. At suurise this moroiog there were only five bodies In THR MOROUE, the graater part of the bodies having been re- moved during tue night for burlal. Crowds of men, women, and chlldren gathered to look through the heavy glass windows and gazo at the stll, stark corpscs that lay on the marble slahs befors themn, The lient from the background, reflected from a ycllow-painted wall, shied a golden lustro over the inanimate musees of blackenad flesh covered with cotton cloths, exposed lero apd there In all thelr Iideousness, and preserved from decay only by chunke of jce placed over thelr bodies and stoulders. Tho corfses steadily augmented, howerver, and, duriog the day and night, os many as twenty bodics were expinged on the marble alabs.” These will be buried to-night, nestly all In the potier’s fleld. as they ara un- ‘| kuown, or belung to tho pauper classes, so far as known, O PROMINENT CITIZEN wns {atally stricken durlug the day, but scveral were prostrated.

The factorics and machige-shops con- tisued partially suspended during the day,— in fact, It was virtually impossible for artisans who labor near furnaces to prosecute their ordi- nary work, Work was susponded on the Carou- delet branch of the Iron Mountain Raflroad, the Juborers refusing to risk their Jives in the sun, The strect-car horses suffered greatly during the day, Five dropped desd, and others wers prostrated and taken from the hartiess.
