Westhercocks were to me mere idle toys, but now they buve a significance —a mesning which is fraught with terrible pos- sibilities.” It will be seen at a glance that it *was the manager of a theatre who was talking ‘fo this way. and, nest to a weathercock, 2 manager Is perhaps the Dlest liv- ing hafometer. If Hooley sees a cloud ‘m0 bigger than 2 man’s band in the sk, he espies n pussible burricane, and mvites s friends to join hiw in a ram puuch But when _bleak, stagnant blueness, cloudless, * breezeless inactivity overarches humanis then - hetakes a lemanade and roes home 10 bed, puts jce-water to the base of his brain, and thinks that eversthing is rupidly going 10 the devil. So do many people who are uot manasers. *Yesterday was a day of bopes and fears, It was breezy for a while, and the’ b seemed “to be coming from the ‘right sirt. The “*tairt” wss sl right, only the breere didn't come on, and the people Wwere ouce more plunized into gloom. The hizh temperature was “modificd Ly occusionnl broezes, and, on the * whole, the citizens—those who 100k proper pre- ‘contions smainst tbe heal—had no reason to pe agituted about the weather. It was whole- some throughout the day, and in the evemne particularly balmy and reireshing. THE TEMPERATURE, -as observed by Manassee, optician, TRIRUNE Boilding, for the week ending July 20, was as _Tollows, 1n the shade: Franear o [ obserra- | aten., | Tues., ! Wod..

A NEW IDEA. .~ It was the fashion, a few vears avo, to dose sunstruck patients with spirits. If 2 man fell “down near & drug store or saloon, some local good Samaritan used to rush up with a glass of whisky and water, or brandy. and pour it down ‘the sufferer’s throat, repeating the dose if it scemed necessary. The result was that men ‘who had more thirst than honesty or moner, “were 1n the havit of falling dowa in front of a saloon, and being irrizated by the charitable. But the jee treatment came into vogae, and swept this industry out of the world. "1t must huve been 2 survivor of the band who Dsea to sham sunstroke - for drinks who devisea a neat and creditable dodec ‘whith was successfully carried out yester- day evening in front of IHenderson's liquor-store, on the northwest corner of Chica- ro avenue snd Clark street. About 9 a2 man rolled over on the sldewalk. There was an immediate rush of people, armed tith chunks of iceand pitchers of cold wuter. The “store was deserted, all running out to see the sufferer and the treatwent. After several ‘quarts of ice-water bad been emutied on him and a kind friend bad shoved & lump of fce un- der his sbirt-collar, he ot up, looking some- ‘what bewildered, and asked the way to Clark street bridee, saving he wanted to go there. All insisted that he Was uot sble to travel, but he vowed he was, and shot ofl into the darkness: Just as be was disappearing, one of the proprie- tors went back mto the store, aud saw a man sliding out of the side door, and an empty tilf Iying on the fioor. He ruised a pro- digions uproar and started o pursuit, but could not catch the thief, who got off with about $30, the day's receipts, and probably divided it with the Sunstruck man on some ‘neighboring corver. The moral of which is that charity should lovk up the mouvey-drawer before going out 1o relieve the sunstruck. THE TOTAL NUMBER OF DEATHS by supstroke reported ar the Eealth-Office for the week bas been forty-four. The total bum- ber of deatbs from all causes during the same period bas been very uearly 400. Twenty-four burial-permits - were ijssucd yesterday, _the following beine in cases of sunstroke.. They are the only additional ones to those reported ip yesterday's paper: August Stoliz, age 36, No. 21 Jackson street; Charies Peltz, age 44, ‘No. 166 Clybourn avenue: FrantzG.

It is WasmINGTOX, D. C., July 20.—In response to the arreular issued avout the middle of the week avenue and Architect Baumany, and clerk the jueurance office of E. E. Rrau & Co., - .dedded improvement on previous days, but one | & worthy of note that the physicians at_the hos- notifying banks that they could receive silver Qollars for greenbacks upon application at the Treasury, calls for about a quarter of_a million have been received, chiefly from the East, as there bas been time for the circulur to reuch ouly a limited rezion. This response is consid- ered very favorable at the Departinent, and an’ indication that 2 very fair amount of this coin- age will be thus distributed throuzhout all sections of the couniry. The Secretary of the Treasury to-day addressed a letter to the Post- Office Department upou the subject of traus- mittiog coin as third-class mail-matter, the object being to save the present cost of traasportation by express. The matter was par- pital “sav the cases received by them from the Dispensary were in better condition -than those received from other sources, and fewer of them dled. This secms to arue in favor of the treatment adopted at the Dispensa- Ty, although it has been cniticised to some de- gree, and 1t was unquestionably herofe in the Tuliest sensc of that term. . The total number of heat cases received at the Hospital to last_uight was - niucty-two, of which only nine died. From tnese statements it will be seen that about 90 per cent of the deaths by heat have been in private practice, or were of those per- sons who were suddenly-and fatally stricken down, or were found deud in bed. It may be fuirly stated that, while the heated term is by no means abated, and i Vil there has been nos . immediate | tially considered yesterday in Cabinet meeting, dinjnishient for several -duys, yet {t { and the understanding was that the Post-Ollice authorities should take the matter into imme- diate consfderation, and - determine what adi tional meuns would be necessary to lusure tae sate transportation of cofn in this manner. There is a probability that methods will' be de- vised by which the whole business of * transport-, ing coin on Government account will be carrled on in the future by the Post-Office De- partment. It is believed to Dbe possible to de-: vise such safeguards for this kind of transporta- tion as Will justify private parties also in mak- ing use of the mails for this purpose. BEVENUE DECISION. In the controversy which has arisen between the Commissloner of Internal Revenue and cer- tain manufacturers of cizars who are ut thc same time retail-dealers, the Attorney-General bas rendered a decision sustaining Commis- sioner Raum. In the case of those in Balti- more, where certain manufacturers earricd on their business in the same building in whicn thelr retail establishment was situated, the Commissioner directed that permanent parti- tions should be erected between those portions of the buildings devoted to the manufacture of clgars and the salesroom. Some of those in- terested carried the case betore a Maryland court, which decided that the law aid mot ustify the Comnissioncr in suck an order. The Commissioner declined to modify his order upon the decision of the court, aud re- ferred the case to the Attorney-Geveral for an opiuion, with the result indicated. TUNTON-ALEXANDER. ~ ° The weather has moderated sufliciently to allow the peoole to enjoy the ludicrous features of the so-calied Hunton-Alexander chaile Alexander has declined to say whether he fight Hunton, saying that no vue living knows what he mav do in this respect, and Intimating very clearly that be does- mot know himselt. Hunton bas ended his portion of the coatro- versy, thus: 1 have given this inaividunl an opoortonity to show he 15 2 zentleman aud 2 man of conrage, but he has nov done me tue justice of the one or been willing 10 accord me the " redress of the other. He refuses 10 come from the protection of the police, which he affects to despise. and I cannot reach him without exposing friends to the Penitentiary 1therefore proclaim him a malicious liar, vule: blackruard, atfd an irresponsible coward. The public 1s therefore assured that 1 shall take no further notice of Columbus Alexander or any pub- liestions from him. ° - - All of which Atexander declares that he throws right back in the’ teeth of Hunton. Meantime, upon the question as to whether Hunton has incapacitated himsell from lmldillg aov oflice under the layws, of Virziuia, on whether this iuvolves his ‘candidatnre for Con- eress is construed by some of his lenal friends in Alexandria as fn uo wise affectinz his- eligi- bility for electiun to Congress; dn two grounds: first, tuat being a memberof bongrcss is not to hold an oflice within the meining of the laws of Vireinia, and, secoud, that Hunton’s letter to Alexunder, in which be calls-Alexander’s atten- tion to the fact that they “are both Virginians. and invites him to come over and settle their difieulty in the Otd Virzlnia' tashion, 15 not neeessarily a challenge at alli-when analyzed for purposcs of lewsl procecdings.

For this purpose seeds of. the dest kinds. have been larzely imported from Malwab, m Hin- -dostan, where the best Enst Indta -opium is made. * All that is required is a rich soil and curcful weeding. Tne Company, chiefly con- | sistiog of Englizh and Anglo-indian copitalists, bas - ‘also obtained *the exclusive right for twelve ie“s to export opium -frec of duty through all the custom-houscs of the Province of Mozambique.” Considering the evils. which the use and abuse of opium: have caused in Asta, particularly in China, intowhich the Anglo-Indlan *traders smupgted large quantities, the declaration from. Mozambique, it is satlsfaciory to learn that the poppy plauts are thriving, and the fruits are reported to be larger than those produced in the best opium districts of Iudis,” sounds ratherroughly on tire ear of humanity. The Anglo-Indian Government ought to be held responsible for the acts caused by the pro- duction of opium for consumption In Chins, the Birmau Empire, and the Islands in the Straits of Malucca. On the banks of the Ganges s one district, 12.000 square miles in extent, where the poppy is exclusively cultivated. Its orowin is -also “encouraged in the more northern parts of Hmdostan.

Aboat 70.000 chests - of this deleterions, becanse intoxicating, drug are soumally pro- dnced in Indfa. Of these China consumes 60,000, and the tax thercon brings about $50,- 000,000 per anaum into the Treasury of British India. In 183, the Chinese authoritfes de- manded the surrender of all the opium then fn the tactories at Canton, and seized 20,253 chests, then worth about $5,000,000.

Another traid was coming alon:t fn the same direction upon _the track of the. Delaware & Lackawanna. It ulso was bounding under a wad impulsion, and the smoke-stack upon its locomutive was emitting a shower of sparks. Passengers then saw thas there was a race. The track of the Delaware § Lackawanna Road mukes 3. sweep southward just bevond Jersey City, and for the rest of the distance to Newurk runs parallel with and only a few feet separated from the Pennsyvivania track, When the passenzers caught sight of the rival train it was thundering down the carve, seemingly bent on striking their own at right angles. But in 2 minute it turned. and'tbe two locomotives were dashiug oward Newark neck and neck. For 3 moment neither drew a jot ahead of the other. It was an unpleasant, and vet a fuscinating sensation. The corches flew straioht as a die, swerving not a hair’s breadth eirher to the right or to the left, striking the roadway only at intervals, flagellating the iron rails wi ficree, sharp blows, and sceming bent on strik- ing them in twain. Passeogers looked at one auother out of their respuctive windows in an alarmed wav, as if wondering which would be aonihilated first. . The Delaware & Lackawanoa firemao threw oven the door of his furbace and gorged it with coal. In response a million sparks few from the fan- nel and dapced backward, mingling brilliantly with another million out of the funnel of the sounding Penvsylvaniau. Both locomotives binzed avd roared, and the wheels of tne cars flving after themn round terrible music out of the iron track and struck fiery blows at every bound. So near together were the two trafus that the passengers could almost have shaken hauds across. But they were rival passengers now, and glowered at one another under the fler,; veil which the locumotives threw bark- ward. : When the Delaware & Lackawanna. fire- mau had fed bis beast, a louder roar came down from the Pennsylvaniz iron horse, and it was knowp that the other fireman bad done likewise. The change for 3 moment was hardly perceptible. It seemed as though, after the manner of racing buats, first one loco- wotive and then the other was making mortal spurts, drawing for the instant = jot ahead, and then falling a jot behind. - Like the boats, 00, to the passengers v the Pennsyivania train, their flyioe rival seemed at intervals to Jift fnto the air under its terrible impulses, and to fly unsupported sheer and clear,aoove the track. The whole locomotive shook and quivered as it a power lind been let loose in 1t which was on the point of burstinz it asunder, and the funnel rottled and roared with the mortal gasps which drew upward tbrougl it from ~the torturea ' interior. But then, astue swirl of sparks grew thicker and made 3 marvelous canopy over both trains, passenzers saw that the massive Penosylvania was steadily drawing abead.” A window of the last Delaware & Lackawanoa car dropped out of sight.and another and another,until the whole carwas wone. This performancs was gradualiy continued until tue rear car of the Pennsyl- vaniun was on a line with the Delaware & Lack- awapua's locomotive. i “Then the driver of the latter waved his hand after the muuner of a defeated;man, und let the steam whistle from his yexed boiler fhroush all the scapes, while Lhe ireman again threw open tue door.of his farpace, and .the Delaware & Lackawanna . train dropped instantly out of sizht.

To-morrow morning the Producers’ Union will issue au address setting forth the olan in detail. The movement to suspend oper- ations has been abandoned on acconnt of the larze number of workingmen who would there- by be thrown . out _of employment. The new plan is to sell all oil produced, amounting now to 40,000 barrels per day, through one avency, under the control of the Union. A larze num- ber of subordinate lodees are organized in the ofl region, and euch of these will buy the entire production in its immediate locality and turn it over to the ceutral agency, there to be put on the market as the consumption of the world may demand it. The surplus production will be'held in reserve unul such tinie 4s it is wanted ata fair price.
