 THE SEASON. We need not inform our readers hereabouts, of the great heat which ore vailed here for three or four days prece- ding yesterday nor how great was tha re- iiet experienced by the change of temper at'are which took nlnee in the night between Thursday and yesterday. For the inlor. nation of distant readers we may say, how- ever, that the thermometer, iii shade and st distance from the sun, has stood as high, at 6 o'clock, \. M. as o2 at 3 r. ii. at 92 and at 9 X. M at e6. Yesterday morning, at 6, it had fallen below TO, 9ow- ing 10 change of the wind to the north, il which quarter there has been rain lately.--- Cur District readers, who have been suffer- Ing, will be perhaps curious 10 know how i, has fared with the Eastern cities. The fol- lowing paragraphs are from New York pa- ppers Of "Wednesday afternoon:

 lFrom the Evening Star.l The heai, in our recollection, has never been so extreme as yesterday The ther- mometer was 96, in Broadway, in the shade; and what perhaps never occurred here be- fore, 1t was, as we can testify, at 9l, as late as halfpa 6 r. M. This extreme hot weather commenced with Monday, and con- tlnues to-day. It is usual with these excess sive heats, like those of cold, to last no lon- ger in our climate than three days so that tomorrow '@ae :a.a.ay promise ourselves cool air again, to revive us from our sufierngs. From the Journal of Commerce. Wa,mer ys. Warmer.-At 8 o'clock this morning the thermometer stood at s6 in the shade. Now at 92. The oppres- sion of the heat IS little relieved by mods crate breeze from the sea. But for thls, the temperature would probably be nearly or quite up to blood heat. As it is, several persons have lost their lives, and several horses have been killed or rendered use- less. Two hod-carriers in Broom street drank freely of cool water this morning while in a state of violent preparation, and 1 died in a few minutes.
