Heat.
--With the derivation of the word ‘"heat"’ we have nothing to do. Whether we take it as hoctu, hitle, hitze, hetta, or the good old Anglo heat, we are aware that in the month of July we have a degree of caloric not altogether pleasant, but still endurable, since we know that the unacclimated are very likely to succumb to its influence. Providentially, a few days past have brought us rains and winds; but these are more traps to catch the unwary. Let the weather be as hot as it may, there is a satisfaction in knowing that our men can stand it better than the shoemakers of Connection and One single act of making hot shot would strike terror to their very nice to say nothing of their uppers.
