THE WEATHER. —This fruitful theme of conversation, has engaged the attention of men, women and children, during the past week, to the exclusion of most other subjects.lt was universally decided that, such a "heated term" had never before been known. The thermometor marked 100 deg., in Hre shade. A rain storm Tuesday evening, afforded some relief from the sweltering heat of the previous days.

SOUTHERN CENTRAL RAILROAD.— We publish to-dav several communications relating to this en terprise. It shows that the new Company have been able to acquire the old road bed north of this city upon very favorable terms. As will be seen by the report of Mr. Grant, the President of this new Company, this property has a value of from $200,- 000 to $250,000, which the new Company get for $63,900, and, at that, pay $50,000 of the amount in the stock of the new Company, The card of the commissioners to the tux-payers of this city, puts the matter for the city upon safe ground. Such a pledge by such men as Elmore I*. Ross, Adam Miller, and Charles F. Wood, will satisfy all reasonable men. With such men as J.Lewis Grant, William H. Seward, Jr., Wm. C. Barber and Charles P. Wood as Directors of the road, it must be evident to our people that the matter can never be put into safer hands. A survey is now being made from Cayuga along the shore of Cayuga Lake to Ithaca, which is in tended to unite with the proposed road from Itha ca to Towanda and the Pennsylvania coal fields.— If our people hesitate aud this route byway of Cayuga Lake should he pushed, Auburn would he left to shiver and wither in the cold. Now is the golden moment. — Auburn Advertiser. FIELD SPORTS. —A Return game of Base Hull was played between the Tioga Point Base Ball Club of Athens, and the Winona Club of To wanda, on the grounds of the former 011 Wednes day last. The day was clear but very warm, but the game was played with much spirit, the Tioga's proving the winners by a score of 48 to 30. The very best spirit prevailed during the game between the con testants. At its conclusion a handsome boquet was presented by the ladies of Athens, through the i'resident of the Tioga's, to the winning club, also one to the second best. In the evening the two clubs, with invited guests, sat down to a full board spread by mine host of the Exchange, to which ample justice was done.— There toasts, speeches and songs, made several hours pass by most pleasantly. We were never at a similar gathering where everything passed off so agreeable and pleasant in every particular. To the President, the Committee of Arrangements, and each individual member of the Tioga's, the Winona Boys feel very grateful for the pleasure of having had so good a time. We understand a third and Trial Game is to be played within two or three weeks, between these two clubs at Burlington. Below we append the score of the game played at Athens: TIOGA POINT. WINONA. O.
