The abundant snow which fell npon our
city last week stimulated its sluggish life
into the wildest and freest action. Thoughts
of bankruptcies and defalcations, war abroad
and famine at home, were charmed away
for the nonce by the jingling of sleigh bells
and the dashing of 2.40 roadsters over the
glittering snow. Nothing respectable in
the way of a “ turn out ” was on hire for a
less price than $5 per hour, and many a
youug gentleman of large desires but small
income had to be contented with a tarn in
an "Omnibus while inwardly pining to handle
the ribbons himself beside the Matilda or
Laura of affections. But alas! on Sunday
came a rain through the day unceasingly,
and bringing to light again the accustomed
dirt of the streets. The old noises, too,
which the snow fail had muffled, have
waked, and to-day we have the rumble of
wheels over the stones and through the
slush, and the brief merry carnival is over.
The Canada brings the gratifying intelli
gence that the protocol of the Allies, with
the interpretation of the “ Four Points,” to
which we alluded in our last as affording
a prospect of peace, lias been accepted
by the Czar. This will afford the basis of
negotiations but meanwhile the war contin
ue, and while crowned heads at ease at
home are striving to outwit each other in
diplomacy, thousands of subjects who have
no personal interests in the quarrel will die
amid the horrors of battle or fall stricken
by the diseases of an vinhospitable climate.
And this in the 19th century.
“ Straws tell which way the wind blows,”
and the disordered state into which foreign
causes operating with reverses at home have
thrown commerce and finances may be in
ferred from the fact, that the imports of for
eign dry goods at this port alone are $4,-
000,000 less during the present month than
in January, 1854, showing a falling off of
nearly 60 per cent. Our capitalists have
been paralyzed partly by real, partly by
imaginary financial dangers, and doubtful
which way to take when all seemed hazard
ous, have done nothing. It gives us pleas
ure to record that the improved condition of
the money market, which we stated in our
letter of last week to exist, still continues.
The sales of bank shares during the week
have been active with improved rates;
good business paper passes easily among
the brokers at from 9 to 12, and in some in
stances favorite securities are commanding
loans of the banks nt 0.
The nine days wonder of the failure of
Page & Bacon, of St. Louis, is losing its in

of prudent business men.

Let not the prospect of an early peace
deceive the planter into the belief that prices
of Cotton will necessarily, in that event,
greatly rise, or prices of provisinos greatly
fall. Though the war should terminate to
morrow, it would be a long time before a
material change could be effected in the
causes now regulating prices.
To diminish the production of Cotton and
raise an increased quantity of provisions
would, at all events, be a safe policy.
Tlie Joint Commission on Eugltsli and
American Claims.
The joint commission for the settlement
of American and British claims, which has
been sitting in London for some months,
was to have closed its business the 15th,
when the commissioners would make report
to their respective governments. No com
mission between the two nations has ever
considered and decided so many important
questions. By the provisions of the con
vention, all claims against either govern
ment, arising out of any transaction since
the treaty of Ghent up to the 15th of June
last, might be submitted for the decision of
the commissioners, and whether submitted
or not, are henceforth buried.
The most interesting cases decided by the
commission, were those relating to slaves, in
American vessels cast away on the British
Islands, in the West Indies. In the cases
of the brigs “Creole” and “Enterprise,"
chains were put in for damages in liberating
slaves on board these vessels at the Bahama
and Bermuda islands, compelled to put in
there, the one on account of mutiny among
the slaves, the other by stress of weather.
The commissioners disagreed on the allow
ance of these and other similarolaiins. . The
duty of pronouncing upon their validity,
therefore, devolved upon the umpire, who
decided them all in favor of the American
claimants. In the case of the “ Oriole” he
awarded the sum of $112,130 ; in the case
of the “ Enterprise,” $48,000, and in the
case of another vessel, $16,000.
There were several cases of seizures of
fishing vessels, arising under the treaty of
1818. The cases all turned upon the con
struction of that treaty. The t. nited $tates
have contended that their vessels had a right
to fish anywhere beyond three miles from
the shore, while the British government
maintained that they must keep out three
miles beyond a line drawn from one head- |
land to another. By this construntion they
closed the Bay of Fundy, sixty miles wide j
and one hundred and fifty miles long, j [j m .- ] ar g e or small that force is of little mo

There is nothing further relative to the in

the affair at Tultsha, recrossed the Danube.
A Vienna dispatch says that Count Buol

Russian Invasion of India.
The rapid expansion of Russia at the
North has excited the alarm of the British
residents in India. Alluding to the subject,
the Del hi auUt saj's:
“ We have been accustomed to believe
that Russia was ‘too far off' ever to disturb
our peace. And yet there is evidence, hard
ly now to be gainsaid, that Russia is rapidly
becoming pos.-essed of the whole Doab of
the Jazartes and the Oxus, a country which
for ten centuries of history and twenty more
of tradition has supplied India with invad

An argument in favor of total depravity
was furnished by about 500 of tlie “fancy,”
who were crowded into a sub-cellar in the
Bowery to see a “Royal main” or cockfight,
at $500 per side. Tickets of admission were
$1—and 19 cocks were killed outright. On
last Saturday about 300 gentry of the same
stripe crowded in a cellar in 1st avenue to
witness bear baiting, badger and coon
drowning, wolf hunting and rat killing.—
When the poor brutes, faint from loss of

will take out something more than two hun
dred thousand dollars in specie. These cir
cumstances, however, are not calculated to
produce the least uneasiness, in view of the

remarkable smallness of our exports from

Not a sound was heard save a cashier's wail,
As the last doubloon was counted;

When he froui bis desk dismounted,

And the payer refused to pay;
I The attorney, he turned away to the door.
And tho runner, he run away.
j And short were tho oaths of the President,
As lie fumbled amid thc dross,
And filling his pouch, as he always meant,
He charged it to profit and loss.
Not a single qualm disturbed his breast
On account of the slight default;
He swept the board of all that was left.
And locked up the empty vault.
’Tis said at night a parting wail
Re-echoed from wall to wall,
And troubled ghost of aspect pale,
Alight be seen in thc banking hull;
At times it will perch on the marble dome,
Or hide in the discount closets,
And often exclaim, in a solemn tone,
“ Alas, for my deposits !”
A Ray or Peace.—A special correspon
dent of the New York Times writes from
London by the Canada, that the pending
negotiations are likely to result in ending
the war with Russia and restoring peace to
Europe. Tlie w riter states that he has come
to this conclusion within the last month.—
The allies, he intimates, are anxious for
peace, and their propositions are believed
to be such as can be accepted by Russia.—
Thc Czar, in his late manifesto, declares that
he is not desirous of further shedding of
blood, and will not reject any propositions
and conditions of peace, provided they be
compatible with the dignity of his empire
and the welfare of his subjects. The allies,
it is said, have provided for this compatibil
ity, and hence the opinion of the correspon
dent that peace is possible.
The leading English journals complain
bitterly of the war. The London Times
gives tbe total expenses for twelve months
at eighty millions of dollars. For the pres
ent year, the expenditure will lie still great
er, unless peace shall be declared. The
calculation is that at least one hundred
millions will be necessary, and with the
best view of the subject, at l»ast fifty mil- .

several diseases to which thev aTO ap.

They have also produced some singularly suc-
.-i-ssfai cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in the
Bach. Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken in iho spring of the year, to purify the blood

An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and

My Dear Sir:—I have just had the
pleasure of examininga very superior
specimen of Dentistry.
A full set of Upper Teeth inserted
on platina plate with continuous gum of silicious com
pound
♦ « i The set is of the manufacture of I‘r.L. L. Ledbetter
t reincdy to ernploj when in need of a | of this p i ace . For beauty of finish, strength & per-
j manancy and natural life like apppearanee, this pro-
j ess is certainly far superior to anything I have ever
) seen.
j At the distance of a few feet, this Job would defy
{ detection. So much is it like the teeth and gums ot
the Great Architect. Permit me to recommend to
j your consideration most favorably Dr Ledbetter’s
j claims as a Surgeon Dentist. He is a resident of this
city, permanently located, of high moral and religions
i character, and certainly a very superior workman
; If you or any of your friends have any thing to he
• done in his line, do me the favor to give the Dr., a call
J at his office over U. L. Wriigh’s old stand on White

This remedy has won for itself such notoriety !
from its euros of every variety of pulmonary disease, j
th it it is entirely unnecessary to recount the evi
dences of its virtues in any community.where It
has been employed. So wide is thc. field of its u u-
luliiess, and so numerous the cases of its ciues,
that almost every section of the country abounds
in persons publicly known, who have been restored
from nlnrruinq and oven desperate diseases of the
Innga by its use. Wlien once tried its supeii- rity
over every other medieine of its kind is too apper-
rr.i to esc;i]>e observation, aud where its virtues are
known, the public nr. longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distiessing and dangerous affec
tions of thc- pulmonary organs which are incident
to our climate. And not only in formidable at
tacks upon the lungs, but for thc milder varieties
of Corns. Couons, Hoarsknkss, &c. ; and fot
Chii-huen it is the pleasantest and safest medicine
that can be obtained.
As it has long bceu in constant use throughout
liiis section, we need not do more than assure the
people it quality is kept up to the best that it cvei
