- Tie great magician of the weather in
accordance with the " prayers of mtcted
thousands, baa . brought the fgreat circle"
of snow to a close, and inaugurated a sea
son, of rain ami slush. "''.The latter is to
continue till the winds of March dry tip
the superabundant favors of Aquarius. The
. two great articles of demand this winter
-hare been furs and rubbers. The costume
of the Rusa has given "an additional pen
eilin? of' the picturesque to our unwanted
Arctic scenery. The rubbers are peculiar
ly American, (if Goodyear be reliable) but
their rainstorm and-slush associations de
f eidedlj drown out all ideas cf the artistic
nnd graceful. The post provoking instance
of this is in the case of ladies' ancle-envel
. o'pcs.0 Our India-rubber iderrtist's hare in
Tented an article ! of' Jong-Iegged. boot3,
whose glistening cylinders shroud the white
statuary which once twinkled their classi
cal cottonoter the wet pave of Broadway,
nnd "shut out heaven from our view." The
.h'ghest utility and the most elevated love-

In this iy winter, as if to pile a "Pelion
'upon Odsa' of ice, we have had icy plays
and Arctic arl ventures snrpad before us to
. - r -
"freeze the genial current of our soul3." -
Ine uSta of laf'has been served up to the
half frozen habitues of one of our theatres,
and Dr. Kane has added u dish of adven
turous creum to the already congealed pub
lic. These entertainments , should have
-been packed away in straw,! until the eul
try hours of the next July, if indeed, they
shall, perad venture, be sultry.
But the realities of New York Harbor,
during the past fortnight, have out-Boreal-Ised,
the efforts of the dramatist or the dan
gers of the adventurer. We have had the
frozen pack, nd the ice-floe, the resistless
drift that tore the '-best bower" from its
bed ; we have had vessels crushed and their
'Lardy crews lost, steamboats sunk in the
perilous endeavour -to discover the passage
to Staten Island, ice sleds ami skaters skim
ming over a sea of ice, and fair ladies and
brave men cast away, upon ice-bergs, and
only, at last, most unromaniically rescued,
Bot for love, but money, at the rate of two
shillings a piece. We have wanted only
the rein deers and Laplanders to complete
the illusion. " Fortune favoring, the rain
dears will be out next week, a shopping
through the wet. (By the way, it is a sin
gular fact, which seems to have escaped
the notice of E. ML that the "dears" al
ways prefer a slushy day for shopping. It
is feared by dry goods men that the intro
duction of the above mentioned bootlegs
will decrease this laudable practice. " UA
bos les hottest1 we say.) As for Lapland,
that will be realized by the husbands upon
their return at the tea-time-greeting and the
footing op of the day's foraging for furs
ami shawl. I
To return to boots, gentlemen of the top
strata ere beginning to sport the tasseled
tap boots of the past half-century. The old
family servants of Virginia cannot esteem
any one augeti'Ieman" unless he wears the
ufar top boots" of their old masaa." Well,
fair-tops and tassel-tops will soon reproduce
the costume of the old regime. But will they
reproduce the men. 1 Will they bring back
to us the truth, the honor, and the lofty
principle of the early Republic? We fear
these characteristics would sit as loosely
upon some of our' public men, as 1 far-top-boots''
upon the shrunken shanks of one of
our modern Shanghaies ! ""
. Masked balls have been quite fashiona
nble during the winter. They are, how
ever, mostly conSned to our brethren of
Teutonic birth. "Teutonic," as our aspi
ring politicians are politic enough to call
our German "fellow-citizens.' It's all right.
"The Teuton I- The Celt 1" ' U sounds very
well ! ;. Well, one of the best characters we
uv at a late ball, Was a lively .Teuton,
.with a large beer cask oo him, his bead
and arms run through convenient holes, j
and the cask labelled "Lager Bier I" ; How

ill-natured things are said about hoops just

She blazed with diamonds, and was glori

the Emperor, at the end of .that time, to be
responded to by a salute of, one hundred

A DUELIST DISGRUNTLED.
' A very laughable circumstance is said
to have occurred in Albany, during a ses
sion of the Legislature nt the Capitol several-years
aero of course before the pro
hibition of dueling by'statute in this State.
It was an exciting . political time, and
owing lo.sorae 'words spoken in debate
rby a healed member, during the 'heated
term,' touching somewhat upon the private
character of a brother member, a challenge
was forthwith despatched o the offending
member by H friend,' as sych a messenger
is called in the language of the code of
honor..-';-.'''J: '.'V 'v ---:.Ct ; '
The challenge was at once accepted.
Pleased with this promptness, the second
said : ' "v-;x'- ."V.' --':-';" ;; :'"' '-"':
'When can we expect your friend V
'Don't -vant any friend.' said the chal
lenged party. '-'I waive all such advanta
ges. : He can have a dozen if he wishes.'
; This is magnanimous, but it is not " ac
cording to the 'code.' -Well Sir if I am
to confer with you directly what wea

'Broad swords.' " s

morrow in the 4iitle village of P : , and
at twelve o'clock precisely we will light on
the 'Sugar-loaf Hill; ' standing back to
back, marching ten paces, then ; turning
and firing. Will that arrangement be sat
isfactory?'. . ' '
'It will. ; We shall b? there.'
1 And the' parties separated. Now 'Sugar-loaf
Hiilv',at the place aforesaid,' was
exactly what its, name imports a sharp
conical pillar of ground, remarkable all
over the immediate country round for its pe
culiar formation. ; : i : " .. .
The time arrived, and 'the parties' ap
peared on the ground: but the stale of the
case 'leaked out' very quick.
Sir I said the second, as he arrivfd with
his almost breathless 'principal' at the apex
of the bugar-loaf, and surveyed the ground
Sir! this is another subterfuge ! What
kind of a place is this for a duel with pis
tols, back to back, and a forward march
often paces? Why.Sir, both parties would
be out of sight at eight paces, let alone ten ;
and in turning to fire, you must fire into the
side-hill !'
'So much the better for both of us ?' an
swered the 'party of the second part;' 'we
are on terms oJ perfect equality, then, which
is not always the case in modern duels.'
Out spake the challenging 'principal'
then, in words too plain to be misunder-
8 toad :
Sir-r !' he said to the second 'principal'
at the same time looking daggers at him :
'Sia-R ! You are a coward V -,.
'Well O'pasin' lam ! You kneto I was.
or you would not have challenged me I
'Ihey do say' that the two 'parlies' that
went down the steeD sides .of Sncrar-lnnf
Hill, on that memorable occasion, were as
difficult of reconciliation as when they as
cended its sides; and, moreover, that they
were as dinerent in temper as possible.
One party was laughing, and the other
'breathing out threatening and slaughter;'
but nothing came of it, after all. This was
the last of Mar duel.
And thoughtfully regarded, it seems to
us that there is something of a Ies:on in it,
'indifferently well' as we have ret the ac
tual occurrence before our readers,

; FORREST AND THE COLORED ACTOR.
A few days since, Forrest was phtying an
engagement, io Baltimore. One morning,
while at breakfast, the colored gentleman
who waited upon him, thus addressed him:
, "Maeea Forrest. I teed you pl;iy Wirgin
ius de odder night I golly, you played him
right up to de handle. I link dat play jest
a good as hamlet. Was it writ byt defame
man ?"
"Oh, no." said the tragedian, amused nt
the communicative spirit of his sable friend.
'Hamlet was written by Shakespeare, and
Virjriniua by Knowles.' -
"Wtll."attl the waiter, f'dey's bofc migh
ty smart fellows. I'se an actor myelf.:'
"You t" said the astonished tragedian
'why, where do you play ?" -
' ' Down in the serubly rooms," was the re
ply. "Wese got a theatre, stugn and cere
nery, and dreesee. and ebcry ting all r ght.
We l;ty dere bealiful."
"What have you ever played ?"
"Why I'se played Hamlet, and Polonius.
and de Grabe Digger, all in de same piece."
'How do you manage to rehearoe ?"
Why we waits till de work is done, den
we all goes down to the kitchen and rehear
tea." ; ' -. 7: -.. ; '. ...
-But,what do you do for ladies 7", said Mr.
Forrest. . . :. :
t'Ah. dar ve stick I We can't get no la
dies." - " ' .
"Why ; wont the colored ladies play 7"
"Oh. no," said the colored actor, decol
ored ladies link it too degrading."
The great tragedian asked no more ques
tion . -
A TRIAL FOR MURDER. '
A Trial for Murder at Huittsville (Ala.)
last month produced intense excitement in
all that region., Abner Tile and John Gor
don were accused of having murdered, 'some
years ago, several men who disappeared
mysterious!? and have never - since been
heard of. The principal witness was a wid
ow woman of excellent character, and her
teeiimony was so explicit and minute, and
fitted so perfectly to the known circumstan
ces, that apprehensions began to be enter
tained that the accused were actually guilty,
althoug their general character forbade any
such opposition. The cace was nearly con
cluded when suspicions - were excited that
the woman was not exactly in her rijrht mind,
and subsequent development showed that
she was thoroughly inpane. but with a man
ner so calm and collected as nearly to ex
elude all suspicion of her actual condition,
The men accused by here were ofconrse ac
quitted and thiuk thy bad a very narrow
escape. ?;" "
Jack Bannister, praising the hospitality of
the Irish, after one of hi! trips to Ireland,
was asked if he had been in Corlt. '-No," re
plied the wit,fcbat I saw a great many draw
