Lx THE PARIS.—W. J. Mire dah, 17 was chartisd with throwing snow balls in the en closure, St. Jaases's-a ark, to the annoyance and dan-er of the pedestrians. Yesterday afternoon there were upwards of 600 panels.% including men and boys, throwing allow balls at each other in St. James's-park. Several persons cumplainsd of the nuisance, and a lady had her eye severely cut with a mamba, while she was passing. Other persons received similar injuries, and the perk.keepen endeavoured to take some of the delinquents into custody, but were unable to do so in eons* queLos of the overpowering numbers. who immediately rescued their companions.

The nuisance increased to such an extent that it was deemed advisable to sane to Scotland yard for assistance. Mr. Commissioner Mayne insined.ately despatched a body of police constables, who were engage a all toe afternoon, until dusk, in prevent. inn the annoyance of throwing snow-balls. The prisoner made no defence, and Mr. Hall said it was a most langerous practice for persons to throw snow-balls, a d weld only be expected among eehooi-boys. He tined the prisoner Os., and, in default of payintnt, to be cammittd for 7 days. The prisoner was locked up. Two other boys were charged with a similar (Het:oe.

THE WEATHER AND THE PARKS.- N UMEROUS ACCIDEN IS. On Saturday the ornamental water in St. James's and It.imat'aparka was cuund with ice, and during the day, hundreds of meu and lads ventured on it, notwith- Moiling they were told it was extremely dangerous. The lloyal Humane Society had is in attendance, provided with vs necessary apparatus to mate penons who might become immersed, and daring the day sevenl persons ve , o broke through were rxtricatcd and conveyed to the society's tent, where fifty received tvery attention; one or two bad narrow escapes, but fortunately there was tio fatal accident. The ice, though covering tin Serpentine, Ilyde.park, and the long pond and round water, Kensington-geruens, was o tragi e that few had the temerity to venture on it. Cautiuns„were istned by the Royal Humane Society—" That in the event of accident on the me, the puolie an requested not to crowd round the spot, nor to interfere with the ice men on duty.—Signed, J. Charlicr, secretary." A number of icemen, under the direction of Mr. Superintendent Wil liams, were in attendance, bat. fortunately, their services were not required. At l'eckliam fields, the Hackney marches, and surrey-canal, the ice was from 4 to 5 inches in thickness, sad all plum were thtungtd with skaters and sliders. The frost continued nearly the:whole of yesterday (Sunday), and at tie o'clock in the . venom the thermometer at the It. Humane Sod ty'sre-eiving-boune stood at 30 degree.. Prom soon thl nearly tour o'clock, however, the sun shone most brilliantly, when the MereUM rose at high se 37 in Hyde. park, which caused the edges of the ice in the various pare, to thaw rapidly, rendering it emcee. ingly dangerous. Tee R...yal Humane Society, thcrlcre, anopted every pre caution that wae_poesible to prevent accidents. Se. James's YAWL. —About 2,000 skaters and sliders ventured upon the ice in the incloeure of this park, whiles the hanks wen Morally crowded with persons witnessing the sport The ice was only an inch in thickness, erd many parts were broken to deter people from going 00, out with out sumose. In the early part of the day tress ponces were lammed, but were immediately rescued by the Humane ftemety's imam. About 3 in the afternoon DI. Boyer, the cook of the Reform Club, had a narrow escape of losing his life. He was leading a young tri. ad who had expressed a wi-b to walk on the ice, when he fell through into 16 feet ot water opposite the Horse Guards. Icemen Mentz got him out Se on as poreitie, and conveyed him to the tent, where he was met by the sureeeti to the society, who immediately placed him in a hot bath, and administered • glass of whisky, which be considers one of the beet sti mulants on such oceasions. After the lapse of a few heart hi.

The man tried to pull his wife out, and save him self, but the more he tried the greater danger bock were placed in by the breaking of the ice. The icemen suceeeded rescuil g bath parties, but they were so muca exhausted that it was feared both were dead, they having been immediin the water upwards of four minutes.

The prediction of a Leamington gentleman, that, in consequence of the moon being in perigee the tides would rise to disastrous heights on Saturday and Sunday, has not been fulfilled. Nothing hes occurred, so far as can be judged from such &deices u have already reached us, except what would certainly have happened during any other spring tide, with a strong wind blowing on the laud. Portions of the east coast have indeed been flooded, as was intimated in Saturday's paper, in consequence of a strong north wind blowing up the waters of a spring tide upogthe land. The following let'er has been addressed by the Astro nomer Royal to Messrs. Scott sod Hopktos, of the Times' office, Plymouth, on the subject of the Leamington letter tiatrzaitted to him by these gentlemen : "Royal Observatory, Greenwich, Dee. 27, 1849. " Gentlemen,—ln reply to your letter of yesterday, I have to state that I had not previously seen the letter of which you enclosed a copy, athough I hid heard that a Tumour, on the probability of a large tide on the 29th or 30. h Last., was now cement. "Then is no fundation whatever for such a rumour. "The ciicurnstance% on which the magnitude of the tide depends are mainly there three : " The tide is high when the moon is full; it is high when the moon is in perigee, and it is high when the moon Pi in the equator. [I omit all mention of the Sou's distance, be cause the effect of its variation is practically quite insigni ficant.] " The large* tides usually occur on the day next following the states of the moon which I have mentioned "Two of these circumstances occur on the 29th (namely, the moon w:Il be full and in perigee). But the moon instead of being in the equadur, will be at her greatest mirth declination ; end this einuens once will redoes the tide cm ielerably. " The three ice/taloa circumstances which I have men tiooed have repeatedly been combined in late years, all tending to increase the tide ; and yet no mischief has been dose. "I am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, "G. B. AIRY." Wise precautions were taken in various par.s of the coast, b .th of Great Britain and Ireland, but except at Yarmouth and its neighbourhood nothing had happened to excite ap prehension, when our provincial parcels arrived last evening THE THAMES. The tide on Saturday &ad yesterday only exceeded the ordinary height of spring flows by a few inches, and although Betierera-.Mies were, an usual at such times, flooded, yet we have heard of no serious inconverience having been suf fered in other parts ot the river. The preperatioes to guard against the flood extended, however, slung both banks of the Thames, even as high up as Riebmsnd. So a. m has been the belief of wherfingers, flour factors, corn merchants, maltsten, milers, distillers, and brewers, in the predicted inundation, that every thing in the shape of grain and any ether property that could be i. jured by water, was removed to the high. r stories of the buildings; and men have been engaged for some days in erecting barricades and brigkieg with cement, or planking up, with clay introduced be tween all doorways or other modes of inlet from the river, ell which must have entailed an enormous expense on th owners of the different property. Amtinget the many we may mention who have adopted such precautions as. Smith's distillery, Tlingit s-beak ; Hearn. Francis's cement works, Niue-elms; Meters. Breuley, , insisters, Battersea, and Mr. Dives Miller of the same place; the silk works and rice works also at Battersea; Mr. Watney's distillery; Messrs. La gton's, molesters, and Mrs-n. Watney and Wells, miller., Wandsworth t Messrs. liempeon and Tupham's brewing end =alehouses at Iffortlak. ; th Fulham m 'tisanes and the brewery at Richmond; at many of the tseautdul vides oh the banks of the Thames pree.utioeary measures. such as removing the furniture and other valuable _property from the lower a Minute, have been adopted. Ihe river the whole of yes p terdsy was h in a very turbid state, and between Pointy and Richmond was a continuous field of detached messes of ice and tr• gen snow, sad navigation between those places wee much impede.., if not altogether stopped. In the lower parts ef the river, at the Docks, the tide did not flow beyond its usual limits. In the minting of Saturday high water was at 48 minutes eta terrier, sn I the 'selectee height which it attained at the St. Katherine's Dock+ wee 28 ft. B'a. In the afternoon high water at the same pl tee was at 40 minuet s atter one, end the depth of water 27 ft. 7 in. It i , . a well known fact that the evening tides are always greater than those in the day time. Bu: although no high tides have taken awn within the hot two days, when they wen fully exp. cted, a certain tidal phenomenon took place on Friday ;—the tide which ahead I have flowed at titty minutes to twelve reached its ordi nary height two hours bettore that time. It teen ebbed for about a font and a hat., and S treed again for a few inches, again ebbed, and afterwards attained its full height at the usual time. This phenomenon was so remarkable that many people were in some consternation as to what was going to happen, several in the nt ighbourbood of the river clearing the lower parts of their houses in ex pectation of the water reaching them. However the tide reached no greater height than 26 feet 6 inches, and there fore all precautions were unnecessary. This phenomenon of the ebbing end flowing of the tides has fee quently been °b eery. d in firths or arms of the sea, where of con se in high winds the pressure ot the water is greater than in narrow rivers; but in the themes it is a matter of unusual occur recce. For instance, in the Firth or Forth in Scotland the tide ha. b. en known to dectease for nearly th ree feet, Inc sgain assume its former height. PORTSMOUTH. Our own correspondent, writing yesterday (Sunday), says there is nothing unusual to report reearding the anticipated high tides. The high water-mark has not been exceeded at this port 041.1. The hichest tide these springs was on Thursday last. DOVER. A cone- pond-nt of the Observer, wrilog from Dover yes terday, states that the tide that mornine had ft need to • great height, overflown g the Marine Parade, and inun dating the houses fronting the harbour. YARMOUTH. In addition to what wr stated in Saturday's Daily News, we add the following from the Norfolk Chron , ek :—On Fri day morning, in consequence of the high winds fr-an the north and north north-west, and spring tides, the waters covered the marshes and the railway between Yarmouth and Reedham, and also the whole of the manhes be tween Medford and Somerleyton. A greet part of the vane), of the Waveney and Yare is under water. The S and 9, a.m., train front Norwich to Yarmouth pro ceeded a short distance past Reedham ; but, in consequence of the water covering the line, had to r e turn. Tufa 10.30. Les , express train to London was detained tall 12 o'clock, in couseqne ace of the he-tty tad of now along the line as far as Wymondbana. At that hour the 10.30 and 12 trains were Combined, soil proceeded with two engines on the journey, great efforts having been made to clear the line. The train was stopped at the Trowse bridge, the heavy fail of snow having covered the Lee. After some delay the line was cleared, and the teals pro ceeded onwards. The train that stopped and returned bock to Resales, after remairing there some time, returned to Norwich ; all the p 1 rs, no doubt, very glad of a sate deliverance. The train from Lowestoft proceeded as far as Blundestone, when it was obliged to return, on account of the water covering the line. While the engine was bs.king the train over a Wine, • very serious accident occurred. The bridge having been loomed, swayed from the engine, which left the rails ; the driver was thrown off, and it is feared his thigh bthe was broken. The train was, however, backed safely to Lowestoft. The traffic is entirely sapped between this city and Yarmouth and Lowestott. As we are going to press, the snow continues falling heavily. LYNN. There bee been a rising of the tide since Wednesday above the ordinary spring tide.. The inhabitants were &leveed at the increase of water, and, believing the predicted high tide would prove too true, commenced to barricade the lower path of their houses, and eo avoid the rush of water. The con tinuance of the northwesterly wind added to teen (vie, and the genemi opinion of the most nautical men in the well was that an inundation would take place. At Wiebech the tide rose six feet beyond its ordinary height, as also at Bridington. SUNDERLAND. During Thursday sad Friday, the tides at Shields aeod Sunderland rose very high, and created quite a panic amongst the inhabitants who recopy the wharh and build hags near the water. The sea rolled in tremendous:y strong • storm raged the whole time, and up to six o'clock, Fridey, the wild continued to blow almost • Mennen. from N. and N.N.E., with heavy falls of snow. Amidst its fury a steamer was nearly lost on the Herd Sands. roved to be the Brilliant from Hall for Leith, and was he r nning into the Tyre to shelter from the storm, when she was caught by a en and carried on to the sands. The life-boat was launched and part of the steam. r's cries fork to the rigging. How ever, she was weed off by the seas that followed, and by ensiderable exertion she reached the harbour. If she had struck on the bar the crew must inevitably have been swept from her dick and perianed in the tempestuous sea. The Lrndnn mail, which was Ole here, tyce, has arrived when the up mail started, five hours -afterwards. The line is said to be blocked up with snow. DUBL!N. Our Dublin correspondent states that numbers of pecide went on the quays on Saturday,at the hour of high water, to observe the predicted inundailon, and mgt were the were disappointed to find that the tide was little more th in usual high one. LEITH—SHIELDS. Northward, as far as Leith, the tide roe, 0 8 Thuttd•Y and Friday two feet above the alumna& calculated height. This, together with a gale of wind from the N.Y. W -e finYe rise to much anxiety along the beast. Leith ne'w doesfs :weaned to be in cow danger, for although the ,contractor k s j caused an embankment to be constructed, three feet hi g h, on the top of the ender dock wall, the 'pray of the ' 4l wee w ehins over it.

In the latter plac e, particu larly, considerable numbers of iadividnals, residing within the probable reach of the tide. have removed their turaitare from their domiciles, and are, themselves, ready to decamp at the first appearance of danger. The safety of the loose goods usually expotea at the Broomielaw quays, appears also to have engaged the attention of shippers here, as we observed, yesterday, labourers occupied in removing floatable articles away to a more secure position under MM.

The railway share-market has not improved this week, owing pethspa to more than the usual amount of bond fide selling having been done, whilst few appear disposed to speculate for a rise. Until this morning, booth Westerns, and South Eastern', were if anything a shade better than last Saturday; but during the day, these declined Os. each, reducing them to a level with the closing price ot this day' week. The decline which has taken place is most noticeable in Caledonia . , Midland, and London and North Westeru shares. 'the seeress amount of traffic on the various lines of railway exhibits this week a further decrease. From the officisl returns it appears that the amount , of traffic for the last week on 5,218 miles of railway was 187,5784, thus accounted tor: 88,5271. for the oonveyance of pas•engers only, 62,893/. for the car riage i.f goods, and a remainder of 36,1581. for pas sengers and goenis together, not respectively eppor %lone(' ; being an increase of 6,0301. over the corresponding week of last year, when the mileage was 4,476. fhe average earnings per mile were 304, whilst last year they were 401.
