COLD INTERPRETATION

WASHINGTON. Jan. lo.
 Since our last publication, the whole country has been buried under a Fall of Snow, the heaviest remembered here for more than twenty years past, accompanied by severe cold, and driven by violent wind, which has caused es- tcnsive drifts of snow, deep, fnot dangerously which the roads have been rendered tcmpoTai. ly impossible. There are two Southern and two Western mails yet due, and from the North we have had no mail beyond the ely of 'alti- more for three days. The snow, hcreaboutt fell about eighteen inches on level: some Of the drifts are six feet deep, and even deeper.

Laterestiag from .uerlco.-We have been ia yored with a proclamation, or rather public address, from Gen. Barragan, and an extract from a letter (noticed below,) which give the gratifying intelligence that general Congress has been proposed in that country for the express purpose of accommodating and settling difficult ties between the opposing parties. It is to be hoped that it may produce the good effects de- signed. Aiexicaas must by this time have learnt, that protracted civil war has but few benefits to bestow upon them; and if the military chiefs, by whom it has been inflicted upon the country, are sincerely disposed to terminate it, they have now an opportunity to show their patriotic in- tpnsiOnss

 Itis reported to-day, that Gen. Barragan has proposed a Congress of all the Generals, at which pedraza and Guerrero are to be invited to attend, as well IS other chiefs. The warin the south wih cease"
 The manifesto or proclamation of Barragan, which was subsequently received, is now before us. It is dated at San Pedro, Nov. I7th, 1880, and contains a long preface on tine causes by which the country has been brought to its pre- sent distressing and dangerous crisis.
 ssYhen civil waris constantly proceeding in proportion to the exertions made to repress it, without the effect being produced by the terri bie examples of numerous citizens who, within ten months have perished by means of the force employed for their extemnation, we ought ra- tonalv to conclude, that the common means for improvement do not conspre to reduce them to more alarming condition; for 1t is incontest- ble that all the increase obtained by the dscon- tented, results in the injury of the public author ity."
 The manifesto apoligizes for some of the measures of the government with q wish totran- quilize public feelings, and to induce partzans to regard each other without violent acrimony. Itcriminates neither side with severity; but in
 truly patriotic spirit, turns attention to the gen eFal distress and has lost that respect without which it is intellectual, the treasury is disarmed by extraordinary expenses, the army is ina state of Reorganization, the liberty of the press has become leentiousness. Such a state of things, the view of which has melted Gen. Barragan to make an appeal to the nation, he thinks will be regarded with similar feelings by the Ma tional Congress, the Supreme Government, the State Legislatures, Judges, the Clergy, militia " Chief, proprietors of the soil, merchants, and all citizens; all will see their reciprocal and iu-

 A change has taken place in the Represen- tatives of his Majesty, and new Legislature has been conyoked to transact all the business of the country. 1t is most sincerely to be hoped, that by their united exertions, an end may be put to all party differences, and that an adjust ment of all points of dispute may be obtained to the satisfaction of all parties.
