Being subscriber TO your paper, l am induced to

ticed and perhaps you will give il insertion as
example worthy of being initiated by others.
On Thanksgiving day, during the cold and storm,
when scarcely person was walking in the street,
saw Mr.. d. gentleman residing in the upper part
OF Broadway, near Washington Place, leave his
paror window and rush suddenly out of his honse
into the street and dash through the mud and rain
without overcoat or cloak, as though he had run
mad. Presently saw him return and re enter his
house with four little half frozen, bare-legged chill
dren, dripping wet, at his heels. fanciedI saw
them before his hosptabe hearth, drying their tat
tered coverings warming their frozen feet and
drinking warm coffee. Some time ailer they came
they had entered-their feet were no longer bare,
but had shoes and stockings on, and their clothes
were dry and their faces smiling. They sheltered
themselves near by for few moments to examine
the contents of their now we'll lined baskets,-the
youngest. a little boy not over four years of age,
drew forth flannel shirt; the other what appeared
to be also some warm garment, the other pulled up
her frock to examine her ankles and feet, which
were now well covered-:he Oldest a girl not over
sixsyears DID, delighted to see the change, began to
dance, and the others all joined in tripping the light
fantastic toe on the wet and slippery pavements,
with hearts lighter and happier than found perhaps
in many gay ball room They then re-passed the
house one by one, taking long lock at 1t as though
they never would forgetit.
Mr.. D. is perhaps not aware that even the eye of
a neighbor was witness to this scene, nor did he
think, perhaps, at the moment that the eye of Him,
the giver of all good, was also witness, who will
return than hundred fold for this kind act of
CHARITY.

assignment by the " central board" OF the RealsEs-

the " force of authority" is against him. He is
pretty stlerhereto and thinks unnecessary op.

requesting by letter 10 the attorniesfor the stock
holders opposed TO the assignment, rehearing of
the cause by the Supreme Court, upon their decl-
sion in favor OF mandamus issuing to the Circuit
Judge compelling injunction. think he has
been unnecessarily assailed, and when il shall be
known that the leading Judge OF that Court Is using
extraordinary means to SUSTAIN himself and weak

and the Governor will be held blameess. He Is a
man ofconsiderable cleverness, and deserves much,
because OF his being ahead of his party In Lberaty
upon political matters.
The Legislature have cut out an amount of work.
They are death against the banks. There are some
forty counts IN the indictment against the Real Es

the assignment. The election for United States Sc
nator will come off on Monday next. A. H. Sewer
will be elected without any material opposition.
This election has been deferred by the friends of
the honorable Senator, that his enemies might sa-
tisy themselves with regard to his conduct in the
disposal of some of the State bonds and the part of
the Smithsonian legacy fund purchased as a basis
for the banks capital This opposition will but give

Description of Bridgport-Ne,o Route to Albany by
Railroad Gaiety and Fashion.
Mr. BENNETT
AS our youthful city has lately been, it were,
dragged into notice from its retiracy in an obscure
corner of the Blue Law States it is but right that
you should give to your readers, and they are le-
gion, some definite idea of the winter route from
your city to Albany.
Bridgeport is situated on tide harbor formed by
the junction of the Poquonnoc river with the Sound,
and distant 60 miles from New York, and lao from
Albany The main part of the city is built upon
flat or level piece OF ground, but immediately back
oft rises Golden Hill, from the top Of which very
extensive panoramic view may be obtained. 1t con-
tains about 5000 inhabitants, increasing fast as
possible, and SIX hne meeting houses. The society
decidedly good, and the fame of the beauty of
ladies' has already extended to your paper. In fact,
some OF our bellies create quite sensation In Co.
tham whittier most of them migrate in the winter
You will recollect Miss B, the belle of Bridge
port, of Ii or. ball memoy.
The fine steamboats, Croton, Capt. Peck, and
Nimrod, Capt. Brooks, {" suaviter in modo, forter
in req leave New York alternately at A. M, and
reach here from eleven to half past, when the pas
sengers take the at the landing, and stopping at
North Canaan for comfortable meal, arrive at the
capital OF the Excelsior State about 81 O'Clock, p.
M. Fare through Sc. Returning, passengers leave
Albany at o'clock, P. NJ, get to Bridgeport about
midnight and take boat al the next morning
sleeping at one Of the two capital hotels, viz the
Sterling, Barnum, and Farchd, and Humans
City, which last sthe later established.
The usual quiet of our town, broken only by the
shrll whistles of the locomotives, was suddenly
invaded few evenings since by the arrival of Mr..
Person and his two sweet singing birds, Mrs.
Strong and her sister, attended by suite of nstru-
mental performers, coming by invitation to give
concert in connectio with the choir of one of the
socities here-the leader Of which, though an anna
teur, is thought quite equal to Mr.. Downe on the
flute. The prime mover, however, was Captain
Brooks, of the Nimrod, who is perfect devo.ee of
the "peasing art" and who gave us fine bass So
10, much TO his credit All the fashionabes were
there, and universal satisfaction has been expressed
on ali sides. The aria of Sound the Trumpet in
Jerusalem, as given by Mrs. Strong, was perfectly
sublime. Some at the lady amateurs fell but little
short of Mrs. s. in power and expression.

SPLENDID ANNuAI.-A very beautiful volume, en-
titled Thulia Tale of the Antarcc"-has Just
been published by Colman, Broadway. This is a
poem by DR.. Palmer, of the medical officers at
tached TO the Exploring Expedition, and is founded
on the perlous adventures through which the Flying
Fish schooner passed in the regions of the frozen
North. This little vessel which had originally been
a New York pilot boat, had been introduced
into the squadron without any addition to the
strength of her frame ; so that her security among
the ice, was to depend entirely on her good quail
ties as a sea-boat. In the month OF March she
passed between two icebergs upwards of eight hun
dredfeei height land soen afterwards the vessel be-
came the centre of little area, walled by the pi-
ling seas" From this perous scene of unsurpassed
grandeur, the schooner with difficulty escaped. The
sufferiugs of the adventurous crew were extreme
and DR.. Palmer has succeeded in conveying with
most thrilling effect the sensations excited by these
romantic adventures. The mechanical execution
OF the volume is superb The illustrations are twelve
IN number, from designs by Mr. Agate, the talented
artist who accompanied the expedition, and il is
not saying too much to represent them as among
the most spirited and beautiful ever produced in
New York

SINGULAR REVOLUTION IN THEATRIcALs.-Th
Park Theatre is, it seems to be converted into a
Circus; and the scene of the triumphs of Maibran,
Celeste, and Elssler, is destined to witness the
displays of equestrian performers. This is only
another evidence of the remarkable revolution
which has of late taken place in theatrical affairs.
Cheap theatres, like the Chatham and Olympic, are
the only places of amusement which can maintain
existence nowadays. The fortunes of the upper
and re-lned classes of society have suffered such
prostraon in the great commercial disasters of the
last few years, that they longer afford to sup
port the opera and legitimate drama People now
resort to the cheap theatres, where the vaudeville
and farce take the place Of the tragedy, opera, and
ballet Every where the large expensive theatres
are going to perditon, whilst their less pretending
and successful rivals are enjoying the sunshine of
prosperity
The new movement at the Park, however, may
be followed in the spring by the production of Eng
lish and Italian operas, alternative nights There
canbe no d. ubtl al operas, efficiently got up would
meet with amrle support in this city, for a short
season, every year.
