Letter from Mr.. Powers.


The following is an extract from letter recently
received in this city from Mr.. Powers, and bearing
date the 2Sth Of February. The letter is interest
ing, as coming from one who has personally OBJ
served what he writes about:
We are in asnguar position here just now. The Grand
Duke has suddenly left his dominions-a strong probability

The WEATHER.-Some poet, somewhere sings
OF Winter lingering in the lap of Spring." which
we believe to be very improper liberty for the
cold-tempered, hard.featured, grey headed old fel
low to take with damsel so young, warm, fair
and blooming; and however fashionable or poeti-
cal the act may be, we look upon it as one which
calls for the greatest censure of our public author
ties, and we commend the matter to our friend and
fellow-citizen Recorder Baldwin, who both by
official station and acknowledged virtue, is the
moral censor of the upper part of the city Old
Winter should be at once taken in charge of his
namesake the High Constable, and, if upon look
ing over the statute book the Recorder can find no
penalty attached to his lingering habits, that
would justify his committal foItriaI before his honor
Judge McHenry, he ought to treat Inn as others
under similar circumstances are treated, and send
him to the work for nine months at least
We call the Recorders attention particularly to
this subject for the reason that Old Winter has
been cutting up more than ordinary shines lately.
ne rs not content to Finger in the lap of Spring.
Tor . reasonable time, and then be off as hereto
fore; but after having hidden the young lady
formal farewell, seized his hat and cicle and pre-
tended to depart for good and all, the damsel has
no sooner begun making love in good earnest to
ner cousin Summer, than the old fellow returns,
lnfeHupts their most amorous kisses by obtruding
MS cold and death-lke nose between their lips.
and seizing Spring in his arms covers her over
with clouds of dust and chls her young blood with
the bitter blasts of the North A greater outrage
could not be committed, and if the Recorder does
not attend TO itor if Capt. Winter shows the Gull
prlt any mercy on account of his name-we will
make the town too cold to hold them, or some
place IN It as hot as any abode they may have in
prospect. Look to it gentlemen in time
=. S.-We do not believe the rumor that a man
was frozen to death yesterday, in Chartres street:
nor yet can we credit the improbable tale which is
IN circulation, that of our most respectable cit
zens was seen at church in the morning without
his greatcoat.
