The Ohio Frozen Over.

Intense as the cold was in this neighborhood.
few days ago, its severity was parallel at tho
same time in other localities.
At Cincinnatti the Ohio was frozen over the
Ice being thicker than 1t has been known to be
for years. We learn from one of the papers of
that city, that drays, wagons and cattle crossed
daily, the novelty of the scene attracting large
numbers of spectators, to view it. On Sunday
a week it is estimated that twenty thousand
people crossed upon the ice. In the midst of
the cold enjoyment a scene occurred which i,
alluded to as follows by the Commercial:
cat time when vast coneourse had assem-
bled upon the ice, gorge which had for some
time swelled the water above it, gave way, and
the frost bound bridge sunk to the surface of the
water with a tremendous crash. Terror was
depicted ON every coutenance. The arms of
wives were instinctively thrown around their
husbands, and the arms of modest maidens on
this momentuous OCCASION, were thrown around
the stalwart forms of their gallants perhaps for
the first time. Some of the gentlemen recipro-
Gated the embrace, while others as much fright
ened as their fair companions, sought safety in
fight. The ladies not wishing thus to be deser-
ted in the time ofneed, caught hold of the skirts
of their gallant's coats, as they fed for life and
more than one ''dem fcin" fellow was seen
streaking his way up Walnut street, minus q
cloak or the tail of his coat Soon, however. it
was found that the danger was only imaginary
numerous tests were passed upon the unlucky
who deserted their "heart's idols" in the mo-
ment of danger, and the unfortunate ladies ad-
monished to choose husbands and gallants that
would stand by them in storm as well as sun
! shine

First Appearance Of Lola NEenteZ
On tEae American siege.

The New York Courier and Enquirer, in no
ticing the first appearance of the renowned Lola
Montez, at the Broadway Theatre, on Monday
night, says:
g Though the audience was large, 1t was not
at all brilliant owing to the almost entire absence
of ladies; the appearance of the house being
rather that presented at political mee.ing, than
theatrical entertainment She was received
with yociferous applause upon her first appear
anec, but succeeded in arousins no marks of
very warm admiration during the performance
As dancer she has not much merit, and we be-
ieve has never achieved much reputation. Her
person is slight almost to Ineagerness; her eyes
and hair very fine, and the expression of her
face very. seductive
Webb is, no doubt, induced to. write thus
slightingly of LolG, OF account of her hostility
to Austria and friendship for porfcct liberty,
The Herald of last evening, thus iiseourses on
the same subject:
sin few minutes she made her appearance
on the staircase, representing winding path
down a mountain, when she was greeted with
tremendous applause. She remained on the
spot for some time, courtesying low to the audi
ence, who continued to appIand her for several
minutes. She then descended gracefully, and
on reaching the stage was received with another
burst of applause, which she again acknowledged
with lady-like bow. She was neatly dressed
as a Tyrolean she looked very thin and grhsh
far younger than she is; in fact, not more
than sixteen years. She has an uncommon face ;
it is of aristocratic mould, and mein, and
iS 70 tba
But she is not so very beautiful after all Her
eye is fine blue which is set off by beautifully
arched brows; but her mouth is by no means
pretty. Her chin and neck, however are fine.
Her form is fragile and slender, and her move
ments and attitudes very graceful. There is
a natural ease in her step which is charming.
Neither her legs nor feet have anything remarka-
BILE about them. Her leg is rather common, and
her foot certainly neither andalusian diminu-
tive. The colored engraYings in the shop win
dows not like her. She is not so ca bon point
/ or so fieshy as they represent her.
g The whole performance lasted exactly 40
minutes, and just concluded at o'clock. When
the curtain fell, she was called for with great
yehemence, and coming in front, was re-
ceivcd with great cheering. She said in a
weak voice, and rather foreign accent, pronoun-
cling the article the as de Ladies and gen.
tlemen-I thank you from the bottom of my
heart for the very kind reception you have given
me, poor stranger, in yoar noble land She
{ then withdrew
- Her dances were short and simple and she
performed nothing that could be called feat
None of these performances were her pecu-
liar Spanish dances, in which she excels.-
AS ddnseuse, she is decidedly inferior to Cerito
Madame Augusta, and others, but there is a
nameless grace of nature about her person and
movements, which, with her history, gives he1
an attraction that better artist could not com
mand, but which, however, is not destined to be
very lasting

BSzy@ One Of the leading Government papers
Of Prussia contains long article on the growth
Of the United States, and the danger which this
gigantic republic threatens TO the monarchical
countries of Europe. According to the writer,
we have already millions in reserve, and large
feot ready TO pounce down upon Europe at the
first favorable moment. The article warns the
nations of the danger, and adyises-th to watch
carefully the conduct of our Consuls and Am
bassadors, aad if necessary to send. them out of
them country. 1t suggests that the Europeans
should keep on the defensive A Bremen paper
replies TO this in capital style. The Editor saws
that the chief danger to Europe is TO be looked
for from the side of California. The United
States think first of annexing all the islands of
the ocean, then China, and after stopping in ST.
IBERIA to release the prisoners, to overthrow
Russia and so on through. Europe. The article
IN the Prussian paper was too absurd to be an
swered in any other-way than in joke, and the
Bremen writer did it up it deserved.

A snsaEl Great spy Glass.

We see It stated in some foreign papers, that
a spy glass has beea exhibited in London of no
greater diameter than walnut, yet so power
full that the lineaments Of persons face can be
read by it the distance of a mile and n half
1t weighs only one and a half ounces. aad can
easily be carried in the pocket of a gentieman's $
vest. We hope some of our opticians will on 70
work and construct like telescopes, SO that We
may have the pleasure of carrying such a handy
Instrument continually about onr person.
