NEW YEARS. DAY.

The social enjoyments of New Years Day were
reserved for yesterday the Cd and were ndulged in
nationally and appropriately, to an extent greater
than we have ever before witnessed in our city.
More of the residences of private citizens in addi
ton to those of official persons were open for the
hospitable reception of friends and neghbors than
have before been known, and the circulation of vi
siters among them was proportionably general and
hearty. Every where the greetings and good wishes
of the season undergoing cordial reciprocaton
during the day, all cheered and enlivened by the
brliaucy of cloudless sky. The Presidents man
sion was thronged to overhowing during the hours
ofreeeption by the high and the humble, official and
unofficial; the .splendor Of the Diplomatic Corps,
and the rich uniforms of military and naval men,
and the numerous attendance of ladies, all giving
brillancy and animation to the scene. The com
pliments of the season were offered to the Chief
Magistrate with evident cordiality by every lip,
and every one received in return an earnest response
and a warm shake of the hand

The COMMERCIAL CONVENTION WITH GREAT
BRITAIN.-This Convention is now in daily session
in London. This Commission consists Of N. G.
UpHAM, Esq, of New Hampshire, and EDMUND
HoRNBY, Esq, of London, who, under the Conven-
ton, are authorized to appoint general umpire if
they can agree upon the party, or special umpire
in every case of disagreement. Mr.. UPHAM nomi-
mated our countryman, JOSHUA BATES, Esq, senior
member of the house of Barring Brothers, as the
general umpire, and the nomination has been cheer
fully acceded to by the British Government. Mr..
GEORGE PEABo DY, the American banker in Lon
don was first nssmed as umpire, but objected to by
the British Government, on the ground that he is
too exclusively American, and too exclusively con-
nccted with the American interests in London, to
be exactly the party to act as general umpire un-
der the treaty.-Baltimore american.

PLEASANT INCIDENT IN EvERY- DAY LIFE.-The tre-
mendous snow storm which for than two days last
week had rendered travel impossible Boston upon
the public highways and prevented many merchants who
do business in the city but reside in the country from
reaching town, has given occasion for the illustration Of
traits of human nature worthy Of being recorded with
pencil of fire. When the precise condition Of the roads
became knownand it rendered certain that ocomo-
tion was out of the question: resident merchant called
at the store Of nonresident trader and asked the clerk
if his master had reached town. aNo, sir" responded
the clerk "nnd it will not be possible for him do SO
inquired if any notes due The clerk said that he
knew of but one, for $4,000 which fell due Tomorrow
Friday) The merchant thereupon told the clerk that
in the event Of his employers not reaching town in time
to pay 1t to come to him, and he would furnish the
money The clerk did SO on Friday; and nothing could
be surprising to the gentleman than to
find upon reaching Boston that the noe which had cost
him so much anxiety and fatigue, had been honored by
dsnterested friend few instances Of this kind would
render ten feet OF snow agreeable Courier

refusal resisted the authorities to collect it; and
nnaiy demanded the reduction Of the fee shngs,

Philadelphia on Friday evening last, at which reso-
lutions were adopted deprecating the interference Of
Federal officers in State or local elections and con-
