LOOK OUT FOR YOUR SIDEWALKS In consequence
of the very general neglect on the part OF house
keepers to cleanse their sidewalks, yesterday, from
the ice with which they were covered, mary persons
lost their balance and fell, sustaining thereby, Sc
we're shock. As yet we have heard of no serious
damage caused by the falls. Hous skeepers are not
perhaps aw are that they render themselves amenable
to the law for this neglect, and liable, in heavy
damages, TO any person who might, perchsnse, su'-
tain injury by falling upon the sidewalks.
We noticed in passing through the City yesterday
morning, that some few persons sprnked their walks
with ashes, salt which had the effect of pre-
venting the occurrence of aay accident little
salt will soon remove ice from your walks or ssoops
House keepers should bear this in mind

THE WEATHER.-On Saturday night, about
o'clock, snow commenced falling in right good ear
nest and many fast man" set bis heart upon a
sleigh-ride on the Avenue yesterday but they were
doomed to disappointment Toward day break, the
snow turned TO rain which froze upon reaching the
earth, covering the pavements and sidewalks in
every part of the City with heavy coating Of ice.
The walking yesterday particularly in the morn
iug-was very disagreesble and dangerous, and many
an unucky wight lost his balance and was sprawled
at full length upon the pavement. However, no Sc
rious accidents occurred The weather moderating
in the afternoon, the ice on the streets partially dis
appeared.

Our money article notices a rumor that the Collins
line Of steamers has been sold.

CATTLE by RAILROADS AND CATTLE IN THE
STREETS In consequence Of the change OF market
day TO Wednesday, the superintendent oil the Erie
Railroad has consented TO start the cattle express on
Sunday emitting the MONDAY train. This Will AVOID
all arrivals of cattle here at Bergen, as now FREE
ouently occurs Sunday In short, 1t is an arrange
nent that will produce the least possible interference
with the quiet of the people on that day. The stock
will arrive at Dunkirk Saturday evening, and al ssn'
rise Sunday morning will ali be on the cars, moving
ouietlv away eastward-the road being clear, upon
that day, of other trains.
Western droveu should take notice that stock must
all be started to reach Dunkirk Saturday night. II
cattle arrive Sunday, they must lie over TIL tuesday
Those started upon the Erie Road, from Dunkirk,
Sunday morning, will be sure to arrive in time Tor
the We dnesday market.
Ohio papers should notice this change, as it is made
in special reference 10 the accommodation Of the oss
,le men of that and other Western States
The stock business Of the Erie Railroad has in
creased 10 such an enormous extent that 1t requires
very heavy force TO keep the read clear and great
deal of care on the par; of the Superintendent depart
mspt to keep supply Of cars at all the stoek'hPpng
stations. Mr. MsCullom and his subs all appear de-
tsrpned TO spare no effort to render the business -
perfect and satisfactory to drovers a. possible This
is of the utmost importance to the consumers OF meat
in this City.
But few are aware how dependent We are upon
railroads for the daily supply Of our table. Buts
very small portion OF the animals slaughtered in the
C;,y now reach it on foot. There is, however, one
great error in the transportation. Now, the Erie
Road unload. cattle at Bergen, whence hey are
driven TO the Hob0ksn Ferry, and crossed over into
the crowded streets Of the lower part OF the CITY
Tbs average per week OF ton thousand hogs BY thus
road come by way Of Permont and boats to Duane

PosT.OY BoxEs.-We have received two or
three violent articles concerning the increase Of box
rent at the PJt Office but the writers have chosen
10 withhold their names their communications have
gone inso the basket We find, in another paper,
what We presume is official explain stion of tho
reasons for the step taken by Postmaster Fowler.
The stat is that he ha, determined TO raise the
rent Of private letter boxes Kept at the Post Office
from e. to &C year. This step 10 alleged, has been
rendered necesary by the fact thst heretofore this
department has not paid for itself and certainly mer
chants will not object to pay the additional 50, es-
pecially as they are promised iscressed facilities for
the delivery of letters The number Of private letter
boxes now in the department is $780, and the yearly
revenue is sli O00 Preparations are now making
TO add 700 boxes those already in use which with
the additional rent will make the total revenue
eos 200 The incro ssed sum thus derived will he de-
voted to the employment of from ht TO ten additional
clerks, who are much wanted as the depart Dent is
short banded. The clerk. in the Post Office
compelled 10 work from twelve to fifteen hours day,
and sometimes even longer This is certainly unfair,
and it is 10 be hoped that the employment of few
more clerks will give them the tiue they now 50 much
REQUIRE The increased number OF boxes will supply
went that has long been felt; indeed, so great hr
been the demand for box facilities that bonuses OF
from $50 to $50 have been paid for their use. As
msny as 200 names of merchants and ethers hive
been on the Post Office books at one time waiting for
vacancies The additional boxes will be supplied by
Jan. l, 1855.
