Why THE GAS GOES ourIS Com WEATHER.
MIR. Douglass, Secretary of the New York
Gas Regulator Co., writes letter to the
press, to tell the public why the gas fails in
cold weather, and the remedy therefor He
says where the frost strikes the pipes, in
crossings under iron gratings from the side
" IL OF IN al!eywa}s, Or any other opening,
It freezes the condensation Of gas, making d
kind Of erystllIzatlon or guaze work, like a
spider-web, and when the pipe is not too
large, Will completely stop the flow Of gas
This net work is similar to spider web. In
most instances it can be thawed out by sim
ply holding flame from newspaper, or
from a torch Of pine wood and alcohol upon
a shovel; it will IN a few moments be entire
IL free. All wet metres should be filled with
alcohol Immediately, if not done, and pipes
crossing upon open passages should be boxed
or covered with wooden coverings.-[N. Y.

NAsHiScToN, Jan. "A.
SgSATE.-Mr Clayton presented com
munication s7hich had been received from
the President in Executive session, and from
which the I'M JUNCTION Of secresy had been re-
moved, transmitting copy of letter from
Lord John Russell to Mr.. Champion, dated
Jan. ~, 1853, IN which il is declared that
the British Government intend to adhere
strictly to the treaty of Washington Of April
l9, 1850, and not TO assume any sovereignty
direct or indirect in Central America Mr..
Clayton moved that the letter be transferred
from the Executive to the Legislative journal
and printed. He then expatlated on the
usurpaton of Great Britain and the tortu-
rous diplomacy of her Minister, and stig-
matizing them as monstrous and disgraceful.
Mr.. Cass desired TO speak, but not being
we'll, he Welded the floor to Mr.. Mason, who
thought the debate was not exactly proper,
but defended the action Of the Executive so
far as he had read the documents. They
show a purpose on the part of Great Britain
to totally disregard treaty stipuations with
this country, and when the question shall be
presented to the Senate or Congress in a
tangible form by the Executive, there would
be no difference Of opinion as to the incum-
bent duty Of this Government. England

Mr.. Seward agreed with Mr.. Mason that
the debate ought not TO be INDUCED in until
the House is organized; still he thought there
ought 10 be no unnecessary delay in the set
Element Of this controversy with England
Delay and INDIGESTION lose good cause while
decision as often finds a bad one.
Mr.. Cass said he saw no reason why this
subject should not be fully discussed before
the American people, and moved to postpone
further consideration Of the subject till next
Monday. Agreed to.
HousE.-The House opened with PRAYER.
Mr.. Fuller withdrew his name as a candi-
date for Speaker, and expected that the
House would now adopt some plan by which
the present difficulties might be settled.

scourge Of young people, seminal weakness or noe

that he at least could not cure me- and as ! was

that unless something was done to mitigate the COM
