"Your analysis of the slave laws Is very able,
and your exhibition of their practical application
by the Southern Courts evinces great and careful
research. 1t Is more easy TO make
than to refute charge of exaggeration against a
work of fiction like Mrs. Stoves but your book
is as impregnable against such charge as Eu-
clids Geometry since, like that it consists of
propositions and demonstrations. The book is not
only true, but it is unquestionably true"

ICE.--Our ice-men are taking advantage
of the cold weather, to relieve the Canal of
some of its overplus CONCEALED covering,
and are filling their cellars with this cooling
substance. Besides the ice dealers, we no
tice private persons preparing for the heat
of summer in this way.
The ice is from five to eight inches thick,
and about rs compact and solid as it ever
gets to be, in this latitude. We should pre-
fer to see it taken from some uncontamina-
ted lake, but this far south we must bury
the business before thaw, and do the best
we can. The ice now being put away,
though not immaculate, will not be hard TO
take in midsummer.

Man SHoT.-On Saturday night last,
youth named GEIGER was shot, under very
distressing circumstances. In the early part
of the evening, some rowdies collected
around the house of Mr.. GEO MENsINGER,
one of whom threw a brick through the
window. This party soon departed, and
another, of whom Geiger was a member,
came up, to "spiel some mus Hardly
had the serenaders got their in pents in
unison, when some fellow house
opened the door slight -,ance, poked
out a pistol, which was loaded with buck
shot, and discharged the contents into the
crowd of musicians. Two or three of the
shot took effect on young Geiger, lodging
in his groin. He is supposed to be danger
ously wounded, though probably he will
recover.

nsa-A south wind yesterday raised the
temperature of the weather, which for sew
eral days had been extremely cold. Night
before last there was halo around the
moon and prismatic appearance to the
clouds passing across the face of that orb.
All this indicates, we judge, fall of snow
soon, and probably a general thaw and
rain within week. The cold weather has
given good supply of ice with which to
alleviate the oppression of summer heat.

CHAmTEs.-We are requested by the

the receipt of the following donations:
From the Baptist Church, $1,000; from
the N S. Presby terian Church, $25.ooi from
the O. s. Presbyter Church, $27.OC; from
the Cumberland Pres Church, $500; from
the Locust street Meth Charch, $27.45; from
JoHN WESLEY lIUGHEs, $500; from NJ. w.
FOSTER, $500. Total, $l04.43.
The Ladies are expendihg this money ju-
, ,diciously towards the relief of the suffering
poor, in the purchase of provisions and fuel,
and in giving employment to poor women
in serving. They inform us that the suffer
ing in this city is far greater than is gener-
ally supposed We, who sit around our
own cheerful frcsides, in the selfish enjoy
ment of the comforts of life, know little of
the misery that is around US. They only,
who go out into the novels and haunts of
poverty, learn of the wretch ednees and deO-
titution in our midst. The cold winter is
upon us, and the Ladies Society can use all
the money which may be entrusted to them.
Let us not stint their labors by our want of
charity. Donations will be thankfully re-
ceived by Mrs. ISABELLA TURNER the Presi-
dent, and by Mrs. john w. FOSTER, Treas
urer, or by any of the members of the
Benevolent Association.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3, P. M.-The Tri-

protest against McLane's treaty with Juarez
will be presented to Mr.. Cass by Miramon's
representative in this city. Further intelli-

mon has projected another movement
against Vera Cruz. The treaty will be
pressed on the ground that unless we in-
terfere, England and France will, to our
exclusion.

of Claims, made vacant by the death of
Judge Blackford, will be given to James
