Tug WrArnKR.--A dense fog with the wind from
the 8. W., settled upon the city Saturday morning,
and continued until after midnight. As a consequence
the erry-boa,s OH both rivers made irregular trips and
were Obliged to keep their bells ringing and whistles
blowing to warn other vessels Of their proximity, and
thus avoid collision. The Staten Island ferry boats
made but four trips during the day. The Roosevelt
street ferry did not run at ALL which caused much in
dignation the part of persons dwelling in Williams
burgh and doing business in NewYork, as they were
thereby put to the inconvenience of crossing by Grand
street and the Fucn Ferries. Navigation both to and
from sea was seriously impeded. Two accidents are
reported as happening to the Roswell King. While
anchored in the East River, she was into by the
bark Magdalena, carrying away the ibbOOn, and sub
seqUently by of the Fulton ferry boats, demolishDg
ber davits, but doing further injury. The ferry.
boat filled with passengers, but received no mate
rial damage Most Of the steamers which were to
ave on Saturday were detained till Sunday morning.
The Jamestown, for Norfolk, left at 3 O'clock the
Arogo for Havie, at 6; the City Of Washington, for
Liverpool at ESQ; the Marathon at 1870, and the
Alabama at Q. The wind yesterday was N. W., with
clear sky, and an atmosphere of moderate temper
ature. The snow has seeded and gone into liquida-
ton and Of course there il oeghing and the ice
has solved its union and there is TO skating.
