THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 20.

The Snow STORM, which commenced early
yesterday, continued al day, and all last night,
with the wind from the northeast. Had there
not have been so much rain previously, and the
ground been 50 thoroughly saturated with wa
ter, the snow would have been deep one. As
it is, the earth was covered this morning to the
depth Of two or three inches The wind has
shifted, and the storm ceased just before day
this morning.
The wirtry aspect Of nature this morning
was stern enough for time-but the bright
sun soon shone outsaand sottened the harsher
features of the scene, Nothing could have
been more beautiful than the trees, with their
branches loaded with snow and 'arrayed In
garment of white.
\ dispatch in the Washington Star, dated
Fairfax Court House, January 9th, says -
*'Iast night the Federal pickets were driven IN
by some Of Stuart cavalry, woundlng one and
canturine nine. Col. Wyndham then started
with about two hundred men in pursuit. lie
came Up with the retiring enemy beyond Mild
}leburg, and after short engagement be cap
tured twenty -four Of Them.
The Washington Star argues that the pros
pect for the success Of the Federal arms was
never BRIGHTER than at present and that Il
nanc;al affa;r5 are the only drawback, and It
lies in the power Of Congress to arrange these
satisfactorily.

that if they Were allowed to leave England the
result would be a declaration of war On ths

Confederate cruisers He impored the Gov
eminent to take steps to proven the departure
of these vessels and informed them that the Am.

Majesty's Government.
Mr., Laird in response tainted Golden with
pursuing course, which, while it would ens.
bic his friends in the North to get all they
wanted, would put stop III England to leg
itimate branch Of industry. He accused the
u. S., of having built ships Of war for Rus,
sia during the Crimean var, and with raising
recruits in ireland since the outbreak Of the
present conflict. Paimerston defended the
course which the Government had taken and
said he could see no distinction between selling

crates.
