The Winter and its Behcsts.

Friday was the first genuine Winter day
with which the Metropolis has been favored and 1t
was quite as cold as the season usually is in this
vicinity the mercury being below freezing point IN
the shade during the entire q hours. The wind was
from the North. keen, bitter and cutingi the sky
clear and cold in hypoberean landscape and Pc
destrians hurried through Broadway and the Avenue
unified against the penetrating atmosphere
In luxurious drawing rooms and sumptuous bed
chambers where the sunbeams fell like shower OF
roses through crimson curtains and cheerful frelght
glanced against gded panels and rosewood and silken
tapestry and fell back with the soft hue OF Summer
upon fair happy faces that reveal suspicion of the
struggle for existence that is ever going on IN the
great world. camRess and content were there because
abundance sat between. TO those the biting blast and
the moaning wind brought only the deeper sense Of
comfort through the contrast without and within.
They drew nearer the blazing hearth. and gathering
their rich robes danty from the rudy CRATE had
pleasant visions OF Winter amusemens and gaities Of
balls and routs, Of skating parties and receptions OF
theater, and the opera without thinking Of the thou
sands WHO Sat over smodering embers shivering and
hungry moisening their hard crust with their copons
tears.

THE sALEOE STEAMERS.

At noon to day the sale Of steamers at the
Navy Yard attracted quite large crowd OF
merchants and steamboat men, among them
Representatives from nearly every principal
seaboard city in the Union. The sale was by
Messrs. W. L. Wall & Co, auetionesrs, and
the bidding was very spirited, the sale occa-
plying but little over one hour.
The vessels were offered in the following
oraer:-Baltimore, (steamooat,) formerly of
the Aqua Creek line, and used since the war
as an ordnance boat, sold for $4,000 to MIR.
dtrstaDd, to be put on the line between this
city and Baltimore, and will run in conjunc-
ton with the Columbia The Watch.
Lehr, of Baltimore. for $4,000, and Teaser,
which is the same class vessel, which was
captured the first year of the war in the Rap
pahannock, was sold to J. Bigler, Of New
engine propeller, OF about the same size. to T.
J. Southland, Of Richmond, Maine, for SO 500.
The Zeta, a recently purchased single engined
town. for $i $50. The Mystic, q propeller OF
about 157 feet, to Thomas r. Morgan and E. G.
Comstock. for s9,5oO. The Western World,
a opeller, 179 feet long, to H. X. Hazlehurst
OF Baltimo ore, for S24,5OO.
The thrs &c blockade runners, Bat, Dumbarton
and Lillian, the first steel plated vessel and
the others iron, were withdrawn after the first
had been run up to S55 600, the second to
S65, 0t0 and the third to $4,000.
The Juniper, (propeller,) Putnam, Cactus,
J. N. Seymour and Cpur de Lion, side wheel
propellers, were in the list to be sold, and there
were parties in the crowd who had fixed the
prices they intended to bid; but this morning
an order was received from the Department to
transfer them to the Light. House Board and
consequently they were Withdrawn.
The sale is acknowledged by all to have been
q remarkably successful one, the prices re.
ceived for the vessels sold being fully ND to
the expectations OF the officers at the yard: in
deed. the prices paid for some being several
thousands over what was estimated
1t is presumed that the three iron steamers
will be retained in Government service thew
being strong and fast steamers.
