MATTERS OVER THE RIVER.

The NEW YEAR.-The noise and bustle
incident 10 the observance of the day COM
menced at an early hour on Sunday evening.
Guns, pistols, etc., were fired off at intervals;
and the clatter which increased about IA o'clock,
was kept up till daylight much 10 the annoy
ance of those who desired to sleep in quiet.
Bands Of halfgrown boys, and "boys OF larger
growth" were strolling about till daylight, with
horns, kettles, and other noisy instruments
many OF them dressed as clowns, some of them
negroes, with painted faces, and other foolish
decorations. They sought their homes drenched
inside and out, and with fair prospect of patro-
nizing the medical profession. To-day the snop
windows make a handsome display of articles
adapted to the holidays, drawing crowds to the
windows and counters. Umbrellas and over
shoes find a ready sale in consequence. The
usual church ceremonies were observed, espe'
cially oy the Methodist Episcopal congregations,
where the watch meetings" were kept up until
the hour of twelve announced newborn year.
ANOTHER NIGHT BoAT.-With the COM
menoement OF the new year the Camden and
Philadelphia Steam Ferry Company will start
night boat, which is to ply between Market
street. Philadelphia, and their new ferry depot,
in Camden. This Will be a great convenience to
Middle and South Camden especially. The want
of an additional night boat has long been felt,
and we are glad to find CAPTAIN FIazee so
prompt in conforming to the wishes of the peo-
pie.

Oh the wintry snow!
When toe north winds blow
On their plnions strong and high:
And the tempest shrOuds,
With its suen clouds,
The arch of the pleasant sky.
How sctt and white,
Like q mantle light,
1t tails on the hill and plain.
Where the fowerets day,
In the summer gay,
Were gemmed in the soft bright rain.
The gladstone child,
With its laughter wild,
Looks up in the frowning sky,
And the huge snow drifts,
And the wreaths and ritts
He halls with Rlek ming eye.
o, the stirring sight
Is the tempest white,
When the winds of winter blow!
