TmE GREAT STORM.
Fourteen Hundred and Ten Million
Tons OF snow Fallen.
From the Detroit Post, Jan. %.

"s t'te DetTOtt tOSt, Jan. u
Very few persons have any concep-
storm, such as that which the
telegraph reports as having oc-
Cured within the last few davs= The
| railroads have been blockadad nv
snow over strip of country extending
from Boston to Washington in a nnrtS
and south line, and from the Atlantic
70 Plke's Peak on an east and west
line. The storm may really be set
down, however, as covering a belt of
country a little over three hundred
miles wide. This storm belt first struck
the Atlantic coast upon the shores of
Maine with its western edge. Sweep
| ing at first southweSterly, being driven
before a strong northeast gale, it fully
entered the continens between Boston
and New York, passing, over the State
OF New York, with its western edge
at Buffalo and its eastern edge Mt
New York City, and sweeping south
west SO that its southern edge reached
beyond Wheeling, West Virginia. It
then changed its course to the westward
and passed on toward the Rocky Noun
tains, its southern limit showing four
inches of snow at Cairo, Illinois, and
its northernlimit reaching to Michigan;
its centre between Springfield, ILL.,,
where the snow is two feet deep, and
chicago, where the snow is one foot
deep. rtF tF5 = -
II we track the great arc of circle
followed by this storm, We find the
snow in Connecticut, at New Haven,
four feet deep; in Central and Southern
fenninsylvania, nearly two feet deep; in
indianapolis, Ind, fifteen inches deep;
in Springfield, ILL.,, two feet deep; in
st. Louis, one foot deep, and in Kansas
six inches to a foot deep. We may
safely calculate that the snow deposited
by this single storm on the continent,
not counting that which fell in the sea
before reaching the continent at over
one foot in depth over belt of country
three hundred miles wide and fifteen
hundred miles long; and that outside
of this belt atleast one-quarter as much
was deposited.
In order that an approximate idea of
the immense deposit of this single
storm may be conveyed to our readers,
We will enter into little calculation
Let us suppose the snow to have been
an ordinary dry snow everywhere, and
that evenly distributed, the main de-
post would have covered belt three
hundred miles wide and fifteen hun
dred miles long to a uniform depth of
one foot. Snow OF this depth of an or
dinarily dry character, will weigh five
tons to the acre. If damp it might
weigh nearly seven tons 10 the acre. AT
tive tons to the acre, there has fallen,
all over this belt, three thousand two
hundred tons upon each square mile,
or grand total OF fourteen hundred
and ten millions of tons of
snowi And this in one storm, from
one vast cloud, and within a space
of four days timeI This weight
is so vast that it is hard to comprehend,
Some idea of it may be gathered, per-
haPs, from the statement that it is
more than ten times the weight ofall the
wheat grown in the whole United States
since the continent of America was
discovered by Columbus!

AS we1udge, the combinations of in
tereSts against the bill now before the
Legislature to repeal the Act repeating
the charter ofthe COnnellsvilIe Railroad
Company, Is too strong to be overcome.
We wish the look was otherwise. but W.,
see no sufficient reasons for concealinp
our impressions. The railroads of This
State, leading to Philadelphia and Bal
tlmore, have certainly powerful in1u-
encer under their control. -
Quite recently important negotiations
have been had with the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad Company and the Baltimore
ana ONO Railroad Company, TO accom-
MEDIATE differences. These negotia-
tioDs were carried on by gentlemen
having interests in common with both
corporations. This much was ascer-
tanned.

From the south.

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-The Herald's
correspondence, from the principal
cities in the South, indicates a general
reaction politically among the southern
people. One of the means in use
among the Virginians to aid the wild
ows and orphans, is large lottery or
ganizaIion. Among the prizes which it
is proposed to give way, is the resi-
dence of JEFF. Davis, in Richmond, now
in the possession of the Government of
the United States.
Senator Campbell, from South Caro-
lima, defended Horace Greeley, the me-
gro lately convicted of the murder of
B. S. Rhett.
From Nashville the indications are
that no election for representatives
will be held in time for the
Fortieth Congress. Gov. Brownlow
will wait until August before he orders
an election, losing, il necessary, all
representation in the first session, so
that he may take advantage of the col
ored vote, which it seem certain will
be legalized in Tennessee in the coming
spring.
