Nuw Yonrw, Feb, 18,—Last Sunday afternoon, when the snow lay on the ground und the walke g was slippery and hard, a solitary horseman \was seen emerelng, as i the doys of Mr., Javies’ novels, from Madison Square. The horse was o fine blackish hay, with a little mettle in him. 1io switched his Jezs about airlly, amd on hls Dback sat what * nppeared to b the figure of Nupoleon Bunuvarte just vrosslng the Alps. A cap of Aluske seal fur fitted all round the rider’s head, mud ear- flaps further warmed the sides of his neck: wnd were tied under his chin.

After the canpaizn was over, Dorshclmer, withont other reuiark, betuok himselt to the ‘lrnut[uu of Jaw, dischorged his oflicial dutles ot Albany, and daritened no more the door of Gramerey Purk.
