Another cold snap seems to bave visited all the A\'80. tho cast east of the Alleghapy mountains. Qo Tharwda Y night the thermometer fell to ten degrees in thie eity, ‘and to the North and Eart zero was reached {pn many places. Yesterday, however, tho weather moderated, the mercury marking twenty degrees to twenty four de grees mort of the day ‘The cold weather itself, however, could be borne very well, were it not that it brings with it vast flelde of ive tbat fillour harbors and rivers, and detain not only ferry batall kinds of navigation. Most of this ice forms in the North river, and overy tide brings down great masses, which, if unchecked, floats out to sea by way of the Narrows; but unfortunately, the tide in the North river changes two bourse later than that of the East river, and ail the floating ice in the bay finds its way om the turn of the tide up the East river, an¢ the channel is liab!e to be choked un- til another tide floats it back aga's. The severity of the cold this year up the river seems to bave generated un ‘usual quantities of ice, and siaoe 1862 thore has not been so much difficulty in the harbor as we have had this year. Opposite Spuyten Dey vell, on the North river, yes ferday, the ice scemed like one shoot from shore to shore. It was, however, broken in places and a slight movement was perceptible, but the channel of the rivor was entirely bid. A continuance of the cold of Thursday night for a few days would have made it possible to ‘walk across to Jersey. Opposite Christopher street a Lptle of the water of the river was here and there to be seen, but the flows were so thick as to entirely stop navi- gation. Further down the channel was clearer, but the amount of ice all around the waters of Manbattan Island is altogether unusual, This state of things has com- polled the ferry companies to stop the following ferries for the present, viz — Hamilton avenue, Brooklyn. forry. Sowh ferry, Brookl; n. Peck slip to Williamsburg ferry. Brioge street, Brookivn, terry. Gonverneur street, Brooklyn, ferry. Catt 0 streot, Brookiyn. ferry.

Many bad to cross in the Jersey City forry boats onda var to Hibokem, Bot even these boats, though built with au eye to roagh weather and ico, wore from thirty to fifty minutes in crossing; and during the night the only boats thet left were those that counected with he New Jersey Ratiroad All the immenee travel of South Brooklyn bas been diverted for the last fow days to tne Falton aterry, ~ the Breoklya eit ratiroads have coasc« iently reaped « rich barvest. 80 thick was the ice at the terry oe t rat ih the utmont aM watiy toons Sirens boats got in ai ps. the throng of parsongers was 0 great yeoterday morning that carts and wagoas could no be accommodated for eeveral hours. fhe Ww street ferry rau only oc: ually throughout tho © Peck siip ferry to Willaqsburg, rua rengin of the Ki r eattal con. fideration, a# there was aiways & 4 isbility of Camaging the bosts, The only otner ferry on the Kast river that ran wih eovtbing like regularity was the Grand treet ferry to Williawmeburg sod even tnero the boata was often thirty minut’s in crossing.
