Although winter isa bard time for the poor, aud al- though the cald will find its way into the pores of tho skin of the rich, still the omusements of the season take Off much of its bitterness, If we had no winter thero could be no snow, consequently uo sleghing. If we hat no frost we could have no ive, consequently no skating. ‘We beg pardon, we overlooked the parlor akatos. But that is not the skating that is meant—the manly and graceful gliding over the ice upon stee! runners. Severe winters, like winds, bring good to somebody. Juiging by the ap- pearance of the hardware stores at the prasent time, win- ter has set the skate makers at work. When the rigor- ous winter that visited England in 1814 caused the ‘Thames to freeze over, a skating fair was held on the river, and a bullock roasted whole, a la Douglas, upon the ice, This severity of weather, although common to us, was & rarity there, and the Londoners made the mos of it. In Russia, on the Neva, when the very rigorous season of winter sets in, tho inhabitants imme diately repair to the ice to enjoy the sports thereou. Ice castles are built, furnished and Deautifully illuminated; and s0 many persons, male and female, assemble together as to make the season quite pleasant. Skating, sleighing, are indulged in ag readily as if the thermometer did not show a degree far below zero, In Canada skating parties often start along @ river and travel for miles, making the woods which line the shores echo with their merriment. But toreturn bome. The two chief amusements ou the ice here are sliding and skating, but as the former is easy to learn our remarks will be chiefly upon the latter. Skating is truly a fascinating pursuit, and would seem to be in- vented ag recompense for our inability to fly. In fact, with good skates on our feet, and smooth ice beneath them, weneed not envy the birds. Those who do not skate can have no idca of the fascination which the art exerts over those who are well accustomed to it. A mode of progress, not untike flying, is attained by the accom: plished skater, who needs no powerful exertion to propel him, but sails about as if by simple volition. Curling, gofilug and hockey are games on the ice, but these we have not to do with in our present remarks, which we commence with » few words upon the ORIGIN OF SKATING. ‘The ancients have always borne the reputation of being very dexterous in all kinds of athletic and mauly sports; yet wo do not find any mention of skating having becn practised among them. We may, therefore, consider it as a modern invention, and doubtless originated among the Dutch, where it was and still is used, not only asa graceful and elegant accomplishment aud a healthy ex- ereise as well as amusement, but also as a meausof ex- pediting travel when the lakes and canals with which Holland abound are frozen up for the winter. Many who would have had to walk from place to place found that by putting on a pair of ‘flat kind of shoes, armed with iron or steel,”” and gliding along those canals, not only was the labor of locomotion greatly diminished, but the speed was toa rapidity it equal to that of a horse upon the road. Even at the present time Journeys are made in Holland, upon skates, with ease and expedition; and the Dutch women often travel from places at a long distance to the Amsterdam markets with baskets of oggs upon their heads. But, as ‘8 general thing, far less attention is paid in that country to the grace and elegance of the skater’s movements than Es, + eae es and celerity of what is called journey Skating was, however, practised in a very peculiar mouner in England several centuries ago. Fitzstephon, in bis description of London, which work is of very great antiquity, says:—“Whenne ye great fenne or moor = wateroth ye walles At ye citie on ye north sin} is frozen, many young men on ye yce.” Speaki on this ubject) in another part of the sume Work. De says:—“Some siryding as wyde as they may doe slide swiftly ; asome tye bones to their feete and under their heeles, and, shoving themsclves by a little picked staffe, doe slide as swiftly as a birde flyeth in yo air or an arrow out of a crosse-bow.’’ Now this, at all events, is a kind of ekating, although the ae used were of the rudest character. It matters little whether the runners be formed of steel or bone, so that they be runners, to de- signate such motions on,thoe ice as skating. A cutter or sicigh, driven along the ico is a species of skating on a gigantic scale, the only difference being in the motive power. SWIFTNESS IN SKATING. As we have before stated, in some countries swiftness upon the ice is more desired and sought after than ele- gance, In iriesiand, a country nuted for its very rigor- ous winters, a regular race course is formed upon the ice, and males and females join in the skating contest. It is @ very common thing for the men to be most shamefully ‘beaten by the women in these races. In 1808, at Goldin- gen, two women entered on a contest in a prizo skating race, and accomplished the distance of thirty miles in tw» hours. A speed of fifteen miles an hour has maay times been recorded as boday § been on skates. In Canada swift it most of in connection with the accomplishment. an instance of records an officer iu the army skating from Montreal to Quebec, a distance of over one hundred and seventy miles, in one day. When we consider that the ice on ariver like the St. Law- rence is not quite so smooth as the Centra! Park jee, it must be acknowledged that the feat was a difficult ono and required a little perseverance. Lincolnshi: England, is noted for its fens, which in winters freeze over and form a splendid, wide eight scotia. “As two-forty is not considered a bad pace for a trotting 4 Cony B two-Gfty-eight is a good gait for a bipe’, oven if he on runnors. That our juveniles are anxious to shine in the celerity of their motions on the ice may be gathered from the fect that when the skating on the ia on either side of the Fourth avenue was in “! blast,’ as soon as the whistle of the locomotive was heard, a large crowd would be gathered at one end of the pond to await the arrival of “the bullgine,”’ and as soon as it came side by side with the skaters, off they would start cars before they could arrive at the end. Of cours the boys do not yet ‘beat the express,” but there is no knowing what the Fe gpd of a New York boy cannot accomplish; weil as elegsnt -kating may soon be one of the features: of the Central Park skating pond; and as there are twen- ty acres of ice for the purpose, we can cheerfully say, “Go it, boys.” ADVANTAGE TO THE HUMAN FIGURE. Jt is only in those countries where skating is considered ag an amnasement that the beauty of its graceful attitudes and movements can be studied, and no exercise whatever can be devised calculated to set off the human figure to better advantage. Therefore, as skating does not be- come a necessity in this city, those who practice it do Bo from a desire to be jjent in its very minutiw, so that it may form one of their winter pleasures. That such is the wish of many who frequent our Central Park —_ the skating season may be jutyed from the siraple fi that when oue ex, ices any pretty Agure «pou the ice novices may 8! aiter be seen in corners at- tempting to do the same. This feature is to be observed more among our rising tions, although older do not obiect, to take feceons from otbere, and rt Yeare we shall find that instead of @ fine and clegant skater being @ rarity worthy of notoriety the opposite will ‘be the case, and bad skaters will become » ADVANTAGE OF LEARNING TO SKATE RARLY. The acquirement of most exercises may be obtained at an edvaneed period of life; but to become an expert skater it is necessary to begin the practice of the art at a very early age. Therefore, timid mothers, you should not object to your children learning to skate for fear they should break their “precious heads and limbs.” A few tumbles will help to make them keep their feet the better. Besides, a child has not #0 far to fali as a grown man, therefore if they should strike the head, which. by the way, is of rare occurrence, the foree of the fall is as if it wore that of a man six feet and In Holland children not over five or six years of age are commonly to be seen proficient in this It ts difficult to reduce the art of skating to @ ays. It is principally by the imitation of a good skater a young can form his own practice, and fact our New York joveniles fully appreciate. An ish author says:—''Tho English, though often ro- markable for feats of agility upon skates, are very de- ficient in gracefulness, which is partly owing to the con- straction of their ‘They are too m' curved in the surface which embraces the ice, consequently they involuntarily bring the users of them round on the outside upon a quick and small circle; whereas the skater, by using skates of a different con- struction, less curved, hae the command of his stroke, and can enjarge and diminish the circle ac cording to his own wish.” “Edinburg,” says a Scottish writer, “bas produced more instances of elegant skaters than perhaps eny other city or country.” much did the desire of becoming graceful skaters exist among the roeidents of Edinberg that aseariy, if not earlier, then the year 1780, a skating club was established im that city + hich contributed rauch towards the improvement thore engaged inthe study of this sevomplishment or amusement A PRW WORDS ABOUT SKATES.

We have seen an {mn- provement upon this, viz —A skate which fixes into the sole of the boot by means of a flange, with dovetail socket and plate, aud also into the heel by anether bm of fastened by ® suuwil screw stationarity’ inserted in tue side of the heel leather. No straps are needed at all to fasten on the skate, and it is adjustable iu a second or two. A metal plug keeps the socket clean when not in . Stephou Dunne, of Nassau strect, has the patent . The heel screw of the ordinary skate seems to be @ source of anaoy ance to , therefore another invon- tion has been introduced, fasiening the skate to the heel by meaus of two ctutches lined with 3 |, which ore tightened upon the sides of the heel of boot by means of a horizontal se: ew beneath, worked by a thumb key, similar to that belonging toa cleck. The brass sole is secured forward by means of a narrow adjustable brass strap across the toes, regulated by a thumb screw.

Another invention is a laced up over shoe, with the skate attached. Tuis shoe being made of soft leather is portable, and when laced up the foot has as much play as if only in a Leot, whilo the skate is firmly fixed. Costello’s ladies’ patent skate, similar to that of 8. Dunne’s, is to be had at Slater’s ladies’ fancy boot store, 858 Broadway. To attompt to describe all the varions kinds of little improvements made in skates would take more space than we could at the present crisis afford. THY PARK YESTERDAY was a scene of life indeed. It seemed as if every per. son of New York who could spare time had tried to de- vote a portion of their leisure to visit the Park, and the various colors of their attire contrasted strongly with the snow clad ground. The lowering sky of the previous evening had produced ‘a bright to-morrow,” and the forenoon was enlivened by the cheering rays of the sun, which shone from a clear sky. Although wind blew from a northerly direction and was very biting, still ey re. uiy what is required to those on the pond did not mind it a Vit, at least dit not show any very greet amount of displeasure. The somewhat hea’ of snow had formed a sj lid sor- face for sleighing, and the frost another for skating. With regard to the former it might easily be classified as A SLEIGHING CARNIVAL. On the drive there were a greater number of sleighs and cutters than have before been seen together at one time for nearly two years. There were single horse cutters and two horse sleighs almost without number; and two beautiful equipages attracted the attention of all who beheld them. (ne was a double cutter, with four dashing gray horses, almost covered with bells, which sent forth a volume of music at each of the horses. The other was a similar vehicle drawn fend bays. see Sagling of the sleigh bells mingling with the subdued roar of the seeing over the ice, formed what would seem to “vies, &bermmomtrwe Piewuists tty and other vebioles on wheels were also as uf they place. a in it and ensconced under heavy buffalo Beem w ity the wind which blew across the Torrace and other elevations with a bitter coldness, and drew tears from the 'es of the more exalted drivers. THE LADIES’ POND, t was estimated, was visited yesterday by nearly a thou- sand of the “ fair sex.”” Of course alarge number of these were merely spectators, but fully one-half either had their skates put on or amused themselves by a glide over the ice in “chairs on runners.’’ This part of the pond is now enclosed by a wire fence, which at a distance can scarcely be seen, and a lane on the ice is so construct- ladies can from thence to the larger pond taking off their skates or leaving the ice; in fact, they can skate from one part to the other if they wish. Many Indies, as om the previous day—which was before tue fence was put up—left their squat! pond for the larger, and glided about the masculines. A skater finds she is cramped when on a small space, and if once outside it takes a great deal of persuasion to induce her to return, One arrest was made yesterday, in canse- quence of Syn fy rennes tag skate on the ladies’ pe Page a female companion, and the magistrate the offender, ai the same Yme giving him « severe reprimand. ON THE LARGER POND there was a great amount of life and rapid movement. A few daring young men, fancying they had not room cnough on the ice that was safc, would skate behind the “danger” boards, and three paid for their tomerity by getting a cold bath gratis. The mgna are placed very prominetly whore any opening exists, so that there is no real cause for auch a crisis unless are either very daring or very careless. The officers warn all persons who appear to approach danger without looking where they going, but many times their warnings are entirely disregarded. THE ILLUMINATION AT NIGHT had a very pretty effect. Professor Grant, who has con- tracted with the Commissioners to light the pond, had two calcium lights, the rays of whith being reflected by the snows made the pend quite bright, but one unfor- tunately froze up from exposure. On Monday night he wil have bis lighthouses erected if all go well, thus pre- venting a recurrence of such an event. The Solferino 18 of the dangor boards, the illuminated paper lanterns Radford’s tent, the outside reflector camphine lamps of tho refre-hment saloons, the various colored bull's eye lanterns attached to the skaters’ waist belts, formed a brilliant scene amid the surrounding It wae the intention of the saloon keepers to have had a dis- charge of fireworks, but the regulations of the Park for. bade it. A large number of both ladies and lemen were present, and skated until a iste hour. At ten o'clock @ gang of.ice cleaners were set at work to prepare the ice for to-day. They were to work ali nigiit. THE SIDEWALKS OF THE PARK wore yesterday cleared of the snow, so that pedestrians could with comfort reach the pond from the avenue en. trances. Those entering the Park by way of the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh avenues, and traversing the Mall, could reach the ise by means of the steps leading under the Terrace, without crowsing ony road om which the sleighs were travelling, bps age . oe snow over ‘heir fees, as the thereto had the snow cleaned off, This made \t very convenient for ladies or children who chose rather to walk than to ride to the pond.

Hi a native of Shore- bam, and a graduate of Middlebury College and Newton Theological Institution ‘We learn from the Alton (Ill.) Democrat, of the death of Father Carroll, for many years the Catholic pastor at Alton. He was otaong the carliest setuerg of that city, He made it his home and the iield of his labors when it was but a villageyand while is was yet deatitate of any Catholic church. By unremitting toil he succesded in securing the erection of a very neat aud suitable church, which woe several years destroyed by fire. Un- daunted by this reverse, Father Carroll immediately commenced collecting funds for another larger church, better suited to the increased wants of his congregation: ‘and to his exertions, the second time, is Alton mainly indebted for the beautiful cathedral on State street, As a man, as & pastor, in every relation, he was endeared to his flock and respected by the community in which he lad lived so long as to earn from ali, a8 from his congre- gation, the name of “Father Carroll.’ The last few years of his lifo were spent in Elgin, where he was parish priest.

The detention was caused by the steamer getting aground when leaving Southampton. From the interior of Carthagena we lave received no letters or news of the revolution. By the arrival of the British steamer Anne at Panama, from Guayaquil and intermediate ports, on the 29th ult., we have no definite news from Buenaventura. ‘The government officers keep a profound silonce on the news from this place, but I have been assured from a re- liable source that the greece! government is losing round ia that part of the country as weil as ou the At- jantic. The ryt of Buenaventura was threatened by a force of the liperal party. The troops of the conservatives ‘were compelled to remain on board the vessels in port, for fear of being surprised and all being taken prisoners, This confirms the news in my last of a force being at the river Colima, ready to attack Buenaventura as goon as they received reinforcements from the interior of the State. . ‘The foreed loan, ordered by the general government to be raised in Panama, amounis to $9,000. Many of thoxe asscased have refused to pay, and are determined not to pay, and will hold the government re- sponsible for all damages, When the Collector calls on the different parties for the payment he is always met with a scowl and a “No.” The Collector informs them that if they don’t pay their renta will be collected. Ho is then very coolly told that if be does he is lucky, for it is more they ean do, os the times are so hard that the te- nanté cannot pay’ their rent. The tax bas beeu assessed on only one = of the citizens who are entitled to pay it. Nearly all the autho- rities are property owners, and some of the largest ones, and are exempt from paying.
