of Snow. cones on tho Streets and on the River—Glaciers in the Bay—Detention of the Mails—Acci- dents and Incidents on Land and Water— The Storm Throughout the Country. ‘The snow storm which setin yesterday morning wéefore daybreak was followed by a sharp north. ‘easter which conunned all day, and seriously damaged business on land and on the river, Down fame the frozen particles driven along by the biting ‘wind in @ perpendicular line, and then, as if tired of the monolany of peltiug one straicnt in the face, It turned and mixed, and danced and played fantastle 4ricks, but stili came thick and fast, dashing up the nostriis and into the ears and down one’s throat if one chanced to have one’s Mouth open until one thought the elements had cased to war among themselves and come down ttent on worrying poor human nature. Horses slipped and fell along the streets ta every direction, Pedestrians frequent!y foilowed their ex- amp'e with less patience, aud then dived betind the mystery of fro ted glass doors at an adjacent cor- ner to find a catapiasm for their wounded pride. ALONG THE DOCKS and quays traMe was almost at a standstill, except im the rum shops, which were all doing a thriving Dusiness, each one with its own peculiar class, Men guddied around the blazing stoves in these pestife- Tous holes; they hopped on one leg, then on the other; unbuttoned thelr coats and squeezed their hands: thew faces brightened, for they now had Teached the oasis in the desert. There was the man of commerce, who came in with a dash and banging of the doors; shock the snow from his heavy, com- fertable overcoat, and, after toasting his hands a ttle before the fire, took a straight whiskey quick to put his BLOOD IN CIRCULATION, and departed. There was the old, habitual “bum, with palsied hand and red-edged, oozing eye; a piping voice that told of tonsils long. since burned and eaten away by liquid fire. His (ace unshorn, and vhe rough stubbies of a six orseven days’ growth of tinted gray and black ana rel, thick, stunted haw creeping over the circumference of his dicated face, marked the constitutional drunkard, ‘There was, too, the classical man, who quoted Virgil and Horace (not Greeley, but he of Rome); ‘Was famiitar with Romer and spouted Shakspeare after the manner of Macready; who bad a head- quarters on the other side of town, where he ar- rived always first in the morning, took down the shutters for Jobnny, swept and sawdusted the floor and took a nip in payment. He had, like- wise, a little trick he played in strange localities. After using up the classics and exhausting the supply of funny stories around the stove fer nil, he took @ arlnk—of water, and fell into a fit, While he struggies and foams at the mouth the Tough crowd hold him tenderly. “See if he has any SALY IN HIS POCEET, Jack.” “No he aint.” “Beat,” cries the barman; jerk him out on the sidewa'k."” He ts jerked forth- with, and, rising from his downy bed of “heautifal sbow,” imprecations come irom away deep down in his callous, blackened heart, The sceue throughont the continuance of WEST AND £0UTH STREETS was most desolate. These usnally busy and o crowded thoroughfares were deserted, except in rare instances, and these only helped to make the absence of the others more conspicuous, ores and ‘warehouses were closed and the saow clung to the tron portals and built itself up against their sides, Not a vestige of human life was visible in all the ships that crowd the docks on both sides of the Battery, except now end then some Southern steamer discharging cotton, A gveat forest of masts spreading mile op mile away Tar as the eye could reach, with their BARE CORDAGE AND FORSAKEN DECKS, ‘the snow driving pitilessly against the masts, caus- ing a harsh, discordant noise, that made the blood run cold with the utter desolation of tae view, The wind came howling as it shook the rigging, and went on, moauimg, gathering strength upon its way, dashing furiousiy against the windows of the neighborwg houses, aud the Inhabitauts within, mitting costly before the fire, thank Heaven they have #0 good a shelter in this fearful storm. Still it goes on, this ERCILESS SNOW-LADEN BLAST of bitter winter wind, and as it passes the poor empty hoyel and bare, starved wausoleums, nick- mamed tenement houses, where fre is rarely seen, but bungry stomachs, pinched and famished faces fre in plenty, sickness is there lying shivering on the soddened siraw, and the poor courageous heart that had hoped to see the sunshine ef the spring time and see the trees burst into bloom and great mature put on her holiday attire, hears its death knell in that melancholy, moaning wind, that comes eweepmg around the building and takes no eed of the misery within, A THICK FOG had settled upon the Jersey shore, completely velling i, So that it looked through the mist like some for- eign land in the dim custance across the water. In the bay the ice was a serious obstruction to the or- dinary navigation; large masses Of frozen show were noating down with the tide, increasing as they went, During many years SUCH A STORM HAS NOT BEEN KNOWN in this vicinity, The Staten Island ferryboats had great difficulty in crossing. “The river,’ sir,” said ‘whe captain of one of those boats to a MERALD re- porter who called there in the afteraoon—*‘there is Ao river; 10’3 all ice.” The Pomona, of the North Snore ferry, 1s said to be 1ce-bound at Elm Park, on che Kil von Kull, Another boat of this line, tne Castleton, came up yesterday more than an hour be- dind ume, When off Sailors’ Suug Harbor she RESCUED A MAN who had nearly perished tu the effort to cross the stream 10 an open boat, having been struggling in the ice, unable to move In either direction, since s1x o'clock in the morning. Shortly after this she picked up two men ina similar situation in another ice- bound rowboat, When off the lighthouse pilot vost No, 22 was discovered completely embedded in the ice, having been drifting about all ht without veing abie to find a passage seaward. The Castic- won took Ler in tow and brought her io the city, In the city the only ineans of locomotion that was ‘at all safe Waa “shanks’ mare,” and that was by 10 means sure. Gentlemen whose affairs take them own town preferred walking to TRUSTING THEMSELVES IN THE MORSE CARS. ‘Though each lime had four horses to every car and an extra man at the brake, still their progress was apy thing but satisfactory. Snow ploughs and brashes were kept constantly clearing the tracks of ever: line 10 tne city, but they became filled up again al- most as fast as they were cleaned. Towaras the af- ternoon the few ladies who were obliged to venture out preferred the sidewalks to the snatl pace and stifliug of he horse cars. “The suow beating in your face and bitading your eyes, sir,’ said one iady, ‘is nothing in comparison to sitting in a car, with the fumes of wiissey entirely eating up the little air that is allowed to creep in, and then to ride but two or three blocks, when the horses are rested for an hour. J have uo objection to the horses having @ rest—I wish they could be done without op such @ day as this eitogether—but I do onject to horse cars and so I walk when! cau.” <A gentie- man on loaviug the HeRaLD building in the after- noon noticed two ladies standing ou the sidewalk Waiting for a car to go nop town; lis business deiamed im an hour, vut wea he came back they Were Just about to start aud Walk, one of them re- Marking, “1 told you WE SHOULD HAVE TO WALK ud may Just as well have started an hour ago.” A terribie storm! ‘The worst in many years! fright- fait Wont be through till daylight !—are a few among the maby characterizations one coustantly heard ali day throug. TUE FERRYBOATS MADE NO YRETENSION whateyer to keeping time, and If they did they could not sustain it from the heavy blocks of ice rushing rapidly down the river. Some of the boats, those on the North river, for instance, that ordina- ily make the trip in ten minutes, took more than hall an hour, and, tp some cases, un bour to accom. lish the crossing Of the river. The Brooklyn boats, irom their build, lad less to fear from the ice tan ‘any of the others, and, consequently, made netter time, The thermometer in Jersey Oily was at zero, ‘The heavy {ailing of the snow slung te lines caused the DETENTION OF A LARGE NUMBER OF THE MAILS.

The House Committee on Foreign Affairs had under consideration to-day the bill introduced by Mr, Buillnton regarding the Alabama claims. Mr. John A. Parker, of New York, who represents many of the claimants, was before the committee. General Banks, the chairman, after stating that the bill in question provided for the appointment by the Presi- dent of a commission to audit the claims for British spoliations, the government then to assume and pay them by an issue of bonds for the amount found to be justly due, requested Mr, Parker to state what he had to say on behalf of the claimants. Mr. Parker stated that from eight vo ten years had elapsed since the chief part of these depredations were committed, and the sufferers now thought that their losses should not be increased by longer delay of settlement, He said there was now every indication of a willingness on the part of Great Britain to pay all reasonable claims as soon as they could be fairly adjusted, The claimants had applied to the government for liberty to goto England and collect thetr claims in person, but permission was refused. In the opinion of the claimants, by such refusal the government had ren- dered itself legally able, as far as any government can render itseif Hable to a private citizen, for the value of the claims, and was therefore equitably hound to assume them. The government being only a trustee, he said, had no rignt to complicate these claims, which were claims for money only, with questions of a purely national or political character and not involving any pecuniary obligation. He argued that the assumption and payment of the claims by the United States, after having them fairly audited, would facilitate a settlement with England by enabling the government to present a definite claim. In respect to pecuniary damage the matter would need no turther adjudication; and, further, the government would be enabled to use the spolia tion claims in offset of counter claims or for any other purpose, which they could have no legal right to do unless they should first become the owners of the claims. In reply to qnestions by Mr. Wood, Mr. Parker said that he thomght the insurance companies generally received more war premitims than they paid losses, bet the property destroyed was lost to the country, and by insurances the loss became transferred from the individual to the insurance company, who for a small premium had guaranteed against capture, He raid the premiums charged were very light, the highest five per cent, but generally only about one percent. The right of reclamation and salvage was always an element of the premium charged, aud that without the right of reclamation from England the war premiums would have been two or three times greater than they were, General Banks asked whether the parties paying a premium fur the war Tisk had not a right to recover it back, and Mr. Parker answered that all that could be recovered was the full value of the property desiroyed. ‘The premium of Insurance was paid for a guarantee, to save the trouble and delay of looking to a foreign government, and it the ship was captured the insured party assigned all his interest to tne insurance com- pany, with the right of salyage; but if the ship went safely to her destination the insured party got in the guarantee of the insurance company all that he paid for, and had no right to anything besides. The hour for adjournment baving arrived the committee postponed the further cousideration of the subject to another day. Grand Democratic —** Powe Wow ?-—Sunnet Cox’s Banquet m Hosor of Blair and Hendricks. Samuel 8. Cox, better known as “Sunset Cox,” whilom of Ohio, but now of the Sixth district of New York, gave ao elegant entertainment ut the Arlington this evening to his friends of the demo- cratic party, It was of the character of the demo- cratic love feasts of the olden time. The entire company was composed of gentlemen, but there was no particular ceremony. There were gentle- men intull dreas and gentlemen in their ordinary morning suits. Corcoran, the militonnaire, was not more warmly congratalatea by the distinguisned host than was the democratic voter who finds it aiMicult to make both ends mect. Sam Cox could not be an aristocrat. He is a natural born demo- crat, in the true significance of that word, His petite figure seemed to be ubiquitous to-night. The party was given in the mansion formerly occupied by Reverdy Johnson, but which is now a part of the Arlington House, fam was upstairs im the smoking room, down in te lunch room, out in the corridors, in the cloak room, apparentiy everywhere at once, Not a single wan tated to { grasp his welcome hand. BE DRANK WITH EVERYBODY, and yet when the last man le/t he was as sober a6 @ judge, ‘The assemblage was large and charac- teristic. Jt would ve almost as easy to tell who of the democratic party was ab- | seut as to give a st of those who were | Present. Some prominent gentlemen like Governor | Hoffman, Mayor Hall and Boss Tweed had been in- vited, but they did not putin an appearance. The | Party was yiven in honor of Senator Biatr, of Mis- | Sourl, and ex-Senator Wendaricks, of Indiana. ; Among those present were cx-Senatur Hen- dricks, ex-Senator Johnson, of Arkansas; ex-Post- master General Montgomery Blair, Generals Frankiin and Marcy, ex-Senator Reverdy Johnson, Governor Bigler, of Pennsylvania; Justice Field, of the Supreme Court; General £lijah Ward, of New York; General Lefevre, of Ohio; Senators Thurman, Casserly, Bayard, Stockton, Johnston, Vickers, Hamilton, of Maryland, and Blair; Representatives Fox, Addéms, Archer, Axtell, Beck, Biggs, Bird, Burr, Colkin, Cleveland, Cyrebs, Oox, Wood, Eldridge, Getz, Griswoid, Haight, Haldeman, Hemill, Holman, Johnson, Thomas L. Jones, Kerr, Marshall, McCormick, Morgan, Mun- gen, Niblack, Potter, Reeves, Randall, Rogers, Schumaker, Slocum, Stiles, Stone, Trimbie, Van Au- ken, Van Trump, Voorhees, Weila, Eugene Wilson | and Woodward. There was ex-Mayor Berrett, Pay- | Master Bridges and other prominent democrats of | Washington, “Here are the men,” said a leading | democrat, “who will nominate the next dem- ecratio candidate for the Presidency,” and he pointed to the leading spirits of the party With a feeling of conscious pride. The South was not unrepresented. There was Phillips, of Alabama, Johnson, of Arkansas, and others whose names are not unfamiliar to the pubitc ear. Vance, of North Carolina, Was expected, but did not come. Thero ‘Was no speechmaking. Most or those present were 100, Adolph | familiar with all the speeches tnat have been made, bY | or that can be made. Sam Cox was determined to make the occasion a feast of reason and a flow of | soul About half-past ten o'clock the assemblee | masses began to aigcuss the good things provided by mine host, The repast was lavish. The wines were of the best, and for a couple of hours ail went merry a8 @ marriage bell. still tnere were mo speeches. People wonderea why Senator Biair was not toasted, ‘The band played familiar airs. Little groups gathered here and there to diseuss the chances of the various candi- dates for the next Presidency.

The Westorn people seemed to stick to Hendricks as the most likely candidate. Several enthusiastic gentiomen to his face spoke of HENDRICKS AS THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE. He blushed, but said nothing. He favored any man, come from what section he might, who could lead the democratic hosts to victory. Senator Blair bore his honors very meekly. Somebody sald he had captured Camp Jackson a second time, where- ‘upon he replied that this time Camp Jackson had cap- turedhim, There never was amore congenial, jolly party. The host, Sam Cox, talked to a dozen gen- tlemen at once, There was little of politics in what he sald. He seemed confident, however, of the future. “We are going to nominate the right men this time,” said Sam, “with a platform that won't fall upon them,’” “Then you will sweep the deck,” rejoined a sen- sible democrat, & The festivities were kept up till alate hour, and the company adjourned in jolly spirits, full of hope for the future, The Vote on Abolishing the Tucome Tax. Thevote in the Senate to-day abolishing the in- come tax was a pleasant surprise to those who have been laboring for its repeal, There was nothing in the vote of a party character. There weré both democrats and republicans who voted for the repeal as well as against it. It is thought the House will pass the bill by a large vote, Bill for the Appointment of Military and Naval Cadets. A bill Is now pending before Congress providing for the future appointment of cadets to the West Point, and Annapolis academies by competitive ex- aminations to be held in the Congressional districts, under the auspices of the Representatives, and will probably become a law. It is thought that the pro- posed measure, without excluding any class of the people from representation at the national schools, will greatly elevate their standards of culture and discipline, Regulating the Rank of Officers in the Navy. The Senate Committee on Naval Affairs held a meeting to-day for the purpose of considering the bil which passed the House a few days ago to regu- late rank in the navy, Although no definite action has been taken, the general discussion which took Place indicates that the committee will amend the bill considerably before reporting it to the Senate. The North Carolina Trouble. The special committee on the condition of affairs inthe Seuth examined Colonel Kirk to-day. He was commander of Holden’s militia {n the recent troubles which took place in North Carolina. His testimony related entirely to the situation in that State, It consisted for the most part of a narrative of the outrages said to have been committed by the Ku Klux. Colonel Kirk said it was impossible to enforce the law in many parts of North Carolina by clvll process, owing to the existence of a lawless element, which defies alike the federal and the State authorities. ‘ Decrease of Immigration in 1870. Omctal returns have been recelved at the Burean of Statistics from all buts few small ports, showing that the total number of passengers arrived in the Unitea States during the year ending December 31, 1870, was 413,685, of which 354,169 were immigrants, The net immigration for the corresponding pertod of 1869 Was 885,287, showing a decrease, occasioned by ihe war in Enrope, of 31,118 in 1870, Nominations. The President sent the following nominations to the Senate to-day: — George W. Blackburn, to be Collector of Internal Revenue for the Sixth district of Tennessee: Mun- son H. Treadwell, to be Collector of Internal Reve- nue forthe Second district of New York (Fourth and Sixth consolidated); Marshall B. Black, to be Co'lector of Internal Revenue for the Thirty-second district of New York; First Lieutenant John R, NeGimues, to be captain of the Ordnance Depart- ment.

In the Crimtaal Gourt to-day commenced the trial ot Representative RK, R. Butler, of Tennessee, charged with forgery. ’ Government Sale of Stamped Envelopes. , ‘The Postmaster General has addressed a commus nication to Senator Ramsey, as Chairman of the Committee on Post Ofices ana Post Roads, on the subject of petitions presented to Congress praying that the manufacture and sale of stamped enve- lopes by the government and the printing of busi- ness cards on the same be discontinued. Among the objections to the prayer he says that such a thing as counterfeiting stamped envelopes has not been known, while many of the stamps placed on envelopes become loose and are lost, thugs subjecting the letters to be sent to the Dead Letter Ofice. The cost of envelopes sold by the department, when compared with the quan- tily sold by the trade ina year, does not show any danger that the government wiil monopolize the business, It is reliably stated that one establish- ment alone in New York, owned by a firm whose name Js attached to the petition, mauufactured and sold last year one hundrea and twenty-five millions of envelopes, This fact, the Postmaster General says, is suMicient to refute the statement that the stamped envelope business, which is so largely beneficial to the people and the public service, operates a8 an invidious discrimination against the enyelope trade of the country. Government Funds for New Mexico, A deputation of Treasary clerks have just returned from Santa Fé, having superintended the transpor- tation in safety thither of half @ million dollars on public account.

Navigation was al- most entirely suspended, except the regular ferries on the two rivers, and these made their trips regardless of time. ‘The bay from Bedloe's Island to Sandy Hook was one vast field of ice of an unusually heavy nature. The Staten Island ferryboats, in consequence, were compelled to stop entirely after the four o'clock trip from the city, but the residents of the island seemed to have anticipated this, asthe majority had taken the early boats, and those left over seemed to, take the incovenience very good naturedly. We have reports of several vessels having received pilots outside, but they will be obliged to haul off shore untit the storm abates, yet we would not be surprised to hear of nu- merous disasters along the Jersey and Long Island coasts. Several steamers which were to have salled yosterday wero detained in consequence of the prevailing storm, Official reports have reached Washington relative to reck- less and unlawful acts of wreckers and others tn cases of vossels stranded or wrecked on the Florida coast, and sug- gesting additional legislation with a view of remedying the evils of which complaints are thus made. Reference is especially had to cases of vessels ou that coast in October Inst, and to the plundering and burning of Spanish and British ships lost at that time, and to the wilful conceal- ment and appropriation of proporty derelict, in violation of all law and usage on that subject. There {9 no preseat law that will meet these illegal practices. Won't Congreas take action? e “An Indignant Shipmaster” writes to a New Orleans paper & protest against the charge of the towbonts on the lower Misslasipp). These boats are owned by one company, and one dollar a ton for up towage has been asked. Now, under the plea of the high price of coal, #125 is demanded. Half the price 13 charged for down towage, and tho time up is about 26 hours. “A boat," the writer says, “almost always takes up two and usually three vessels, and, for filustration, # shtp of 1500 tons, another of 1300 and a brig of 60—tn all, 8,400 tons. For this tow the company get #3400 for one boat's services; add to this half as much more for towage down and the expense of the three vessels 1s $5100 for getting to theeity and back—an expense not approached ia any other port in this country or in Europe.” Some other port charges at New Orleans are on a similar seale, and hence it 1s not remarkable that the grain trade of the upper Mississippi does not take that route to Europe. The steamship subsidy projects now before Congress sur- pass In number and extravagance all that any previow sion of the National Legfslature ever produced or probably ever will The following are the names of the subsidy bills which pre to engage the consideration of Congress to-day :— American and European, American and Ocean, Mediterra- nean and Orientel, New York and Antwerp, New Orleans and Vera Cruz, SanFrancisco and Australia, and the Paciiic { Mail (increased subsidy for China Iue) All these are steamship projects, to ran from 10to 8) years, The total sum for subsidizing asked 1s $4,630,000 per annum, or B57,500,000 for the 20 years, The Brat two demand $1,201,000 each per annum, the former for 15 years and the other for 80, The highest amount asked by any oue of the remainder Js $780,000 a year, and the lowest $156,000, both for a term of Id years, This fs a pretty good exhibit for one session, Messrs 8 H Cottrell & Co, of Newport, RI, are engaged in making » new marine railway at their shipyard.
