    THE LATE STOBJL—The storm which pro
Walled on Friday night and during the better (or
worse) portion of Saturday, although drearier and
-dhenaller then. any other storm that has vatted
11362, did leas in Ow way of damage than reason
.able people bed expected.
Between ten and eleven o'clock on Friday night,
a gale struok the ship Wyoraing, lying at Walnut
..ntreet wharf, with considerable violence; where
upon her stern cable parted, and she swung around
with suspicious intentions. Fortunately, however,

•
' In the Twentyfourth ward the wind was equally
• demonstrative. A - number of signs, some of them
rather heavy, were torn from their fastenings, and
•sarrled around promiscuously for a while.
-In the Delaware, the tide rose to an unwonted
:height, as though swelling with indignation at the
`turn of mUnioipal affairs, but nothing serious came
:of it. In the'Scbuylkill, the water rose to within
:st foot of the wharf-tops; more then this, it bare on
'its turgid bosom countless salmi of ice, just of eon.
tvenient size for handling. So, at several points on
:the weal aide of the river, ice-slides wore let down
'into the water, and crowds of men, all mailed up,
;gathered the floating cakes with hooka, gleaning a
Tith -harvest. We saw several cart•loads of the
w redeemed" ice piled up on several of the wharves
tbelow the Wire Bridge.
FIRE AND ACCIDENTS.—About a quarter of
,31 o'clock on Saturday evening, a fire occurred on
the south side of Willow street, above Thirteenth,
in the three-story store building known as the
Tl'eg_g's Run Steam Works, owned by estate of Peter
A. Browne, deceased. Thebuilding was partially co
.impied by Thomas Schofield, carder and gamier of
wool and shoddy, and who was engaged in prepar
ing yarn for army kerseys. One room was also cc
.eupied by Joseph Bailey, manufacturer of fancy
work tables. A one-story frame attachment was no
-onpied by .1. P. Reed, turner, engaged in making
tent buttons, slips, and flag poles.
The flames originated accidentally in the drying-
TOM; extending to the third story of the smith
„portion of the building, and doing considerable
damage. The loss to the-building and fixed ma
ohinery is about $1,500, which is fully a overed by
- insurance in the State of Pennsylvania Company.
Mr. Bailey's loss is $4OO, with no Insurance. Tic
loss of Mr. Reed, principally by water, will reach
about $5OO, fully insured in the Royal. The ma
,ehinery belonging to Mr. Schofield was damaged to
the amount of $3OO, which is insured fully in the
same Company. The firemen were soon on the spot,
and the dames speedily extinguished.
O. the evening of the 19th of October, 1860, this
lading and contents were damaged by fire to the
amount of $20,000. In the year 1851, two small
tees 'occurred in the building—one originating in
the shaving hole near the, femme, and the other in
the drying room. About ten days since, a small
dire also occurred in the drying room.
While the Hope Steam Engine Company was pro
,ceeding to the fire, when turning the corner at
, Sixth and Pine streets, the wood-cart accidentally
.came into collision with the steamer of the South
wark Hose Company. The wood-cart of the Ilotick
was turned completely over, with the engineer tin
der. He was dragged a short distance under the
cart, and was badly injured.
The tongue of the William Penn Hose was also
_Slacken while proceeding to the fire.
BEPETTTION OF A VAN COTT SWINDLE.—A.
day or two since, a man dressed in the garb of a
soldier called at the residence of Mr. Howarth, in
the tautens part of the First ward, some distance
below the navy yard, and stated that a son of his
{Mr. H.) belonging to Baxter's Fire Zouaves was
Trilled In battle with fifteen others; and their bodies
'would be at the Baltimore depot that night or next
'morning. The story gained currency, and many
,persona were thrown into the most intense excite
ment and sorrow. The fellow who put this report
- Into circulation said that be was deputed to see
that the bodies of his slain comrades ware properly
delivered to the relatives All he bad to pay was
only two dollars, as freight on each body. This
-sum was handed to him by Mr. Howarth, and the
swindler agreed to meet Mr. H. at the depot, to
'hand the body over to him. He has not since been
'seen.
AeornEscrar, FIRE.—On Saturday morning,
libout 5 o'clock, .a fire occurred in the building at
1ie..^403 north Front street, owned by Mr Samuel
Stevenson, and occupied as a tenant house by
several families. The Ant floor on the front was
occupied as a shop by an old woman, named Mary
• Ann Reed. The flames originated in this apart
ment, from a spark from a candle in the hands of
a little grandson of Mrs. Reed, who bad been sent
by her into the shop to obtain some medicine. The
boy was not aware he had set fire to the place,
and
the flames were not discovered until about an hour
afterwards, by the family who occupied the second
story. This family were nearly suffocated by the
dense smoke, and made a narrow escape with their
'lives. The shop, with all its contents, was entirely
/destroyed. Mrs. Reed's loss is about 550, upon
wbioh there is no insurance.
.
WANTED A GUABDIA.II.—A lad giving the
name of Levy Carroll, aged about sixteen years,
called upon ex-blarshat John 8. Keyser last week
and asked him to become hie guardian as he wished
to join the Union army. Mr. Keyser questioned
the lad as to where be came from, and the
youngater, who was dressed in reddish lihsey
woolsey jacket and trowsers, said that he had
neither father nor mother ; that ho lived in Monroe
county; Pennsylvania, and desired to enter the
army, but could not do so unless he had a guardian.
Dir. Keyser toolitthe lad before Judge Allison, and,
after a brief examination, the proper document was
drawn up by his honor, and the ox.marshal at once
found himself the legalrepresentative of the youth.
Therearsbal took him home, and will treat him as
Lie own child. In the meantime, it is probable that
he will make further inquiry respecting the pre
vious character, position, and career of the young
stranger. If all is right, the army will speedily
have the addition of a member who can handle a
rifle, it is said, with extraotdinary precision.
TEE NEW POST OFFICE AND COURT HOUSE.
—The following bill was reported last week by the
Senate Committee on Post Offices in relation to the
Government property Immediately west of the
Custom House :
"A bill to repair and complete the Post Office
and Court louse an Philadplpiva.
"That the Postmaster General be, and is hereby,
iautborized and empowered to carry into effect the
provisions heretofore made by law for refitting and
preparing, in the city of Philadelphia, the building
now owned by the United States on Chestnut street,
-for the use of a Post Office, and the holding of the
- United States Court in said city : Provided, never
4tkeless, that the whole expense of said alteration
and improvement shall not exceed in cost the un
expended balance heretofore appropriated by him
for that purpose."
This act repeals the former ono, which appointed
*commission, consisting of the Postmaster General,
Attorney General, and Secretary of the Treasury,
to superintend the alterations, and places the entire
control of the subject in the bands of the Postmas
ter 'General. The bill was reported to the Senate
'toy Mr. Collamer.
THE BIRTHDAY OF SCOTIA'S BARD.—The
103 d anniversary of the birth of 'Robert Burns, the
immortal poet of Scotland, was celebrated on Sa
turday evening, by the Burns Association, at the

Alkaat aItaART OF All OLD MILITARY ODaLtn-
ZATIOIL—The Philadelphia Grape organization
.celebrated its twenty-ninth anniversary at the
house of Lieutenant Clark, on last Friday evening,
There are usually forty-five or fifty persons present
upon similar occasions, but at the recent celebra

Two others were present at the anniversary, being
on furlough, and out of the remaining fifteen, a

anniversary enjoyed the occasion with toasts, songs,
he., and many anecdotes were narrated of the
last campaign.

DEATH OF A PROMO* YOLTHO MAN.-0/1
Friday evening, Henry Clay West, aged twenty
years, eon of George F. West, residing at the cor
ner of Third and Christian streets, died suddenly.
He was walking across the street, near Third and
Carpenter, when he felt something arise in his
throat. There was no pain accompanying it. He
.coughed up a large quantity of blood. Several
persons went to his assistance, and he died shortly
after reaching his home. He was an estimable
young man, of much promise. Nearly all Mr.
West's children have died just about the time of
their maturity. In this, his last sudden bereave
ment, he has the sympathy of a wide-spread circle
of friends.
Salting the Streets.
EDITOR OF PnEss : As the question in reference
to salting the streets is the subject of much discus
sion, I would respectfully suggest whether mach
of the complaint in regard to it might not be recce
died by the railroad companies having an opening
under the rails at each of the crossings, and keep
ing them open, so as to have a free passage for the
slush, without so much inconvenience to foot pas
sengers. It does not seem to me that it would bo
asking too mush to require this of them, and that
they should have some ono go over their respective
roads, whose duty it should be to keep the crossings
free, either in this or some other manner.

The money market is easy and favors speculation,
though any business paper not of the best-known and ap
proved names, is very difficult to sell.
It is expected that several others of 4 the city banks will
issue small notes this week. Those of the Manufac
turers' and Mechanics', Penn Township, and Girard
Banks meet with great favor, as specimens of art. It is
desirable that a general issue of small bills by our own
banks should be made at once, to prevent a deluge of the
miserable shinplasters from other States, which has
always heretofore followed upon • suspension of specie
payments. •

We understendthe Mine Hill and Schuylkill Haven
Railroad Company propose shortening their road
about three and a half miles from the Mahanoy or Ash
land Begin, by the cdoptlon of a self-noting inclined
plane on this side of lb) Broad Mountain, by which the
descending loaded coal care will draw the empty ones up.
This will obviate the use of the most expensive portion
of their road for heavy transportation, and will con
siderably teems the crst of transportation. The pro
posed improvement, we learn, will cost about $40,000.

NOTICE TO CONSIIMPTITES.—Owing to the
bean , storm on the Sound on Friday night, it was Im
possiblo for Dr. Schenck to got home from Boston to see
patients on Saturday, and thereby disappointed a great
many.
lie will be at his office Mo. 39 North Sixth street, all
day to-day, (Monday, Jan. 2i,) and will give advice, or
examine lungs with hie Hemp!remoter, free of charge.
Persons coming from a distance on Saturday and dis
appointed. will be examined free with the Bespirometer
at any other time they may call.
FINE TEAS AND COFFEE AT FAIR PRICES.—
Our own experience is that the choicest Teas and Coffees
for the price can be bought at Mr. C. U. Mattson's, dealer
in flue Groceries, Arch and Tenth streets. His prime
Old Government Java Coffee and delicious Oolong and
other Tens are very superior,
TIIE REDUCTION OF SALAIIIES.—AffiIy Offi
cers objecting to Sherman's bill reducing salaries aro
requesting Congress to tax them to the full amount of
the reduction, and more too, but beg that the laws regu
lating their Par be not again disturbed. The salaries of
all officers, both in the employ of the Government and
of private institutions, are being cut down. Groat re
ductions have also recently taken place In tho price of
all articles of trade, dc., among which we notice the un
precedented low figures at which the elegant styles of
garments are manufactured at the Mammoth Clothing
Emporium of Granville Stokes,No. 600 Chestnut street,
(one door above Harnden's Express Offload are being
disposed of.
AMERICAN OYSTERS IN FRANCE.—A FreIICII
paper has the following: 6, 111. Caste has succeeded in
transporting to Havre, from Baltimore and other places
in North America, and acclimating two new species of
oyster, of a very delicious hind. The same attempt is to
be made to other ports of France. Tho Americans excel
in other matters besides oysters. They possess, In Phila
delphia, at Nos. SOS and 005 Chestnut street, above
Sixth; the Brown Stone Clothing nail• of Bockhlll
Wilson, where the most elegant garments for soldiers and
civilians to be found in the world are manufactured,"

PROVIDENCE AND PRIVATEERS.—n is wall
knouts that at Nassau, New Providence, "rebel pri
vateers are given even• facility to coal and refit, tshilo
not as much as a Union gunboat in admitted inside the
harbor." With reference to this, we have always on
deretood that pirates trust greatly in a supposed Provi
dence that watches over them. Now Providence must
be that particular Providence, we suspect; at least we
hardly think that Old Providence has any favorable in
tentions towards rebel privateers. One providential
thing for the South was, flat Stokes's "One Price"
Clothing Store, under the "Continental," sold only for
cash, thus preventing any indebtedness to that house to
add to the weight that will ultimately ss break the camel's
hack."
