GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.
Later mow EcaojpE. The Collins Steamer
R-iltic, from Liverpool the 12th instant, arriv
ed at New York, with tin ee days later news
than received by the Africa on Wednesday.
Tha news of the Baltic is briefly summed
rp. Expectation was ok tiptoe to learn the is
sue of the poace propositions made to Russia.
Jlnmors of all sorts were flying thick, hut no-
thins could be known for at least a week, the
term having been extended for Russia's deci
sion to the 18th inst. Nevertheless, Berlin
and Vienna despatches do not hesitate to as-
gcrt that advices are already in those capitaU
indicating that the Czar will make no further
concessions. " . ' ' '
Oa the other hand, It is certain that formal
conferences on the propositions are actualty
in session in St. Petersburg, and are attended
by Count Ncsmer.. The Independence Beige
publishes' what pnrports to be-the text of the
propositions: laid before Austria, and if the
document be authentic, the demands are so
stringeut that there is little hope of Russia ac
ccpting them. ; The general impression is that
Russia will neither absolutely reject nor ac
cept the Allied terms, but will send (by Count
Stikclberg) counter-proposals to Vienna. In
any case, considerable delay seems inevitable.
A large amount of by -play continues to be
carried on between Austria, Prussia, and the
smaller Germanic States. ; Denmark has pub
lished a circular, stating that she will remain
neutral, and that she has no connection with
the Swedish alliance.
There is nothing new from the Crimea. Ev
ery one believes that in the Spring hostilities
be transferred from the Crimea to Northern
Russia. Omar Tacha remains shut up in Re
dout Kale by the winter and the Russians.
The Emperor of the French again manifests an
intention of going to the war Richard. Cob
den has published his new peaco pamphlet.
From WAsarxc-roir. Jan. 2G. The Senate
is not in session to-day. In the Ilouse, Mr.
Pnan ofiered tbo following resolutions, decla
ringFirst. That no man should be elected
.Speaker who does not fully: and heartily sym
pathize with a largo-majority of the people of
the country in favor of the restoration of the
3iissonri Compromiseor who will hesitate to
exert himself for Jhe restoration of that re
striction. ; . " . -
Second. That the restriction should be res
tored as a proper vindication of the wisdom
and iatriotism, find plighted honor of the
great statesman who imposed it, and as a ne
cessary and certain means of reviving harmony
an 1 concert among the States of the Union. ,
Third. That useless and factious agitation
of the slavery question, in or out of Congress,
U unwise and unjust to every section of the
Union, but until the restriction is restored, it
is owed as a solemn duty to the past, the pres
ent and the future, steadily Sad firmly to per
sist in efforts to that end. . ;
The first resolution was rejected by ono ma
jority. The second was adopted by one major
ity, and the third rejected by three majority.'
Mr. MeaeTTam ofiered a resolution condemna
tory of the repeal of the Missouri Campromise,
which was adopted by 15 majority. Adjourned.
Fnoii the Pacific. X. Orleans, Jan. 25.
The steamship Daniel "Webster brings San
Francisco dates to the 5th inst.', having made
the trip in less than twenty days. The Star of
the West had sailed for New York with ZbO
passengers and 000,000 in gold. A severe
ihock of an earthquake occurred at San Fran
cisco on the 2d inst. The trial of Cora, charg
ed with the murder of Col. Richardson, had
commenced. The Court had overruled the
motion to change the venire. Attachments
had been issued against Lncien Herman, an
extensive money agent at San Francisco, for
nearly S 150,000.- Mr. Silsbee, the Yankee
comedian, died at San Francisco on the 22d
ult. New and very rich diggings have been
discovered, on the American river, and the
mines generally are yielding, largely.
The date's from Oregon are to Dec. 20th, up
to which time nothing had been heard from
Col: Kelly's" part y,which went to the attack
of Fort ; Walla-Walla, in the possesion of the
Indians. : The Indians in Northern California
ftill continue their depredations.
Central America. By the arrivat of the
Brig ITclen Jane at Boston from Truxsllo, we
have some interesting advices from Honduras,
which indicate that the operations of Colonel
Walker in Central America are not necessarily
confined to Nicaragua. Cahano, tho former
President of Honduras, who was driven out of
the country By Gen. Guardiola, and afterwards
joined Col. Walker, was reported on the fron
tier, having command of four hundred Amer
ican and one - thousand native troops, with the
purpose of again taking possession. It was
thouglit that he wouid'snccecd, as Gen. Guar
diola had expressed a determination not to
fight the Yankees, as they were,. in. his opin
ion, irresistable. . The leading native inhabi
tants of Omoa and Trnxillo are reported as not
opposed to Walker." " "

As Aged Paisoxeb. An Italian newspaper
states that a native of Savoy, who was con
demned at the age of 41 to the French galleys
for life, has just been liberated, at the .age of
121'.'- It is said that he has a little property in
Savoy, the interest on which has been, accum
ulating exactly 100 years. The old fellow en

I nisTsrs'isi Calami-TV. A PimiU r Flow.
en Froxoa to Death. An old friend informs
us that a neighIor of his, residing upon a cold
bleak portion of tho suburbs, has been visited
by a dreadful calamity, one most afflicting to
the parties bereft, and which made us shud
der when be, in a feeling manner, broached to
us the sid intelligence. The whole offspring
of a family eleven in number frozen, liter
ally frozen to death! It is too well known
that Wednesday night was one of the very col
dest that has transpired for many a year in this
latitude ; and that suffering was intense. The
miserable wreck of a shanty In which this
large family were harbored was scarce fit to
protect the hardiest of the brute creation.
Not a flame nor a spark of fire was beneath
the roof to cheer their countenances nor to
warm their little feet; but there they were
compelled to remain during that entire cold
and bitter night no friend knowing nor dream
ing of the intense suffering to which they were
being subject, yet it is not to be doubted that
had they been only able" to make known to
the community the precise nature of thair dis
tress, the hand of charity would have been ex
tended at least so far as to render them better
housed. But this was unfortunately not so;
and ia the morning, when a guardian of the
family looked into the miserable residence, his
feelings were deeply touched at aeeing the en
tire eleven frozen stiff in death; and he at once
censured himself for not having exercised a
better protective care ever the family. The
bereaved mother of the eleven little ones was
yet alive, and wo are informed is doing "as
woll as could be expected under the peculiar
circumstances." The fat her is a perfect brute,
a perfect hog, and has not been seen by the
mother for several months. Baltimore Repub
lican. Ravagks or Wolves in Iowa Tiro persons
Devcurtd. Owing to the extreme cold weath
er for some time past, the wolves in Pottowa
tomio County have become dangerous neigh
bors. Poultry yards and sheep folds have been
robbed to a frightful extent, and in several in
stances the hungry beasts have not been in
clined to spare the human species. About
three weeks ago a man was returning from a
prayer-meeting accompanied by bis two daugh
ters, one sixteen and the ether twenty-three
years ot age. iney were ail riding trio same
horse, when suddenly a pack of timber wolves
assailed them, and being unable to escape by
flight, they attempted to defend themselves.
But the ferocious brutes attacked the horse,
rendering him unmanageable. The oldest
daughte'r was partly thrown and partly dragged
to the ground, and instantly devoured. This
enabled the father and the other daughter to
escape, bcveral neighbors were soon muster
ed, but upon repairing to the spot nothing wa?
found but one shoe, and a very few remnants
of the unfortunate girl's clothing. A boy a-
bout thirteen years old left his father's house
to get water at a spring, which was about half a
mile distant, since which time nothing has
been seen of him. The pail was found near
tho spring, also some marks of blood and a
ock or two of hair. Several persons have
been chased by these savage monsters. Keo

A Monster Cbimxai. The English papers
record the arrest of a man named Evans on a
charge of having poisoned his wife, his brother
his friend, and thirteen other persons. His
wife, before marriage, was a ward in Chance
ry, and entitled to a large fortune, ner guar
dian resolutely opposed the match, and the
Master in Chancery also withheld his consent
for some time. Both finally yielded to the en
treaties of the young lady, and j et it is belie
ved that she was subsequently murdered by
her infamous husband, lie was a finished
gambler. .
The Clatton-Bulweb Treat. The Pres
ident communicated to the Senate in Execu
tive session, on Monday, Lord John Russell's
letter of January 19, 18G3, to Mr.. Crampton,
and which was then submitted to Mr. Everett,
Secretary of State. It declares that the Brit
ish Government intends strictly to carry out
tha Clayton-Bnhver Treaty, ami to assume no
sovereignty, directly or indirectly, in Central
America. The Senate has removed the in
junction of secresy, and the letter will bo pub
lished. . -
The Law of the Steet. Referring to the
recent case in Boston, in which the right to the
road was contested, the Providence Journal
remarks : "In crossing the street, at a regular
crossing intended for foot passengers, the road
belongs to the man on foot, and the carriage
must go at such a pace as will not endanger
him. In crossing the middle of the street wher.i
there is no paved crossing, it is different ; but
even there, the driver is bound to proceed not
only at a moderate pace,but with due caution.
Shawls not Exclusively Femisixe. A fe
male in St. Louis, was recently arrested and
fined $50 for going to a ball in masculine at
tire. The next day she hauled up' two gen
tlemen who. wore shawls in the streets, for ap
pearing in female attire. The magistrate did
not think the pantaloons and the shawls cov
ered the samo ground, and therefore dismiss
ed the case.
,
' Samuel Sly has been indicted at New Hav
en for the murder of Justus Matthews and a
"true bill" has been returned against tho pro
phetess," Widow Wakeman, a3 accessory af
ter tho fact. She says it has been revealed to
her that the case will never come to trial in
this world but has concluded not to bring the
day of Judgment on the people of New Hav
en for a short time to come. .
Saxta Anna. It is stated in the? Mexican
papers that the ex-Dictator has separated from
his wife. ' We know that he lost his teg before
St. Juan de L'lloa, but this loss "of his wife
wants confirmation. ?
A late despatch from Western Missouri says,
"The reported battle in Kansas was' greatly
exaggerated. Nothing serious ocenrrcd. No
pno was killed, and but few slightly wounded.
Deluge in the Planet Saturn. In a recent
woik, entitled "The New Theory of the Crea
tion and Delug-j," among other startling pro
dictions it is stated that it is probable the rings
which surround Saturn are composed of water,
snow or ice, which, at some future time may
descend and .deluge that planet, as ours was
deluged in the days of tho patriarch Noah."
It now appears that this event is likely to take
place a little sooner than was anticipated, for
Sir David Brewster says: "Mr. Otto Struvc
and Mr. Bond have lately studied with the
great Munich telescope; at the Observatory of
Pulkoway, the third ring of Saturn, 'which Mr.
Lassells and Mr. Bond discovered to bo fluid.
' "These astronomers are of the opinion that
this fluid ring is not of very recent formation,
and that it is not sulject to rapid change ; and
they have come to tho extradordinary conclu
sion that the : inner border of tho ring has,
since the time of Huygens, been gradually ap
proaching to the body of Saturn, and that we
may expect, sooner or later, perhaps, in some
dozen of years, to soe the rings united with
the body of the planet." '''
Hard fob tus Birds. The Woonsocket,
R. I., Patriot says that the late cold weather
has been very destructive to the birds. Great
numbers of quails, partridges, and other birds
have been found dead in the woods. Many of
the poor things were probably starved to death.

M POUT ANT TO HOUSEKEEPERS axd
FRUIT GROWERS. ARTHUR'S PAT-
ent Air-Tight Stlf-Seaung Cans and Jars, for
Preserving Fresh Fraits, &c. This invention for
which a patent has been obtained, commends it
self to the attention of Housekeepers and others,
on account of its great simplicity, and the effectu
al manner lawhieh it accomplished a very-desi-rable
and useful object
The cans and jars are constructed with a chan
nel around the mouth, nerr the top, into which
the cover fits loosely. This channel is filled with
a very adhesive cement, prepared for. the purpose
and allowed to harden. In order to seal the ves
sel hermetically," it is only ntccesary to heat the
cover sltzhlly, atul press it into ylaee. It may be
opened With as much ease as it is closed, by slight
ly warming the top. The ordinary tin cans, used
for tho same purpose for which this is intended,
cannot be closed, asis well known without the aid
of a tinnsr; aro difficult to open, and are generally
so much injured in opening as to be useless for
future service. .
By this simple contrivance, the process cf her
metical scaling is placed conveniently within the
reach of every individual; and fruit, vegetables
and butter (if properly prcparod) may be kept,
with their natural flavor unimpaired, tor an in
definite length of time. For Bale by
