On Saturday a lit. tie rain fell ; but on Monday we experienced a great and sudden change. Snow commenc ed falling early in the morning, and continued to fall in moderate quantities during the day, -and by evening the ground was covered some 6 or C inches deep. - Should the weather nod- trite within a few days, and rain a little, we .may expect a "flood;" and, as a great many rafts are ready for running, a lively time would soon be experienced along the river.

Faithful Ministers of Health. In exam ining the vessels at the various wharves we find among the curiosities of our commerce tbe brig Miranda, just in from Truxillo with a cargo of Honduras aarsaparilla for Dr. J. L Ayer & Co., of Lowell. So particular are this firm as to the articles used in compounding their various remedies, that they have this drug, like some others they consume, gather ed for them by a skilful agent of their own in the tropical regions of its growth, lie in forms us that there are many species of this plant, but two of which are really valuable in medicine ; the qualities of these are also affec ted by the time of gathering, mode of curing, etc., operations which in that region of unreli able workmen imposes a heavy labor upen him. One of the inert varieties of Sarsaparilla grows wild in our own forests, while several others, nearly worthless, abound in Central and South America. Tue intelligent agent assured us that the virtues of this drug had never been fully told, and that the reason of the low esteem in which many hold it is main ly due to the importation of such immense quantities of the worthless varieties. His ac counts of his trips to Honduras and his business excursions along the Gulf of D nice and the rivers of Montagur and Santiago and among the adjacent mountain were of intense interest. We but commend and honor his employers for faithfulness and energy with which they execute their trust a tuiuisters to the public health, and we suspect that this course is at least one of the reasons why their medicines are lie Id in such extraordinary fa vor throught the civilized world. New York City Aetcs. Enforcement of the Laws. A writer in the N. Y. Timet remarks : "During the late campaign the rallying cry, the motto and the very soul of the 'Constitutional Union party was expressed in the words, 'the Constitution the Union and the enforcement of the laws This party, now dominant at Richmond, in the State Convention, proposed to make it an indispensable condition of their adherance to tbe Union that tbe Administration shall pledge itself not to euforce the laws. I leave it to its leaders to explain the meaning of their mean- incless motto; and to tell us whether they meant all tbe laws, or only those which sre in tended to protect slavery and to catch runa ways." The rittsourgn uaseue says: we can explain it very easily. The enforcement of the laws demanded by the united voices of the -Union party and tbe Democracy meant nothing more nor less than that we should catch all tbe negroes who might run away. Such trifles as the collection of the revenues, the maintenance of courts, and the protection of the rights of tha government and individ uals, except iu the matter just alluded to, were not thougnt or or intended, naa me motto been, "the enforcement of the fugitive stave law," it would bave been more accurate and explicit, although it would not have sounded quite so well. Everybody knew at the time what the cry meant. Tbe Pittsburgh Gazette pertinently inquires : "What would be the objection if some par ties at Harriaburg would take a bint from the following: The Select Committee of the New York Assembly on tbe case of Mr. Jay Gibbons, a member from Albany county, charged with bribery, yesterday reported a resolution to tbe effect that Mr. Gibbons 'has been guilty of official misconduct, rendering him unworthy of a seat in thie House, and should tborefore be expelled.' " . Valcablk Post OfriCKS. The Augusta (Ga.) Sentinel thinks tbe determination of the Southern Congress to discontinue some oi tne little Post Offices is wise, if not carried too far. Some of them, it savs. are merely Post Offices in name. For instance, we find that for tbe year ending September 30,1859, tbe nett proceeds of each of five offices in Florida was under ten cents. Three of them received four cents eacb, and one of them three eents. Certainly these offices could bo lopped off Without' any great barm. ' A Case of Habdsbip. The New York Trib- of Friday last, ; contains a statement of S1b?SSt by the authorities of Charleston, which will arouse the indignation of every humane tier- son in the community. The statement of the lady is, that she left New York early in De ceuiber, 1859, for Charleston. Last Septem ber, it being ascertained that she entertained feelings adverse to slavery, she was arrested by a member of the "Vigilant Police," and thrust into a miserable cell, until it should please the Mayor to give her a hearing. At ter being kept there for a whole night and nMAiii,. nu i part of the next day, in company with beggars and diseased criminals of all kinds, tbe Mayor gave her a bearing. Her offence was "Abo litionism," tbe staple of all South Carolina's grievances. No one appeared against the la dy, and the Mayor conducted tbe case with out the formality of a legal charge. He ad mitted her peaceable, quiet and inoffensive disposition, and spoke of her good character, one toid her that, being an Abolitionist, sue should give bail in three hundred dollars for ber good behavior until she left tbe city, or she must go to jail. She refused to give bail, and was immediately sent to a cold and gloomy jail, to be the companion of criminals acd murderers. In vain did she protest her inno Cfence of any crime; in vain did she strive to convince them that she had not even convers ed with slaves on the subject with which she stood charged, but like a culprit she was ta ken through the crowded streets to jail, to be punished slie knew not when or how. After being incarcerated for a long time, all tbe while being subjected to taunt and insult of all kinds, she wrote to Mayor Wood, detailing her grievances, and asking for that protec tion which, as a native New Yorker, she had a rrght to claim ; but her letter was answered by "Farnando" in a vein of biting sarcasm, all tending to the impression that the lady was being served right at Charleston. Release came at last, however, and the Mayor of Charleston very kindly paid Mrs. Bottsford's passage to New York, as a deck passenger, in connection with sixty rough, boorish laboring men, who bad gone thither in search of work, but who were not permitted to land on penalty of having their throats cut by the metciful minute men of Charleston. During the pro gress of these outrages upon this unoffending female, she had been repeatedly told that had she been of the other sex, she would bave been tarred and feathered, or hung to the nearest tree. All bail, South Carolina, tbe land of chivalry and honor ! Repose oct of the Union. The Memphis Avalanche, a famous secession paper contains the following, paragraph in a recent issue : "Seven of the Southern States are at peace. They bave found that repose out of tbe Union which bas been denied them in the Union. The Southern States that still cling to the Abolition Confederacy, after being teazed, tormented and insulted for a few months, will enlist under the same banner." In reply to the above the Memphis Bulletin says: "it making tbe outh one vast camp, where thousands of citizens are diverted away from their peaceful pursuits into tbe occupa tion of tho soldier: if to iuauguraio a state of things in which 'wars and rumors of wars continually keep tbe public mind up to fever beat of excitement if to derange and inter rupt the natural flow of trade and commerce, and live continually in tho apprehension that it may be destroyed by tbe precipitation of a bloody civil war; if to me u unnecessary revolution, in the prosecution of which the bold, reckless and selfish are likely to bear more sway than the peaceful, the considerate and the patriotic ; in which the tribunals of reason and Justice may be overthrown, to give pi ace to tbe arbitrament of the sword if these things be 'repose,' then bave tbe seceded States found it. It is, however, such repose as may be found upon tho thin crust of a slum bering volcano, with the hearings of its un rest muttering audibly beneath it. God for bid that Tennessee and tbe other Border States should ever seek such repose. Our neighbor is a sad prophet of evil, and would fain per suade us that we are to be 'teased, tortured and insulted,' by continuing in the Union.

It is stated that the secretaries of the various departments at Washington have determined to equalize the number of office-holders in the depart ments from the different States, as some bave a much larger number in proportion, than others. Virginia has one hundred and seven ty clerks in tbe departments, while in reality her proportion is but seventy-live ; conse quently, it is necessary for the public good to razee the federal fodder stack of tbe r . f .

Another bowl from Mason may be looked for. A Caud to thb Suffering. The Rev. William Cosgrove, while laboring as a miss lonary in J apan, was cured of Consumption, when all other means bad tailed, by a recipe obtained from a learned physioi&n residing in the great city of Jeddo. This recipe has cured great numbers who were suf- ering from Consumption, Bronchitis, Sora Throat, Coughs and Colds, and the debility and nervous depression caused by these disorders. Desirous of benefitting others, I will send this recipe, which I bave brought home with me, to all who need it, free of charge. Address Rev. Wm. Cosgrove, Feb.27-3m 438 Fulton A venue, Brooklyn, N.Y.
