Friday evening, at 4 o'clock, the thermometer stood at 37 at 4J, the thermometer being at 'M a pail of water standing by the cistern was observed to be frozen over, except a small place in the centre the ice of an inch thick. The thermometer, Friday night, at 8 P. stood at 31 deg.

Yesterday morning (Saturday), at o'clock, it was down to 27 and the ice of an inch thiek. EF The New York World, speculating on Gen. Grant's Cabinet, includes ex Gov, David Tod among the candidates for the Treasury Department, but doubts whether the Senate would confirm him if nominated The doubt is very reasonable. Gov. Tod has been dead more than a month.

Whatever his merits as Secretary of the Treasury might be, the Senate is not likely, from the dearth of candidates, to send into another world for him. Archdiocese of Snv Orleans. The several bishops who were in attendance here last week at the Provincial Council have all returned to their respective dioceses. The exiled Itamirez, of Tamaulipas, is now in our city, the gnest of Thomas Lay ton, Esq. This venerable prelate, one of the most eminent in the Mexican church, is, we believe, like President Juarez, of the native Mexican race.

The Morning Star, official organ, reminds the faithful that this being the third week of Advent, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday are Ember days, bringing with them the usual obligations of fasting and absti nence. It is also stated the Christmas Novena begins on Wednesday next, 10th inst. We had the pleasure of receiving a call from Mr. Siller, the energetic Western grain dealer, who has vhited our city to see how. wheat would run out of it across the Atlantic and to the Northern sea board, lie has looked at the elevator and finds it complete and ready.

He has inspected our shipping and accommodations for more. He now goes back to remove, the valves and to let the wheat slide down tho inclined plane and glide out at its natural port of exit, rather than attempt to carry it over the mountains and to have it freeze up in efforts to reach the Northern board direct. The open water way the right way. iy We take great pleasure in recommending to the public, and especially to those who may desire to engage the services of a skillful, prompt, and experienced car i penter and builder, Mr. C.

W. Grandjean, No. Magazine Btreet, near Julia. It too frequently happens that a workman, in the endeavor to master many trades, becomes a mere fmatterer as it werej or to use a more expressive phrase, a jack at all trades and good at none." Mr. Grandjean is not of that class.

1 57 strict attention to the trade which he determined to follow, he has made himself a thorough master of it in all its various branches and many years of experience has achieved an enviable reputation. We speak by the card when we say that he is not only a skillful and thorough mechanic and builder but conscientious and moderate in his charges, and prompt in all his business engagements. ksf It affords ns ireat pleasure to be able to testify to the surgical. kill of our fellow townsman, Dr. Wm.

C. Nichols, as exhibited by an operation recently performed upon a yoath, Henry Powers, atUched to the Pica ynne office. A large tnmor had formed npon the boy's right temple, which was gradually increasing, and must finally have proved fatal had it not been successfully removed by the doctor. The operation, owing to the proximity of the tumor to the eye, repaired the utmost care and nicety, and consumed a'jout an hour; the patient being meantime nuder the influence of chloroform. The youth ia two weeks had entirely recovered, and has for eome days been attending to his regular duties.

He is naturally very grateful to the doctor for the service so skillfully and kindly rendered, and we are pleased to be the medium of his acknowledgments for the gteat relief obtaineL TTeseman'a cod liver o'l ia pronounced the pnrcet aud sweetest" known 1 1 the trade.

The great length of the report of the Secretary of the Treasury prevents its re production in full, and the abstracts which hare been current are very defective. We condense from it the statements with which it is important that the public mind should be made familiar. On the main topics of debt, income and expenditure, the Secretary has more hopeful views than have been generally entertained. These are based, however, on reforms in legislation and reforms in administration, in respect to which, judging from the recent past, we fear that no great confidence is to be felt. Among the reasons for doubt is, too, that there will be a variety of opinions among honest men on the value of some of his suggestions.

For the present we will confine ourselves to the facts of his report. He maintains that the public debt has been, in a state of continued and large diminution since the close of the war in April, 1c(m. His rule of calculation is, to add to the amount of ascertained and ad justed debt at that period the amount of debt ascertained since and adjusted as due at tLat date, and to deduct from it the amount now due and adjusted. The difference constitutes tho actual amount by which the debt is less now, through the Treasury operations, than it was then. From this computation tho following re result follows Del't, April 1, Nov.

Redaction in 3 yra. 7 In this is included for increase of debt, the bonds advanced to tho Pacific Kail roads, and the purchase money for Alaska, together l.tKK). The reduction of indebtedness growing out of the war would, but for these items, have been The reduction of the general indebtedness was, as stated, on the 1st November past. The adjusted debt does not take into consideration the prospective number of increased payments, by reason of outstaiid ing demands for losses, damages, injuries and restitutions for acts during the war. Of theee a very large amount is awaiting legislative and judicial decisions.

On the other hand the great expenditures which fell upon tire last thre.e years for paying otf the army and for bounties have nearly ceased, and a large consequent deduction in the expenditures may bo looked for in the coming years. The summary of the Secretary's figures as to past expenditures is, that the average annual expenditures of the Government for all purposes, since the close of the war, has been IK Of this the average annual payment, for current ex. penees and interest, has been $'M 'i. '1 hie last is the basis on which he proposes his measures of reform in administration, and provisions for the debt payment. Preliminary tu any acts on that head, the Secretary urges that Congress make an explicit declaration, that the bonds of the United States intended to be negotiated abroad, as well as at home, are to be the time of payment arrives, in that currency which is alone recognized as money iu the dealings of nation with nation." In other words, he wants a new aud distinct pledge which cannot be gainsaid, that all the bonds of the I 'cited States outstanding shall be pftid in gold, whenever paid, at the option of the Government, or at th tiuie when on the contract.

His financial plan is to secure an ann'tui reduction of the debt to tho amount cf To facilitate tlii he wants authority to issue sC ix), 00(1 in bonds at thirty years, five per cent, interest in coin, except on the first 0 to be issued, so tht shall be redeemable annually, fir ten successive years; aud, in addition, such further amount of bonds as may be necessary to convert the JO 's into per cent. He is careful to say that he thinks his own previous suggestions preferable of six per cent bonds at twenty years, with a deduction of one per cent, in lieu ot all taxation but forbears repeating it, against the ascertained disapproval ot Congress. For the administration of Government during the interval, the Secretary estimates for a revenue of ana an ex penditure of being the calculated surplus of to bo accomplished after the adjustment of the public debt, on a basis of five per cent, average interest. The following are his proposed items For civil service! 10,000,000 War Department Navy JJO.OOO.OOil Pennons and Indiana Inttreat on debt 15,000,000 .0,000,000 Keceipte from customs and iuter Dal revenue 300,000,000 This is a pleasant looking exhibit to be realized by his successer in office who is to come in in three or four months. It ia moreover, to be made effective by the adoption of certain legislative measures, the occurrence of certain events, and the reform of practices and morals in administration, for which it is not likely that Mr.

McCul loch would look with, such a complacent frame of mind, if be were to wait in office mid abide the result, as affecting his own official action. For the proportion to be derived from customs ho wants legislation on thetaritf, which abate its high protective feutures, and make, as nearly as possible, a simple revenue taritf. TLe rates of duty must be laid so as to encourage imports and enlarge commerce: which involves a sar rer.dt of which a great part of the country, which is most powerful in legislation, will bo very slow to allow. The Secretary recognizes the force of this influence by declining to recommend the restoration of the taxes which were taken off so largely last jear for the benefit of the mannfacfurers. TLe repeal was imprudent greatiy detrimental totheTreabury; but he bhs no confidence that the restoration would stand against eo great an influence He objects also to the increase of the tax on spirits, on the ground that thero is a irrrooTa'ky which will not allow the excise law to be fairly executed.

Between Lis hopelessness about the tariff, and bis helplessness about the whiskey tax. the Secretary falls back on only one positive recommendation for the improve. inent of the system of internal revenue, which is, an increased and uniform tax on ales. All these matters require legislation by Congress; and therefore until Congress takes them up, and developes in some its own views, whether of concurrence or dissent, thy are to stand as the Secretary's idea of what he thinks ought to be and might bo, all other circumstances concurring, if Congress could be induced to think with him. Our read, ers, who may have seen how low an opinion Mr.

McCulloch evidently has of the public morality of the times, may judge as well as we of the probabilities of any such adjustment. Ax Oli Time The Washington Intelligencar chronicles the death in that city, on the id of James M. Meliae, at the age of years. Mr. McRae was well known by all the old inhabitants of Mobile and New Orleans, a third of a century ago, as a very active politician, and familiar in the newspaper cilices as editor, contributor and correspondent.

He lived first in Mobile, and thence came here, and was partner, or in some way interested, in the Tropic, established as the organ of the Whig party about twenty six years aeo. He is associated in our memory with an amusing political anecdote. The tariff was the Whig doctrine, and McKao was an ardent tariffito The Tropic had just brought into its editorial staff a writer who had written some amusing sketches for papers, aud was thought to be quite an acquisition. McKae getting an early copy of Kob't J. Walker's free trade report, carried it into the editorial sanctum and laid it before the new editor, whom we shall designate as Mr.

T. for a slashing review in the next morning's paper. It was a flneopportunity, and Mac expected something telling. Coming in after an hour or two to soe what progress iiad been made, he fonud Mr. T.

pouring lover the uncut leaves, with not a line of the review yet written. "What now," said be, "how are you getting on Oh, I'll do well enough when I get into it; but tell me, Mac, what 1 ad ruluMi' i(in' Mac's astouishment may be imegined, but hu did not lose his mesence of mind. He stepped to the Idoor. called the office boy to come in and tell Air T. what aJ rulorrm meant, and quitted the room with insufferable disgust.

In after years, when he had got over tho shock to his political feelings, he used to tell iLe story wiih great relish. We think it was on the election of Gen Taylor, in 1 lr. that ho went to Washington City, in the neighborhood of which he was born, in 1 I. He has resided there ever since, supporting himself by agencies and by his pen, which has been always active in political matters, principally as correspondent for various public journals. He is spoken of warmly in the Intelligencer, as a man to make and keep friends which corresponds with the estimate held of him here, as a man of ardent feelings, much activity and generous and amiable qualities.

la. When the pore medicinal restorative, now ss widely known as WOLFE 8 SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS waainrroduced into the world, under the Indorsement of four Uiouaand leading members of the medical profession, some twenty years ago, its pre prietor was well aware 4hat it could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new and osefai preparations. He therefor endeavored to Invest with strongest possible safeguard against ooan. terfeiters, and to render all attempts to pirate lt dlffloult and dangerous. It was submitted to dia tingniahed chemint for analysis, and pronounced by them tho purest spirit over manufactured.

Its purity and properties having been thus asoer. certained, samples of the article were forwarded to ten thousand physicians, Including all the lead, ing practioners in the United States, for purposes of experiment. A ciiculur, requesting a triarot the preparation and a report of the result, acoio panied each specimen. Four thousand of the moa eminent medical men In the Union promptly re. sponded.

Their opinions of the article were unanimously favorable. 8uch a preparation, they said, bad long been wanted by the profession, as no reliance could he placed on the ordinary liquors commerce, all of which were more or lessadal terated. and therefore unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar excellence and strongtn ot the oil or juniper, which formed one of the principal Ingre dienta of the Schnapps, together with an aa alloyed character of the alcoholic element, give it, in the estimation of the faculty, a marked sspe riorlty over every other dilTueive stimulant a diuretic, tonic and restorative. These satisfactory credentials from profea na it, en of tho highest rank were published in a coMlbUsetl lot and with each bottle ot i lie hebnapps, as one oCjtho guaraaUMta ot its genuineness.

Other precautioua agaUist, fraud weie alao adopted; a palent vas obtained for the aitic.o, the lauel was copyrighted, a facsimile of the jnoprietor's autograph signature was attached to eaoh laltel and cover, his' name and that ot the preparation were embossed on tbe bottles, and the) coi ka were with his piivateseaL No ant I cle had ever been sold in this country under tho name of Schnapps prior to tbe introduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851 and the label was deposited, as his trade mark, ia tho United States District Court for the Southern District ol New Yoik during that year. It might be supposed by persons unarquainto with the daring character of the pirates whopray upon the reputation of honorable merchants i vending deleterious trash under their name, tha. the protection so carefully thrown around the hcknapps woald have precluded tbe Introductions and sale of counterfeits. They seem, however, only to have stimulated the rapacity of impostors. TLe trade mark of the proprietor has been stolen the indorsement whica his Schiedam Aromatio Schnapps alone received from tbe medical profea siou has been claimed by mendacious humbugs; his labels and bottles have been imitated, hi Mvertisementa paraphrased, his circulars copied, aid worse than ail, dishonorable retailers, atv disponing of the genuine con tenia of his bottlou, have tilled, them up with common gin, the moos deeterious of all liquors, aud thus made his name, and brand a cover for poison.

The public, the medical profession and the sick, for whom the Kohiedam Aromatic Schnapps Is prescribed as a remedy, are equally interested with the proprietor in the detection and suppression of these nefarions practices Tho genuins article, manufactured at the establishment of tbe undersigned, in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from a barley ot tbe finest quality, and flavored with an etteiitial extract of the berry of Ue Italian juniper ot unequaled purity. By a process unknown In the pteparatiou of any other liquor, it is fraad from every acrimonious und corrosive element Complaints have been received from theieslial, phjsiciaus and families in the Southern the sale of cheap imitations of the Schiedam Aromatic schnapps in those markets and travelers, ho aie in the habit of using It as an antidote to the banetul influence oi unwholesome river water, tea'ity that cheap gin, put up in Schiedam bottles, is frequently paimed otr upon the unwary. Th agents of the undersigned have been' requested to institute inquiries on the subject, and to forward to him the names of such parties as they may aa certain to be engaged In the atrooious system of deception. Ia conclusion, toe undersigned would say that he has produced, from under tue hands of the most distinguished men of scieoee In America, (roots unanswerable of the purity and medicinal excellence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; tbat he has expended many thonsand dollars la sui rounding it with guaranties and safeguards which be oesigned should protect the publio and himself against fraudulent imitations that he has shown it te be the only liquor in the world that can be uniformly depended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, com pariton aud experiment in all its forms; and from, every ordeal the prearation which bears his name, seal, and trade mark, has come otf triumphant. He therefore feels it a duty be owes to his follow! citizens generally, to the medical profession ana the sick, to denounce and expose the charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identity, and he calls upon the press and the public to aid hint In Lis eflorts to remedy ao great an evil, Tbe following letters and certificates from tho lcaomg phynicians and chemists of this city wilt prove to the reader tbat all goods sold by the na del signed are all they are represented to be.

Udolpho Wolfe, Present: Dear Sir I have made a chemical examination oi a mm pie of your Schiedam Schnapps, with the intent ol determining if any foreign or injurious substance had been added to the simple distihed spirits.

Tbe examination has resulted in the conclusion that the sample contained no poisonous or haria ul admixture. I have been' unable to discover any trace of the deleterious substances which an employed in the adulteration of liquors. Iwonld not hesitate to use myself or to recommend to others, for medicinal purposes, the Schiedam Schi.appa as an excellent and unobjectionable) variety ol gin.

F. MAYBE, Chemist. NEW YORK, Tuesday, May Udolpho Wolfe.

Dear Mr The want of pure wines and liqnors for medicinal purposes has been Icug felt by ilie pro feaBiou, and thousands of fives have heen saori. bcd by the use of adulterated articles. Delirium tremens and other diseases of the brain aud. nerves, so rife in this country, are very rare in Kuiope, owiLg, in a great degree, to the diifer endk in the puntv of the sold. lit have tested the several articles imported and sold iby vou, including your Gin, which vou sell under the name of Aroinat.o Schiedam Schnapps, which we consider justly entitled to the high reputation it has acquired in this country and tiom your long experience aa a iaa porter, jour Bottled Vt ines aud Liquors should niet with the same demand.

We would recommend yon to appoint some of the respectable apothecaries in diilcreut parts of theciivas agenta for thn sale of your Brandies and VV tries, where the profession can obtain the same ten needed for medicinal purposes.
