Philadelphia Correspondence. c
Philadelphia, Ff.b. 10th 1855. p
The oldest inhabi.ant is rucking his s
brains to no purpose to find a parallel for n
the intensely cold weather we are having
1 here. The climate of the Arctic regions n
" has cast its icy mantle over us and ther- j,
! mometors range from six to ten degrees (|
' above to three degrees below zero accor- ^
ding to the looalty in which they are plac- u
! ed. Several intoxicated men who hare Si
fallen down during the night in thestieets c
have slept the sleep that knows no waking 0
and thousands of poor families are shiver- ri
I ing with cohl by gloomy firesides which p
they have not the ..icans to supply with a \
sufficiency of fuel. The ice on the Scbuyl- c
' kill has become very thick, and even the (\
' J Delaware is completely frozen over and e
has been crossed on foot at several points. u
The ferry boats, which convey the New jj
York passengers from Camden, in attempting
to cross the river havo frozen
fast and l?oen unable either to continue ^
their journey or return to their starting
point. Despite the intensely cold weather
a considerable amount of snow has fall- j
en?(juiie enougu w) maxo loieraoty goo?l
sleighing?but it has drifted very much. ^
. The sufferings of the poor have of course
been greatly intansified by this extreme
, cold, but the spirit of benev. lence is ac- c
. lively at work in their bc'iidf. Twenty j,
five hundred dollars were collected for t
them the other day. $1500 of which was 8
from individuals who contributed $o00 j
. each. But for the many deceptions which c
_ ! the artful practice to obtain undeserved J
aid in many cases unnecessary assistance, t
the contributions to the charity fund would \
have been tnticli larger,but as it is, a vast j
amount bus been done bv our various t
1 charitable societies promptly seconded i
, by the citizens generally. The ladies are (
j busily at work making up clothing and i
v administering in a thousand ways to the
0 ; wants of the indigent. ?
e Tlic dreadful scenes of poverty which 1
some of the gentlemen on the committee, ?
0 which is collecting subscriptions for the t
i. relief of the poor, have witnessed, exceed- I
es belief. They stale in their appeal to '
the public for further aid, that we could 4
2 enumerate hundreds of instances i i which I
ie ; families, who had thought it impossible t
g that they should ever como to want, have |
is been forced to pawn garments, and arti- <
tr cle after article, of their furniture, until '
the very clothes that covered their naked- i
neas, and the bed upon which they have
y lain, have been parted with, and grim |
r want and biting cold were their hourly I
companion#. Weoould go furthor. We t
r could tell you of those?onr own citirens ?

Some of our police officers recently arcsted
a man, named John Manges in
lontour county. He is said to bu the
lost extensive manufacturer of counterfit
money in the country. A large nlount

Judge Kelly in charging the (5rand 1

londay morning, was very severe upon
ic volunteer firemen. lie said that the
ouses in which the apparatus of each
>mpany is kept, with a few exception?,
fitted up with berths and used as a i
million brothel and fortification, where I
ice and outrage hold their revels. It j
as time that this greatest of evils was
rresied. The Judge is certainly nnstakl,
and if he is ever a candidate for office,
ime five thousand firemen will show him
icir appreciation of his veracity.
The controversy in relation to the offers
of the Second llrigade has boon fi-1

HAELESrON CORRESPONDENCE.
Charleston, Feb. 17, 1855.
fr. Editor:?
Race week is passed with all its varie- I
es of sports and fun, the iron of racing
nd gaming may again be called cold, j
nd (lie many brandies of professional '
haracters, together with the moro opu nt
gentlemen of pleasure may be said j
5 have retired to their respective quart* r*, i
Lime with the smiles of fortune beaming !
rightly upon their countenances, while j
thers, no doubt, wear a cast of despair,
tut ill luck must befall one portion of
hose that attend the coun of chance. It {
res highly amusing to be stationed in
Cing-strcel from 10 to 4 o'clock in the
lay, where could be seen the immense
uultitude of aristocracy, as well as deuocraoy,
including both sexes of white
nd black, thronging to the renowned
'Washington Course." Vehicles of all
lasses, not excepting carts and drays,
?ere in good demand, and the owners of
uch property may be said to have reap- '
>d a harvest during race week. Tire ony
instance that marred the event w as an
dtercalion that occurred Ixstweon Arthur
yonuer and A. Tbompeon, both from Haliinore,

Society, with its devoted class of r6sideut i
amateurs, also contribute to the amuse- <
ments of the week. On tlio whole, our's '
is a musical community, which is a good [
taste, for, as Dr. Martin Luther said, j
"Music sets tlio devil to flight."
The Annual Convention of the Protest .
ant Episcopal Clmrch of South Carolina, ',
met at St. Philip's Church, on the 13th |
instant, the opening sermon being deliv- t
ered by the Rev. J. B. Campbell of St. r
Phi'lip's, from tlio text, "Breathren, pray o
for us." The Convention assembled the *
next day nt 10 o'clock, when, after the c
opening exercises, a discourse in aid of the
Domestic Missions was delivered by the
Rev. Mr. Van Klicck, the Agent..
The Brigade Review came off oil Wed- n

ous indicated inclement signs, hut in due j I
time the scene changed, the day itsliviiug 1'
forth upon us with the glad sign of the . ft
fairest and balmiest Spring. The Brigade, ^
in the appointed time (1*2 o'clock) arrived
at the parade ground, and were re- .
viewed by his Excellency Governor Adams
who appeared to great advantage in his
richly adorned uniform, ably accompa- p
nied by bis highly honored suite. After
Review and the exercises on the field, tlm
whole brigade closed "en masse." The
Governor then rode up, and in an elo- quent
and brief address, in a modest manner,
gave uterance to the abundance of
his heart, congratulating the h igsde on ^ p
their auspicious display, and also aektiow!- ' K
edging his gratefulness for the responsi- ; J
hie trust to which lie had been elected by
their representatives. In the course of
his reinai ks. he also took occasion to manifest
his approval of maintaining our pre- ^
sent Militia System, (it being attempted j
ai the last Session to aboliidi tltc same)
ho said, in substance upon this |>oim? p
" Is .hero no cloud overshadowing our u
? H

such tranquility of (tencc that wo need j '

said, *In time of |reace prepare for war.'"
M ij. Gen.Sclineirle, and other, officers fol- .
lowed in con.phiiieiiting the event of tl.e
day. After returning from the Washington
Course, the brigade marched to J
their general rendezvous in regimental order.
The 0th Regiment, to which the
Rifle battallion is attached, after being p
formed into line, were addressed by their <>
