Tho winter thus fur hus been a hard one, and the weather for the pnst 10 days thc coldest felt in many years. The ground lins boon covered with snow since Christmas morning, and thc thermometer below freez ing point nearly the whole time. On the night of the 28th and morning of thc 20th six inches of snow fell, mid on the night following wc had tho coldest simp experi enced in this latitude in 25 or -TO years, and many say since tho cold Saturday in Feb ruary, 1835. The thermometer registered 0 degrees below zero on the morning of thc 30th and 3 on thc morning of thc 31st, and ninny of the running streams were fro7.en entirely over.

Thc snow of the 20th hud molted very little up to the 1st instant, when another fell, and on Sunday morning it was eight inches deep. Since then it has been somewhat warmer, though it is still bitter cold, and even with big fires it is difficult to keep comfortable. How long thc cold spell will lust is n matter now that everybody in general, and those whose supply of wood is short in particular, is in terested in. Death or Col. John Martin. Col. John Martin, one of the oldest and most prominent citizens of this County. died at his residence in Martin township ein last Wednesday, after a lingering illness of seven"' months. Col. Martin was born on the i. day of September, 1703, within half a milo of the place ho resided at the lime of his death. He received only a limited English education, but was natu I rally a man of strong mind and excellent judgment. He possessed great mechanical in genuity, and could do anything in this line, although he never pursued it. As a young niau he was very fond of hunting sports and in thom became famous as one of the finest marksmen that this section has ever produced. Ho fought through the war of 1812 in Capt. Thompson's Comimny, and is believed to have been thc ??si survivor of its members. Ho was a very popular man, and was very successful in elections. In 1832 bc was chosen a member of thc Legislature from this County. In 1830 he was elected Ordi nary, and in 1846 and 1851 was elected Sheriff of thc County. He always took great interest in thc militia, and beginning as Captain of the Boar Creek Company he became Major of the First Battalion and after".ards Colonel of thc old Fourth Regi ment, which position he held for many years. After the wnr; when tho Commissioners were laying tho County ol? into township? \ they nameil tho one in which he residen, .Ma'rim, for him. Col. Martin was always an active, benevolent, sociable man, and no one ever had warmer personal friends than he. He was upright and honorable in all of the transactions of lifo, and hence was respected by nil who knew him. His re mains were interred on Thursday in Ebe nezer. Church-yard. A Letter from Allillinna. JACKSONVILLE, ALA., Dec. 22, 1KS0. Miter Intelligencer : Please find enclosed $1.50, rcnewnl of my subscription to your nailer. Xlthoch rn? destinies have long been cast with tho people of this section o; the Couth, and I have raised a family on tho soil of Alabama, I yet have not lost my love r.ir ?dd South Carolina or interest in her affairs. Thc Countv that I livo In (Calhoun) is known as oiie of thc hill counties of the State, or North Alabama, a contradistin guished from tho "block belt," or what is known as tho cotton belt, or South Ala bama. Though wc do not live in the cot ton belt proper, wc have a good countiy for cotton, our best lands yielding as high as a halo to thc acre, and our second best as much as holf a br.le to tho acre. Our aver age yield of corn ls twenty bushels per acre. Sonic of our best bottom lands bring ns high as sixty bushels per aero. Clover, small grain and tho grasses do well. In fae?, this is a natural stock raising country, and ought to bo to the cotton belt of Ala bania wdiat Tennessee and Kentucky is ?o thc South. Thc country is splendidly watered, and there is no lack of power for machinery, and if capital were but directed in this direction it would be a fine manu facturing country ns well. We already have ono mani moth cotton fuctory thal will commence operations about tho middle of March, and the erection of another is to begin immediately. Thc mineral wealth of thc country is untold. East of us but thirty miles are rich copper and gold mines. West of us nbout thc samo distance are ex tensive and inexhaustible coal fields. Here wo have thc finest Iron ore to bc found In thc South, including tho rare and valuable ore known as sncigel oro. In short, the possibilities of this county aro beyond cal culation. Iron works abound along the lino of railroad that runs through this county, th:; Woodstock Iron Company of this county being ono of thc finest In the South. Politically we are all right both os to State and County. Both aro solidly Dem ocratic. Tho white population lu this part of thc State nrc largely in thc ascendancy, and we have good otliccrs, as will always bc Clio case where there is a virtuous and intel ligent constituency behind them. Pardon tho length of this letter. I thought that perhaps a sketch of this coun try hiight interest sonic of your readers. Respectfully, ROBT. C. UAYMS. UNBElt TBK SNOW. DY JOHN II. UOXfcB.
