A Fizzu.—The skating season of 186M may be'eet down'sa a lamentable fizzle, there having'been bht three or four days of ekatlng dnrlng the entire winter, Somebody must have snffered terribly.

Uost of this supply still remains on hand, the mllilneas of the season deranging the entlie- bnalnees, and preventing any sort of demand for akales. liiose gentle- men who pdd heavy snms for the privilege of selling refresh- ments, eto,, on onr skating ponds, must be great snfTerers; for there has been lltUe or no dianee to dispose of their commodi- ties.
