The BREMEN STEAMERs.-The Ocean Steam
Navigation Company will resume operations on
Saturday the 22d inst, when the steamer Wash
iDgton will sail for Southampton and Bremen
During the interval, in the sailing of the steamers
Of this line, both the Hermann and Washington
have been thoroughly overhauled put in complete
running condition, and their sailing qualities
much improved. The operations Of the Company
for the past year have been very profitable.
GOING 1T SrRoSo.-The value of the Dry
Goods imported into this port during the month
of January past was 1859, lO8, being more by
some two millions of dollars than the correspond
ing month last year. In addition to this, it is
said that the Atlantic has cargo valued at over
100000, which, in the regular course of events,
would have passed through our Custom. House in
the month of January. This would have made
the total imports full up to sls,OOO,OOO. This
looks like prosperity among our commercial
people but we record the fact with more pain
than pleasure for we have presentment that
when the balance is struck we shall be found
wofully deficient notwithstanding Cotton rules
stiff at l3l.
~ Professor Silliman delivers the first of a
series of lectures upon Geology, at the Spinger
Institute, this evening The subject Of the first
lecture will be "a general view of the Structure
of the Globe and of the powers which have pro.
duced or modified its mineral masses, and arranged
them in the order in which they are found"
Foo AND Enthusiastically dense fog
enveloped the City and Rivers from sunrise until
laae at night, during which large number Of ves
sells inward bound were obliged to come to an
Choir between the City and Narrows. There was
fresh breeze during the afternoon, from the S.W.
to the Sc but it did not have the effect to clear
up the fog. The Transit, one of the South Ferry
boats, after having left her slip, came in contact
with the Nassau, one of the Hamilton.avenue
boats, which damaged both boats considerably.
The WALL ST. FINANcIERING.-The investi.
CATION of the the late defalcation of Ray Temp
kins was resumed yesterday. The testimony
brought out yesterday goes to show the direction
in which the proceeds of Mr.. Tompkins's specula
tons tended. There is great diversity of opinion
as to the final result of this investigation-some
contending that he has done nothing that will
bring him within the reach of the law, while 9th.
ers hold that he in guilty of gross frauds. From
the testimony taken yesterday, we should judge
he had fully secured his relatives and particular
friends against any loss.
THE CHERoKEE.-Our attention has been called
by the owners OF the steamer Cherokee" to an
article which has been going the rounds of the
press relating to the hull of a steamer seen to the
suggested might be one of the Chagres steamers
For the information of those who may have friends
on board the Cherokee" they desire us to
state that she has no mahogany furniture nor
timepiece on a white ground surrounded by gold
stars, such as described. Sailing from New York
at 81 P. M. on the 2sth January, in the ordinary
course of things she could hardly reach Cape
Hatteras before P NJ of the 30th, at which
hour the wreck was seen, and some hours previous
to which the accident must have happened. 1t
does not seem within the scope of possibility that
every vestge OF boats and passengers should dis
appear within forty seven hours after the steamer
had left New-York if she had met with misfor
tune The position of the wreck as described in
the article referred to, is altogether out of the
track of the Chagres steamers, as they would en-
ter the Gulf north or of Cape Hatteras, and if
blown up or wrecked in the Gulf would drift to
the eastward. The "America" was left near
Cape Hatteras and inside the Gulf, and might
have been drifted by counter current to the
southwark where the wreck was seen.
HERR KRAUZs's CoNcERT.-Tripler Hall was
two.thirds filed by an intelligent audience on
Saturday night last, on the occasion of Herr
Krauzs's concert. The novelty and variety o.
Herr KS vocal performances surprised all pres.
ent. They were fully equal to the promises Of
the programme. The second part of the enter
tsinment consisted of selection of thirty songs
in as many different languages and dialects !
Herr Krauzs has an agreeable voice, whose ex-
traordinary compass is not its only good quality
while in the dramatic sense necessary to give
each national melody It's peculiar character, he
excels. We trust he will soon repeat this novel
and interesting entertainment.
