Our exchanges speak Of recent and seasonable
rains in the interior, and the weather being ine the
prospect for abundant crops was never known to be
better. .. s8s8s 8
We have at length the pleasure Of Announcing a,
rise in Trinity river, which, with reporting further
rains, gives Us good prospects for steamboat nayigt-
tion in few days and we look for increased receipts
of cotton soon. The steamer Magnolia, which has
been in the river for several weeks waiting rise, has
been enabled to get to the mouth with SIT bales part
of which has been delivered by the DR.. Smth-the
Magnolia Immediately returning-and the steamers j.
Fl. Bell and Grapeshot have left here for the mouth
the latter with about 5000 barrels freight, to ascend
if possible. a .4g &
Accounts from the interior continue favorable for
early planting, and many planters have already
finished their preparations for corn. O. &
CoTToN.-The small supply has been lttls, in
creased by the arrival noticed above, and with fur
ther favorable adyices from New Orleans, the market
has stifened, and We advance our quotations Arri-
walls via Houston and Harrisonburg are scattering
small lots, which sell fast offered. Good qua-
ties are more scarce and in better demand than
ordinary. sN sg r.

The spring season gives indications Of its approach
in the neighborhood of Austin. The State Times
says: ~.
Appearances indicate the ushesing in of this de-
lightful season of the year. The grass is growing
rapidly. Peach trees are in bloom, and vegetation
is progressing. -,---g..-,
Many of the farmers of this county have done plant
ng--others nearly so. The lands are generally well
prepared, being deeply ploughed and in good order
otherwise. We are looking for good crop year.
The Nueces Valley publishes letter from Loredo

It. is only right that you should warn your Corpus

Indians in that region recently beyond stealing mules
and horses.

CE1sp's GAIErY.-Mr. Anderson and Miss Els
worthy tonight appear in their great play of Cloud
and Sunshine, or Loves Revenge play which has
for some time been in rehearsal at the Gaiety, and
which will beproduced with all the scenic accessories
of that elegant establshment-splendid new scenes,
costumes and properties having been gotten up ex-
pressly for it. The play appears to be modelled
after The Corsican Brothers, for we perceive that
Mr.. Anderson is to enact the part of twin brothers
in it. Miss Durand and Messrs. Davdge and Lyster
will afterward appear in the vaudeville Of " The
Swiss Cottage"

MADAME LA GRASGE.-Ths most talented vocalist
gave her second concert at Odd Fellows Hall on
Saturday night. The hall was again crowded with
brilliant and appreciatve audience whose delight and
applause amounted to perfect furore.
If Madame La Grange is not perfect singer We
are unable to discover the fact. She sings with such
ease that the music appears to flow from her, if we
may express it, perfect cataract Of natural melo
dy. Her assistants, Madame seidenburg and Signor
Taanei, came in fofa full share Of the appreciation
Of Saturday nights audience. Taken al! through,
Madame La Oranges concerts are musical treats of
the very highest order of excellence. -s.
Tonight the third concert will take place. The
programme sparkles with sweet things. Among
the!pieces to be sung by Madame La Grange is the
grand aria from the Magic Flute" This alone will
be worth more than the price of ticket-for in il
Mime La Grange will show the marvellous powers o
her voice to their full extent On this occasion, Herr
Braun, the famous yiooncellist, will perform severa
of his choicest solos. All needful particulars may bt
derived from the advertisement under our amuse
| ment head.

BLOWN UP.-Two loafers in North Adams, Mass.
seated themselves, one Sunday recently, upon keg
of powder, which they rolled from the cellar-way Of
store, to gaze ct the ladies passing to church. They
were smoking cigars and by some means a sparf
ignited the powder, and both were blown to con
siderable distance. One was dangerously wounded.

Mr.. NEAFIE-This fine actor and accomplished
gentleman appeared at the St. Charles theater on
Saturday night to crowded house, for his benefit.
The engagement just closed has been very successful
one that Mr.. Neafie may justly feel proud Of. He
leaves tomorrow afternoon for Memphis, where we
bespeak for him an impartial hearing, such as his
merits entitle him to. ~ -&n.
We have before expressed opinion Of his claims
as an artist Of the highest order, and we need only
add that the more we have seen Of his performances,
the more firmly are convinced that at this time he
has no superior in the higher ranks Of the legitimate
drama. Faults he has, it is true but they only seem
to make more clear the beauty Of his general define
ations. He possesses fine, commanding person, q
rich clear melodous voice, which, with genius and
application, have placed him in position that COM
mands the respect and admiration of all thinking

MARsHs JUVENILE CoMEDIANs.-Radical changes
have been made in the Amphitheater, with almost
magical CELEBRITY for the reception of this famous
dramatic troupe of Juveniles rejecting great credit
upon the energy and enterprise of Messrs Spalding
& Rogers. As theater, it bids fair to be no less
popular than it was circus. Carpenters paint
ers, upholsterers and paperers have thronged the
building night and day since Friday, and the work
almost of month accomplished in three days. The
entire scenery painted last fall for this theater,
by the well known artist, W. Bouet renders it in ap
pearance as unlike circus possible. The par
quette has been raised, and thus the only objection
urged against the theater removed The dress circle
and family circle have both been refurnished with ele
giant Boston armchairs, and the grade of the lat
ter place has been changed and as one is now fac
simile of the other, there is henceforth choice
between the two parts of the house.
The little actors were expected last night on the
Empire City, and are probably here this morning.
They will make their first bows and courteses before
a Southern audience tomorrow night. From the
bonndless enthusiasm they have produced wherever
| they have been, and from the brilliant reputation
which has preceded them here, we may anticipate
several weeks excitement at the Amphitheater.

ASSOCIATE JuDGE.-We have reason to believe that
the friends OF Judge james l.. Cole intend to place
his name before the voters Of the Second Supreme
Court District, as candidate to fill the Vacancy
which will soon occur on the Supreme bench. Judge
Cole has received the universal praise of citizens
for the expeditions manner with which the business
of his court has been transacted The upartalisy
of his decisions, very uery few of which the Supreme
Court have thought lit To reverse. We hope he will
permit his name to be used in this connection.
[Honma Ceres 25th ult
We were told by legal gentleman the other day
that ont of the fartyfive appeals to the Supreme
Court from Judge Coles district the past year. forty
of his decisions sustained by that trinnal two
reversed because of different construction Of
facts, two on law points, and sent back for
trial. This is cersanly creditable record, and
Of which any Judge III an interior court might well
be proud,
