NORFOLK, Dec. 49, 1865
Yesterday no saes or arrivals here reported
on Change. The outdoor appearanc of bust
ness look lively, and sales were buoyant, quota
tons remaining firm. Gold is at a stand, quoted
at l46H. The Oyster shipping business is very
here, by Fitzgerald & Co., oyster packers, to gil
numerous Western orders, heretofore filled in Bal
timore; this is move in the right direction from
the advantages of this location, and the general
facilities offered for this maratime traffic We
no just reason why our remumeratiye enterprise
should not be more fully encouraged than here
tofore. The timber and wood business also is at
tracing the capitalists, and large shipments are
daily made from our waters to Northern Mar
kets.

ORDINANCES ExpER1MENTs.-Two monster column
biads of the fifteen-inch Rodman pattern, were
shipped from the Navy Yard on yesterday, on
board of the schooner John E. Baily, for Fortress
Monroe ts. Aet ..e
They are tremendous and ugly-looking guns,
though we understand that they were found
to be very serviceable during the recent lamenta-
BILE sectional struggle. Their immense weight,
unwieldy structure and large calibre, however,
renders it impossible for them to be used to ad-
vantage in any other service except siege and
garrison. a
Upon their arrival at the fortress, their perma-
aent strength and durability is to be tested by
board of officers appointed for ibis purpose.

GLENN's THEATRE.-The lovers of the drama
will have another opportunity this evening of see
ing that charming actress, Miss Fanny Price, in
Little Cricket" character in which she is said
to excel. We have not had the pleasure of seeing
her in this character, but we have been assured
by thorough Judge of such matters, that in the
last three acts Of 'Cricket" Miss Price cannot be
excelled if equaled in this country.
With this "merry" actress, and this emery"
play, and these "merry" Christmas times, surely,
reader, you can pass pleasant evening at Genn's
Theatre tonight. aH

The FAIR, which is being..held for the benefit of
the ST. Vincent Hospital in this city, was in full
operation last night. The display of useful and
ornamental articles was quite large, and any one
in search of Christmas gifts might find many
things at the fair to please old and young, and at
the same time be contributing to most praise
worthy object. 1t will continue open for some
days, and we hope our citizens generally will
drop in and aid the good work.

New York AND VIRGINIA STEAMSHIP COMPANY
We may look for the new steamship Saratoga,
just completed for this line in our harbor in few
days, The New York Express, of Saturday,
says:
The New York and Virginia Steamship Compa-
ny's new steamer Saratoga started on a trial trip
down the bay this morning at IL o'clock. This
vessel is a companion to the Niagara. She was
built by D. D. Westervelt, of this city, and her
engines are by the Allaire Works. She is 23l
feet in length, SO feet beam and l5 feet depth of

1xpaovEMENT.-The spirit of improvement in
Norfolk, like unto the spirit of John Brown, is
g still marching on.
We have heretofore recorded the completion of
The very elegant warehouse erected by our public
snirited citizen, Mr. George L. Crow, on Com
rrp,ercial row, and we have also noticed the sub
.tsntial warehouse being built by Messrs. Kim
herIv Bro, on Wide Water st.
Messrs Whitehurst & Co., and Mr.. Daniel have
Zach contributed to the good looks of Wide Water
tract by the erection of two substantial and ele
rsnt warehouses on that thoroughfare, between
Market square and Church street. Messrs. j. c.
nawson & Go. have not built anew ON the same
treet but by the judicious use of paint and
whitewash, and other identifying cosmetics, they
have so thoroughly rejuvinated one of the old
smbstantial warehouses, that it might easily be
mistaken for Tyoung UNI of but five summers.
And Roanoke street, not to be behind in this
Reynolds, Esq, given to our city some three or
four handsome stores, that must command early
tenants, in view Of the very desirable locations
they enjoy. ~. .E. t

determined that she also will welcome the esprit
of Improvement" =
Hence we see the elegant and substantial store
rooms gradually growing into readiness, in the
buildings owned by DR.. VIM. Selden and George
H. Wilson, Esq.
Let this improvement 60 forward. We are GER
tsinly destined to 'increase and multiply" and if
we have but houses to put the people in, when
they come here, they will assuredly come and
stay. ti -'

JEALOUSY AND PUeNAoIrY.-Two negro men ON
the outskirts of our sister city, had quite Sc

blows. Both parties displayed great muscular
power and pugilistic skill. For long time the
result of the contest was doubtful, until finally
the bacon hued boxer, let fly his right into his
snuff colored antagonists mug, which caused the
cldret to flow copiously and the sponge to be
thrown up.
The cause of this recontre, we heard, was owing
to supposed improper intimacy between one OF
these sable fighters and the others better half.
