Mrs. YELvERroN's readings last night was
well attended-the hall being full, without be-
ing crowded. Among those present we noted
His Honor the Mayor, DR.. W. Gilmore Simms,
goodIy representation Of the military, as well
large number Of private civilians. or Mrs.
Yelverton's readings it is needless to speak,
after oil that Las been said on the subject.
'Annabel Leo" We liked best last night. We
do not recollec. ever to have heard poem read
with more soul-the reader moro entirely in
accord with the poet, than was the case here.
THE Attack OH Rome" by Byron, Was also
much admired. Mrs. Yelvertons greatest
charm undoubtedly is in the great compass and
the rich and clear modulation Of her voice,
every note Of which is sweetest music.
We hope Mrs. Y, encouraged by her success
last night, will consent to favor us soon with
another evenings reading.

REPAIRING SHRs.-The admirable facilities
which most large seaports now possess for the
repair of vessels Of all classes is quite in con-
trast with the more inconvenient modes some
times used. The ship James A. Wright,
which lately had the misfortune to stop on
the shoals of Charleston Bar, was got off in a
condition which required considerable repairs.
To perform the work with the greatest facility
it would be necessary to have dry dock, but,
unfortunately, the one left us by the war is too
small to accommodate 30 large a ship as the
wright" It will be, therefore, requiredito
resor. to the old plan Of heaviog down, and we
are pleased to say that some Of our mechanics
have agreed to undertake the work, and that
this fiue ship will soon be placed in order for
the reception Of freight.
