MANCHESTER NEwa.

Your Manchester reporter, while cross
ing the bridge yesterday afternoon, had his
attention arrested by party Of jolly stone
cutters who were evidently "ris sxing' one
of their number about trick he had played
upon one of his comrades during the war.
Upon inquiry an old story was told in
new guise, which will certainly bear repeti-
ton. "You see, sir,' said our courteous
informant, "Patsey was chief Of mess OF
seven, and drew all their rations for them.
At Spotsyivania whiskey rations were
issued, but not drop did Patsey's mess
see. He was hauled up by the captain, and
acknowledged that he had received the ra-
tions, and had drank them"
"Why did you drink them?" asked the
Captain.
"Because was Obliged" Captain.
"Obliged! How?"
"Because me own ration was at the bot
tim, and sure couldn't get at il wsdout
goin' through the ithers."
A hearty laugh ensued, in which tac ge-
nial Patsey joined as heartily as any OF the
rest.

TIE TEMPERANCE MEET1NG.-The public
meeting held under the auspices OF Spring
field Division, Sons of Temperance, at
Leigh.Sreet Baptist church last night, was
attended by highly-intelligent and appre-
ciative audience; and we'll were they re-
warded for their presence in the utterances
OF the Rev. A. w. Weddell and Professor
Mofatt. The latter gentleman, who has al
ready won celebrity in other States as an
expounder temperance principles, showed
himself pleasing orator.
Music was furnished by the Leigh-Street
Church choir. 1t was excellent, and very
appropriate to the occasion.
The meeting was presided over by a. A.
Atkinson, Jr., Grand Worthy Patriarch OF
the State OF Virginia.

church, made a few remarks, and promised
to make speech some other time.

POLICE COURT, YEsTERDAY-Police-Jus-
lice Joseph j. White presiding. Jesse
Spain (coloredD was sent on to the grand
Jury OF the Hastings Court to answer for
stealing one silver watch from Lewis Pleas
ants (coIored). Spain snatched the watch
from Pleasants's hands and ran off with it.
Sheppard Hubbard (colored), charged
with breaking and entering the Old Do
minon Sugar Refinery on the night OF the
sth, was sent on the grand jury for indict-
ment. The chief evidence against him now
is that OF Sylvestus Douglas, the man who
was caught on the premises by the police,
and who states that Hubbard employed him
to go to theirefinery to bring away some
lead, for which he was to receive 30 cents.
Hubbard has given several conflicting sto-
ries as to his whereabouts on the night in
question. He surrendered himself when
he heard that the police were hunting for
him.
Calvin Russell. (colored), charged with
being vagrant, was required to give Sc
curity in the sum OF $500; and in default
thereof he was sent to jail for thirty days.

PERsoNAL.-In the House proceedings
of Wednesday the resolutions credited to
Mr.. Massey were presented by Mr.. Dunn.

THE RT.-Notwithstanding other at
fractions the thirty-tifth musicale given by
the Mozart Association last evening was
attended by Il fine audience, and proved
success in every respect. The orchestra was
full and unusually efficient in its execution
OF several pleasing selections. The over
lures OF .' Scmiramide " and EZRA Diavolo'
We're admirably given, and evinced great
care and study OF the part of the orchestra.
Miss Wyatt made her second appearance
last evening, and delighted her audience
with the finished manner in which she sang
the difficult solo, " Fleur deS Alps" Her
voice was rich and full, and yet, witha),
sweet and flexible. She won well-de-
served applause, and received several floral
testimonials of appreciation.
Miss Mira's piano solo, "Rhapsodie Har-
groise," was very fine indeed, and was con-
sidered by many the gem Of the evening.
Mr.. Cardoza's rendition OF "Happy Mo-
ments" was quito good. He possesses
powerful bass voice. but it needs cultiva-
ton. He should look to it.
The trio Of Mcssrs. kessnich, Thilow, and
Reinhardt was finished performance;
while the violin solo Of Mr.. Kessnich-" La
Petit Tambour"--was very fine. He played
with great expression and ease.

TIE ICE BIOCKADE-MOvEMENT OF STEAM
ERs.-The steamship Wyanoke. OF the Old
Dominion line, arrived here from New
York ut 4:30 2. NJ. yesterday. She reports
the ice in the river still very heavy. The
first ice met with was at White Shoals, and
from there all the way UP to Richmond
found navigation exceedingly difficult.
From Hog Island to City Point and at
Seven-NIile Reach the heaviest ice was met
with, and in some of the sharp bends of the
river the ship found it almost an impossi-
biity to get through, and at some OF these
places the only way she could force a
passage was by backing off and
then going forward with full speed,
cutting the ice with her sharp prov.
The Wyanoke left Norfolk Wednesday
night at II O'Clock, thus taking fifteen and
half hours to make trip which she usually
makes in nine. She reports no vessels in
the river, but large number in Hampton
Roads, among which are two barks, two
brigs, and number of schooners, bound to
Richmond. The Wyanoke will sail on her
return trip to-day, and will receive freight
up to 12 o'clock.
The Philadelphia steamer Alliance, which
has been ice-bound here for week, will
probably follow in the wake OF the Wya-
noke.
The channel which has been thus made
should by all means be kept open, and the
city will probably put its tugs to work for
that purpose. The ice embargo, which has
to some extent paraIyzed our business, has
thrown hundreds out Of employment, and
the opening of navigation will be OF incal-
cuiable benefit to the city.

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY LAST NIGHT.-Last
night about 9 O'Clock bold but unsuccess-
ful attempt to rob the residence OF Mr.. w.
w. Tribbett, corner of Leigh and Fifth
streets, was made by two negro men who,
it is said, were seen lettering in the imme-
diate vicinity during the day by 4 colorcd
woman residing OH the premises. 1t seems
that the thieves had silently entered the
house and sccretcd themselves while the
family were ut supper; after which they
commenced ransacking the upper part OF
the house, coming down through the hall
way, and were making of with their booty
when the alarm was given and they ran
through the backway, knocking down the
cook, and made their escape, previous to
the arrival of Sergeant Seal and Policeman
Clinely, who had been sent for.

MACBETH-A SPLENDID AUDIENCE AND
FINE PERFORMANCE.-The dress-circle last
night was packed full, and the orchestra
and parquette very fairly crowded. The
audience looked more brilliant than usual
from the fact OF many people being
in evening dress. The scene which
closes the second act was grandly
acted and elected round OF applause;
the somnambulst scene in the fourth act
was equally fine and impressive, the by
play, as usual with Madame Janauschek,
being wonderfully telling; the ghostly
figures OF the remorse-stricken Queen steal
ing through the dim corridors and arches Is
as expressive as the broken and heart-rend-
ing words; the sighs which she utters
as she handles her loose hair and gazeS
desparingly on the blood-stained hands
are thrilling and awful. This impersona-
ton of Lady Macbeth is far above any we
have ever seen, and il any fault can be found
with the supporting actors it Is apt to be
overlooked when the eye and mind are filled
with such grand figure.
Mary Stuart will be repeated to-nigh ut with
every chance Of n Hne audience, Judging
from its effect on Wednesday.
At the matinee On Saturday Chesney
Void will be played. It Is a discreer selec-
ton, and will please the public in all re-
sDectS, .t t1.s.s--&ss- y f~t4s

A SHOCKING AFFAR-A CHILD EATEN
BY HoG.-Last week hog eat up child
of Ananias Green (colored), OF Belltown,
Charles City county. He was ont at work,
and left his wife and child, nine months
old, in the cabin. His wife got cold and
went off after wood, leaving the child in
the house with piece OF bread in its hand
to keep it from fretting. An old sow which
had free access to the cabin went in, and
when the old woman returned she found
that the SOW had eaten all the child but the
head and left arm. 1t is supposed that the
animal first ate the bread from the child's
hand, and in doing SO bit the hand, bring
ing blood, and the taste Of the blood made

INCENDIARY FIRE IN CHARLES CITY COUS-
TY.-Thc house of Mr.. 3. j. Haynes, about
fifteen miles below Charles City Courthouse,
was set on fire and burned down, together
with several out-houses, Friday night or
early Saturday morning. Only few articles
of furniture were saved, the family barely
having time to leave the building. Mr..
Haynes estimates his loss at about $1,000,
on which there was no insurance. The fire
was undoubtedly the work OF an incendiary,
the dwelling having been fired in four diff
ferent places. A man named Baker, who
lives in the neignborhood, is believed by
Mr.. Haynes to be the party who did the
burning. He and Baker were not on very
good terms, and since the fire it has trans
pired that Baker had made threats that he
meant to do Haynes some harm. A warrant
was issued for the arrest Of Baker by a
magistrate of the county, but we were una
BILE to learn whether or not he had been ar
rested.
