Messrs. Smith, Edwards & Co., in their
last monthly circular, dated Liverpool,
January 81, say:
NThe Manchester market was exceeding
ly quiet during the past month, and only a
retail business was done; bnt the heavy en-
gAgements entered into in November and
December have kept it very steady, and we
can hardly say that any serious weakness
haze exhibited wonderful vitality, consid-
ering the procigious shipments made to
them last year. Stocks at the leading en-
trepots have not increased undulY, and
orders still come to hand fraction below
market rates. There is no sign as yet that
the large production of Lancashire has
glutted foreign markets, and appa-
rently good business could again
be done at the level OF prices rul-
ing In November. Cloth, on the
whole, has shown more steadiness than
yarn, which is s good sign; the decline of
the latter from the best points is about ID,
against sd. decline IN cotton, so that the
margin OF the spinner has slightly improved,
and the trade, as a whole, may be pro-
nounced sound and healthy. SpinneTs have
somewhat reduced their stocks of cotton
lately, and do not hold large amount for
this time of the year, nor in proportion to
their ample engagements. Certainly they
have far less cotton than they held at this
time last year In the various forms OF stock
at the mills, arrival contracts, or cost and
freight purchases. For this reason they are
better able to give support to our market
should any fresh start take place In Man
chester. Stocks of goods and yarns hardly
exist, and most good makers are well under
engagement

The Break in the Charleston and
Savannah Railway.

As will be seen by notice elsewhere, ar
engagements have been made for conveying
passengers by the steamer Isis to Purys-
burg, thence connecting with the Charles
ton and Savannah Railway at Vaudeville.
Mr. S. C. Boylston was in the city yester-
day, and informs US that the work at the
trestle is progressing favorablY, although it
was feared FROM the heavy freshet in the
river yesterday that operations would be
interrupted.
All the benches of the trestle except
those under the wrecked cars were placed
in position on Tuesday. The cars were
taken out, and it viii now be a compare
lively easy task to raise the nine hundred
feet OF trestling that was under them
Railroad Commissioner Bonham went
down to the scene of the accident, says the
Charleston Neass and Courier, Thursday
morning, and made a thorough investiga-
ton OF the condition of the trestle and the
causes of the breakdown. In his judg-
ment, the great fault with nearly all the
Southern railroads is that in building the
trestles very little attention is paid to giving
the benches that longitudinal support
which they require. Laterally the sup
ports are very strong, but, running with
the iron, there is nothing to prevent the
occurrence of such catastrophes as the
recent accident on the Savannah Road.

Rev. Thomas Boone.
After the service was concluded, the

was trained for her profession by Mrs. Julia
Melville Snyder, who is al acknowledged
dramatic teacher of the highest merit.
Miss Calhoun appeared successfully as
Juliet, Julia, In the Hunchbaek, and as
Margaret Elmore, in loves Sacrifice. In
each Of these first rate roles she won the
hearty commentator Of people OF critical
taste, and achieved as well q popular tri-

Herrmnnn the Great FTaeIaIan.

The entertainment given at the TheatEe
last evening By Hermann, the celebrated
magician, was undoubtedly, taken all in all,
the best OF It's character ever witnessed in
this city. Ii would be impossible to
enumerate the many new, marvellous and
amusing feats OF legerdemain performed
by the great Hermann, though we may
specially note the cabinet trick aud the
rabbit trick as being unrivalled. They &C.
casiOned the greatest applause, ard afforded
general satisfaction. We can only say that
the entertainment Is well deserving of
patronage, and no one who attends will fail
to acknowledge that he has received more
than the worth OF his money. The ven
triloduial feats OF Professor Yal Vose were
very good and amusing. The LOreilas are
simply unspproachSble In their truly won
derful contortions and unique dances. To
be appreciated, they must be seen. Those
who have not seen Hermann should not
neglect this opportunity II they wish to see
the most skIllful and marvellous magician
Of the present time.

grand matinee, and to morrow night there
will be q complete change Of programme,
