MANCHESTER CLOTH MARKET.
Advance In Price of Cotton Has Pro-
 voked Various Opinions.

Manchester, January 1s.-The cloth market showed a strong tone in several directions last week. Quotations in most quarters were mostly higher. Important business has been executed lately and sellers are more independent. The ad- vance in the price of cotton has provoked different opinions regarding the imme- diate result some persons maintaining 1t has checked business while others de- clare it has brought business out In some directions much buying has result ed from necessity or panic, others are resisting the higher rates and prefer to wait. Many offers were inpracticable. A good inquiry prevails, however, and considerable business has transpired in all descriptions of the China staples. The Calcutta turnover improved and the smaller outlets are healthy.
 Yarns improved on inquiry and the turnover was fairly satisfactory.

BRILLIANT MUSIC AT ST. PAurs
Weber's Mass in G Sung Better Than
 Ever Before.

Webers celebrated mass in G was sung at St. Paul's church yesterday and the choir, under the direction of Phil Memoli fairly surpassed itself Never, perhaps, was this work anything like so we'll rem dered in Birmingham before. The chorus was evenly balanced, and in attack and intonation was beyond criticism.
 Mrs. Putnam was the solo soprano. She has pure lyric voice, especially adapted to colorature music.
 This mass of Weber's is as a whole more operatic than churchly, but the "Et Incarnatus Est" In the credo is very re- ligious, and so, too, Is the sanctus. It is difficult to sing on account of its excep- tionally high range, but the principals and chorus sang 1t like professionals.
 Mrs. Putnams cadenzas were marves of beauty; her high As were as true as her easier notes and her sustained G in the 'Incarnatus'' was singularly artistic achievement.
 Oliver Chalifoux played as a violin solo a tender little prayer
