COLTHEKN lltADK.
The South is evidently waking up commer
cially. It is sialedJ.Va Chicago exchange
that sufficient tonnage could not be obtain
ed on the Mississippi River to move forward
the accumulated Ireight which the two rail
loads running southward lrota Chicago car-
Tied to the river ports. On one day, the
28th alt., 1500 barrels of flour and 117 car
loads or other merchandise were unloaded
from the Illinois Central Ruilroid at Cairo
Meantime, several hundred loaded car,
were on (ide-tracks,',at the diflVrjr.t stations
.north, awaiting opportunity to bo moved
Into Cairo. From that porl alono, the ship
ments of through Ireight averaged ten thoas
and toes wcukly; and the amoaat would
have been largely increased had there been
sufficient tonnage regularly in pert to pre
vent a constant blockade. The loss, by
casualties, of three of the largest river
steamboat?, In part occasioned the luck Of
tonnage, causing great inconvenience and
reduction or proiita alike to the railroad
company and the shippers. For wetk, the
Mobile and Ohio Railroad, running .from
Columbus, Kentucky, to Mobile, Alabama,
was unable to forward the freight destined
lor interior points, and is yet taxed to the
utmost by the continuous influx ot trade.
Flour, oats, bay, bulk meats, agricultural
implements and merchandise were the ar
ticles most largely shipped j and to meet
this demand quite an impetus was given to
manufacturing industry. When, it is re
marked that cash is invariably paid on the
receipt ol the freight at its Southern desti
nation, it will be readily perceived that the
Southern traders are esteemed the bust cus
tomers. Sad AccraENT. A sad accident occurred
oo tbe Kenneusett farm, about half-past
four o'clock yesterday afternoon, which re
sulted In tbo death of a mau named John
Gore. Mr. G. was engineer at one ol tbe
Palmer wells, and when found was dead.
As the engine was stopped, it is supposed
thut soma part of his olotbing becamo en
tangled iu the maobinnry, drawing him In
and winding him around tho shaft. Mr.
Gora was an aged man and very much re
peoted by all with whom he was acquaint
ed. ' Afteuxoon I'KitFoiiuANCB. Perssns llv.

Wallace Sisters will give a grand family
Matinee on Saturday allernoon next, tbe

burlesque of Prince Annabel or lha Educated
Cat, will be performed In all Us magnificence
and splendor, with rioh and costly costumes,
delightful music, &o. Lot nil tbe ladies

The Pennsylvaaia Central Railroad has

Ittferrng f the Oneida calamity, the
iiinion Pout says: "Mr. De Long, it seem
hnd an unequivocal opinion of Ciipt. Eyre's
conduct, stigmatizing it In the court as
murder; end unless somo new light is given
to the whole ufi'alr our Minister's opinion
will be shared by the majority of his coun
trymen. The examination, however, can
hardly elicit any facts capablo of redeeming
the British captain from the charges brought
against him, und our Government must
look to it that his punishment is administer
ed without delay and with severity com
mensurate with the atrocious offense. Mean
while, for the brave anen who found a
watery grave, whose shrieks tor help were
unheeded, and whose death even was kiade
a jest ol by the British captain, there will
be universal mourning; their Dames wil!
be remembered alike with those who have
perished in glorious ights, and their'tueiDo.
ry will be an eternal reproach to the com
mander upon waoie.bcad rests the repoQsi
bility of their destruction."
The comedy cf,;"Caste'' was exceedingly
well rendered by the Wallace Sitters and
cempauy, at Sobel's Opera lloute, last eve
utng. Misses Jennie and Agnes wou new
boaors by the charming manner in which
tbey acted out the characters of Pally and
Esther. Both ol these ladies are not ouly
stars ef the first magnitude in the theatrical
horizon, but are pleasing vocalists. Mr. S.
U. Villa in the cba-acter of Hon. Geo. D'
Alroy bad a fine opportunity of displaying
hit artistic talent. We have seldom wit
nessed tl.e character of a drunkard carried
out la a more laughable. manner than that
of Eccles by.Mr. J. B. Buckley. Miss Sa
bra Desuon as Capt. Haulier, and Mr. J. E.
Webster as Sam. Gerridgo executed those
difficult parts in good stylo. The Highland
fling by the MitsesMinnie and Maud wu'd
be hard to excel.
To-nlgbt will be presented the laughable
comio burlesque entitled, '.-Fra Diavulo; or,
The Beauty and the Brigand." Preceding
the burlesque, Miss Agnes in her great spec-
ray oi "uur L,vi mere be a

An eccentric man "In Nashville, Tenu.,
after leaving all bis property to outsiders,
winds up bis will in ibis way: "Before
any of thesj (bequests shall be performed
there must be erected over my wile and my
st If a nice monument. I have not glvrn
anything to my wife's relations because they
did not visit icy wi( during her sickuees,
nor utter she was dead, and my wife's sister
desired me to send a close carriage fot her
while lirr sls'.e.'my wile,awti dying.
Some people always have an eye to busi
ness, and do what they 'will, or to where
tbey may, the mala chance ' is first and
last In lutir mind. Ol this class is a relia

sincere christian, by tbe by who rocontly

of approval but suddenly it occurred to him

where all kind of dry goods may be obtaiu

The father of DoraboIIa recently found
tbot little girl's chubby hands full of the
blossoms pf a beautiful tea-rote on which bo

said, "didn't I tell yen not to pick one of
those flowers without leavo?" "Yes, papa.'i
said Dorabella, "but all of tbeso bad

It Is said that tbe first mill erected in this

years however, have disappeared.
