On the subject of public baths, much attention is given to their im ce as a hygienic measure, and such establishments recommended for adoption in this city.

THE BEST THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE SO far ‘of the present theatrical season was that of SI ‘3 great tragedy of “Othello,” at ‘pera House last night.

After our telegraphic report of the Udder- z00k trial closed yesterday, Mrs. Annie Rhodes, sister of Udderzook, testified that the accused came tosee her husband, and had an interview with him in the woods. Samuel P. W. Rhodes then testitied to the conversation bad with Udderzook. The pris- oner asked him if he had a horse and wagon that would hold three persons. Witness s that he had not, but could get one. The pr oner said we could make £1,000 each; we could get $200 right off, and he would guarantee $100 anyhow. He said there was aman who was | drinking and spending money for no good pur- pose; he had the er’? two or three times since he had been with him; that the man had $1,000. He wanted me to hitch up and go right to Jennersville, get the man im, take him to tke woods, give him landanum, put him to sleep, and take his mone: he committed the crime and all his family. He said, “111 not go home till T get it.’ He would do the stealing, but spoke as it he wanted me to bury the money. If 1 could have nothing to do with it he would do it himself and bury the money. I told him not (o do s0, but to stay a day or two and I woujd talk tohim. He said the man would not stay at Jenneraville by himself, and if he stayed he would have to bring the man there. He said | the man was sick, and asked how it would be if | he should die at my place. ‘Would you allow | me to put him away and say nothing about it?” | I said ‘No, there would have to be a coroner's | inquest.” He said there was nobody to look | atter the man; that he bad been lost for along | time, and everybody thought him dead. He | then left, and I never saw him again till I saw | him here. ‘The court adjourned till morning.

On Sunday afternoon Mra. Udderzook bad an interview with ber husband in his cell. pong this interview the conver- sation became o loud in the cell as to attract the attention of the keepers, and it is thought of parties outside. Underkeeper Keuben Mer- | eer went to the cell, which was closed, He did | not hear the prisoner say anything, but Mrs. Udderzook said: ‘Mr. Whitney has had an in- terview with ma,and Minnie pressed them closer, closer, and closer; then the conversa- tion became so low he could not hear; but again she said: “Don't you admit anything. If 1 | have to lose you, God knows I don't want to lose them, too.” This was all the conversation he heard. New York Day Goons Marker. York Bulletin of yesterday says:—The gloom which overcast the trade in the latter part of last week has been measurably dispelled, and confidence is slowly returning. “The market for cotton is is still unsettied. Staple goods are nominally firm in first hands at the recently re- duced prices, but there are yet some brande of sheetings, shirtings, &c., which have not par- ticipated in the decline, the reduction of which | will be necessary in order to equalize values. | Woolen goods are inactive. The movement in spring weights of cassimeres, &c., is retarded by e stringency of the money market, which re- strains clothing manufacturers from com- mencing operations, and the trade in these oods will probably open later than usual. loths, dark cassimeres and overcoatings are very sluggish in first hands, and transactions are restricted to lots which are offered at job prices. Colored wool flannels continue in mod- erate jobbing request for small quantities, but blankets aré quiet, colder weather being needed to give an impetus to their distribution. Ho- siery is quiet in first hands, and but lightly dealt in by the jobbers. General dullness per- vades the market for imported fabrics, caused hed backwardness of the retail movement, which exists in all quarters. Plain cloth-col- ored dress fabrics are relatively more active than any other description of is. Black silks of the finer grades are held at nom- ly firm prices, but inferior qualities of both black and colored silks are selling at very low rates.
