More snow fell last night; wore his India-rubber shoes this morning, and his feet stayed dry; heard the news of the Union victory at Fort Donnelson; the news seems to be hurting cotton sales; stopped by John Cropper's to leave him an extract from Matthew's letter; talked to Mrs. Cropper and Maggie about American affairs; called on Horatio N. Hughes; since he was busy, left him a note that he had received and read Walker's letter to Mr. Hughes; noticed that Fontaine was expecting to get to New York on 16 or 17 [March]; hopes that he and Rutson are both able to do so. 1p.
