The Savannah Daily Herald, BY 8. W. MASON' AND CO. SAVANNAH, TUESDAY. MARCH «. tf*- THE NORTHERN SEWS. There can be no surer index to the true temper of the people than the readiness with which the Gold Market responds to every new word of success from the l nion armies. The quick facility with which that most sen sitive thermometer marks the tiding® and fluctuates in accordance with the style of the intelligence, as it is good for the L nion _or for the Rebel cause, shows that the rash and reckless operatives ot the Gold Room have at last learned tg believe tr. the ultimate success of the l nion anus. to trust the reports of our constantly recurring victories. Time was when the report ot a most splendid victory by our leader? would not affect the Gold Market nearly so much as now does the j news of a comparatively slight successful skirmish. And the reason was that in that former time the hope of actual European in terference, or at least of European re cognition of the Confederate States, added to the belief that the Rebel Amies yet would rally and crush the Uuion col umns, availed to keep up the courage of the Confederates in the field, and their powerful allies in the exchange market. So that, no matter how decided a reverse might befall the lebel army their speculators were too many and too strongly interested on that side, to let the market break. Consequently the price for many months never varied, but just enough to offer a good margin for speculation ou short time bargains. But now that game is up, and the tremen dous tumble in gold announced by the last news from the North, shows that even tho most sanguine among the Confederate specu lators, and those who had the most critical financial interest in keeping up the price of specie have been no longer able to make head against the glorious successes of Sher man, Sheridan, Schofield, Grant & Cos. The Bulls have been compelled to yield, and the Bears have driven them dißcomlited from the field. This last great fall in gold will doubtless be producing many mercantile failures; of the utter ruin of very many brokers and men who lived simply by speculating, and we shall, no doubt, soon hear of the speedy collapse of many fortunes hitherto deemed baaed on a secure foundation, but which have been rashly ventured, aud speedily lost in the vortex of bold speculation. For some of these men there is pity, for others few will sympathize. All true and loyal men will however be gratified to know that gold haa at last lost its fictitious value; or, what is the more cor rect statement of the ease, that the paper currency of the Government has appreciated to nearly its full and fair standard. We may, we think, fairly look forward within a, very short time to a great surprise of this and all other interested nations, in the way of the sudden resumption of specie payments. First Provost Court. —Ye Rcrday the rase of Mary Colston (colored) t«. William Remsliart, was called. It appears from the testimony of Man’, that her unde, when he died in New Orleans, left her in silver and State Bank notes. She wa3 then aged about five years, and is now twenty. On the arrival of Mary and her mother iu Sa vannah, they were puichased by Mr. Rems hart, who sold them after about 18 months. Maty further testified that she counted out and delivered to Remsliart the money, with which he promised to build a house! pointing out the ground for it, which is a lot on Montgomery sheet. Mary's mother tes tified to her having the money, and paying it over to Mr. Remshart. Tom Manning (colored)testified to Mary’s having the money, and leeommended that it be given to Mr. Ik* fpr safe keeping. Tom also tried to borrow some of the funds, but was unsuccessful. Mr. Manning was proven, on the testimony of several old residents to bo very limited in veracity, and it appeared that he had been guilty of many transactions that were not strictly honest. The witnesses for Mr. Rems hart proved fully bis business integrity and honesty in all his transactions. Judge Par sons, after careful investigation of the case, dismissed the complaint against Mr. Rems hart, there not being sufficient, proof to sub stantiate the allegations of the complainant. Second Provost Court.— -The following cases were disposed of yesterday bv Judge Walton: Samuel Rothorff, a marine belong ing to U. S. steamer Pontiac, was arrested Sunday afternoon last by the Police, charged with committing an assault and battery oa the persons of two colored men employed on board steamer Amazon. The Court ordered the defendant to be sent to jail until he l*e tried by a Court Martial: to be fed on ,bread and water every other day for fourteen days, and on the alternate days to work at labor on the entrenchmenta. Henry Smith, a private of the 12th Connec ticut, was charged with being drunk and disorderly on the streets and attempting to strike one of the Police. Defendant plead guilty of being drunk. Ordered, that de fendant he remanded to jail for one month and be placed at work ou the entrenchments, Three citizens for violation of General Or der No 1C were fined $6 each. * “Kangaroos” is the new term applied to bounty-jumpers in Hoosler-dom. J GPEBBILLAISM on the river. A few days since, two men coming down ! the river upon a flat-boat Laden with cotton, upon reaching within two miles of this city, discovered a party of negroes upon the bank, nrnl wishing to make smile inquiries, hailed * them and put in to shore. Upon reach ing the shore the negroes disappeared, but soon returned bringing additions to their numbers. The negroes then suddenly fired upon the men in the flat-boat, wounding the one who has since reached the city; what became of the other he is unable to state, as he lay insensible for hours. Upon regaining his consciousness he found his boat, cotton aud companion gone. The sufferer painfully made his way to the city, when he told his story to the authorities and exhibited his wounds to testify to its truth ; eighteen buck shot were louud lodged in various parts of his body A subscription was immediately set on foot for the relief of the unfortunate man, and Gen. Grover offered every facility for the detection aud arrest of the guerrillas. Mr Browne, Treasury Agent,[has already succeeded iu identifying some of the stoieu cotton, and the audacious offenders will un doubtedly soon be brought to condign pun ishment. The U. S. Transport “ Arago," Henry A. Gadsden commanding—from New York at 4 P. M., Wednesday, March 22, 186 i—with schooner E. R. Bennett in tow—arrived at Hilton Head at 11 A. 51., March 2C. Passengers: Col.

It is expect ed that on Friday a flag of truce steamer from our city will meet at Poor Robin on the upper Savannah river a similar flag of truce from Augusta, Georgia. . Health of Savannah.— We are gratified at the healthy condition of our city at tho present time. The reports of Laurel Grove and Cathedral Cemeteries, from March 21st to March 21th, show a mortality of seventeen persons during this period. A majority of the cases reported are children.’ Our citizens cannot but feel grateful at the excellent sani tary condition of our Forest City. For this condition of health they are chiefly indebted to Capt. Steams and his assistants, who are rapidly placing the city under a good police.

A Small Mormon Rebellion. —Brigham ’V oung reigns in Utah, and will tolerate no rivals among the Latter Day Saints. A few years since a leading Mormon, of the name ot Morris, undertook to get up a schism among the followers of Brigham, and to some extent succeeded. He formed anew settlement in a remote part of the territory, and for a time flourished in rebellion against the “Prophet of the Lord.” Young, how ever, sent a lorce of Mormons to subdue the rebels, and having three pieces of artillery, they succeeded in conquering them. Morris ana several of the head leaders were killed— and, it is said, after they had surrendered. A party of the bolting MojT'tßites, with thirteen wagons, lately arrived in Colorado, having made their escape trom t)vp avenging D{inter. Letter from New York. [from OCR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.] New York, March 22. THE PANIC Last Friday came near being one that in volved the ruin of many peojdc in this city. In the early part of the morning, front ten to eleven o’clock, there was a general impres sion that the day would close over the ruins of hundreds of business houses, but tlie ef forts for reaction were partially successful, and at noon Wall street breathed freer—but the pale faces in that vicinity showed plaiuly how terribly the speculators were scared. It is generally conceded that the crash may oome now at any hour, --and business chan nels show that the utmost caution is being exercised by shrewd and earefnl navigators to avoid the whirlpool towards which many are doubtless drifting. THE NATIONAL CURRENCY, It may not be generally known, is printed on a peculiar paper, the discovery of Dr. Gwynn, and may Ire put in a wash tub aud washed with soap without destroying it. And vet Dr. Gwynn somehow fell under the displeasure of Col. Baker, was arrested, and as Secretary Chase admits, in an unguarded moment, he assented to his imprisonment iu the old Capitol Prison. Here he remained tor months, CoL Baker saying he coulttyrove his charges, in fact that the. Doctor was about to make a confession. It was finally learned that instead of making a confession, he had given Col. Baker an explicit denial, which that officer suppressed. When this became known, the Doctor was released at once, but Baker was not put iu his place. The Doctor was asked to go on with his contract, but being disgusted with the Treasury Depart ment, lie refused to have anything further to do with it personally, and put a couple of re presentatives in hia place. But it appears there is now some hitch, and the Government stand in danger of losing the process by which this paper is manufactured. Whatever the result may be, no one acquainted with the facts, caa doubt Dr. Gwynn has suffered terribly and most unjnstly at the hands of Col. Baker. THE DIFFERENCE in the quotations of Government stocks in the money markets of London and San Francisco is exciting a little attention. In both cities all business is transacted upon a gold, oi specie, basis. In London, where iu money circles we are not supposed to have any friends, and where we do not. lay claim to any friendship from the cent-per-cent En glish aristocracy, the price of greenbacks is at the rate ot fifty-three and a half cents on the dollar. In San Francisco, a city of our own Union, built by American energy, labor and enterprise, supposed to contain at least a reasonable number of patriots, and where the “ old flag ’’ is often apostrophised as the emblem of our greatness and nationality, the quotation of greenbacks is but forty-eight cents on the dollar! It is rather funny that Johnny Bull is willing to pay more for American paper money than our own citi zens on the Pacific coast, the latter of whom have been so persistently urging upon Con gress the great advantages to accrue to the prosperity of the cities and States beyond the Rocky Mountains by the passage of the Pacific Railroad bill. Even the Jews in Wall street, in this city, pay more for green backs than the brokers of San Francisco. It would not be a b ad speculation to buy greenbacks at San Francisco and send them to London, where, it appears, our enemies consider our currency worth more than onr own citizens of the Golden Gate City. nice things, in tbe way ot perquisites, are attached to abont all positions of preferment in and about this city. Any one would think, at a curso ry glance, that the office of Quarantine Phy sican, was not one of these sinecures. He has to be up frequently a great portion of the night to board steamers arriving from foreign ports, and in many ways his labors are quite arduous, oftontiraes dangerous: But it ap pears that the- pecuniary reward is certainly commensurate with the labor required. the labor, for instance, of vaccinating a whole cargo of emigrants, and the pay therefor, and many a poor hardworking, painstaking, disciple of Galeu, would like to have that of his duties off his hands, for one-half the annual receipts'! The pay allowed by law is fifty cents por head (or arm.) If a ship arrives with one case of varioloid or small pox ou hoard, eveiy passenger must be vaccinated before being allowed to come up to the city —the patient being removed to the Quaran tine Hospital. Few of our emigrant ships arrive without at least one case, when the three to 600 unfortunate fellow-passengers are notified to hare their arms, and are each punctured by the industrious Doc tor? The machine for doiug this is a surgical curiosity, looking like a compromise between an augur-bit and a hand-stamp, like those used by post-office clerks. About two hours is sufficient time to innoculate four hundred passengers, when they are pronounced “all right.” The captain gives the doctor an order on the ship owners for two hundred dollars, and the vessel is furnished with a health certificate! Isn’t that mice thing? No wonder there is quite a scramble for the office, as this is only one of the many ways for increasing the legitimate salary. A gentleman of Hartford, who was some Sirs ago engaged in quarrying the upper iaware river, remembered that while drill ing a rock a disagreeable fluid flowed from the hole, and they bad to plug it up. He is now of the opinion that he then “struck ile,” and he is going out with a party to “pull out th<? plug," AMUSEMENTS. Savannah Theatre. —The announcement of ‘‘Camille’’ for last evening, drew nut a goodly assemblage of the lovers of the drama to the Savannah Theatre. It is safe to say that no one who is familiar with the diffi culties under which the company labors, came away disappointed with the perform ance. Many had feared ihat the great play of Camille, which is so familiar to the pub lic. aud whese principal characters some of the great artists of the day have immortalized, would prove too much for our excellent little company. But such did not appear to be the case. The company seemed to develope its strength, aud to rise equal to the occa sion. The personation of “Armaml” by Mr. Davenport, was an exceedingly powerful one; and Miss Lafoud carried all hearts along with her through the struggles aud the sor rows of the wronged “Camille." Mr. Hern don’s “Gaston” was a finished and agreeable performance,and Mrs. Bcrrel and Mr.Simpson acquitted themselves very creditably, as “Madame Prudence" and “Mon. Duval,"res pectively. The company makes a marked improvement with each performance, aud cannot fail to long continue as profitable to the management as pleasing to the public. The play beiug concluded to the eminent satisfaction of the gratified audience, a most agreeable feature succeeded by way of a concluding entertainment. This part of the programme was not only very agreeable in trinsically, but it was the vehicle for intro ducing to us once again the familiar faces of professional friends we had known only long enough to give them always a hearty welcome, an I to heartily regret them when they suddenly disappeared. We allude to Messrs. Scott, Ryman and How ard, who appeared in one of their character istic entertainments, which have been hither to received with so much favor. That they were heartily welcomed is a matter of course, and their songs, dances, witticisms and eccen tricities were all acceptable and admirable, is, for the twentieth time, a matter of record. They will appear every night this week. The Union Meeting in Savannah. —An in telligent citizen of Savannah gives the Rich mond Examiner some interesting information of the composition and secret history of the “Union” meeting held in Savannah, on Sher man’s occupation of tiie place. Ha said the meeting was controlled by an armed guard, and that Mr. Hartridge attended the meeting without knowing its object. He asserts that there was but one man in the meeting who had any right to assume to represent the views of the people of Savannah ou any sub feet. witkou. special delegation; and that was Dr. Arnold, the Mayoi of the city. Os him a letter from Savannah says: “Arnold is already suffering the bitter pangs of re morse for his contemptible cowardice. He lias not shaved since he degraded himself,nor has he breathed a sober breath ; he goes tot tesing about the streets, and appears to be abandoned to despair." Our informant states that he has always suspected that the main resolution adopted by the meeting, was dictated by Sherman himself. And he is continued in the belief by the remark of Sherman, since published, that no conventions are needed; that the people have only to recognize the authority of the United States, elect members of Con grass, etc.; that they are, in fact, not out of the Union, but only in revolt. It will be readily perceived that this accords perfectly with the leading and most offensive proposi tion embodied in the resolutions of the meet ing referred to. Above we give an extract from the Macon Southern Confederacy. The “intelligent Southern gentleman” shows his ignorance of the whole matter, by saying Dr. Arnold ■ was the only one author ized to act for the city, when by. the report it will be seen that several aldermen were on the committee at the meeting, and as all the aldermen are elected by the people, all can act. The writer of the letter, who seems to have been in Savannah, tells what every one knows to be a positive untruth, as can be shown any day; as to Dr. Arnold, he has not looked so young, so fresh and vigorous for many a year as he does now. Long may he live, aud grow in vigor and strength every year. The meeting wa3 called at the requests the citizens of Savannah, and there were more of them there than there were voters at the last city election. Some of the best men in the city took part in the meeting, and no man took a part who did not do so willingly and knowingly, to say otherwise is to im peach his common sense. As to a guard, great care was taken to let no one from the military service come in, and there was none, not one. The author of the resolutions must feel gratified by the compliment, that a per son of so astute a mind as Gen. Sherman, was its writer; but Gen. Sherman did not know of the meeting or resolutions till after ward. It was a full and free expression of opinion from the people of Savannah, and for which we give them all, yea, every man who gave that full ym, to the resolutions, we give them all honor, and to them it will ever he an honor that they came cheerfully and willingly to amend by their action what had been done to place them wrong before that time. hotel arrivals.
